yea thats my issue with them too, although i guess they are there for the edge cases where you have 18.99mt and need 19.00mt for the next upgrade

:P just don't make tiny hangars so that your fighters have to thread the needle to get back home

"love tap" https://youtu.be/ZibQm2zCmZg?t=48s one does not love tap with a capital ship...

surprisingly they make excellent mining drones, in the whole time I have been running them they accumulated just 4-5 self damage by ramming asteroids. watching them EXTERMINATE pirates with is derpy to say the least... the recoil from the most guns can spin them around but they are small, tough, and pretty cheap to mass produce. :D just under 3000 resource per unit, and since they are so small, they do tend to avoid killing each other nearly as often as the AI

this is too funny to patch, and it would break every AI ship ingame...

Exactly how much damage did you do to get 200k rep loss... was the station even alive afterwards?

if only i could set these as my default fighter design :D the Dalek armada is being built!

YOU WILL BE EXTERMINATED!!!! EXTERMINATE!!!! EXTERMINATE!!!! EXTERMINATE!!!! EXTERMINATE!!!! Dalek.xml Dalek3.xml

some people have no appreciation of the arts! on second though screw the tardis! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!

I Smell a Tardis build coming on... good point... I gots me a tardis biches! brewwm brewwm brewwm!

.xml editing to put all modules inside another block :P of all the dirty rotten cheats! I LIKE IT! why don't you just put the crew quarters in there as well? here I present my take on this: The quantum inversion core! Behold this Mirakle of Machinization! a novel technology achived by folding space through 12 dimensions, allowing you to fit a whole warship with thruster, reactors, shields, integrity fields, supercomputers, crew quarters, a battery, and yes the new version even has a kitchen sink! mirakleOFmachinzation.xml

:P its my way of going from starting zone to the centre on the cheap, its also great for trading... shortened my commute to the centre from several hours to just under 3.5, just an idea for those of us who don't want to wait hours to reach the good stuff

quick question, do you use cargo bays? my standard ship design is quite large because there are cargo bays and stuff all over the place, but if i remove them and crate a pute combat ship I can make the thing a lot smaller, like 50-75% smaller simply because cargo capacity takes up so much space on the hull.

cool, ill take it and raise you double!

I already use iron for thrusters and cargo holds titanium for hull and engines naonite for internal systems trinium for armour, fighters and hull and xanion for warp cores if I did it any other way I would never have enough material for my ship... I have empty every system with a resource depot I pass through and i still never have enough resources, how are you having "excess iron"?

i have not done extensive testing mind you, but in the research station putting in a turret of the level you want 1 material tier above the other turrets allays gives you a turret of lvl+1 and about half the time of the material you wanted and most of the time give out a turret of the same type as the one you put in for example lvl30 naonite mining lvl26 titanium gatling lvl28 iron salvage would allays give a lvl31 turret often give a mining turret would occasionaly give a naonite turret maybe you were shoving lvl41 turrets into a lvl33 research station... cause you know that happens

hi I have found a (fun?) bug with the game so you see, I had a couple wings of salvage fighters doing their thing while i was trading in a system and then I crashed into said trade station going at a fraction of the speed of light (as you do) for obvious reasons, neither me or the station came out of the encounter unscathed... now while my ship is big, the station was larger in this particular case, so my ship exploded (sadface) now my fighter squadrons are loyal, and trained to never surrender! so they swore everlasting vengeance on the nation that destroyed my ship... and I cant see any way to stop them, seeing as the carrier that originally held those fighters is dead in their quest for vengeance you can see them here killing a shipyard, do note my ever decreasing reputation...

I already have a few squads of battleships in the system... and they are bigger then yours!(obligatory penis joke is obligatory)

I would actually like to Be able to shoot/launch while cloaked, at massive penalties like a temporary increase in "detectability" but still able to do so. I've seen it in so many games where cloaks are a "that's nice" feature with no practical purpose because you can't cloak and shoot.

Salvagers are weapons designed to cut ships apart... it is a weapon in the same as a plasma ark welder is a weapon. There is no reason for it to be weak. Also fwiw chainguns are much better then salvagers, my old red iron triple chain gun was deadly as hell.

It's a pet peeve of mine, I understand that there needs to be some enforcement of the law, but the sheer suicidal bravery displayed by the peacekeepers in most games makes me sigh... It's simply not realistic that a cop in a dinky 100tone frigate will pull up to a warships in the middle of a fleet of similarly sized warships and try to "enforce the law". I like to think a preference to self preservation would prevent this. Because if said frigate expects me to surrender my lesbian slave harem, they will soon find out exactly how large the bore diameter of my main gun is...

Dear Alien star fleet command Now I consider myself a reasonable person, but I do like my simple pleasures in life. Thus onboard my finest battleship, within my grand fleet I keep my personal harem of 10000 lovely slave girls. Unfortunately it seems that certain members of several alien races take offence at this, and in what i assume is an attempt at humour, you send tiny little frigates at me to try and "rescue" my harem from the lap of luxury. Now I am not one to shoot the messenger, but let us be clear here, ONE DOES NOT MESS WITH ANOTHER ONES HAREM hence I am in a bit of a conundrum... I do like your nation, I really do, but that will not stop me from razing it to the ground if you keep this up! Kind Regards Amimai Grand empress of the Terran Empire
