That's just numbers in a database.

It is indeed a game, with game mechanics. It is also supposed to be "the best damn space sim, period." The two are not mutually exclusive. Ship stats where there is no jousting isn't going to happen, nor should it. That concept is completely unrealistic. Mallory's "Big Wing," the "Thatch...

I've played Traveller with those rules. Yes, they take a little getting used to, and the effect was partially mitigated by the 6G limit on Acceleration (and most non-military ships were well below that). Lasers, plasma and fusion weapons fired at the speed of light but had limited range...

Space is vast and empty. The only placce where those actions are practical, in the real universe, is near a choke point. (Important planet, wormhole, station, etc.) I have no issue with that. The game works under those circumstances. This is supposed to be "The best damn space sim, period!"...

Limiting speed in space still makes no sense to me. The handwavium for this speed limit defies physics.

Master modes was featured at Citizen Con. Master modes on the tracker says "Implementing new modes to vehicles to manage a their speed, components, and role-specific functions. " The task was complete last September with no additional work listed or planned. But I can't find it on the release...

Now on a more practical vein. Our Fleet and the reasoning behind it. Note this is not one fleet but two. My wife and I started 6 years ago. We have both, since, become disillusioned. We play games together so our fleets are designed to be played together. Our primary goal is to be able to do...

If your interest is Exploration, then the Terrapin or 315P would be the starter ship for that profession. I don't see exploration being all that useful, YMMV. Jump point sizes are being refactored. Bigger ships have faster Quantum Drives and longer ranges. Remember that they can bring an Idris...

Unless you are shipping the ships there, I don't see that working. Remember, bigger ships, as we've been told, are faster in Quantum in addition to having longer range

I find the idea of having to offload the modules to load and unload them highly unlikely. The interior lower parts of the walls are textured as ramps.

Or instead of flying your explorration ship to a new system, fly your transporter ship to the new system with the ships you want to use there. For example, load up a Liberator with a 315P or Terrapin, a Vulture and an Arrow and fly to the new system. Now you can explore, do combat do salvage...

One additional thought. I have seen nothing to suggest you get to place your ships all over the place at start. I have seen hints that all your stuff starts where you start. You get one personal hangar at start, regardless of how many you have that are listed with your purchased ships. So...

Purchase, in game, of an Aurora, Mustang, Titan or 300 series should be trivial.

First ship: Starter ship, probably Avenger Titan is still the correct choice though the 300 series is a good choice as well. If you believe they have earned your money and can afford to spend more money then. Second Ship: The starter ship in your chosen profession. Learn from my mistakes. :)...

They can't currently be opened but they are there. How would you load cargo without ramps?

Garage Ramp Module 1 Starboard Ramp Module 1 Port Ramp Module 2 Starboard Ramp Module 2 Port Ramp Module 3 Starboard Ramp Module 3 Port Ramp The placement of the elevator is why it doesn't fit.

i thought 3.18 was the April Fools joke.

With 7 ground entrances, and 4 airlock entrances, not on the ground, I see no point in an additional entrance for a ship with a crew of 6. Off setting the corridor is interesting but not, likely, practical. The lower deck is narrower and has less length than the second deck, so that wouldn't...
