Obviously, a squadron is a subdivision of a fleet. However, it is usually assumed to be a squadron of fighters. In reality, this term can apply to any subgroup of a fleet...with some minor additions. The smaller units can be assigned to a ship as "carrier" and will dock with that ship when not...

Actually, no, not really. The BB turrets are VERY securely anchored to the rest of the ship---they have to be, in order to turn. Also, present SM turrets are fairly ridiculous---they're only external, and on missile turrets this makes no sense---where's the magazine? Where's the massive power...

This is a very intelligent way to solve such a problem. Perhaps a more direct solution: When you place a BOBBY AI, you get the option to have it function as a turret core, or as a whatever else you may want to run with an AI. This turret is an integral part of the ship, rotating via rail turret...

A simpler way to do it is to create something I'm thinking of making a suggestion on: Squadrons! Fighter squads, bomber squads, cruiser groups, battleship lines/combat units, destroyer task forces and carrier groups or task forces. Basically, subdivisions of a fleet. A fleet is all well and...

I was referring to hull blocks vs. standard armor. But I already remade my TIE fighter drones to be legal (Just had to double the panel thickness on the wings) Now they're even more crazy powerful!

I understand perfectly well, and you're right, it is unfair to those who've already completed their drones. Maybe I'll convert my Y-Wing into a drone---it masses just about 100 right now, and just needs more firepower. Anyway, I can up-mass those drones---right now they're unarmored xD. Hull...

Dealing with all the fun Alpha problems, including but not limited to: Disappearing ships, disappearing designs, and disappearing pirates.

Are you set on a 25 minimum mass limit? Because I've got a decent AI design that is at 18 weight, and the whole purpose of these drones is to be disposable and cheap to mass-produce. In fact, I have two of those ships, differentiated by weapon.

Edit: Nevermind, I moved the anchor block out 1 block and it loaded fine. Although the server was restarted in between now and earlier when I had the issue. Again, thanks for the quick help.

I'm seeing two glitches with a shipyard that was working properly just a day ago. The first glitch is that designs will not load, instead loading to about 80/90% of the loading bar, appearing fully-formed in the shipyard area, but never finishing and blocking further orders. The second glitch is...
