what is your opinion?
I agree, there should be an a equivalent device with a higher level, for reactors with more than 25 MW the Solar panel array takes forever.PM wrote:Solar panel array is too slow to work on any reactor more powerful than 25MW. Patch spider is a higher level version of the patcher arm, but the solar panel array has no higher level device equivalent.
I agree, shields with less regeneration should have a lower standby power or even the power the in general.Atarlost wrote:Solar panels don't need a better version, they just need to be better. (...)

I think in addition to much faster energy gathering to avoid sun sitting the solar panel strategy could do with dropping the standby power on low regen shields so they're less power hungry.
Recovering energy from braking requires frictional braking. There is no friction in space. The only way to stop is to expend more energy thrusting opposite your motion vector. Not only can this not be implemented in the game at present, it should not be implemented when the engine comes to support events for every keystroke.

Yeah, Kinetic energy can be resulted when the vehicle brakes. If KERS would be adapted in Transcendence Ship, when every player brakes his ship, it refuel reactor without any fuels.
Yeah, you right. I know this but i didn't realize about this. Brake can be also presented in the game by shot fusion reaction to in front of ship.Atarlost wrote:Recovering energy from braking requires frictional braking. There is no friction in space.
