Newgame-Endgame?

[ImmortalChaotic]

As with all previous updates, my old characters were deleted when i downloaded the new one. I tried using a backup of my characters to see if it was still compatible and the game didn't start so i uninstalled and reinstalled. Now with my new character, everything is perfectly fine. Except for one thing:
The 4 NPC's you unlock during the story are already sitting at the Ark and all of the stones except for the glitch and human ones are in the gate. It's as if the game already counts me having done most of the entire story, except i still have a T1 ship and i still have to do the upcoming quests.
This doesn't neccesarily bother me, i'm just wondering if it's supposed to happen or not.

your character and universe is 2 thing.
you could unlock all npc with a character then creat a new one and he see all of them in the ark. but he still need to do the quest to advance

This is true, in order to restart, you have to reset the current state of the Outpost and the state of universe.

In chat, type: /admin

Then, type: /resetuniverseflags

Then, type: /admin to exit "cheat" mode.

Basically, what the command /resetuniverseflags does is that it reset any progress that happen within the universe, plus the outpost. Useful for starting all over again!

One thing: /resetuniverseflags does not reset planets. If you want to reset planets as well, the fastest way to do that is to go into the game's files and delete the universe folder (however, considering how unlikely it is to accidentally stumble across a planet you visited with another character, this shouldn't be necessary). If you do delete the universe folder, you will not need to use /resetuniverseflags.
