One question about the shrine ship:
According to the entry in the Bootypaedia it should contain at least one church reverend. But I got one or two church matrons instead. Has something gone wrong?

There are currently two crew loadouts for the shrine, only one has reverend. The entry was written when that was not the case.

I can now build a slave robot. What is it good for? Like normal slaves (Income and storage)?

[Ethereal_Medic]

Yes. It's a pretty good slave robot if you have too much junk around or need the tiny little more space in your other bases.

Once you have an army of slaves, you can salvage your vaults.
A base can exist even without vaults as long as those bases have slaves in them. They can 'hold' the items for you and every tile is worth money/living space later on.

Ah, ok, good to know!

Is there any possibility to see, how many bullet a ammo-clip has? I mean, aside from going into the inventory screen. In the Bootypaedia, there is nothing about it. I looked into "anal" too.

[legionof1]

up in the top right of the anal screen for a weapon(that has ammo) is a dropdown menu of the various ammo it can use. Click on one of those and the ammo count can be found there.

A question about large and very large ships:
They don`t seem to land at all in the game or VERY seldom. Did you encounter this too?

[legionof1]

Its all dependent on the mission the ship is on. Some missions never land, some do, some land several times.

Of the large ships, you'll mostly see Freighters landing. During Alien Base construction, Frigates and Cruisers will land and during Sway Government, Terror Ships, Frigates, and Cruisers will land.
Given your tech level, you really want to attack only the Freighters.

Broken Academic Medic (necessary for school graduation):

I have problems getting one. One Academic Medic is in my inventory. I can`t research him anymore, so he must be already researched. In the workshop I can only rob him or enslave him. Interrogation is not possible.

What should I do?

If i'm not mistaken you need the tech interrogation techniques, before you can break prisoners.

You really need to start middle mouse buttoning everything, if you MMB an academy medic you'll see all the techs they know, what techs they lead to, and what actions you can do to them.  You'll see that the interrogation option is a different color than the robbery and enslave options.  If you click on that interrogation option, you'll see what technology you need to unlock it.  With a bit of backtracking through the tech tree it will get you on track.

[LouisdeFuines]

Sorry, you were right. MMB told me everything I need to know, what was necessary!

What is the mint for? I read the description and pushed ctrl+p but nothing happend Do I have to be in a special screen for an effect?

CTRL-P is often used as "print" command (thought it could also stand for the "paste" part of copy/paste). It's a joke, not something that has an actual effect.
The mint allows you to produce counterfeit chips for extra profit. The counterfeiting tasks are started from the manufacturing screen, just like all the others.

Lets talk about Voodoo.

I researched it, but still can`t use it. What topics should I search for in the tech tree?
