Would you like to see more timelapse ship building videos in the future?

@tact1calshot989 10 ай бұрын

What no one is talking about is power cells on each ship reactor and modules, never use more power cells than you ship can use, for instance I have 6 lasers and 3 rocket that full both weapon power cells to the top, but my engine and shield are not full. And my reactor is only 21 so I will never fill the power cells to they max. This is a bad idea, because the reload speed is significantly effected unless they are filled to the max. Same as shield . But shield is also hit points divided by 100 when max filled, hope this helps, it’s more beneficial to have weaker wepons with less power cell usage if you can fill them all the way up. Rather than one big burst and be depleted and have to wait forever to fill it up

For the widest variety of parts, build/modify at your own outpost with a large landing pad. That landing pad comes with a kiosk, and from what I understand, has access to all parts except for parts that can ONLY be purchased from a specific manufacturer.

@xavierdoesntmatter 10 ай бұрын

You can build all parts, even ones that you'd consider a 'specific manufacture', with exception of the rare high end parts. Imagine basically building a car in your own garage. You can order almost any part you want including a lot of parts for a mustang but you might actually have to go to the company itself for that super high end rare engine that they don't ship to random people.

A quick way to identify the non-attached component on your ship when building it is simply doubleclick the ship, as if you want to paint it. The entire ship will turn red but the "unattached" part will not, it will stay the normal colour. Basically it will not be selected. This way you can identify where the problem is

The main complaint I have with ship building/modification is that there is no way to know what the inside of the ship is going to be like until you commit to a valid build and go run around inside it. There are a ton of habs that have a bunch of variations and no way to know what they're going to look like. They need a preview popup or maybe just an x-ray view so you can see the internal layout of them when you're cycling through the variants.

@waterpiglet9176 10 ай бұрын

When you want to change/modify a ship you have stolen and registered, it always pays in the ship builder to look at whether there are any parts that are higher than the class you can build yet before you delete them. So if you are still only able to build A class look for any B class parts on the ship that you could keep and utilise rather than just delelting everything. The higher class parts you do have cannot be duplicated though.

i learned a couple neat tricks here. some thoughts on weapons if youre only using beams to do dual damage youre wasting alot of time trying to kill ships and when there is multiple high lvl ships youll see what i mean. the hull damage does not work until the shields are not broken first. Now personally i do not use missiles cause of reload times, but i have a gauss beam that does hull and shield damage particle beams to break the shield and 2 cannons for hull. so can always fire 2 sets of weapons and it melts even ships 2x my level. im at 80 hrs in and am having a blast. thanks for the vid. Oh i forgot to mention if youre buildin a large ship having the bigger engines increase mobility massively and is worth the cost of 10 top speed not to mention the thrusters are way more responsive, i personally only have half engine power in battles with fully charged weapons, but the turning radius with is super important to keep lock ons.

An easy method of finding the Unattached Ship Modules, (at least on PC, consoles you'll have to translate yourself what the controls are but the method is sound) So, find the majority ship chunk you know is attached, often its the cockpit for me. Double-click to select all attached pieces, and Move it. Whatever is left, should be your trouble-makers. Simply reattach where they go, and your ship will auto-center back on its bulk body majority so the "center" since its relative doesn't matter. Just snap your unattached bits in, and you're golden.

Quick tip: if you have unattached module, use the select all button on the ship and move the whole thing, and the unattached module wont move with it. Easy. Also, sometimes a module with internal space like habs, landers, or cockpits, etc, mighr be attached BUT arent actually connected with other internal areas of the ship, so its treated as detached. Landers especially because some have ladders and a hatch that attach to the top but other have a door which attaches behind it.

Two notes, Delete will delete the part selected and the part hovered. It's really annoying and has caused me to mistakenly delete stuff and then not find out until later. Habs have a lot of variance. From what I've been able to tell when connecting Habs it will delete the doodads in the area where a door is created. Play around with this because some things can be desirable or not. For example there is a armory, I believe it's stroud 2:1, that depending on the end of the armory you connect a circular door to it will delete the entirety of weapon racks whereas the other end of the room is just a sitting area that deletes the chair. Play around with your habs first!

agree 100% save in progress feature, biggest reason a lot of places sell different stuff and also i just spent like 2hrs building a massive ship and would have been nice to save for peace of mind like game crash or worse something irl

Hey this may help people who have the bug about parts not being attached - if you select all you can grab and move the connected pieces out of the way leaving only the non-attached pieces

@jordanbtucker 9 ай бұрын

So, when you hover your mouse over an attachment point, you can press the G key to cycle through modules that can attach to that point. The game does not make it obvious, but you can also do this with a controller by putting the cursor over the attachment point, holding LT and RT, and pressing A (or holding L2 and R2 and pressing X on PlayStation controllers).

Cool Vid, thanks! Just a small mismake: the max length is 80m resp. 40m to the middle of the lines.

Double click on a part to select all attached parts, very useful when painting the ship. Also can help if you get the "module not attached" error, that module will not be highlighted when you double click.

@yabuking84 10 ай бұрын

To reveal which module is not attached, double trigger the right should button for controller on any part of the ship and the one not in red is the detached module.

Just a quick note on the ship module not connected error. You can double click the whole ship to select all and all parts that are attached will be green and the parts that ur not hovering over and unattached parts will not be green.

1:04 if you double click your ship it highlights all the components and the parts that aren’t attached will be highlighted in a different color.

@WestOzCards 9 ай бұрын

The way to see non-attached modules is (on PC) double click (or on console its click one of the control sticks in) on a main part of the ship and then everything attached will highlight, then scour around for what isn't highlighted.. I found that it's always, one of those little attachment plates that are tiny and hard to see as it is covered by another part.

My modded Razorleaf (the ship from the Mantis quest) is outfitted with no less than six particle beams in a single weapon bank. That is withering firepower! Note that the Razorleaf comes with two of the best class A engines in the game.

For some reason I can’t replace my reactor or shield… I bought much stronger ones but even after installing them they dont “take effect”. Stuck at 3 shied power even though I bought one that goes full power. Same with reactor, bought one that goes full bars but still stuck ar default for the Razorleaf

@@lonelypancake5979 This sounds very strange. I would recommend deleting ALL the parts of the ship till you have NOTHING left. (Do not exit the build screen.) Then rebuild the ship from scratch with all the parts you want. Check your error messages frequently. The errors should be things like missing engines and the like because you haven't installed them yet. Keep watching your error messages as you put gear back to make sure no 'new' ones appear. Remember your components cannot exceed the class rating of your power plant. If your power plant is class A and you are trying to install a class B shield, that will not work.

@@panpiper yep, I’ve just figured it out. It was a mix of the error messages and a bit of my own dumbassery… I’m all set :)

@nerdoutreachprogram5358 10 ай бұрын

You can buy ships with Skill locked pieces already attached. The Shieldbreaker for example has parts on it you wouldn’t be able to get by themselves without starship design 4.
