Fixes and common problems

Decide whether the game is broken or whether a rule is doing what the patch notes describe. Update 3.0 and Update 2.0 both published long fix lists. The pages below start from the symptom, not from the patch number.

• Will not start, or a graphics change locked you out: launch page.
• Stutter, blue flicker, freeze on close: performance page.
• Save button dead or the folder looks empty: save location.
• Volcano on Cinis stays quiet: volcano page, check the setting first.
• Clay pit stuck at 0 percent: clay pit page.
• Ship upkeep ignores Neptune: Neptune page.
• A trainer stopped working after a patch: the wand page, which explains version drift and does not link a download.

If a mod is involved, the mod mismatch dialog in 3.0 names the files. That path is the mods-not-working page, not this index.
