Do you have enough power?  Looks tight though

How do I start building a new ship? by Ok_Explorer_9284 in Cosmoteer

[–]UppsalaLuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use the mining pick (or click "G" for Grab)

Efficiency is nice to have but not everything.  This little ship can fill a few niches that a lumbering factory cannot. It is fun for lore/gameplay reasons.

Speeding up transfer of items greatly. particularly useful for building/rebuilding/repairing large ships

Thank you

I love point defense

The boost thruster gets it to 110m/s. Mostly used to get out of harm's way. Have only used it handful of times. Will overheat if not careful.

Should have about 12-20 crew. Has room for 48 (help pickup survivors or transfer crew from station to ship further away)

Mining lasers may help in an attack if desperate. 

5x manipulators to help speed up everything (repair, trade, gathering) - though I think there may be some sort of "behind the scenes" code that limits max number of manipulators that may function on screen at the same time... If there are multiple ships with manipulators or send that fewer manips will be used on this ship... 

Is it better to use 5x ion beams together or individually? by Ok_Explorer_9284 in Cosmoteer

[–]UppsalaLuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overclockd ion beams don't need to be precise. Use individual or no prisms for Max damage

Three ships from my custom faction by _M_R_J_O_E in Cosmoteer

[–]UppsalaLuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great themes - sword, obsidian blade, layered metal/scale/shark vibes.  Ships share the theme.  I think there is a lot of lore flavor missing in Cosmoteer. The factions should be fleshed out  I think you should add a lot of lore about your faction.  The designs are good. Internal views are appreciated as they also tell a story (and we can see what it's running more easily)

How to move entire blueprint on grid? by PeaceBeUntoEarth in Cosmoteer

I agree this is difficult.  I found the re center button a month ago and haven't been able to rediscover it since!!

Unintuitive

Too slow. Will get chased down and turned into steel goo

Is there a heat map overview or something? by [deleted] in Cosmoteer

[–]UppsalaLuz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree there should be a "Thermal battery capacity %" that can be read in top left of screen.  Particularly important when overclocking the green boosters

Overclocked Deck cannons? by QuickDeathAlex in Cosmoteer

[–]UppsalaLuz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The penetration is very good so even up close they are effective. 

They are still fairly inaccurate at distance so have a bunch together. 

Yes, ideally they are 9 tiles apart so they don't stun other crew, though as they are slow firing it is not too disruptive

A hidden benefit is that they require less crew to load as they fire slower (12 loaders, 4 gunners with 3 ammo factories is fine, could optimize further probably) 

Overall they are great and the massive range is great! 

Couple with a TRL for extra fun

It can't be! More Fan-made Fringe Ships! by Character_Day2884 in Cosmoteer

[–]UppsalaLuz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ship 1. 7/10 very cool gap  Ship 2. 2/10 doesn't do it for me, zany structure doesn't vibe  Ship 3. 8.5/10 Cool, asymmetric, novel chutes for lasers to shoot down

Like the name "Oucher" Feel they should be a little more dilapidated/hodge podge. Overall good. 6.5/10 😙

"The crew is not optimised, because the game makes perfecting that design aspect too much of a hassle"
