      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      The logic/plex doors just glitch past a certain visual range, so they don't open and the drones get stuck.... F*ck it, I'm making it a big door. Having something that works is better than some useless fancy visuals. I'll leave the logic in place for when the game is less derpy. Edit: Even a...

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      Ok, the ship/rack signal transfer system is now working with a 100% success rate (which is a good thing). The drones are still getting stuck, though. It's very hard to tell what's going on because of the collision induced fps lag. I really don't understand why the drones are getting stuck...

      how thick is your ship?

      I prefer to make my systems insanely redundant. So that even if you destroy 60% of the vessel it will still function (proportionally) at 100% capacity.

      how thick is your ship?

      I know that @Lancake has a gigantic ship that has 8 block thick armor for a total of 6 million hardened hull blocks. Once the HP system gets released it will be practically indestructible :D

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      Because I made them out of normal hull and because the rack has zero systems on it (since I transferred everything to the ship). I have used a similar-ish drone made out of hardened hull a lot and it just doesn't make a difference. My current rack's price (22 drones) is 5.5 million :P

      You just gave me a very good (or extremely bad, depends on your point of view) idea >: D

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      What? You confused me there. In case you're wondering I just sell those blocks to get the credits back. But seriously, do you have any viable alternative?

      Christ man.... Ascended super forum warrior? Can you reach super forum warrior 3? You may have a lot of yelling to do (specifically the time it takes for half an episode of DBZ ;) )

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      Correction: I salvage the very small amount of materials that the dock is composed of. The only expense here is the drones. And at ~230k credit per drones it's nothing. There's also no other way of doing it apart from manually redocking the drones that weren't damaged and buying new ones to...

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      I gave myself space between the drones for that exact reason :P . Weirdly enough, the drones on my other rack (the one with systems) get stuck when I dock the rack... Even though they can't possibly get stuck (smooth insides). It's all very weird. Either way, I'm going to be upgrading the push...

      If it's ebola kill the virus with alcohol! Either way, you'll have 50% chance of survival :P

      Crime and punishment

      Saying that the game isn't PvP is just wrong. PvP is an integral part of the game. In fact, most of the elements currently in the game revolve around PvP! If you don't like that there's plenty of carebear servers out there that don't allow or limit PvP. So please, don't try to enforce your view...

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      @Thalanor Have a mix of both? :D Small progress update: I made the doors bigger, made them open longer and fixed a problem with the activation of the drone rack's undocking. With this I managed to get most of the drones out after activating the ejection system about 7 times... Still progress :p...

      Automated Ship Fabrication

      This isn't the first suggestion of the type, but it's the most well thought out and structured I've seen so far. Good job! Such a system would be incredibly welcome, I wouldn't have to swap out drones racks after every launch :P .

      Turret Question

      You forgot combat regen. During combat shields only regenerate at about 5% speed.

      Because it would be less trouble, probably look really ugly and wouldn't look nearly as cool :p

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      Damn, the drones are getting stuck during the ejection process :( Edit: Actually.... wtf did I do with the doors :p . They aren't big enough. Edit x2 : RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH, I had a row of black hull BEHIND the plex doors that was blocking the drones, wtf is that doing there???
