Useful links and information
This game has been in development for quite a while, and has a result a lot of information percolated over time. Most of it can be found on the game's wiki[github.com].

The wiki is also the place where you may find the manual[github.com] and a decent sized FAQ[github.com].

The project's source code can be found on Github[github.com].

Overall, Naev is an open source project and depend on the contributions of the community to keep on getting upgraded. Due to that nature, it is non-profit by default and none of the maintainers or developers earn anything from this project but your love and respect. Anyone and anybody can contribute to the project, and if you were to find yourself interested you will be able to find the relevant information in the "development" section of the wiki. You do not need to be a code guru to contribute anything, as naev also requires artists, story writers and quest meisters. All it takes to be a successful contributor is an investment of time and effort.

We offer development builds through Steam. To update to the latest nightly build, go into the game's properties in the Library view, go to the betas tab and select the nightly branch. Do note that development builds are considered less stable than the official release.

If you run into bugs you the best place to post them is the issue tracker[github.com] on Github. Posting there does require a Github account, however, so if you don't have one posting here on Steam is also okay.

Most of the game contributors are directly available on Discord[discord.com].

You can reveal the full map in-game with a cheat. Open the console with F2 and type
player.addOutfit("Ultra Map")

Is it possible to increase the scale of the UI?
Additionally, is it possible to force the use of bitmap fonts?
Other sorts of fonts are too blurry for me.
BTAxis  [developer] Jul 21, 2017 @ 10:10am 
Yes, the UI can be scaled by passing the -X n command line parameter to the binary, where n is the scale factor. Font support isn't in the current version, though it is in the development version.

How do you refuel? Can you do it with the Lua Console? I can't figure out how to

Refueling happens automatically at most planets and stations.

If you need more fuel because you are stuck in a system with No landing strip, you can use your coms ( target ship - press Y *default) and request to buy some fuel from them. Or you can disable hostile ships then steal their fuel from a successfull boarding action.

Spoilers.............





I am stuck at a point where I have completed the delivery missions and I need to start the collective missions but the omega outpost is locked and i cant bribe my way in even though im at 30% standing for both the empire and the Dvared. I have done all the "space bar quests" that i could find but I still dont have access. There was one instance that i was hailed by a vessel and given a location to go to later but i cant remember where to go. If you guys have any advice please let me know.
Otherwise great game...

Do you think you might add multiplayer to the game? I think that would be a ton of fun.
BTAxis  [developer] Sep 13, 2017 @ 2:34am 
Unlikely. The game was not built with that in mind.
Piggy's Wife Sep 16, 2017 @ 10:13pm 
Was your game inspired by escape velocity? (an old game)
BTAxis  [developer] Sep 17, 2017 @ 3:48am 
Absolutely.
BTAxis  [developer] Sep 30, 2017 @ 12:38pm 
You can edit your save file and delete the relevant missions from your completed missions list, you'll (probably) be able to do them again.
