Aye, got MARS here too, not that I've have had to use it yet, but nice to have it there.

Here's the linky to the Lucike's collection, compatible with MARS:

You gave the link to MARS again.

From what I understand, maybe you can correct me on this, but MARS changes all turrets to need only 1 gun?

I have no idea, read the manual.

It might be, (REALLY big might) that it chooses the best gun for each turret depending what it is shooting at from the guns you are carrying.

I would like to blame Arc. He is what drove me to buy it, and Dowly to restart playing it.

Dowly · 11-30-10, 03:47 PM

Any advice on which factory to build next? Atm, I got L Wheat farm in Menelaus' Frontier with 1 CAG selling the stocks and a BoGas factory in Argon Prime again with 1 CAG selling the stock. Nice steady income, but think I need 3rd factory somewhere to boost my income.

Don't think I wanna go with hightech/weapons yet as I only got 3,2mil and part of it goes to buying a new freighter for the new factory.

Any secondary resource fabs to put into Paranid space? Could use a little boost with their rep.

Space Fuel Distillery, build it in the middle of Boron space for good measure too...

Tarrasque · 11-30-10, 04:01 PM

Damn it. Now you guys have got me back into it!

Goodbye Life!

Make another 300k and you could make that.

Or make medium stations and go for this

40k-100k an hour is not all that much given how much it all costs.

That's about as much as any Food complex makes.

Bah. My effin M5 scout was destroyed before he could even get the Explorer software. After I finish this mission the pirates are going to have to deal with my M6.

Dowly · 11-30-10, 04:43 PM

Hah, here's a funny story for you! So, I decided I'd make large rimes fab to Paranid space, so I hired a Argon Mammuth to ferry it there. Well, at somepoint I started to wonder where the heck is it as it should've been to the assigned sector already. Check my property list and it's not there... guess he found better things to do.. with my 1.9 million credits that is. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

Did you check your message log? Maybe he got destroyed.

The AI can be so fail sometimes. Just tried to dock with a terran Solar Planet L. My Nova Vanguard proceeds to fly into one of the Solar Panels. Bounces back with 25% shields left. Goes to try it again before I step in. I tell it to auto-dock again. And the bastard tries to fly into the solar panel again.

I finally manually dock it.

An Argon Mammoth? Would've expected this sort of dishonesty from a Boron, but an Argon...Hmm, I guess they're in cahoots anyway, you can't trust anyone from the Foundation Guild...

Dowly · 11-30-10, 04:49 PM

Nah, nothing in message logs. Wouldn't be such a problem, but my last save is from like 4 hours a go.
