Inspired by Starflight:
100 years ago Terrans were driven from their homeworld by an unknown alien race. The Guardian Starship 'Void of Darkness' was the evacuation fleet's only escort. Upon deploying a prototype weapon against their pursuers, the ship vanished without a trace and the evacuation fleet was catapulted across the universe.
Now with the aid of an enigmatic alien race known as the 'Eurians', The Terran refugees have rebuilt their society and launched a new fleet of Starships.
Take command of your ship and crew. Trade, explore, survive and engage. You must discover what happened to the starship 'Void of Darkness' before a new threat seals Terran fates forever,
Featuring:
Explore, trade, upgrade your ship and survive the war.

no update? nothing?..
The game seems not to have any audio on 64bit linux, it does not create a pulseaudio source.
The problem is that it dose not seems to be using pulse audio, Is there a workaround for this?
Tried padsp, pasuspender and LD_PRELOAD:ing the 32bit version of libpulsedsp.so, but non of those worked.
I get an access violation at random times, it seems.
A fix for certain targeting issues while in tactical. Clicking on ship icons would be difficult to target ships once you were at maximum sensor resolution (zoomed fully out).
