Debugging=Arghhh

Oh boy... looks like this is going to take a while.
Suddenly Prospector decides to just dissapear, now and then.
Of course the kinda vague nature of the bug doesn't make finding it easy.

Ahhh, i will prevail. I hope.

How do I use Rovers?

If you got a rover, just (d)rop them on a planet, and collect them, and their map data later. But while propably being the savest way to collect map data, it is also the way that pays the least amount of money. Second is scanning, and nothing beats actuall boots in the mud for map data prices.

How do i make the sound effects stop looping?

As of now (0.1.8a) there are 2 buggy soundfiles Weap_3.wav and Wormhole.wav
If you load them in any sound editing software and cut off the end & beginning they stop looping. I've actually already did that (obviously) and been wondering if i should just put the healthy files somewhere, and if so, where...

Is this thing on?

What is this? ... right, i made this ages ago, and never bothered to actually blog something.
So, how could we use this?
We could try and make it a first stop for questions directed at me. There seem to be a lot of them. For example "Why do the sound effects loop?" or "How do i use Rovers"
It would also be possible to talk a little about how soon one can expect a slightly less buggy next release. Ok. Lets do that
