Sorry 'khaan, I meant to mention that I ended up turning down the pirates (from "Normal" to "Few) after a couple false starts. Otherwise, they admittedly can be a bit much in the beginning.
Which race are you playing, by the way? My current campaign is as the Kiadans -- I do like my research-heavy factions.![]()
One thing I've discovered that bothers me: Unless a base/station is at a colony, they currently cannot upgrade/retrofit to a newer design. Sounds like this will likely be addressed -- not in the pending 1.03 patch due next week, but in the 1.04 patch due after that -- but until then, any type of space station located away from a colony (i.e. mining stations, research stations, tourist stations, etc.) cannot be retrofitted/upgraded.
