Hey, here's a thought: The Crystal Cruiser will be the only one of the classic ships to lack a new third starting layout. Sooooooooooo... Who else wants a purple crystal ship? And if you make new crystal weapons incorporating some of AE's new weapon functionalities, you could make those weapons' cry...

You know, I'm totally in for making the crystal vengeance deal no personnel damage. I think that's the finishing touch it needs to not be considered a hindrance, and after all, early-game it's designed to help deal with auto-ships. The only way I've found to nerf the Carnelian to an accepteable degr...

Hmm well, one way you could make your entire crew safe would be to put a blue option for an immune crew member. Say for example the lone person that asks if he can come aboard and that he isn't immune. Could have an option like "Have your hologram/engi welcome him on the ship" Could still...

I take it it's like Space Dandy's fourth episode.

In case of crew loss/treason, the crew member will ALWAYS be chosen randomly. So if you add an option for "AI avatars don't get sick, silly", then that option will prevent ALL crew members from being sick too: you can't protect only a certain crew member. I choose to think they have some b...

You made me think of having a lv2 engines check that, if not chosen, blows your whole ship up, simulating it got swallowed into the blackhole.

You know, the Beam Drone MkII was the reason I asked Sleepy about negative shield piercing on beams: if said shield piercing isn't weren't to be calculated when there are no shields to pierce, then said drone could be a 2-damage but -1-piercing. That would give even more variety, and the Ray Drone (...

Light Crystal has no effect on Zoltan shields. I didn't notice it was 30 perssonnel damage per shot, that explains why some of my strategies appeared riskier than their were... all is fine then, though I still think they could benefit from, instead of that, having double the breach chance, which wou...

I'm pretty sure I updated my files, but... do you still have the "limit to 1 bar" method in for when the enemy hacks your engines? While you're right in that it does prevent lv1 engines' from not being able to jump off, it's also pretty bullshitty for dodge tanks, and pretty much every mom...

Found a Holo-Mechanic with life support. Did you really let the player surrender before holo-ships intentionally? I thought their only purpose was to consume you. They do not show piety, and do not fear death for they are limbs of the nano-cloud. Any knowloedge on what happens when you give a negati...
