    I 've been experiencing the same problem lately. It's become chronic, requiring 8 or more tries to get a response. Even when I do, there are NO INDICATOR ARROWS guiding me to the target. Very annoying!

    Sometimes, you just need the firepower of a Broadsword's four ship-killing torpedoes.

    Maybe someday we'll get "Armored Spotlights", that are like Spotlight equivalents of Armored Doors. :)

    After seeing how huge a hole that ended up, I heard "Nuclear Launch Detected!" play in my head for some reason. :p

    It's cause HVs & SVs only have access to 'normal Doors', no access to their bigger badder Armored Cousins. I think Shutters have a strength level sitting between Normal Door level & Armored Door level. :(

    Nah, I wouldn't call it cheating to Post a "New Revision" of a prior Creation. :)

    *Looks at this CV's big open butt & imagines how fun it'd be to blow the Ship to pieces by firing a Empyrion equivalent of a Star Trek "Quantum Torpedo" right into that big ol' target hole & causing a Star Wars Death Star-like Asplosion* :p

    Ahh, gets me thinking of the Kevin Sorbo version of Hercules... "Power Corrupts. Absolute Power corrupts absolutely." :p

    I keep forgetting to check those new-to-me dudes out... do these Crew even do anything useful, or are they just Deco atm?

    This will be relevant in a moment.

    Pssst. I can hook you up. First Config.ecf file is free...

    Deco, but strongly indicate...THE FUTURE. My players and I roleplay 'rescuing' the human and alien crew, and add them to our ships.

    Today, aside from building a Broadsword from the Wing Commander movie, I tested the ability to apply the Max Block Count limit to non-weapons (as I realized that the Repair Bay is limited to 1.)

    Yes, Virginia, you CAN put a hard limit on the number of ANY block-type. Like, say, RCSes.

    We now continue our broadcast day.

    Is AoE Explosion Radius among the configurable things? :D

    That AoE in the Vid looked large, but hard to make out the Block Count from the angle & distance in the Vid.

    The fact that I can't get my ship to recognize that it has 3 warp tanks, not 1, is my problem. 3 tanks, still only 15 AU :(

    Easy one.
    I give you 4. Deal?

    Activate the CV Warp drive tank with 63 Pentaxid for SVs. :D:p

    If your problem is the Warp DISTANCE.
    That's hardcoded. :(:mad:

    That it is, unfortunately... although I'm pretty sure they said somewhere they would probably let server admins modify that in the future.

    On a related note, when you were messing with adding deco to small block grids, did you try the crews?

    Needs more guns.

    But, on a more observational note, did you consider filling in the "domes" on each side with angular/corner pieces? If you're happy as-is, then ignore this comment. :D
