Turn times are considerably longer after turn 50, for some reason. My pre-patch game turn times at around 150 were 60 seconds, and with this patch, it gets to 80 seconds after turn 70 with a smaller map.

It looks like everyone has this problem.

Since last patch the game freezes about 50% of the time when entering combat. (its freezing right after i click the button to start combat at the pre-combat screen, it's just staying on that screen...)

First post btw, hello

Edit:i patched when my game was about on turn 50...not sure if that has anything to do with it, but i thought id mention it since others have problems at that stage of the game...

Its just a question of "when will we get a patch to fix the patch that fixed the patch?" lol

I wonder if anybody else have the same problem locating the station retrofitting scroll bar? Ive been dying to have the option to finally weaponize my navalstations!

There is a station retrofit scroll bar? That should answer that question!

For me, it is not just the station refit, i am unable to add any modules to my stations! I can place over a million credits worth of module upgrades per turn, but they all promptly cancel at the start of the new turn. Any module that is finished fails to attach to the station. Both the station management screen and actual station model confirm the fact that none of my stations have, or ever had modules. Ergo, I am unable to upgrade stations or support my fleets. Anyone got any tips?

I just posted on that module thing in the wrong place. me too, by the way, when i pay
for modules they are cancelled but the money is gone. also my beginning naval station
(SolForce) has no modules.
