This is a decent start, assuming there are patches before too long to try to clear up some of the many bugs, but there's a lot that just doesn't fit.
I'll be adding things as i come across them here, starting a new game as the federation. it might lead to it being a bit random. I'm not saying they are all huge problems, so please dont think i'm assigning them all the same importance.
Right off, why does my starfleet ship not have photon torpedos? this is technology that, by the time of the game start, has been in use for over a century. it should not need to be researched.
First tech to research under engineering is improved energy production, which unlocks impulse engine components. The text however says thrusters, and that "Thrusters are used for sub FTL propulsion." While true, it's only half the story as thrusters and impulse engines are very very different things. Thrusters are simple things like they have on spacecraft today, used for very very slow speeds. they can not get a ship anywhere near impulse speed.
Why does the warp core use energy? it produces energy, that's it's entire function. you might want to say, but it makes the ship go at warp. it does not. it makes energy from matter and antimatter, which the warp coils, in the nacelles, use to make the ship go.
The klingon empire is not in the location it should be from on screen sources.
Physics technology plasma launchers. from the stats, description and picture, its a beam weapon. beam weapons are not launched. torpedos are launched.
I know i said i wouldnt list bugs, but "mintaka sun" for what i assume is the star the planet mintaka orbits? that's just lazy lol also wrong. the sun was mintaka. the planet was mintaka III. and nope, no mintaka 3 in the system, no habitable planets.
I need to wonder, why are we caring about mining deuterium? its a hydrogen isotope. its expensive nowadays, though cheaper than things like gold and platinum, in the time of trek it's so not an issue. this should be antimatter maybe?
"captains log" event, where somehow a log is sent out to everyone. the stardate is 28920. we know from the episode the child, that stardate 38325.3 was in 2294. this one in this event is way off. as is the fact they are talking about a mission to the gamma quadrant decades too early.
"memory alpha" event. it talks about training to better resist mind control again. when was the first time? this feels like it should follow on from something as worded now. it also doesnt create the mission if that choice is selected.
Ah, so the fusion reactor upgrades to the warp core and the drive is seperate? My bad. but so you know, ships have fusion reactors as well as the warp core. where as here, the antimatter reactor replaces the fusion reactor. antimatter reactors are 200 odd year old tech by game start.
I'm unsure if whoever wrote the line "an al-arrr-ming development" with regards to pirates should be given a medal, or shot.
The shut up wesley event. Not sure if you know, but wil wheaton has come to absolutely hate that phrase. not sure if it still is, but for years, saying that to him on twitter was an auto block.
I'll add more to this later.
I dont want it to seem like i'm hating the game, i'm not. But there are a lot of little things that could be easily fixed and improve accuracy a lot.
