Another huge Starbound [Official Site, GOG, Steam] update is now live! Spacefarer as the name might suggest brings a large focus to what you can do in space.
Highlights
Many things were added and overhaul in this absolutely stormer of an update. The cockpit navigation from your ships now has Planets, Moons and Ships all visible and they orbit in real time. There's also now NPC stations, friendly and hostile NPC ships, and strange space anomalies to visit.
Customizable mechs! What would space be without cool mech units to travel around in? They can also be deployed on planets if you need a bit of extra firepower.
You can now own your own space station, yes really. They are modular, so you can customize them to fit your needs.
This might well bring me back to it. It sounds incredibly exciting. See the full changelog here. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

I bought it during the initial hype and was kind of disappointed with it. I thought at one point that the devs abandoned it but it is good to be proven wrong ^_^

In same boat, last time I played it was during early access. I might have to dust it off and find a local group to play with for some fun.
I like it went developers commit and follow through with updating their games beyond expectations like this, so many games on my steam list from EA are getting like a minor update every few months, real pathetic. Or abandoned.
Sure developers need money, start a new exciting project if you must but don't abandon previous games and leave them incomplete!

Haven't played my copy of Starbound in ages. I think it's time to change that. ^_^

Liam, have you tried the update yet? I just bought it but it crashes immediately for me on Arch, so I'm curious as to whether you're seeing the same thing.

Liam went back to Ubuntu (he got pissed off on Arch for the openssl thing i think)
I have Arch , just started Starbound , loaded an old save and still works like a charm.

The crash issue is something quite a few linux users have reported (myself included), @razing32, would you mind posting your runtime log for from a launch and exit of the game. So I can quickly compare it to one which crashes to see if there are any obvious discrepancies between the two?
Peace!

Fantastic, it should be under /steamapps/common/Starbound/storage and the file should just be called "starbound.log" (assuming you're using Steam). It would be great if you could open and close the game before fetching the log file. Oh, and make sure it's running the 1.3 update. Thanks in advance!

Here you go.
Hope I got it right :
