Hello Lochar,
Sorry to hear that you're running into these bugs in 0.4.5.
We're constantly fixing and improving the game and have just put out a new build. If these bugs still persist with the 0.4.6 version, please get in touch so we can chase them down and fix them.
We're definitely looking at how to best introduce players to the game. It's a very different game from most so there are a bunch of novel concepts for the player to get a handle on before being able to play it fully.
Thanks you for helping us better Astrobase Command.
