I think that it should maybe look a bit more like this:

I added three new features to the launcher:
  • Custom resolution: Start the game with any resolution you want (there are a few glitches with resolutions other than 1280x720 at the moment).
  • Fullscreen: Start the game in full screen mode (has glitches with resolutions other than 1280x720).
  • Info window: Shows important informations like controls, commands, etc.

@Spektor: I found these glitches:
  • Shields and weapons are not rendered correctly at 1920x1000.
  • Screens of weapons control, weapon, door control, sensors and bridge --> systems are not rendered correctly at 1920x1000.
  • Ship editor at 1280x1024.

Well like I said window resizing is broken atm.
I have it on my own TODO list, but for later.
I would preffer if you'd remove that feature from the launcher untill I finish resizing.
Otherwise new people might start the game in a wrong resolution and get dissapointed from the start.

I have already finished adding the F1 screen with controls and chat commands, it will be in the next release.
But I suppose that it won't hurt if there's another one in the launcer, just don't forget to add in later version the info about the F1 help screen.

There's alot more, but again, it's not expected to work right now. :)

Removed the resolution options from the launcher. The resolution is automatically reverted to 1280x720 in case somebody has set something else. The fullscreen option remains because it uses the the same resolution as windowed.

I liked having 1280x1024 as my resolution. :| :cry:

kcd.Spektor should fix the resizing as fast as possible! I will add it to my launcher as soon as kcd.Spektor decides to support it officially.

I did a kernel update which needed a restart. And because the database was stored in /tmp, it was deleted automatically. I tried to restore the files but I was unable to get the filenames back (and a few files were completely lost).

If you have lost something and want it back, please reply with as many details as possible.

I joined the server yesterday and now I can't log in. I can connect to the server but when I enter my username and password, it won't let me in. I have checked I am entering the right things. my username is Lukas Bastonne if that helps.
