    This is my teaser pic. Still lots of work to do at this point, I was going for a retro type vibe. 20180301081809_1.jpg

    Now wait just a minute. So it's ok to modify the game config so my HV is invincible, has instant acceleration, unlimited ammo, and travels at 150m/s in every direction with only 1 small thruster? This doesn't seem quite right when other folks are playing the unmodified version of the game and building within it's limits. o_O

    But this isn't a competition about whose HV beats everyone elses on combat?

    Also no-limits on weapons is a normal option you can choose in the difficulty settings within the default game I believe.

    Right, can choose if to allow vessels/bases with more than default max amount of whatever, when start a new game. Have not tested with warp equipment tho, so might be some exceptions. Now it is called "Block limit for certain devices" true/false.

    I only stated allowing more than default turrets. Nothing about messing with config files for better acceleration/ invincibility.

    LOL dude, I think it was only specifying just "Max Weapon Count" Vanilla Limit being disabled for this Contest... something I wish had been specified from the start, as my Entry has already built around Vanilla Max Weapon Count & no turnin back now.

    ... might need to strict up on getting ALL Details of a Challenge fleshed out before it's even started. More reason to take a good break between Challenges & not chain run them non-stop. Good thing breaks between Contests was already decided upon, eh Jenn? ;)

    Max Weapon Count only applies to Weapons & Drills. Warp Drives & the like are a whole different Can of Worms.

    Oh... hell yeah! :D

    I took "put as many as you want" meaning to the limit of the base ruleset.

    It should not have to be said that builds should adhere to the base rules of the game, not config versions.

    I tried to warn the devs of the pitfalls of allowing the config to be released to the public, sadly it was ignored. It will only get worse.

    yeah, I know, I was just being an ass :oops:. What I like about the challenges is seeing what everyone else does, working within the same limits and using the same tools. It's not a competition per say, but when we start going beyond the defaults, the play field starts to tilt. No worries though, carry on.

    I think it should be renamed to become "The Meatgrinder"

    (Totally used that name before on a starter hv with a harvester for gathering xp)

    Ok I am struggling with my entry. I am trying to get my forward weapons set up to look good. I know I'll get toasted in the heat of battle but a girl's got to look good!
    So I am getting close I can feel it. Plus I think I like the guns up on the top and the turrets on the bottom. I don't know, what do you think?
    Guns on Bottom?

    Guns on Top?

    Or answer C, put a pink bow on Frost-X in the background and enter that one?

    Thanks!

    Don't listen to the shithead Stats Screen about its Width Reading... it's totally bogus. I gave this dude to Jenn & she personally confirmed it to be 23 Blocks Wide legit. Damn if I know what's causing the bogus Width Reading.

    Is the 18 hours standby time for the ship with all devices enabled?
    Or the achievable standby time via power saving measures?

    18 hour standby time would be for when HV is at idle on flat terrain. Power saving methods are ok.

    Go into Godmode in creative, park HV on a fully solid BA platform made of cube blocks that's about 10 blocks deep, fly your avatar inside the actual BA blocks near the bottom and look up...
    (godmode disables collision detection, and the interior of solid blocks doesn't render the surfaces; your entire BA platform becomes invisible from the inside)
