      Please, Please, God/Schema - AI behavior and Fleet Commands as Python(Mining Fleet Woes Continue...)

      Lua!!! Yes, I meant Lua. The game already has Lua script. There is no reason to go to Python. Any scripting language will do. I just blanked on which scripting language was being used. Second, I actually read the fantastic write up in the game news section which has lots of information on the...

      Please, Please, God/Schema - AI behavior and Fleet Commands as Python(Mining Fleet Woes Continue...)

      [EDIT: I meant Lua, not Python!!!! :P Ooops! ] Mining with drones has been... A lot of work. At this point, I'm certain I'd have done better putting those salvage beams on AI turrets than on standalone mining drones. But I'm far more interested in exploring exactly how drones and fleets are...

      Fleets working without Bobby AI

      Huh. Doesn't feel legit without putting a Bobby on those drones to me. I will continue to do so for RP purposes, I guess... Until this is better implemented?

      Production Planner

      This is brilliant, and I love you. :) <3 I may be easy. However, I'm picky about Chrome. Chromium for life is actually tattooed on my face. Some people find that off putting, but I can commit when I feel strongly about a browser. Thanks, Google! You're the best! Chrome doesn't work because of...

      Drone Mining Fleet EXASPERATION :/

      I feel so dumb for not realizing the problem! Monday, May 23rd was Dronedependance Day! Of course drones don't work on a Galactic Drone Holiday! It's really against their inhuman rights to force them to do so. They were justified in just sitting there doing nothing Monday. Today, I logged in...

      Drone Mining Fleet EXASPERATION :/

      The drones I had working did stop collecting when their cargo was full. I witnessed that behavior. Today, the new drone fleet wouldn't collect under any circumstances. I made it by feeding the old drones to a shipyard, then spitting out the "improved" versions. After they refused to work, I...

      Drone Mining Fleet EXASPERATION :/

      I made some drones yesterday that mined the asteroid field before half of them burned in the sun. Today I made improvements, and the new drones will not mine. :/ This would be less frustrating if it never worked in the first place. Yesterday, I discovered that the salvage units on my dead...

      How to make efficient salvage beams and lower lag

      A Simple Weapons Effect Question

      My solution to this problem: Put a daughter transporter ship inside the siege platform so you can transport to it without taking your own shields down. If it's not moving when you undock the daughter ship, it's not much of a problem. You can create a remote for undocking the transporter bay...

      Shipyard won't Ship. Yarrrrr!!!!!

      I love the shipyard mechanic. It's brilliant and maybe one of the best innovations of this game, as a person who likes to strike a balance between creative and survival, and having wanted this in games like Robocraft (which I don't recommend at this time until they unbreak their economy). I got...

      Shipyard won't Ship. Yarrrrr!!!!!

      I created a new shipyard, one that looks like it should work. I created a design from a blueprint. Then it got stuck. I can't cancel the order or start a new one. Destroying the shipyard computer leaves the design floating in place. Destroying the shipyard core makes the design go away...
