Its a balancing point between distance and precision, distance for safety from most guns and inability to hit with accuracy, or become swiss cheese with the chance of hitting engines, turrets, fuel tanks etc.

and more integrated with the economy, as you can sell and buy yolol scripts, honestly will be interesting to see what whacky things people be selling

I think its completely freeform, working off YOLOL chips that can be written, to keep performance somewhat managable on a server, unfortunately there is a delay between the execution of each line

This is assuming you can even get close enough to the large ship to get semi accurate shots in before getting ripped apart by flak, else you are just putting some holes in not essential areas. You have to balance distance with accuracy, which can be difficult when getting shot at by multiple...

True, but you don't always have to move your excessively massive ships, only when needed really. Most of the time it would be the smaller ships maintaining and gaining large resources

I follow the ideology of big, so basically as large as physically possible to build within the game's limits and with my group

At this point, nothing has really been proven, it's just opinions and guesses, just gotta wait for that early access release for answers

That task can be done with turrets on larger ships, the only advantage a smaller ship would really have is the ability get better angles on the hardpoints. But I will reserve judgement until a later date, just at this moment it seems larger ships are more viable due to armor and volume of fire

I personally don't think smaller ships are going to be very effective, at least from what I've seen so far of combat. But I shall wait for balancing and gameplay in the early access

There's always the option of adding more hinges, but at what point does it take away from visual look? Especially with a VTOL like craft

Just rotate the whole ship around the thrusters Take that physics!

Heresy

I believe the first step to reducing salt is to make the Holy Bolt as your Lord and Saviour All hail the bolt!

i am interested to see where this game goes

it was the scramble for the usernames im guessing
