You don't appear to have the racial abilities addon installed, and the characters magically deleting was an unavoidable side effect of some necessary updates to fix a bug where energy would never regenerate and you could never take damage. The nothing on your ship thing, now that I can't explain.

Edit: Although maybe it has something to do with racially appropriate ship backgrounds? Only one I can think of.

Not really a bug, but...

At the bottom, one of the thrusters is out of place. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks.

By the way, this is the tier 8 ship.

Just so you know last I knew you had not updated the description text for the Dragon flag. It was showing the same text as the human flag last I knew. Don't know if you fixed that yet or not.

I just upgraded the ship to the third level and tried to beam back up to it, and the character is stuck in infinite loading now. Going to remake on a difference race and see if it's an issue with my mod load out in general, but figured I'd post anyways.

Try restoring your shipworld.bak file.

The Tier 5+ shipupgrade is bugged after it crashed my char 2 times (sending me to the infinte teleporter Loop) i tried to upgrade it with the console command directly Tier 3-4 is working fine, Tier 5 get´s the game stuck in a loading Loop, the outlines of the new rooms are visible but all other textures (like walls) were missing, also all Animations started to flicker and I wasn´t able to remove any blocks (they got destroyed and where collectable but got directly respawned), when I try to tp down or reload the game I get send back into a loading loop.

I know that, but I was solving the problem of "help I can't do anything." Fixing this bug entirely is up to the author.

How do I do that?
Also, my game is messing up at tier 3 as well... is anyone having issues with tier 4, or is it just tier 3 and 5?

I dunno. You do that by figuring out which name your character has in the files (if it is the top of the in-game list, then it will be the top sorted by last date changed) and you find the shipworld.bak file with that name. Whenever you start a session, a shipworld.bak file is made of your current ship. If you haven't started it again since you upgraded, the .bak should be fine, but I would copy+paste the .bak.1, .2, and .3 files somewhere else just in case, so they can't be overwritten if the original bak file has problems.

Where on my computer are those files stored? I've looked everywhere I can think of to look, but I couldn't find them.

First find your steam folder (drive it's on/program files (x86)/steam) and go to steamapps/common/starbound/storage/player. The files are there. I would recommend making a shortcut to the common folder, as it can be useful in general when dealing with games.
