We can do that already ^^

kulbolen answered most of the questions already :) though you might still take damage through intact shields even with good integrity. Its a bug and it happens quite often.

its really bad unfortunatly. i didnt even figure how when exactly it happens. On Brierie there are 3 pirate ships currenty. My turrets miss 2 of them completely (shooting 90° angle into the void) while the 3rd one is no problem for them to hit. all 3 ships are power 2.0. The ship they actually...

Concerning Integrity: I figured out that especially medium sized ships suffer from it. While very small vessels profit from the (rather) high integrity value you start with and big ships have enough space to add a big block to get a nice integrity buffer, especially medium sized ships are having...

that's actually a good idea. Totally possible that there is a desync happening between the shield bubble and the ship's blocks. So the server "thinks" for a moment that those blocks that take damage aren't inside the bubble.

i can confirm that negative intergrity causes it, yes (tested it). However, there seems to be something weird going on beyond this. I don't know how to reproduce it yet. It seems to happen randomly, but sometimes even ships with positive integrity on all the systems seem to take block damae...

could very likely be the case, yes. im gonna check on FRU, i think they use the same ship for the NPCs. Edit: Checked it... on Freaks R Us the pirates spawn with shields down (but they do recharge). The armor HP, however, is also 0%... o.O this is so weird

"How to effectively protect yourself with shields (Power 2.0)" you can't

nope, just double checked, it has nothing to do with scanning. i can see the location of the reactors and everything, still they dont have shield or armor hp. it also istn just a display bug, they immediately start taking full block damage. i also spawned 2 of the pirate ship via blueprint, they...

On Brierie server there are some awesome power 2.0 NPC pirate ships that OmegaGame built. But unfortunatly there is a problem. The AI ships seem to always spawn with 0% shields (they don't even start charging) and 0% armor HP.

well, i figured out how to work around it, still its annoying and it doesnt make much sense tbh. A block (FTL chamber for example) should have a certain mass and not change it imo. It gets even more weird if you switch you chamber and use different types/amounts. For example one of my ships has...

the reactor power chamber isnt that good imo. Iirc it gives you 10% additional e/s, but since chambers' size is between 25% and 50% of your reactor's sze, you better add another 10% blocks to the reactor itself and some stabilzers and you'd still end up with less than 25-50% more blocks.

I found a new bug while constructing ships and trying to balance mass and thrust/energy cost of stuff. It seems that inactive chamber have MUCH less mass than active ones. I had my thrust mass ratio at 2.5 on one of my builds, but after i activated the chambers i wanted to use, the mass went up...

Benevolent27 : I just tested it with a mate. Ships don't need to have the same reactor size or bigger to scan a cloaked/jammed ship. My friend was able to see the nav marker of my 44k mass ship with a tiny ~25 mass scout :)

Unfortunatly covering everything in hull doesnt help. My mate's ship has its front completely covered in armor/hull - that's where my beams hit his ship. Still the beams ignored the shields and directly dealt system/armor damage.

for me it does cost energy

Im not sure if those bugs were already reported: while fiighting some pirates on brierie server, ive encountered some bugs: 1. Ships stop overheating once you leave the sector (guess it happens when the sector is not loaded anymore) and you return a bit later for example with a miner to...

i completely agree and i also like the solution you came up with!

It works, but for some reason, you now have to turn auto-pull "on" on both entities. I remember that before you had to turn it "off" on the entity from which you wanted to pull the items, that also confused me first. when i set it up like this, i had to enter the docked entity and allow the...

yeah, i noticed yesterday, when a neutral entered my sys with a jammed ship and my minimum size max strength scanner ship didnt unjam him. If perma cloaking is possible again in an updated build with similar capacity cost, you could only support stealth strength 3 max anyway without being over...
