Ahhhaahahahahaoh god. This is hilarious.
Okay. A little backstory. As you may know, I am performing horrible experiments in the name of science here. This one experiment called for the creation of as big a block of d1000 unguided missiles as I could reasonably handle.
I became sufficiently bored around the 500K mark. Note, this is on the server - so no admin commands, just pure determination and abuse of the blueprint purchase system.
The weapon was... quite underwhelming.
For one, the sheer amount of weapon blocks broke the tuning mechanic - no matter how I clicked the stat distribution did not change. The explosion radius was something around 60 - enough to take a bite out of a planet, sure, but nowhere near what would be expected of a missile launcher such as this. Oh sure, the ludicrous size of the thing meant that it fired something quite suitable for combat - the missiles were bloody fast and shot out at around 80RPM, not to mention the 900+ damage and ~60 destructive radius, so it was quite good at destroying planets despite not being able to do it in one shot.
But it was also ludicrously slow. I wasn't about to spend even more time amassing enough power and thrusters to make it fly at non-retarded speeds, so I just took whatever was available at the shop and steered it towards the nearest ice planet, which I proceeded to turn into a sort of a Bikini Atoll.
At that point I was quite tired, so I logged off.
Cue today. My attempt to log on is met with horrible slowdown and almost audible grinding of gears inside the servers (I could probably hear them if I weren't a continent and a half away). Apparently, when you materialize next to a half-million-block structure, the game starts encountering problems figuring out where to spawn you. And in the end, it decided to cut losses and spawn me right where the ship's core was.
Taking out a 16x16x16 chunk of the ship out to do so, core included.
So now I have a ~500K hunk of missiles that cannot be controlled - and technically cannot exist. Fortunately it can still be dismantled, which I will probably attempt. So, there. Have fun building superweapons, people, just make them out of small, manageable chunks. ^_^
