Hawawaa,
Your video drivers are almost a year old.  Please check nvidia.com for driver updates.  This will help us to make sure that it is not your hardware causing any problems.

We have found the source of the invislbe ships problem and are working on a solution. 

If your space miner is not improving asteroids after it has built on them, please make sure you have researched the appropriate Space Mining technology.  In order to upgrade your mining  bases you need to research those techs.  If you are unable to mine an unmined asteroid field or you have the Space Mining techs, but cannot upgrade your base, please let us know.

Also, your miners will only mine the asteroid field upon entering the asteroid field if the asteroid field is the ship's destination.  For example, if you select the miner and right-click an asteroid field, the miner will begin building the base when it gets to the asteroid field.  If you select the miner and right-click to tell it to go somewhere and it passes through an asteroid field on its way, it will not automatically start building a mining base there.

We are looking into the "talking with dread lords" problem.
