chrisb 196 Posted June 13, 2015 Its available in very early access. I have been watching this a while, its certainly a hard-core type space sim. Hope he does well with it. Made by one man, labour of love. Didn't find any threads about it, if there is, please merge, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lenyoga 326 Posted June 13, 2015 This is amazing. I wouldn't want to pilot a ship for space battle, though - I can already feel the nervous breakdown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

x3kj 1247 Posted June 14, 2015 i dont understand why clicking 200 buttons just for starting is still a thing in a spacecraft... you know, how about a batch script that does it? It's always the same Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonci87 163 Posted June 14, 2015 I personally wouldn´t want a batch script to start a nuclear reactor :rolleyes: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ProfTournesol 956 Posted June 14, 2015 The push button thingy is a way to get immersed into the game, and to understand the mechanics of the ship. But it doesn't make the game, i'm curious to know what the game will be about precisely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

x3kj 1247 Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) I personally wouldn´t want a batch script to start a nuclear reactor :rolleyes: the algorithm is more failsafe then a human. Guess why industrial complexes/processes (chemical plants, power plants, etc) and other complex technical systems (airliners)are all automated and only have human personell overseeing them, just in case? Industrial error handling is also automated because a human can't be expected to react correct and quickly in a short time under high stress. Guess what happens when you are in battle and suddenly some system requires attention? Yeah, that's correct, you can't fly, fight and take care of the problem at the same time. Chances are you don't even know what to do. Manuall everything (no automation) just isn't logical for a spaceship. Ergo, by doing that it's just as unlogical as less complicated scifi games, but for different reasons... Edited June 17, 2015 by X3KJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I know what you are saying, space "sims" should really offer a greater deal of automation, or at least the option to automate certain things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
