Two annoying problems with Starfury!

[Omicron]

Some weapons affect engines, I have been in battles and been almost stopped dead because enemy ships had Ionic Dispersers on them.

[it depends]

Apart from the engine disruptors, i went through a cloud which also slowed me. I don't know if i was near the edge, or if certain nebulae do that, but i have had it happen.

Taz, in game hit the 'G' key to show the grid. The symptoms you describe for #2 may be your ship has left the grid. aim your ship inward and you will eventually return to real space.

If you were not out of bounds, try lowering the 'Stelar Detail' in the game options. Those nebulae can severly slow the game when in high detail. Even on fast systems.

I hope this helps.

Cheers!

P.S. as for the CD speed Demon, Aaron has addressed this in the latest beta patch. He is planning to get the 'Official Patch' out by the end of this week.

Or you can make a copy of the Starfury CD and run the game off the copy. That's what I did and the vibration is gone now.
