You can build a base on anyone's planet. No restrictions. Most people will probably not even know you built one on their planet. A lot of times it is convenient to do so, so that you can cash in your minerals.

It means the planet no longer has an anomaly associated with it.

That's normal behavior. When you approach a planet a rare random event happens to decide if the planet has an anomaly.  If you leave the planet and go too far away it will re-randomize when you approach the planet again so it is likely the 2nd random event will change the outcome.

They're not really secret. They are stars with numbers that have a meaning, for example if you're a fan of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy then star #00042 will mean something to you. The first one to find a secret star owns it and gets credit for finding it. There are a total of 100 secret stars in the universe.

That is awesome! And yes the game includes warp speed technology.

No change. They are very rare.

Sometimes there's a hiccup on the server but it usually corrects itself after a bit. These issues are usually out of my control.

There should be a trophy icon (Android, PC, MAC) or Game Center icon (iOS). Tap that to pull up the leaderboard.

I do not have a Facebook page but feel free to start one

Sounds like you found a planet with an anomaly. You get full credit for the SETI signal once you scan a planet that has the signal source but an anomaly is a physical object on the planet surface (not necessarily a SETI planet). You have to use your gauges to pinpoint it. One gauge shows how in front of you it is and the other gauge shows you how on top of it you are. It's best to fly and get roughly in the right area and then land and find it.

Points are used to rank you on the leaderboards.

Go to COMPUTER then select BASES then at the top you can list bases by MY BASES or ALL BASES. Then tap on any base to plot a course to it.

Pitch, Yaw and Roll

when you plot a course the location will be marked.. just rotate your ship around until you see the HUD indicator showing the location then fly your ship to it. When you get to the location use your local map to search each star system.

Tap the CURRENT MISSION button and plot a course to the quadrant/sector. Go to each star system in the sector using your local map and scan the planets until you find it. In your local map you can tap a star and plot a course to it. The local map shows only the stars in that sector so one of those star systems will have a planet that is the source of the signal.

Star bases are randomly chosen when the universe is created. You can find them on a map. The star will be a green dot on the map and there will be a star base in the solar system. You can also use the computer to plot a course to the nearest star base.

On PC/Mac/Android to rename your player go to the COMPUTER and you should see an option to Change User Name. If it's not there you may have already named your player previously.

Your discovered stars/planets will be retained but your credits will not carry over. Credits are not saved on the server.

Sell your minerals and discovered habitable planets when you visit starbases.

Hi perhaps in the next version I'll include external ship view. No idea when that will be though.
