Dammit I get to work and find there is an update waiting to be played. Now I have to wait 8 hrs before I can immerse myself!

Copying your profile data:

On your windows machine, go to (Steam Install)/steamapps/common/FTL Faster Than Light/user

And put "prof.sav" on a USB or something.

On your Mac, after running the game once, put "prof.sav" into ~/Library/Application Support/FasterThanLight/.

If you can't find your Library folder, it's because on Lion it's defaulted to hidden. Open a Terminal and enter:

chflags nohidden ~/Library/

That's pretty cool! I noticed the game did track that I had won one time (#2 in my Top 5), so I was curious as to whether it wouldn't be able to give me my hard-earned achievement ;)

Neat! Heck, you even have been tracking "Total Victories", should make it super easy!

Is FTL likely to have Steam cloud save functionality? I don't fancy unlocking ships again when I get home to my main computer...

We intend to try at least. Should probably not be too hard...
If you're having hull problems, I feel bad for you son. I've got 99 problems but a breach ain't one.

Sweet!

Btw, Leto missiles descriptions just reads "The weakest" alongside its corresponding stats.

It's too hard now :(

Or I'm just having really bad luck. In sector 1 I bumped into a ship that had a guy teleport over I've only ever seen that in sector 3 and beyond.
