0 damage weapons for triggers are fine as long as you use common sense about them. Basically, don't try to work around the weapon rules by making a turret.
As for using the MIRV beta, I don't think I will. I don't want people "padding" their ships with 5 hp parts without consequence.

Re: A Tournament for Rookies and Veterans alike.
You can have altered turning speeds on drivers if they're slower, otherwise that would be an advantage. Rule of thumb: under no circumstances should any weapon setup outperform 6 stock blasters in terms of statistics.

Re: More of Calvin's ships
Heading out the door, so I'll download the pack later, but my first impression of the latest ship (Preying Mantis?) is damn, that looks nice. It reminds me of some of the nicer ships in the last beauty pageant.
Kudos on making octagonal look good.

Re: A Tournament for Rookies and Veterans alike.
Doogie, unless there were some objection, I was planning on using BSF4, the default that Sean made.
Starstruck, no worries, I don't think many people here hold grudges.

Re: A Tournament for Rookies and Veterans alike.
Do you mean for a turret or something? Sure. The more creative people get, the better this tournament will be, I think.
As long as it doesn't break the rule in half, I'm all for it.

Re: More of Calvin's ships
These look great. I'm afraid I don't have any criticism to offer. I look forward to seeing the rest that you have.

Re: Wakerz' fleet
The fleet is alright, though I have a few points of criticism. First, turn parenting lines off before taking screenshots. Secondly, don't use stock weapons and modules with SW sections. Horsemonster's weapons and the Svn_SW weapons are in the repack stickied in the custom content section. Thirdly, t...

Re: A Tournament for Rookies and Veterans alike.
Two or three weeks from two days ago is the deadline. I'm really just playing it by ear, so I'm giving everyone who says they're participating a reasonable amount of time to finish and then wrapping it up. No rush, just don't dawdle. I'm really glad to see a decent number of people participating. :-)

Re: A Tournament for Rookies and Veterans alike.
Yes, you can use more than six if you really want to.
Practically speaking, it would be better to just use six and alter the damage and reload to affect the volume of fire, but I don't think there's any other reason to use more than six. I leave it up to you though.

Re: Fledgling Ship Builder!
There's nothing wrong with SW sprites.
My best advice at this point is to just keep building.

Re: A Tournament for Rookies and Veterans alike.
Yes, all stats should be default. I'm allowing changes in the quantity of actual weapons, e.g. using three blasters with the same effective dps as six total.

Re: A Tournament for Rookies and Veterans alike.
Depends on what you mean by different. When I said stock, I meant 45, as they are by default. You can point them any which way you like, but don't change the actual value.Serithi wrote:I'm just finishing up my ship, i'll PM you any minute now... Is it alright if the turrets have different arc ranges?
