Well, it turns out that the last two parts for the Cloaking and Time devices in the game are unfindable because they don't show up on the radar by default. :mad: Also, after actually getting the time device, it wasn't mapped to the right key! The game has my minus and slash keys mixed up.
There is a support topic that fixes this on the game's site:

They said they'd fix it in the next patch, but apparently they forgot. You just have to edit the files in the game directory yourself.
So this adds to my list of major complaints about this game. I signed up for this forum just for this, so I'm gonna whine and list them! :p
Terrible documentation. I forgave this initially, thinking that the devs wanted us to learn as we went.
No apparent benefit to leveling up. In fact, prices of certain items seems to go up with level without increasing in effectiveness. :confused:
Player leveling seems very slow. At 25 hours in, I'm still at level 6, but enemy ships in the random quests I'm doing are level 30. With enemy ships, the level goes pretty well with how many upgrades they have on their ship. This is probably good, though, since I probably wouldn't be able to afford anything if I was level 30. :rolleyes:
Difficulty of the main quest stays pretty even for the whole game. The first few missions are amazingly difficult with the weak ship you start with, but are too easy once upgraded. This forced me to roam around doing random side quests for a dozen hours to get tough enough to breeze through the main quest all at once. I had forgotten what was going on by the time I got back to it.
Main side quest doesn't work without editing a couple files, as mentioned above. Of all the quests, this is the one that *should* work!
