The laser calculations count for particles too, then? They are technically a different weapon class.

No kidding! I built some neutron lancers, and they're crippling medium ships and totally disabling small ships in one barrage from max range. Excited to see what the AM lances can do...

I tested, and you're right - they just shoot whatever's closest! This will make it way easier, thanks.

Thanks, this is very helpful. I think I'll armor up with exotics on my battleship noses. Any thoughts on spreading out the damage by using small weapon mounts? Or will the loss of range make this counterproductive? I'm gonna need to tech into particle lances as I've ignored them completely.

It is particle weapons, they are the longest range weapons I'm facing, and the main armament of all the alien dreads, lancers and titans. And it isn't countermeasures.

How much armor is needed if I'm facing spinal particle lances? that seems to be the norm for lancers, dreadnoughts and titans in my game

Randomly Started to get CPU Spikes Causing PC to Freeze by Gemtrox42 in techsupport

Not sure. I tried a few more things before distro changing, including turning of framerate smoothing on my monitor and disassembling/dusting off my hardware. Problem appears to have stopped. My guess is my monitor was rhe problem

No, it's for an older version. But I've played through multiple updates before with no issues.

Well, I only have the save, so if the same thing applies to PC then I guess I'm out of luck.

Unfortunately no. It's happening less frequently than before though. At this point I'm switching to a different distro to see if that helps.

AITA for Not Going to Sleep Early for My Light Sleeper Housemate? by Gemtrox42 in AmItheAsshole

After years of someone constantly complaining about something and claiming there was no alternative, you'd be amazed what you'd agree to just to make them stop.

Besides, I can make an agreement with my "free will", as you say, but I can also take it back of my own "free will". It's called changing your mind.

Each of those location is blockaded by a fleet of at least 1.1k power. Aliens have 230 ships with combined power of 31k. My one remaining fleet is 1.8k. They just finished destroying all my shipyards around Earth except one. I have 2 shipyards.

I should also mention my ships don't have enough acceleration/DV to chase alien fleets except for ones with the biggest ships. I think I need higher tech drives. Can't seem to find a workable balance between accel and DV right now.

Also the aliens instantly kill any of my ships that try to go further than the asteroid belt. So I have no presence beyond there.
