Update #45: Interstellar Rover
Anyone trying to play the main storyline at the Faen court since the release of Update #44 has found it to be a jumble. A bug slipped through testing in the last update which has now been fixed with Update #45. If you're new to the game and tried the story, we apologize for the fact that it made no since as of Tuesday. Please give it another shot now and enjoy some political intrigue!
With Update #45, we're rolling out a heavily requested feature. The map and orbit screen now remember your current landing zone. You are no longer charged fuel, and Talents and Traits no longer run when you return to that landing zone. Therefore, you can pop out to the map and back again without incurring cost in time, Talents or fuel. Of course, if you land on a different zone, perform an orbital operation or move in space you've left the zone and must complete a full landing again.
Two new ships have launched from the starports across the galaxy. The Hammerhead Jammer is a heavily armored combat hull designed to soak up mass like a 6K mass ship but fuels and flies like a 5K mass. The Cautela Titan is a sprawling heavy cargo ship with ultra heavy Hyperwarp Drive and massive fuel tanks to extend its range. Both modern hulls are built tough to take a beating in battle and survive. As new ships come out, we've been training the AI to use other ships in more intelligent ways. Both the Paladin Cruiser and Strikecruiser have received newly trained enemy AI for a certain set of professions.
New Passenger Suites have been added to help personal-transport captains move more passengers with less components. The medium size component opens up some new options and the new Luxury Suites models also can increase Shielding and Armor.
Contact connection visibility has been highly improved, allowing you to see both out-going and incoming connections. The connection display also now includes a known indicator, letting you quickly see which Contacts you know in the links. We've also fixed the links between Calagan Faen and Aetaan Char -- they now correctly hate each other!
Your ship combat logs now include defeat and victory conditions (which can be viewed from the victory/defeat/draw screens). This allows you to see exactly why you won or lost. In addition, we've improved the Ship Combat Logs so that they do not get wiped after a boarding battle. Now your log persists between multiple boardings and allows you to keep the common thread.
- New 5000 Mass Ship: "Hammerhead Jammer" - New 9000 Mass Ship: "Cautela Titan" - Free relanding in Zone after using orbital screen or map (no Fuel, Turns, Encounters, etc) - New Trained enemy AI for Paladin Defender (Military Officer, Bounty Hunter, Pirate) - New Trained enemy AI for Strikecruiser ships (Spy, Explorer, Smuggler) - Synchronized HUD and Filters for low Health and low Morale - Reduced time and cost to repair Hull damage on the ship - Improved Contact Connection lists by showing both directions (to/from) - Added "Contact is Known" icon to Contact Connection lists - New Ship Component: Passenger Suites: Medium Size, Holds 2x Passengers - Buffed Luxury Cabin and Luxury Suites: Minor Armor and Shielding Boosts - Fixed issues with Calagan Faen's court skipping dialogs - Corrected hatred links between Calagan Faen and Aetaan Char for new games - Ship Combat Log persists between rounds of boarding - Ship Combat Log now includes causes of victory or defeat - Improved Crew Combat Pistol animations - 18 new crew barks from Twitch chat (thx y'all)

Update #45 is a wrecker and is packed full of new content, fixes, heavily requested features and delicious spiced things of all kinds. Two new powerhouse ships are coming off the production line and the first ship to crack the 9,000 Mass barrier has now arrived -- the Cautela Titan. Now, relanding on the same zone is now free -- check the map with impunity! And the Faen court works again, sorry the story was broken for 3 days! It is time Captain -- download the latest update and sail the galaxy today!
Thanks to all of our Captains who are sharing the game and leaving reviews!

First there was the Exodus – when survivors of a great war left the ruins of the Galactic Core behind in search of a new home in the stars. Scattered worlds were claimed on the fringe of the galaxy. Each pocket of survivors held on to their isolated set of worlds while trying to rebuild under the great law of Shalun. Three centuries later, technology has brought them back together again. Discovery of the hyperwarp has bridged what was once unimaginable distances between far-flung colonies, long-lost families, and political factions.
With that reunification has come great economic prosperity. The hyperwarp reestablished the transportation of cargo, goods, and technologies between the quadrants – but it has also brought great strife. Political rivalries have been rekindled, blood has been shed in age-old feuds, and the fires of war have been stoked. Amidst the political infighting, a ruthless revolution is rising – and the fervent explorers of the hyperwarp have awoken something that was better left asleep.
Great conflict is a time of great opportunity. For you, an aspiring Star Trader Captain who has just been given your charter, now is the time to capitalize on that opportunity.

Our very first game, Star Traders RPG, took hundreds of thousands of gamers on an interstellar adventure. The success of Star Traders and its overwhelming positive reception helped to launch Trese Brothers Games. It was the adventures of our community’s star-crossed captains that put us on a trajectory to share more of our worlds, ideas, and dreams through digital games.
We set out to capture the loneliness, bravery, and camaraderie of people living together in a spaceship sailing across the stars. It’s time to take the helm and breathe life into the these stories, characters, and stars.
It is with great pride that after the release of four other games in the Star Traders universe, we’ve created a sequel to the original Star Traders RPG. We reached out to our fan base of Star Traders Captains with our latest KickStarter campaign and pitched our ambitious plan for an all-new open world sci-fi RPG.
Step onto the bridge of your starship, take to the stars, and create your own story in Star Traders: Frontiers. Instead of being our first foray, we have brought all of the knowledge and experience to our latest and by far most ambitious project.
- Explore a rich, open universe: Discover endless procedurally-generated galactic maps, meet unique characters, and take on enemies to conquer the galaxy!
- Become an intergalactic captain: Take on the role of a spy, smuggler, explorer, pirate, merchant, bounty hunter, and more (21 jobs total)!
- Customize your own spaceship: Choose from more than 300 upgrades and build your very own vessel to venture across the vast reaches of space.
- Assemble and tailor a loyal crew: Assign talents and equip specialized gear for every spaceship crew member.
- Experience an ever-changing narrative: Decide to make friends or foes with other factions and influence political, economic, and personal vendettas.
