RedAndCosmoteer honestly it was something to that effect ha ha! But I'm putting in the Arena, people already know some cheesy ships are in there so I figured they should be expecting something like that
Galaxy in Flames ship submission page (closed)
"The Exiled"
Just an amalgamation of module designs i haven't used before while taking inspiration from your ship the enveloper.
(Again couldnt attach the file like I wanted to...)
I would like to submit my reworked CarpetBomber.
Please test this one instead of the previous old version.
It now costs 185.450 Credits.
(Direct Link: https://ibb.co/J2ftvtS)
Please tell me if it passed the test and will be in the next update, I would really appreciate it.

DeletedAccount Passed! Yep just a better version of the Enveloper! (I really need to update the ships in that cost range they are awful!)
Meiko Did not pass. That ships really only needs 2 ammo factories to supply all of those cannons. It was also woefully under gunned compared to the other ships in its price range. Also how you posted the ship would not let me drag drop it into cosmoteer so I had to recreated it to test it. If you keep trying to attach the image using the attach button it will eventually attach on the 2nd or 3rd time.

I do not know how to attach them properly, pls help.
And outgunned? I tested the thing myself ai vs ai. And it destroyed almost all of the enemy ships.
Did you use my second verison the one I posted in you main thread was not optimised. I meant the one in this thread, the one with 2 Ion Bolts. If it was this version you tested I cannot understand how you tell me its beeing outgunned. I tested it myself against ships its price class (from gif and not gif) and it beat 9/10 of them.
Meiko you ships was priced around 180k right? The tier you probably tested your ship in was the teir with a max of ~175k so you were bumped up a tier that has a max of ~250k if you wanted to get in a tier better suited tier you need to drop around 10k in cost.

Ok understood.
But could I get a tip what was inefficicient?
1 Small cannon needs 1 ammo factory and 1 shield needs 1 reactor.
Also what Cost = what tier?
Meiko 1 Small cannon needs 1 ammo factory
That's incorrect. That's how it works for large cannons. If placed in an efficient way 1 factory can support 2-3 small cannons.
Meiko Also what Cost = what tier?
Like @Northerner said:
Northerner you ships was priced around 180k right?
Northerner with a max of ~175k
Northerner you were bumped up a tier that has a max of ~250k
Just make your ship 10000 credits cheaper and you should be in a better price tier.
@Northerner Yo question, whats the highest price tier atm? the largest ship currently in the game is around 15/16M right? can ships of around that price tier be submitted as well?
In that case you could try to separate weapons and defense systems. 2 shields can run on one nearby reactor if crew is always available to refill it. This way you could have crew dedicated to the weapons, and crew dedicated to shields. Thrusters and other things are powered by the closest system.
One major flaw with this plan: you would have to redesign most of the ship if you want to do that.
