Even throwing in a few more layouts using the current system would be a much needed addition. I really hope they expand on the layouts. This would of course involve a rework of the current system and is not something that could be done overnight. With a check built in place to ensure that each block piece connects to another. How can i increase my system points for more guns and stuff. That said, no point in having a giant ship that cant defend itself. Or a system where you click on the grid to select blocks until you have the layout you want. instead of having a few ships in my fleet i wanted to fill out all the build spots on my first ship and make it a big ol B. Probably best to have a system were we either select the amount of blocks, then select the layout from there. When looking at these numbers to allow each and every single layout possible is not best support via the way we select ship layouts now (clicking through each one). 118 if we wanted to allow for a 9 block ship. Making a grand total of 117 ship layouts. Those additional layouts totally 95 between 5 - 8 blocks. So let us take it to the current fleet max of 8 blocks total.
Some people would rather have a single big ship instead of lot of ships. That is 22 layout options available without going over the current limit of no larger than a 4 block ship. Keep in mind a few of these ones are in the game already. The ways I want to build my ships are not very well supported with the layouts available.īreaking down the layout options there are so many opportunities. Why are there so few options? We only get 6 layouts?! Honestly I don't really like the options available. Out of the 3x3 grid to select a ship layout. Mousing over the System Point and Core Point icons show how many points are available and ship totals.Okay so this is really bugging me as something that seems to really limit players freedom to design ships. This is the maximum System Points a ship can have.Ī ship System points and Core Points number can be seen by clicking on it on the top left menu. The biggest ship size in the game, the 3x2, made of 6 size tiles, allowing a combination of System Cores totaling a maximum of 72 System Points. Each Size tile allows one Core Point, which in turn allows a combination of System Cores totaling (Number of Size Tiles) x 12 System Points.Ī small ship made of 1 size tile, called a 1x1, gives 1 Core Point, which allows a single X1 System Core providing 12 System Points.Ī medium horizontal ship made of 2 size tiles, called a 1x2, has room for 2 X1 System Cores or 1 X2 System Core, for a maximum of 24 System Points.
A size tile is made of a 26x26 matrix of smaller tiles on which ship hull is built and all ship components are placed. ship design ideas hi i was wondering if theres any website or anything that had designs of peoples ships uploaded (from small to large ships) or if theres a tool of something that i can use to plan how i'd like the end product to look like and work from the ground up in game. Costs 4 Core Points.Ī ship is made of big tiles called the Size tile (the number and dimensions of size tiles is called "canvas size" in the popup help in game). System Core X3: 48 System points 4x2 tiles and 4x1 walkway (4x3 footprint). 3x2 tiles and 3x1 walkway (3x3 footprint). 2x2 tiles and 2x1 walkway (2x3 footprint). System Cores are mainframe computers that automate and provide command and control of ship functions. These points are not consumed but allocated, when a combat structure is dismantled, this cost is recovered for future uses.
Once the maximum System points are used, the Player cannot build more of them. The System Points are used in these structures and their system point costs are:
