Greetings! Enjoying the mod very much! Had several issues with the game crushing. It produces the same type of error - Microoft Visual C++ Runtime Library. In the src/rapidxml/rapidxml.hpp line xxxxx* expression: text The lines are different, this time it was 1383, previous times were different, but...

This ship sounds fairly overpowered...

I have downloaded and played the mod several days ago, before the thread suddenly disappeared...
It feels somewhat easy, bit easier than the RedTail ship, but not very overpowered.
Nice ship overall.

Yes, work is being done.

Taken me 7 tries to get out of sector 1, but when I did, it was awesome. Great ship!

Last month I've spent all my dedicated project time by trying to animate fire-fighting sequence by throwing buckets of water. Just can't do it, too few pixels for my skill level I will just have to do a water hose...

2x Ion Blast MKII + Fire beam + 2x Auto-loader
Beam drone + defence I + drone recovery
All systems, all maxed

Won the game with it several times. Feels bit too easy, and not really due to RNG. Good ship to just go on and BURN!! everything for one's enjoyment.

Chinese people started using man-lifting kites from about 7th century and 17th century Japan used kites for infiltration. Granted, gliders are different from kites, but not by much. The main reason for not including Crystals is not the suits, which are plausible, but the lockdown ability. EDIT - Aft...

The flooding is the replacement for the vacuum, so it wouldn't work. Guy in diving suit would be really hard to visually differentiate from guy in armor (rockman) using just 25x25 pixels... And then they just begun using diving bells. The suits arrived about 200 years later.
