      ^that was originally a much longer post lol but I guess my phone glitched... here was the rest :) I got into some trouble building my homebase when 5 or 6 pirates followed me home and laid siege to my station. I did not think much of them based on past experiences and built a quick light...

      Questions from a new player

      Right now I think I saw somewhere that the damage is divided by number of blocks affected, where as affected blocks are every block there beam goes through until it hits an armor block or runs out of ship. So if I deal 1000 damage, hit 9 blocks before I run into an armor block, then all 10...

In effect making a single turret with 2 independent barrels capable of tracking 2 target that are on...

      Questions from a new player

      Thanks for the correction on armor values. With all the old information floating around it can be really hard to theory craft :(. So let me try this again under my new theory. I fire 800 explosive cannons dealing 4000 damage and hit an armor block. 2000 damage is absorbed by the ships armor HP...

      Questions from a new player

      AWESOME!!! And that leads to my next question. Lets say I take my new shinny explosive cannon and shoot a armor block with another armor block behind it and surrounded by modules. I do 1000 damage (for example) since the armor block has a 50% DR only 500 get through, since the armor block has...
