Yes, hull is a waste it blows right through it. Standard armor does work seems to hold back the explosion from passing through. But you get that mass issue. Right now this is what I am playing with. Approx 100 million e on base ship The two docked modules have about 190 e/sec I will be running...

So I went back re analyzed the system. Here is the problem to get decent efficiency out of the blocks for continuous power you need fairly large block counts 7200 block will net you 1.23M e/sec. or about 170 a block. You can shoot a single block out of that 7200 and end up finding huge amounts...

I went to the point of attaching a cannon cannon system to a ship and then tried providing power using the aux power only. Turned out the I had a bug needed to reinstall. Again. Argh.

Thanks for your insistence on it being the other way. I reinstalled and sure enough you are right.

Big fat never mind. I had to reinstall apparently. Bug. Need to re evaluate.

Having to re evaluate. After enough insistence by others I realized I must have a bug going on re installed and not doing the same. This is the third time I have had to reinstall lately after updating.

No real lower or upper limit.

There is some poor labeling or explanation as to what the actual values mean. The off rate is the actual power produced continuously. Yes, it will produce that much power even in the on state. The on power isn't how much power is produced at all it would be better labeled as discharge rate. The...

You could setup what amounts to a global storage that everything is dumped to. Then setup individual boxes so you can turn them on and access a specific item you want which it would pull from the global system and you could also that way set up storage around the base that could pull anything...

I do other stuff. Like program, or graphics, and more. You know stuff like this. This is the second car I made.

What I was told on here is they basically used a ray trace algorithm. Which is why it is slow that was implemented when they mad the big change to how missiles did damage. I recently put a suggestion in that would give them as accurate effects but is much faster to run and has far fewer...

From what I tested recently seems the core still gets hit just missiles/AI don't target it. Hmmm, going to need to retest it though maybe put a small wall of them in front. Either way if it doesn't should be an easy fix for them to make that back to true. Forgot thanks for info.

Exactly, no armor needed. The cores are the armor.

So I was wonder if damage passes through a core my guess is it does depending on the type of damage and amount. There is a sick reason I thought of this. I say sick because you would seriously have to be mental to do it. It is possible to build a ship that has a surface built out of docked...

I used docked power supplies like you are talking in the past. In fact there are probably a few ships in the community area I put in that have such docked systems. If you look at ToyBox in the community ignoring the quad-armor it is fairly representative of power systems in smaller ships I...

Nothing today. Spent the day working in blender and programming my own game. I've been a bit turned off since there is an issue with stuff ungrouping and doesn't seem like a rush to fix it. So pointless for me to build.

The biggest issue I seen with people and power on here isn't so much the laying down of big blocks of power it is two other issues. The first is those who don't understand how the power formula works and think volume is actually some part of the equation. GroupPower = BlockPower + SizePower...

The thing about this game it is always changing. People are always stuck behind a learning curve. Which is why I tend to put the information out on stuff I figure out. It doesn't hurt. People learn from it. Just when you think you created the best thing someone else comes up with a better idea...

So what you are saying I shouldn't post stuff like the highest power supply efficiency is 898 blocks in a strait line or 897 if you make an L or such. Or that I shouldn't have posted the Power Formula for missile combinations like I did here. Some info on missiles I guess that means I really...

Just put a suggestion in to deal with it Squadrons and flight wings. allow assign of the ships to squadrons and then assign a squadron a task...
