12 AM/ 00:00 January 10 Eastern time was about 14 hours and 11 minutes ago? so does that mean 9 hours and 49 minutes left or what?
edit: k found the post:

12:00AM January 10th EST is the official cutoff time.

so yeah. a bit late there.

I asked in chat but apparently I am not the only one who fails :p I guess the most confusion was whether this meant the night sat -> sun or the night sun -> mon (apparently in japan 12AM even means noon, got conflicting search results). 24h time in a written context can be less ambiguous, as you have 0:00 to 23:59, and it then goes back to 0:00 which belongs to the next day already, whereas having 11:59 PM become 12 AM (instead of 0 AM or something) one minute later confuses some people not used to the system (the equivalent time 24:00 doesn't exist for example, would always be written as 0:00)

 

[Croquelune]

According the -5 hours I got with this timezone, it would be closer to 17 h and 15 min ago.

EDIT : Notice to interested parties "For the next event with a time limit, please, use GMT timezone + 24 hours clock. It would be easier for everyone.

By rights the mass shouldnt matter as long as its built well and is under 300.

For those discussing core in location to pilot seat, mine is also accessible from the seat. The camera takes up the seat tho since you can't sit in it and fly at the same time. Also, I would sit on the cannon barrel in front(of the seat) before entering core so you don't get stuck in the canopy when getting out. Even with it open, it still tends to put you partially in it unless you sit before entering core.

And Gandrac, love the Starfury! B5 doesn't have enough ships here yet, though there are a few.

Okay I pushed an update to include the AI module, seeing as that's sort of a prerequisite.

Does anyone know, can the AI module currently use inner remote blocks?

If not, I guess my cannons are all offline...good thing for missiles

 

[StormWing0]

Nope the AI can't use logic of any kind. Only weapons and thrust at the moment if I remember right.

no its not, AI can control anything, the block is just a UI for players

So if, for instance, the ship wasn't configured to include cannons, but those cannons were included in the ship (with computers), the AI would/would not be able to use them?

I wired the cannons to fire in a pattern for the control panel, so as of right now my guess is they won't work in the AI battle
