Accelerating to C 20 times? You mean near c? (0.999999999999c) yes thats what I ment Ok, only one problem. The tyranny of the rocket equation. An example if you want a .335c ship, you'd need a mass ratio of 43. If you want the same velocity using Deuterium-deuterium which has half the exhaust velocity you need twice the mass ratio? Wrong, In fact you need a mass ratio of 2417. For a ship with 20c of Dv, you'd need a mass ratio using D-He³ of 4.5e97. The observable universe weights around 1e53 kg.... |

Time for amat beam core We need photon drives powered by fusion reactors. |

This is bizarre, does it work fine without the fusion stuff?

Time for amat beam core You can only temporarily escape the wrath of the rocket equation. But using the new redesigned Beam core engine. With an exhaust velocity of 0.63c makes interstellar travel a bit easier. First stage: Dry mass: 1MT Wet mass: 80MT Dv: 0.9c Time dilation: 3 Second stage: Wet mass 1MT Dry mass: 12,8kT Dv: 0.9c |

Still Crashing still even after steam validated my files. I just wanna play with torchships :C That makes no sense at all. What is even in your Data Cache? |

Me neither, anyone who has some real expertise on errors? I fixed it as it was missing stuff for D-D Fusion. It's just that your ship I put in my import folder isn't showing up. |

It seems like the game did fucked up the code for the ship, look under "Payloads". the game only remembered the armor code. I am trying to fix this immediately. |
