The first time i played this game i had it installed on a different hard drive. It was great then. But when i got a new hard drive stuff started to miss from the game. These are the things that no longer exist in my newly installed version:
I cant build sensors on starbases.
I cant rotate extra pieces or anything i add to a ship of a hull, sometimes i end up with a two left shoes look cause i cant rotate stuff.
When i right click on the blue ship construction notification it dosnt automatically launch the ship.
When i try to sell ships or anything else for money or influence points it will not let me press enter and type in the amount i want...very annoying when something is worth 15000 IP and 1 centimeter of the IP bar jumps to 50000.
When i design a custom ship and upgrade the design i end up having multiple versions on the quick drop down menu in construction. I.E. I make a ship named predator, upgraded it 4 times and saved over the old builds but when i goto the drop down i see the old ship version underneath the new one i actually want to select. This creates an unnecessarily large list of ships when in reality i only have 8 different classes.

As far as i know i did not patch the game the first time because i lost my serial number. I just want to know where these things went because playing the game without them is proving to be unbearably annoying.
