Could you PLEASE correct the title of your thread? It makes me cringe every time I read it. Actually, not exually

We need liquid physics first ;)

But why would you do that? What's wrong with being able to have a ship mounted shipyard? Like.... we've been able to spawn ships everywhere since the game existed, idk why it would be so bad.

I don't see anything wrong with my tone o_O, your question was just phrased stupidly, no offense. Asking about other people continuing the challenge is a bit different from "Why should the challenge be over?". No one ever said that it should be over. It's like asking "why does the government let...

Pretty sure that he meant FP cost for running the shipyard. As in you'd need block AND FP to use a ship mounted shipyard. Tbh I see no reason for imposed disadvantages, ship mounted shipyards already have disadvantages such as vulnerability, which is pretty major. Like, I wouldn't fly around in...

I'd say a missile & cannon hybrid like you're using is pretty good at multirole, especially when using missile/beam since you also get long range capabilities. That's what I use on my titan's medium turrets and in live PvP combat testing it always performed very well!

Because the person that made the challenge disapeared, it's not like we have control over whether it should be over or not and just decided "this should be over"...

It's been like this for a while actually, now that I think about it. Mostly to make them viable VS missiles before the new explosion system. You should look in-game actually, it might have changed again without me noticing (because lolbalance changelogs)

Nah it was changed along with beams when the HP update dropped afaik. Just don't forget that power cost was proportionally increased, so it's 100 e/sec per block now.

Shields are on a curve iirc, it's really really slow though.

The weapon tab has been bugged too many times for me to trust it, so I just calculate things manually: Total amount of weapon blocks (including linked effect) * 10 = DPS for cannons and beams primaries Total amount of weapon blocks * 20 = DPS for missile secondaries. Just keep in mind that...

Press the esc key and the tutorial tab in the menu that pops up, the tutorial is split in sections, you can chose which you want to do. So FACTORIES, for example ;)

Bad, bad, no, bad. Don't skip the tutorial, I can't stress this enough :P

Miner, starter factories on a planet or preferably a player made station if you have 1 million credits to make one, better miner, combat ship, real base/station, mothership. In that order. Of course you can do what you want but that's generally what people do. Just one thing, did you skip the...

I can totally see this being used in conjunction with shipyards to automatically produce and sell ships to people that don't feel like mining or making their own. +1

I'd be cool with this if ammo could be automatically reloaded in shipyards. From a missile turret perspective, this would be great :D. Because let's face it, going around manually refilling turrets (or anything for that matter) would suck, a lot. Of course you's still have to manually refill in...

Uh... just up your build mode sizes in single player and use copy paste, then make a blueprint of the shipyard. Having to dock arms would increase entity count, therefore lag. And it's completely unnecessary. Using copy paste is a lot faster then painfully docking the ribs one by one. Edit...

And I was referring to turrets being able to have missile locks even against jammed ships... Sorry if that was unclear

Don't forget that shield recharchers chug a lot of power, so the offset of requiring more thrusters for armor isn't as bad as you might expect. Might even take less power then shields, actually.
