making planets non-mine-able would be a decent stop-gap fix, as implemented in many server-rules (at least in the past) > destroy them, or find asteroids, or do it 'on foot' etc... somebody will inevitabley/always/one-day try to mine a planet with oversized giant-hungry salvage arrays - this...

...also is Pulse being dropped? i know it has got a bad press, but it is only way to increase damage without increasing range -(therefore clear use as part of a battery of AI weapons, for example on a turret...)...what replaces that without just spamming blocks for the extreme-damage end of...

Thanks for the news and ongoing work.

"1. All turrets rotate the same speed, making smaller turrets pointless. 2. All sizes of everything track/aim just as quickly, making evasive action pointless. "

...well its PLAYERS, not NPC, you want i think...

Given the ongoing state of AI, entity glitching, NPC desync, etc etc, I continue to feel 'Crew' should be very near the bottom of that list...if at all :/ Anyway, I still prefer a 'Ship' more like an Ian M Banks Culture concept (ie humanoid passengers perhaps, rather than crew) - the idea of...

Good idea - something like 'integrity' is a good fundamental concept, but is not working brilliantly at present. Variations such as this idea would add interest and design possibilities.

ATTENTION: (your ship is too big) THANK YOU.

"doesn't matter if I hit it with a pistol, or the largest weapon in my fleet, I'm still doing exactly the same thing." 'agree'

[right hand side of advanced control menu/hud > scroll down, listed as 'reactor axis' (or similar) ... ] Integrity values presently seem to be rather irreverent at large sizes (where massive ugly system-cubes can be easily made) - and rather punishing for small/medium builds...:/ in a way i...

Power 2.0 (new iteration): GOOD WORK ! since nobody is saying it...including you Dev Team !!! tsk tsk > a forum-news post about the changes in original (awful) vs final power 2.0 would have been good message making. still: nice one!, looking forward to other new things and tweaks to 2.0...

The 2.0 changes are to address fundamental issues underlying 'everything', Many fundamental structures underlying game-calculation result in highly detrimental lag (or other varieties of weirdness) - This is particularly ruinous to enjoyable Multiplayer/Server play, whatever the state of the...

Agreed that recharge-delay is also necessary for depleted shields. Maybe a buffer is needed, so that real-time combat calculation can be sufficiently coarser grained to allow an entity to flip from 'minimum' to 'depleted' states without causing significant overall-cascading calculation load (eg...

Don't go so quick! :) - at least not if you have an interest in the building-fundamentals: I was highly skeptical about original iterations of 2.0, and actually enjoyed 1.0 XYZ power-threading... Much of the (justified) criticism of the original 2.0 power system is now moot (IMO)- the...

These are good points - of course we need to see how new 2.0 weapons interact before final assessment, but some re-charge under fire seems necessary. The 1.0 system could easily lead to virtually (in context) invulnerable ships - and 2.0 shield-attrition seems to address that > but maybe it has...

Currently I advise something like this regarding mining drones: -keep number of individual drone beams low (eg 24) and drones quite small (eg 10x12x25) -keep number of drones low (eg 8) -beware of drone launch collisions or similar - (once in a drone-spasm they might not recover until unloaded)...

I have similar feelings: The new Multi-Dimension Stabaliser system is much, much better then Stick-Stabs - and i am sure those who suggested similar are also much happier with it. Integrity system seemed to push too much towards cubes - perhaps this needs more thought - idk what might work at...

this has been the case for a long time now > old threads will tell you buggy fleet mining > 'next patch...'
