disorder 1 Posted October 10, 2012 - You can use enemy facilities like fuel,ammo and repair. Top up before you dock and you save carrier energy. - Take out all the {P} production and {H} air facilities as you go, they fully rebuild automatically when you finish. If you really like blowing stuff up you can take everything out but the CC. - You can destroy firewalls instead of activating them, but they will get rebuilt. If you are fast and have good timing you can still win with this method. - You only have 1 deck gun, getting a new SHELL or PLASMA will replace the deck gun and top up the ammo for it. - Fuel gives 1 bar of energy, Fuel Pack gives 5. Fuel is more efficient in space and cost. Fuel pack is more efficient in time. - Mousewheel changes equiped weapons (main gun <> rockets) - Always check you have a hack capsule or building capsule in supplies before you head out, it takes a long time to wait for them if you forget and have to build at your destination. - You can equip and order supplies in timewarp.

Maybe they will rebuild, but it will take a while after you took the island. - You can destroy firewalls instead of activating them, but they will get rebuilt.

But as your are told in the tutorial this will not have a positive effect on hacking time for the CC so you may ignore them as well. See point one for rebuilding and becoming operable again.

disorder 1 Posted October 10, 2012 Maybe they will rebuild, but it will take a while after you took the island. Everything rebuilds instantly as far as I can tell. All facilties are back to normal and this causes a problem which I posted in the the Ideas thread. Basically the enemy takes my island and it flips from my weak island to being a strong one right away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basically the enemy takes my island and it flips from my weak island to being a strong one right away. Maybe for the REDFOR but not for the player. Just look at a destroyed Walrus garage or a Manta hanger after you took over an island: mouse context indicates inoperable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scepticer 1 Posted October 10, 2012 Turrets seem to be replaced instantly I think. Walrus garages and Manta silos are not. Dram mentioned somewhere that it is beneficial to spare infrastructure, makes island gain defense strength more quickly. I once destroyed a harbor and then took the island, I never saw it get connected to the network after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tontow 1 Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) I prefer to take out anything that can attack me as well as all the {P} production and {H} air facilities, because I spend all my time useing mantas to clear the way for my walrus that have no armor (spent all my money on manta stuff).
