Bugs
I just finished game means all 4 endings are watched and 100% achievements and here is my last words.

Game is great, but there are bugs:

- If tutorial is enabled, then pressing question mark (?) when in Techonlogy window will open help window which you then can't close (because toturial limits what player can do, seems closing help window included).
- Pressing ENTER or too fast mouse clicking triangle button during end-game dialogs will cause dialogs instead of disappearing shortly and appearing with new text (normal behavior) to appears shortly with new text and disappears after, unti ENTER is pressed (or mouse clicked).
- Continuing game after break doesn't restore mining/probing depth settings, they are reset to 5.
- Very annoying this one: zoom is not restored when returning to galaxy map, continuous zooming out with mouse wheel is a pain.
- Scrolling (with mouse wheel) in Technology window (when many/all technologies are known) sometimes doesn't work, very annoying to scroll without any effect, feels dumb.
- Splitting item stack twice in row (first time 1:x, second time again 1:x, I wanted to have 2 omegas as result to use them as fuel to be precise) bugs window, it become frozen (visually there are still 1:x stacks, but nothing is clickable), game restart is required.
- Sometimes galaxy map stop reacting on mouse drag/scrolling attempt (probably when trying to do it too early when opening star map), required changing view (e.g. going to system map and back) coupled with reported above zoom bug it's really a disaster.
- Not sure in this one, but I am quite sure I started game on Normal to have increased challenge and I feel it (at least until I got good ship), but when finished game it say "Finished on Easy". WTF?

And some suggestions (if someone reads this):
- give names to system, I HAD TO USE PEN/PAPER to play this sucessfully and I have huge problem to identify systems;
- rather than above, provide us a way to add comments to systems (e.g. I can add rare elements or notes when there are oxygen/hydrogen available [spoil]or info about anomalies[/spoil]);
- rather than above, do it automatically: any visited system should display all information I gathered (e.g. by visiting planets inside it) - how many planets, which resources I mined, etc. Radar thingie only shows some of useful info (e.g. no elements are shown), but it can appears too late or is not affordable for low-space ships.

I can use pen and paper, but it's very uncomfortable currently.

- make it clear what choosing ending will FINISH game, I don't know how, maybe if tutorial enabled? Or as a warning message given when visiting bloody Green system for the first time. Because that green ending is the worst thing you ever could do to the player. It's like if someone started Mass Effect 3 and when visit second planet (out of how many there are?) and choosing some option in dialog it just say "Game Over" and shows cinematic where Sheppard is angry and alone flying away.. LOL

Great game for few evenings otherwise. Really enjoy it.

These would be very helpful features.

Hi, I've only recently begun encoutering issues with the mouse scroll wheel not working. It doesn't function in the map mode or in technology windows. The latter is a game-killer because I can't grab and drag the scroll bar, either. All worked fine until about a week ago.

I've tried rolling back my mouse's drivers, but it has no effect.

Any tips/tricks to get this to work?
