Here is a simple ship systems layout. Throw down 80 500m lines of reactor blocks. This will get you all of the 1m bonus while being extremely redundant at the same time, plus an additional 1m from the 25 e/s per block. Then throw down 320,000 energy regen blocks for a further 8m for 10m...

Just thought of something, if you have a 101*101*101 cross of thrusters, and the center gets shot out, you will suddenly go from over a million thrust to less than 1000 thrust. Meaning one lucky shot can cripple a poorly designed dreadnought .

Also Sven, you asked I deliver. The old equation for thrust was thus; ( x+y+z-3) + (n^1.125) Where n is the number of blocks The new equation is this: [(x-1)(y-1)(z-1)]+(n^1.125) Where n is the number of blocks What this means is a 3d cross will give a vast amount of power, for...

Even with the old system, I could make fighters with op shields, weapons and thrust for their size/mass. It's all about how you set up your systems. My fighters generally have a 4-1 or 5-1 thrust mass ratio, and no power problems at all. The new update just makes it easier.

There's an option in server.cfg, It should look like this; COLLISION_DAMAGE = false //colliding into another object does damage (experimental) Set it to true. There you go.

Like I posted in this thread earlier, here are the two thruster equations, old and new. The old equation was: ( x+y+z-3) + (n^1.125) Where n is the number of blocks The new equation is this: [(x-1)(y-1)(z-1)]+(n^1.125) Where n is the number of blocks So in Sven's case, 61 in a line...

Nice!

Edit: Dangit I hit reply instead of edit.

It looks like the black is actually air, taking advantage of the lighting errors with wedges.

Thanks bro! Probably the misleading title. I coulda worded that a lot better.

By the time it even has a chance to render, you are 40km out of the sector, on my way back to the start I clipped right through the center of a station, and only saw it start to render after I was past it.

Why? I was sharing my knowledge of the current game. Not suggesting anything.

I do believe I just set the all time record, at 29,000 k/h It consists of a 33x33x33 cross of thrusters, and two 601m long power sticks.

I have derived the equation for thrust with the new mechanic, turns out it is: [(x-1)(y-1)(z-1)]+(n^1.125) Where n is the number of blocks I have tested it for 51x51x51, 101x101x101, and 201x201x201 and come out with figures of 125,282.7; 1,000,614.3; and 8,001,337.5 These figures match...

Actualy Sven, I ran some tests, and rather that the calculations running off of the SUM of x+y+z it now runs off of the PRODUCT of x*y*z In other words, it calculates off of the cubic volume of the area enclosed by the group. The old equation was: ( x+y+z-3) + (n^1.125) Where n is the number...

Hi, I'm Lt_Duckweed, a sophomore physics undergrad (For you non-US people that's second year) in the state of Tennessee. Even though I do not watch the yogscast, I was originally a part of the yogstorm, but I have stuck around for good. My main points of skill in the game are efficient systems...

Hate to break it to you, but thrusters don\'t affect turrning speed.

Actually the cap is exactly one million. I\'ve tested it on several of my ships. Just lay down 20,000 power blocks in 500m long lines and you will get the 500,000 from the 25 e/sec plus 1,000,000.00 e/sec bounus. For a total of exactly 1,500,00.00 e/sec
