My Computer should be in order this week so i will resume development on the mod this coming week! It will be mostly adding ships that were submitted but after i get that caught up it will be back to sprite work!

And by the by I don't know if anyone else is but i am super excited about making the chlorophite weapons!

Northerner chlorophite weapons

I'm interested. What are these?

Northerner

Welp, guess where I'm going

Northerner I think you'll be spending a long time testing ships.

Alpha Nevertheless players will be encouraged to use more variety in their choice of weapons, and learn the importance of speed and positioning.

This is exactly the opposite of what happens. Only the longest range weapons are viable because only they let you fight kites without chasing them, and anything light enough to chase down a peer kite has too much engine and too little of anything else to fight non-kites.

Alpha Like trying to hit the engines of the kiter before his backward speed comes to an maximum.

You cannot hit the engines of a kiter except through flagrant AI abuse. I haven't seen a single kiter in the mod that doesn't have its engines in its shadow, often behind a preposterously thick armor block. Missiles are not fast enough to swing around and hit the engines.

Alpha It would be stupid to add railguns if ships won't try to take advantage of that range.

With 20/20 hindsight it was stupid to add railguns full stop. They have too much facing damage density to be a long range weapon.

Atarlost Well, I see we don't agree at all. That means neither of us will be able to convince the other.
Let us agree to quit with this discussion, before it starts to heat up.

I must say, you really use good and valid points to support your opinion, much better than the "Because I'm right" stuff people IRL use.

Just a thing I spotted while looking through some of the galaxy in flames ships:

The atlas' pd has no door just saying.

DeletedAccount I hate it when that happens...

DeletedAccount oof, I'll fix that! Thanks for pointing that out!

Northerner No problem.

@Northerner Did my ship pass your test?

Zachary I think he's still testing, or fixing his pc.

Alpha Ok
