Thanks for starting this thread - it made me realize that I need to make a better factory so I don't spend all of my time crafting manually. I've already got a few ideas, and I think I'll pull some from this thread.
I'll start with a dump box like I think most people do. It'll sort out anything...
It's a mining vessel. It does what it needs to do, and it's well under the soft cap of power regen, so I probably won't add anything else to it unless I get spare time and extra resources to blow.
You should get it for sure. I just got it a few weeks ago and I have logged 40 hours already. And that's saying a lot because I really don't get much time for fun.
1. What is there to do beyond building ships?
You can build structures and fight pirates/other players. You can mine and craft...
Right but lets say I design a ship, and I'm happy with its cosmetics and performance, and it has empty space (this describes a ship I just finished actually). It's got empty space that exists because of cosmetic design decisions I made. Probably not great decisions, but hear me out - are you...
So basically the idea is to increase the mass of the ship and compensate by adding thruster and power to accommodate cosmetic design decisions?
My thought was that you could always make the hull bigger if you're just trying to add stuff to it.
Forgive my ignorance by the way guys - I still feel...
Out of curiosity - why is it more efficient to fill in empty space? If you are happy with all of your systems, including thrust (which is affected by mass) then why bother filling in the space? What am I missing?
Shipyards do not work the way I'd expect them to. Here are my suggestions:
Entering Design Mode
How it works: Start a design from the shipyard computer then travel out to the virtual core to work on the design.
How I want it to work: Start a design from the shipyard computer then go into build...
I believe I tried to use that once and it did not work. That is to say I tried to activate them via the menu, then I floated out to check the BOBBY's and they were not activated. I'll play around with it tonight when I get home to see if I'll have any more luck.
This please. I keep accidentally entering an AI turrets and then having to travel to them to manually turn AI back on.
Also I keep entering my lift core by accident. Maybe I should just put a thruster on it and make it a secret emergency escape pod...
I joined to ask about docking. Good thing I found this thread.
I made some Docking Modules and Extenders and I was unable to use them. Are these obsolete now?
