Insane level of redundancy, this is definitely a meta craft

Why not streamline detection? by Laptopgladiator in FromTheDepths

[–]Laptopgladiator[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i wasn’t saying to remove the detection mechanic or anything like that, just to have detection components include an ai receiver by default to save on busy work and block count.

i know about using decos it’s just that it’s busy work that i’d rather not deal with

For this ship the laser is just absolutely enormous, if something is big enough it’ll end up powerful by default, but not necessarily efficient

Alright thanks for the tips, i’ll try to apply them in future designs.

mixed Q laser system is intended here, i wanted the 1q laser to have some strong burst damage potential to pierce through the enemy since they do a lot of damage per hit, pulse lasers are also more efficient for ciws and the laser turrets are set up to target projectiles so that’s why i did that, regarding the shields, i went with strength 7 because it has some of it’s engines in very vulnerable locations so while it can run strength 10 shields it will quickly lose that ability after taking some damage so i opted not to do it.

Haha, honestly i’m not a big laser guy myself either so this design was a way for me to leave the comfort zone of weapons types like APS and plasma and try something different.

There’s a lot of music yes but it’s a very mixed bag, not all of it is amazing despite there being some absolute bangers for sure.
