With a fleet of 97 of those you could swoop in and suck the atmosphere off an NPR's planet in minutes.

Too bad Venus doesn't have a 'vapor' hydrosphere, no second Earth.

Wondering if I have an actual bug or if I'm just doing something stupid.

It's been like this since I set it up. That packet has stayed in the exact same spot as the asteroid and it is the only one. As you can see, the mass driver is sending minerals somewhere but there is nothing showing on the map. 6 Auto-mines and 6 Drivers.

[forsaken1111]

Looks buggish to me.

[Tarran]

I don't think its a bug, its just a smaller packet, add more mines Eduren! the amount the mass drivers can take is way more than what they are currently mining!

Edit; I don't know where I got the idea that there was 6 mass drivers but one mass driver can still take much more.

Yes but even if there's only a little they should go ahead and send it. I have mass drivers firing 20-30 ton packets sometimes without incident.

Depending on the timings involved, try advancing time by 5 seconds. You should now be able to see the mineral packet in flight to wherever you are sending it.

Spent all day building my ship designs wiki page.

Check it out!

[Journier]

My only complaint is you made it like an AAR on the wiki.

why didnt you just call it Ship Design Examples? without the empire info etc?

Probably alot more useful for a new player to see those designs if they knew what the page was about..

Uh, the page is directly connected to the Ships section of the wiki (right next to Steve's and Erik's), and the AAR-ish passages are meant to show how the vessels were used and, if applicable, show flaws discovered when they were put into practice.

I think he meant including empire details like name, current game year, etc which are entirely irrelevant to ship design theory.

? i dont know of any "ship" section of the wiki?

There is a ship design section for the tutorial which actually explains how to build the ships.

Game year gives an idea of the level of technology a player could have by then, and is also a measure to check if the page is being updated. As for the empire's name, well... Erik did it, so I did it myself!

It's right there on the main page.

[Journier]

lol could you have put it any further down on the wiki page? I didnt think youd put it below the Rules part.


eta- this page is old, was it always linked there?

Yes. I didn't put it there.
