How large is the debuff on shield regeneration when transferring with a shield supply beam? if it is < the debuff on shield regen when fired upon, then there is still a point in having internally docked power+shield supply ships since regeneration during combat would be higher for the same...

Curses! It won't let me download them without adding a credit card.

As far as I have gathered, the most efficient use of space per power generation is an arrangement somewhat like this: if you're building a stealth ship, you should build these layers from seven blocks long and upwards, until you hit the 1 million power limit beyond which configuration of...

No, I would argue that it would make battle more awesome, with further mechanics to use strategically, and the potential for a jumpdrive blocking projector block will make things more about preperation, ship design and fleet support instead of "who haz teh most blocks winz".

That scenario only occurs if the deathstar has insufficient shield capabilities to withstand the tiny bomb weapon which fits in the tiny "invulnerable" spot (I think you meant blind spot?) either way I agree this is an interesting proposal, and it shouldn't be too hard to nerf AI to be worse...

Interesting method, and obviously useful for building of large ships. I would note that maximum-performance-per-block ships such as stealth crusiers might benefit from fewer bordering blocks which don't perform a nonasethetic function, though this is easily remedied with a performance versions...

IRC compatibility is a good thing, though some of the less technical, or younger users here may not be interested or willing to use a simple but powerful communication interface, I would appreciate if it was still an option

Hello. I was told about this game by a fellow member of an obscure space game forum. As a player of Minecraft, a Hard science fiction fan, and funnily enough one who has watched more than their fair share of FiM*, I've read books, and fanfiction about things, but I tend to stay on the pure(er)...

Hello, first post on this forum: I'd like to compare specs and relative slowness in order to determine what works and what doesn't My computer is a laptop with 2x2GB 1066Mhz DDR3 Ram and an i5 460M (2C4T) @ 2.53 Ghz and a 7200RPM hardrive. I noted that during the tutorial warning messages about...
