³ Have you played the game much?  I am curious if you've noticed some minor
³ issues with the screen being cleared before messages are readable.  An
³ example: in case of a mutiny, I have to look in the log to see what happened.

I have noticed it also.  I wondered if it had something to do with the
"speed up" solution offered in the documentation -- the SET OUTBUFF=ON
parameter that is added to the BAT file before the game starts.
 
Without it, it was so slow here it was almost unplayable.  However, with it
turned on, some of those messages do fly by.  Only way I figured out I was
getting mutinied during each move was that I noticed my crew member number
going down to 0.  ;)
 
Also, slightly off-topic, but I figured out another one of the BUCK.CFG
settings.  Line 9 is the number of turns (I am guessing per day).  It was
set at default to 15.  I increased it to 25.
