Well, I am fairly sure it had a capital "X". I'll check it out later.

EDIT: yep, you're right...my mistake. The turret is level 8.

Level X Ares Lightning Turret (Ion)

Level VII Ion Power Capacitor

The enhancement had no effect. The turret has no existing enhancements.

Thanks for the welcome :) I imagine a dockscreen would be used more as reconaissance rather than during combat. More for planning your next attack rather than while already running away. For instance: countering armor with specific weapon setups, choosing which angle to approach the foe to expose it...

5. :idea: Call it a "ping" (term used by submariners for the purpose target tracking) catridge/cannon - uses a device slot. Upon targeting a ship...a button in pressed, "p" (p is actually pause I know). The targeted ships' armor data would available as an option within the "ship screen" (press "s")....

I open the following for discussion and brainstorming. 1. Targetted ships show each armor segments' damage percentage or as a specific color, etc... 2. Player ship armor follows the same patterns as described in #1. 3. Both targetted and player ships armor segments flash when below 25% (or 10%, etc....

How much more game is there after passing through the Heretic SG? I am pondering the possibilities of finding more powerful weaponry before attempting the Antarctica mission. EDIT: Longzhu sphere didn't work on my ares plasma archcannon :( Ion power capacitor didn't work on my ion turret either :? ....

longzhu's repair weapons....awesome - I've got tons of those

I've upgraded everything else - guess it time to bump up my weapons 8)

I haven't found a station that repairs weapons....I've some damaged heavy hitters, but no fully functional ones

EDIT: repairs higher level weapons
EDIT2: found the heretic SG...perhaps there are some more advanced facilities there?

fusionfire and ares lightning turret

taiken-200 + 20% (fast recharge)

I'll try again....maybe second time is the charm

...oh and is there another way to restart besides self destruct? lol


EDIT: perhaps I'll switch out my turret for those nice ares nukes :crazy:

You were able to save the Antarctica?

....I'm not even able to put a dent in those ships that come

VUI?
visual upgrade interface?


...not a big auton buyer here - and lose all my wingmen too

I was thinking perhaps this could occur for the NPCs as well.... ....you won't be able to see which armor segment is about to breach, but the targetted ship's interface flashes red when they are about to blow. Though it would be nice to see which segments in the enemy's armor are damaged and to what...

Perhaps the entire ship armor interface blinks red with BREACH or something of the sort.

Pow!

One Xenophobe Worldship out of commission 8)

I had to hit it with an XM900 and fusionfire shot at the same time at point blank range.....34 armor left *wipes sweat off forehead*

Well, that makes sense. I suppose the AI have some smarts to them after all. I saved the the game while the worldship was at 88%....guess I'll just have to figure out which armor segment it is. The worldship unleashes so much firepower so fast - it blows through my shield in a couple seconds then al...
