A few general questions and observations:

I take it leveling isn't implemented? I have 1432 / 100 experience and am level 0. Not a big deal, just making sure this is expected behaviour.

If you close the simulator reward window without claiming the rewards, do you still receive them? The first few times I didn't recognize they were clickable.

On a different note, is the stat gain from simulator combat randomised or am I just too silly to figure out why sometimes I get Charisma and other times Intelligence?

I found it odd that dueling Ayra in the simulator calls for a Strength check when I've never received a Strength gain from using it.

- Yeah, level up isn't in yet. On my list of things to do.
- The rewards from simulators are somewhat randomized, depending on who you're practicing with.
- In general I use STR checks both for physical strength (in combat, for example), and for mental ferocity (in the simulator, or if there's ever something like a staredown).

CHA could also work here. Don't remember too many CHA checks at the moment. But we are pretty early.

Anyway, I'm a little vague in this one what stats do outside of checks. I assume STR is damage, don't know for INT in this, CHA in the past games was companion ability recharge but not sure what it does in this.
To be fair, I haven't played it much since the combat is pretty early stuff at the moment.

I did a quick writeup for the Wiki. Still lots to do on this, both on the tactical combat and on gameplay elements like levelling up, etc.

So do the stats not have much impact outside of checks at the moment? I'm not seeing it described on the wiki.

The pilot game is broken. Enemies will eventually go beyond the edges of the scalable map and stay there. Untouchable. Undefeatable. De facto failure. And this minigame is mandatory. Every single time I was winning...this BS. I'll watch the patch notes. I look forward to owning this one day on steam, when it is actually playable.

Is it intended you can run races while in FTL? Because you can.
Which day? Looking at it, the act II version shouldn't allow it during the day 33->38 sequence. I hadn't added guards for the opening of Act III yet, though. Fixed.

I just checked in game because I don't think Droid properly answered this question and your answer is yes. If you close the simulator without clicking on the individual rewards first you still get them...all three stats(+1 Piloting, random +1 skill stat, and the XP) are still applied.

Running my second playthrough and found a spelling/grammar error:

Second visit to the greenhouse. "You will find alters..." should be "You will find altars..."

Spelling/grammar error:

Day 36, getting kaff for Cass: "...wincing at the scolding..." should be "...wincing at the scalding..."

Yeah, this ended up being a rabbit hole to fall into :)

Jade joins the crew on day 42, and has already become one of my favorites. Originally she was meant to be one of the 3 wingmates, but she ended up visually too close to Arya (both almond eyed / asian features, dark hair, fringe), so she got replaced by Astrid. Which is fine, now I have TWO hotties instead of one :)

cant see the pics, but if Astrid become Molly for me its not ideal.
as well as too much Molly in general ( although its more about personality), as for Molly is not a char for legioneer brute
