Ok i get what you guys are saying about the blueprints.xml file but i tried to change one of the things that i thought was max power and it broke the game. I had to delete and reinstall it and re-mod my game. Is there a youtube video or something as a guide?

Blueprints is very sensitive to typos. Any typo and the game will crash. Don't edit your only files otherwise you will be reinstalling quite a lot. Backup the resources folder and if the game breaks, restore it.

Speedoflight, I'm probably going to add an events.xml to erase all asteroids.

lol, that is a bit forced, its curious that only happens when u are in a very far sector. That bug didnt start happening to me until i reached sector 5 or something like that. I did plenty of asteroids battles before that and all worked fine. Anyways, waiting for that "patch" the fact is while asteroids fields are a bit more challenging, all the enemys that u encounter in asteroid fields are very weak, so there is no real point in keep the asteroids fields.

Wait until you find out about the weapon bug.... *sharkgrin*
Watch out for a zergrush boarding party. Tho the trend this is going, you probably won't see it.
Let's just say that if you want lvl5 shields, you want a Zoltan Shield or the Scanner to go with it. You cannot get around this without shooting yourself in the foot, because as it was earlier explained - you cannot patch up a bug that is "expected behaviour" by accounting for a "bug" induced by unexpected behaviour.
And try not to have more than 5 active guns.
