That's how you get free warp travel (at the cost of increasing chaos levels). Same works for repair depots.
If you use the station screen to choose the destination, it should work for you. (Unless it's encountering the bug that Tom R mentioned)

I hope mining gets added in the future. Some kind of laser weapon that turns asteroids into scrap (call it "Ore" or something). It would be nice to have a way to earn cash without getting into fights or going on random missions. Or maybe mining could be a type of mission. I've mentioned elsewhere wh...

Opting out of missions is not always a good idea. When you are just starting out and low on cash, those early missions used to be fairly easy and a good way to get some credits (Investigate the Intrepid, or the crashed Roland, for example). By the time you are ready to opt out and start exploring, y...

To tag onto this thought, at least make sure that nothing in the early game takes you over there. On my most recent restart, one of the first CU missions I picked up happened to be placed right in the middle of infected space. I still haven't completed that mission because I cannot get in without fl...

for now it’s just a massive damage-dealing nuke that can be sold for quite a lot of credits. Own a massive super nuke or sell for lots of credits...I'm not sure this helps my decision at all! Can I sell it, and then somehow sneak in at night and steal it back? (BTW, I appreciate your increased invo...

Anyone know if Project Megaton (the apparently massive nuke found on a certain train on a certain ice planet) is worth keeping? Or what it's for?
The credits I can sell it for are burning a hole in my hull.

Would it be possible for the pilot to line up the warp gate once a destination has been set? I figure it would be the same process as entering a repair depot, just with the extra step of waiting for a destination to be entered. Maybe it could be added as an AI command. IF warp gate is activated, fly...

As someone who mostly plays single player, this is a very frustrating process. The bots will not activate a jump on their own, it always has to be me. Since I like flying, I have to exit the pilot screen, walk over to the engineer and hit jump myself. It's annoying at best but don't even get me star...

I've noticed similar things to what you've mentioned. I don't know if a "Community Liaison" is necessarily the answer as I tend to think that is something the mods *should* have been doing anyway, but this forum does need a little more TLC than what it's getting. Re: the mods, this is something I ha...

Thanks! I just sent you the save file. If I recall, I saved it after heading back to my ship and retrieving the key.
