Bugs

The following list of bugs/incorrect behavior is known to exist in the current build. Below that is a list of bugs that are known and have been fixed for the next build.

Please report any bugs you encounter that haven't been noted here either via. the Drifter Backer Forums or via email to contact@celsiusgs.com.

Known Unfixed Bugs

• Drifter does not have very good support for full screen on Retina MacBooks. Until this can be fixed, please try setting the game's resolution in such a way that the window takes up most of the screen.
• Full screen mode on some systems does not correctly register the position of mouse clicks. This appears to be caused by a mismatch between the game's set screen aspect ratio and the screen's aspect ratio.

Fixed Bugs

0.6.0

• Slipstream FoV is now preserved when the game is paused
• Starmap course is now cleared on restart
• Afterburner no longer stuck on after undocking if it was active during docking
• Added undocking cooldown timer to prevent instant re*docking from an interrupted undocking sequence
• Adjusted internal data representation in the Ship Market system to be more useful
• Fixed a bug where module attributes would not be properly set
