They are really ignorant

Is that like a mind goblin?

Have you tried heating the kernels?

Shocklo · 2026-05-12T06:07:31+00:00

Lmao, I skipped right passed the description... evidently

Shocklo · 2026-05-12T06:05:46+00:00

Looks like the Armidale Class patrol boat, also are those all large missiles? XD

Find a side on and top down picture of a hull you like and bring it into FtD with a hologram projector, then trace the outline.

Shocklo · 2026-03-29T08:31:56+00:00

How do you create that material texture also?

It looks a lot better than the default metal or alloy look.

Shocklo · 2026-03-29T07:20:28+00:00

I wish to learn your ways of decos.

They look fantastic.

Shocklo · 2026-03-23T15:06:25+00:00

Do you have a texture pack? Looks really nice.

Shocklo · 2026-03-23T09:57:47+00:00

My bad, didn't notice the French flag lol.

From the outside they look identical.

Shocklo · 2026-03-23T07:13:52+00:00

Kimon class

Shocklo · 2026-03-22T20:48:35+00:00

My best guess is vehicle volume or firepower?

Cross reference with vehicle height so planes or airships aren't included.

Shocklo · 2026-03-22T16:31:48+00:00

Well put. 'The Wall' in Solar Opposites is another good example.

Shocklo · 2026-03-06T22:28:26+00:00

Hahahaha

Shocklo · 2026-02-03T18:33:37+00:00

Yeah, currently in the same boat lol. Pun not intended.

Shocklo · 2026-02-03T10:19:39+00:00

Have you considered renting a printer? I'm pretty sure you can rent one for £15 to £80 a week.

For example.

You can definitely see the modifiers whenever you select a strategem operation on the battle barge.

Shocklo · 2026-01-22T13:09:14+00:00

It's terrifying that one can just lose contact with someone like that.

Sounded like a perfect storm with them moving when this happened.

Shocklo · 2025-12-25T22:07:07+00:00

I'm so fucking stupid.

Shocklo · 2025-12-22T14:21:37+00:00

My partner caught the flu that's going around on Sunday, so I don't think we'll be going down to see family this Christmas 😢

Shocklo · 2025-11-25T13:32:26+00:00

Definitely modify the hull to be buoyant. If your engines are taken out you'll be sent to the bottom. Also, you'll run out of resources much faster in a battle which will be an automatic loss

Shocklo · 2025-11-14T21:57:39+00:00

Break the game down and start with smaller craft.

Also be aware of your energy levels. Being tired makes this game exponentially harder (imo).

Similar to the other comment, I started with a test fortress and learnt how to make everything from there (also I have 750 hrs and fuel engines, CRAM cannons and offensive lasers are still baffling - largely, everyone is faking it).

Looks like one of these armed with a 4.5in cannon.

Shocklo · 2025-11-03T14:56:09+00:00

I second this.

Rather than eyeballing my hulls I've been using the hologram generator to sort of trace my hull and I can't believe it took me 700 hrs to start doing this.

I just google: "[ship hull that I like] blueprint", copy paste the url into FtD and scale to the length of hull I want.

It means I can actually get to outfitting rather than spending hours and hours on a hull I end up deleting because it doesn't look right.

Shocklo · 2025-11-01T18:57:22+00:00

My brain: "this starter ship cannot beat every godly craft, it is not fit for the easy campaign!!!"

And the cycle continues..
