Hi,
I made a lot of progress without saving my game but then I lost my lander, I was able to buy a new lander with the last of my money but when I try to land on a planet's surface I am unable to do so (I get the same sound you would get if you have no landers) even though I can see the lander below my ship's name.

So the question is: Any way I can solve this without loading my last saved game and losing all the progress I have made?

Thanks in advance,
Og

[EDIT]
Forgot to mention I'm using 0.6

I haven't seen this before, and I don't know what's causing this, so I don't know any work-arounds. If you attach a post-bug savegame to your bug report I may be able to tell you more.

Note that you can't land on gas giants and slave shielded worlds.

Yes, I am quite aware of that, after all, I have finished this game more times than I can remember ;)

I have filed the bug and have attached a saved game as you have suggested, here is the link:

Although I already loaded a previous save and attained the same status as before, so no need to rush.

By the way, this is a good chance to give my thanks to the UQM staff and contributors, your work is much appreciated, and although I haven't tried it yet netplay sounds really sweet :)

Regards,
Og

Uh... You did notice that you can't send a lander down without crew to put in it, didn't you?

hmmm, I didn't notice I had no crew left... Odd, I could've sworn I had full crew minutes away from that save :-\.
I feel really stupid right now, sorry for wasting your time :-[.
