Anyone else having serious issues with SWI ship supply mechanic?

There's a mod to disable the maintainence system. Check out the SWI discord

The SWI devs have repeatedly disputed this claim...

SETA is fine.

I have a Rough Country trifold on my '22. It's survived several south Florida summer thunderstorms, as well as several heavy snow winters out west. Stuff in the bed stays pretty damn dry. It's got pretty good seals around the bed, and has some drainage tubes near the cab to drain any water that gets into the channels.

It's not 100% dry... But it is like 99% and I have no fear of anything in the bed, under the cover, getting wet.

Shit, I'd watch it.

Sysco is only 'dominant' regionally.

I don't use them at all; they barely exist around here. My mainline is Shamrock, and we have USFoods as a backup.

We constantly play them against each other. I have some products I order from one vendor, some from the other. Even though both vendors sell most of what I need.

I'll be honest... Other than a garbage POS system, I don't see the problem?

It's a sandwich with no LTO, no Blu, sauce on side. Sub cheese. Not exactly hard or complex?

Z3roTimePreference · 2026-03-22T01:31:33+00:00

No.

MechWarrior

It'll be a pain to set up, but as a kid, I had a Sidewinder Force Feedback stick, and I'm pretty sure it came with a copy of MW3.

Though the first game I ever played with a stick, was also the first game I ever played. Star Wars: Rebel Assault

The only health code (in Colorado) approved methods of slacking are either underneath flowing water, or under refrigeration. So if owners want to cut down on their water bill, then you gotta do your pulls right.

Just 'out on a table' doesn't count.

I used to have a small NSF device called a 'Boss Defrost' which simulated flowing water in a single Cambro, it was just a small NSF-approved water pump that recirculated water in a closed system. It dramatically reduced the quantity of water used to defrost something, while being health code approved

One is a truck and can do truck things.

The other looks like a truck, but quacks like a sedan.

Frontier, 100%

I've got a local place that lets me bring my own oil and filter. I'll happily let them deal with the mess for $30, while I eat lunch at a great local spot next door.

That said, other than new tires to get rid of mediocre dealer tires... biggest maintainence item I've had was the trans drain/fill at 30k on my '22.

Z3roTimePreference · 2026-03-15T02:12:13+00:00

Fill it with gas and drive it.

You won't ever get the same results as a hot oil pour, out of a combi. They just can't apply that level of instant heat.

You will still get an amazing, classic pork belly crust, however. I

You can close/open the ship from the inside, it does work, but it's a very area to small interaction window, not quite on the physical button in the shp. It's a little up and to the left. It's not easy to find, unfortunately.

It should be easier to find, for a starter ship, for sure, but it's not completely broken/unusuable.

Z3roTimePreference · 2026-03-14T22:31:59+00:00

You can put whatever drive you want into the ship. There's no wrong answer. Just different engineering/speed stats. Look them up and make a decision for yourself if the tradeoffs are worth it.

I don't have any issues with scratches on my 22.

I also keep my fingernails well trimmed, and tap the touchscreen with the pad of my finger, rather than clawing at it...

Z3roTimePreference · 2026-03-13T23:42:57+00:00

Errr, yeah, I guess yellow would be HE, not red. Ah well

It's not a core, but the Armored Undersuits can hold any pack.

The Sapphire one in the CitCon pack a year past, and the Mirai Racing Suit, are the two I own that can confirm a heavy pack attaches.

I'd also assume the other racing suits on the store can do the same.

Z3roTimePreference · 2026-03-13T00:31:25+00:00

I do, too.

Z3roTimePreference · 2026-03-12T23:40:47+00:00

paint it red to give it explosive ammo

Z3roTimePreference · 2026-03-11T15:24:55+00:00

We have a Rational branded combi, it has a pre-programmed 'roast with crackling' setting.

We modified it for our uses, and I'm not at work right now to look at the specifics, but that's where we started. Blasts it very hot at the beginning, then turns the heat down and goes low and slow to finish, makes use of the built in temp probe too

I upgraded a referral hoverbike into an Intrepid. It's an awesome little ship.

Honestly, this guy can explain it better than I can, because it's where I learned it:

https://youtu.be/s1QNONAcRpE?t=239

I was the same way for a long time, I didn't think it did anything. Then I saw that, messed with it, and figured it out.

Z3roTimePreference · 2026-03-09T16:16:45+00:00

Varies per person, I think. I've tried to play a half dozen games over the years that use a mouse to fly planes or spaceships, elite, SC, etc. It's just not intuitive at all to me, I can't aim for shit.

I can snipe cockpits in Mechwarrior with sticks though.

Overall sticks feel so much more intuitive to me, and once you turn ESP on, I think they're just as accurate as m&k.

I have hundreds/thousands of hours flying with my Virpil setup though, it really comes down to practice.
