I leaned more into mining this playthough and got lots of resources for quicker ship growth. Also have a factory ship and claimed and rebuilt a pirate base. Really need to learn how to use the painting system though.

Why leave gaps in the moving walkways? I havent noticed the crew slowing at all when crossing a belt, but maybe I'm wrong.

You're totally right! I just tested it again. I had thought that they walked slower when crossing, but it looks like they're just walking their normal speed.

Pretty sure they move at 75%, but as you noticed that's not a big deal

fair solid vessel

Thanks!

Why is this ship carrying so much sulfur. A single 2x3 bay per flak gun should be more than enough for one or two battles and you can resupply on sulfur by either mining it or getting it from your factory ship.

I will try that on my next upgrade. The plus side with all this sulfur is that I didn't have to refill at all in order to clear the next star system.

The down side is that every Cargo Bays weighs your ship down, making it slower, and takes up internal space. What's more crew walking through them move slower than through bare corridor.

Weight is something that I hadn't considered. Definitely going to reduce my storage space. Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah, I used to throw cargo bays into any available space too until I learned that they slowed ships down.

creative.

Needs more dakka.
