Keep forgetting to actually machine the mounting plate - hopefully I'll get around to it in my lunch hour tomorrow :D

OKAY, so here we go: All the components have arrived - so i did a lil design, and put together a cardboard mockup. Then I loooked at some wiring: Played with a bit of code ( This is still ongoing) And then once all that was working, tidied up the wiring, attached the diodes to...

That's a fantastic video. Kinda pity the guy that felt like ripping it off was an appropriate way to do things. He'll learn, one way or the other.

Oh my god that explains so much. Went from solid 60 FPS to 17-45 depending on general area. Thank you.

Any Space left in the PC clan? Pretty much only just got it installed lol

Oooh.. pretty. A colleage pointed out the Steel batallion controller sets, and now im super jealous. As a side note, the first set of switches turned up today, and they look and feel just like something you'd find on a 1940's fighter. I'm so happy :D

Looking forward to upgrading one of my Nox into a Hurricane - might also upgrade my Aquila into a carrack, but we'll see. Super tempted to pick up a little runabout fighter - maybe a hornet ghost or a Gladius. Then melt it all for the next concept sale, i guess. Again.

It's going to be super important to have excellent comms discipline - nothing worse that someone giving irrelevant details, or blocking the channel for someone with more important information

I've recently decided to sort myself out with a proper button box - since the ones online were all looking rather expensive, and far too polished (not gonna feel like the millennium falcon if everything is shiny and new, is it?) . Gonna be borrowing lots of old used switches and things from...

Definitely - Things like exploration have been added, and it seems creating your own outposts and the economics behind that are currently in the works.

Top down Fleet type game. Imagine Mount and Blade, but in space. Super cool, feels a nice blend of retro and modern - definitely worth dropping a few hours into during the 3.0 wait. http://fractalsoftworks.com/

Always :D

One question though - Am i gonna have to get a certification before i can use a type of gun? ;)

I'd definitely be up for joining on PC :D

I'd agree in sentiment with the original post, however there also needs to be some kind of incentive for the discord-only users to explore the forums a little more - from personal experience the discord is excellent, and very helpful, but newer players could very easily be overwhelmed or...

Kinda.. Disappointed. Luckily i didn't apply the CCU, so i've still got scope to sell it and hopefully buy a carrack when it next goes on sale :)

That's a nice touch. I like that. Also means you're going to have to drop somethings shields before you can launch or recover fighter, making anti-capital ambushes more effective, and good planning/ screen management important. Also, gotta take out its shields to really board it, so lower...

Melted my redeemer. Bought an upgrade for my Aquila. Used the change to buy-back an X85. Origin fanboy ftw. Yet to apply the CCU though - gonna wait till after some mroe info is released, plus i wanna play with the aquila in 3.0 first.

Very tempted to upgrade my current home ship from Aquila to 600, depending on how pretty it is. Might have to sell the redeemer to do so, but then i might be able to pick up a Superhornet.. We'll see :D

Awesome :D I'm thinking that PowerGrid, run via an emulator, might do the trick. Will have to see how integration of it and SC goes :D
