See, this is why that server catches a lot of flak. There's a total lack of "just roll with it" going on here. Incidentally, schema hasn't spoken out loud for a good two years now, to my knowledge. He pops in very, very rarely, but it's been a really damn long time since he's actually talked to...

Your ship systems are debuffed by the damage that you have. I'd love to see a ship design that's capable of even running at 50% structural HP, let alone jumping. By the way, there's always at least one ship that you can escape to when yours gets shot down - the one your enemy is piloting...

Blocks have enough HP that it takes a few minutes for the current Torch to break through one block of Advanced Armor. It takes a very long time to even get through squishy systems. I recommend kicking up the Torch cutting power to 5 damage per hit, rather than 1 damage per hit. It'll make...

It is. It's part of the graphics update that's on the roadmap.

I simply couldn't click when I saw the old GUI in the preview window.

The torch has nothing to do with that issue. What we'd need are personal homebases and small sector claims for single players.

It's always been that way. This just gives people another tool for it.

A crippling bug with beam turrets has broken all of my more recent turret designs. Currently deciding whether to refit or to wait for a hotfix.

To be fair, it takes a damn long time to break into ships with the torch, and the only guarantee of ship protection has *always* been homebase docking.

The more you think it out, the less people reply, usually.

Light blocks have an advantage over crystals and crystal wedges. Notably, that you can actually turn them off. Light wedges pls.

Getting pretty hot in here. Is it traitorous if one of my best friends mugs a person at gunpoint and I turn him in to the police for it?

Very aggressive all of a sudden. Anyway. Blocks with armor values keep other ships from kicking the shit out of you. That's pretty simple. Missile blast radius is dramatically reduced against ships that have armor HP remaining. Missiles are pathetic at damaging armor HP efficiently. Structure...

Right now, turrets have this really annoying problem where if they're mounting Cannons or Beams, they'll eventually cleave clean through a ship and stop doing real damage. Kinda hard for your turrets to kill something if they're shooting through a hole that goes clean through to empty space...

Today we had the HP update, too. \o/

Fuel doesn't necessarily mean that you're forced to use it. As far as I can tell, everyone who talks about fuel wants ships to need to use it to operate at full capacity, with some sort of minimum output setting, or to have reactors that use fuel and work far better than normal reactors. It...

Advanced armor might weigh a lot, but it pretty much makes most weapons worthless until they can get through a ship's armor HP. Seriously, try the dev build out. It's scary how good it is, even with the mass rebalancing. You can now actually make big, slow, tanky ships that outright refuse to die.

Don't think so. Warheads have a tendency to nuke any blocks in their radius.

Not just mass. Decorative blocks and such increase your ship's HP pool, too, AFAIK.

I might find this agreeable as a *very* temporary solution. Again, we'd need surface area and mass consideration for the shape of collision damage. At least that way we could start up on rewarding players for making improvised weapons.
