ODST: I'll try lengthening the sensor part. I don't really understand what you mean about shifting the core, however. bl3d4: Thanks! However, the ship is meant to be a light destroyer. So I'm not planning on making it much bigger any time soon. However, as I said above I'll experiment with enlarging...

Back from a long hiatus

I left ship building a very long time ago, at a time when changing colors was "new and different." Well, things sure have changed. Anyways, I've rediscovered BSF and here are the fruits of my labors. I don't care if you tell me they suck, just be sure to tell me why they do. :wink: "S...

This is a lot to ask this early on I know, but do you think we will ever see a co-op mode for this game? SHMUP's are great games to play with a friend.

I'm really starting to wonder if I should abandon the Turtle and build a Demeter whore instead. Slim shape as suggested, and just tons of Demeters. I have a feeling it might just do a better job of "support" than the Turtle.

Thoughts?

Do you mind if I borrow the basic idea of the Gestrin? I'll give credit, of course, but they're just exactly what I had in mind for something.

+ I just love all the rest of the tiny ships. Very cool.

Hmm, was considering getting rid of the Rorschachs (sp?) and you just convinced me. Not too worried about the speed vs. impeder's, in testing they seem to do their job just fine and besides they're for the help of other ships, too. But I see your reasoning with megabeams. They've been replaced with ...

This is the vastly improved Turtle. I'll be gone till Monday, so here's the ship:

Just my viewpoint based on watching the two videos for the previous mothership battles. One team had their ships speed somewhat evenly spread out over the entire range, from barely mobile heavies to sprinters. What I saw happen is that the mothership got to separate the ships and take them out in g...

It says "weapons/modules." On the rules page, leading me to believe that you can have a max of 2 weapons and 2 modules per section. I think? If not, I might have to revise the design a bit.

Ah, I was doing it right. Thanks for the clear-up.

BTW, here's my ship, the turtle.

I would upload it, but for some reason the database isn't working right now.

So, should we get organized on what we plan to build? I'm gonna use a "support" type ship. Low on shields, but with demeters, gravity deployer-thingies, platform deployers, etc. Would it be a good idea to add plenty of flak? My ship could be used as sort of an "anti-projectile" t...

Ah, at last you arrive Novae, er, Venator.

I've always liked your ships. But what happened to the big, newer dreadnoughts you made?

Thanks a bunch.

And BTW- it's not like I didn't try using the search option, or checking the stickies, or browsing the forum. I just couldn't find it.

Really quick question: resizing weapons

I've looked everywhere, but can't seem to find the answer to this. How do you resize weapons? Shift + K or Shift + I doesn't seem to work. So how do you?

Thanks a lot.
