Is there a maximum range where things can actually hit anything? The wiki is pretty awful for information and it seems like setting distance for weapons any higher than 300 is worthless.
Suddenly my life is so much easier in making ships. Shame the AI is currently 'op as fuck' right now, even with six shield generators, they get through it immediately.
8 shields, 3 layers of hardened hull, and AI still manages to destroy me. What.
Also, is there a way to mass-link weapons/salvage cannons after you rebuild their computer module?
I know he messed with the AI, but there is DEFINITELY something wrong, I could actually put up a fight with a crappy starter ship before, enough to salvage parts from them. Now, even with a capital ship and quite a few shields, I can bring down, what, one? Before I have to flee. A lot of balancing to be done, [I]especially[/I] the shield and power systems, having a small ship is not feasible, and shields eat up far too much energy on their own for protecting you from... one shot.
I really must know if this [b]crackling noise[/b] that doesn't affect the game sound, but is always present, is normal.

If you guys think that's bad, then remember that the developer said that the A.I is on the easiest setting.

He's a shot comparing it to some small/medium ships and a shop:

It's powered by four 1.7million reactors right now, and has ~150k shield, will have far more though as I get more stuff

The new AI is absolutely vicious!
Hold tight until AI repair bots/repair stations. Otherwise your ships are gonna get RIPPED.
For everyone complaining about planets, planets rotate if they're in any quadrant within 6 X Y or Z. They're also very poorly represented on the background when they're shown as not flat and instead round, their flat counterpart could be much further out or they can even be planets that aren't shown their.

Jeez, now I wonder if my tactics of dodging will work.
AI is mostly using the ship I am currently piloting, it's absolutely loaded with missiles and crazy fast lasers. It also turns like a whale so dodging missiles is hard as fuck.
Going up against 3 of them at once is the most intense shit ever.
Oh wow, if it wasn't for this thread telling me about symmetry and giveid commands, I was about to make my flagship manually and completely legitimately.
I even made some $10 trillion from selling loot to get ready :v:.
Is there a quick way of deleting shit in build mode? My ship is wrecked and deleted it all by rapid clicking isn't too fun.

That's my ship you're comparing it to. :( Also pictured is the factory complex, which is puny.

Your ship is awesome and a turns a billion times faster

i saw this game a while back, then i saw this thread tonight.
first thing i did, fly into the sun and die.
i dont know what i was expecting...
also, is there a wiki that isnt awful?
What server is everyone on?
I got another question, how do I get SD cockpits to work?
[QUOTE=DaWhatTheFox;40398208]I got another question, how do I get SD cockpits to work?[/QUOTE]
Use the arrow keys to switch between cockpits.
is there any way to make my ship go faster than 50 kph
You have to enter the core first, though.
Why is it that i'll just randomly die sometimes? I know I'm not being killed by pirates and I'm not hitting the suicide button, but earlier I just died and I'm still trying to go back to the ship I've spent several hours working on.

I'm making a giant, ugly, black thing.
It's sure as shit going to be functional, though.

Is there any other way to make gravity modules work? Why would you want to fall through space?
I want to use a gravity module in my ship so that I'm oriented right, but whenever I exit my ship core I spawn outside of my ship with the gravity module still having its effect on me, making me fall away from my ship.
If only there was a way to rotate when you're just in your spacesuit..
Why are there even different controls for when you're in you ship and when you're just the player?
Ice rock gives hilarious amounts of credits
Hit the motherload after killing a single pirate, first time I've ever got loot off of them too.
Is there an item that refines minerals? I know there's one in a tutorial video but I can't find the item used in the video at all.
Dow anyone think its scummy to spam salvage cannons and year apart empty space stations?
I can't be assed cutting down hundreds of trees go money..
so after a fight with the rats turned for the worst and my ship fell to pieces around me, i hatched a desperate plan.
i jettisoned from my doomed ship right as it hit the hull of the enemy battleship.
i ripped my way through the already mangled enemy hull, found my way into the core room, jumped into it and used its weapons until the rats had shot that ship to pieces, then i made my narrow escape.
after refitting and repairing the enemy ship i took it back out to find my revenge, but as it turns out the rats wanted nothing to do with it and ignored me completely.
intrigued by this i hijacked another pristine pirate hull and they began to follow me.
they ended up following me until i had almost reached a planet and zoned, leaving me with this prize.

any rats i find now follow me until i outrange their area.
i am the pirate king.

End of page repost.
Also, is there collision damage? I'd love to make a "Space Sword" that can just fly straight through another ship ripping it in two.
