Added a new section and ship to the fleet, the ORTHOS! FRIGATES Frigates are the most numerous vessels in the Ultima fleet, filling a variety of roles. Frigates are also some of the most inexpensive ships to produce, and will typically be seen accompanying larger ships such as cruisers and...

In the beginnings of the Ultima's exodus from their besieged planet, they needed a small yet durable ship to take as many people as possible into space. For this, large numbers of exploration frigates were hastily converted into warships, allowing a large portion of the surviving population to...

Is that it? No arguments for what role they fill that current shields do not? Advantages, disadvantages? How they might be implemented?

I use third person too much for testing weapons and logic. This suggestion is a no-go for me.

I plugged those numbers into an excel file someone made, and according to that, it takes a little over 200mil to fire. I also tested it in game, would not fire with 195mil power, but would with 210mil power. The ingame display is wrong, you need a lot more.

What's the size of the weapon groups? I can test it in my world and see what comes up.

I guess the biggest consensus here is to interact with others.

A little bit of everything. If I had to start over, I'd say watch some videos explaining how the power system works, as that is the back bone of everything. Alternatively, we have several people that stream regularly that are more than happy to help. A couple that come to mind are...

I blame SchnellBier

I weep at the sight of this beauty.

Will do!

Let's give it a go.

Forgot to move the block that colors the engines to an area that isn't visible instead of in the middle of the floor. OOPS! The rest of the changes are the same as for X 1.06

Updated the engines a bit for the new thruster plumes. When not moving, the engines are a dimmer orange, and it grows in intensity as you accelerate. I also replace the scanner system with an ion cannon in the front to help against shields. This shoots out of the center circle on the bow of the...

I clapped like a seal when I read the part about thruster effects

For my fighters I made, that admittedly are more form than function, the longest dimension is 41m, and that took a few hours. My salvager from about a year ago that was about 60m and lacked a whole lot of detailing took me maybe 5 hours of building and testing. My frigate that is maybe 102m long...

This is good, as I am of the console sect.

I would also like my badge for buying the game on steam.
