Thank you.
My change recommendations would be 50- tons - 8 tons, 51-100 tons - 16 tons, 101-300 tons - 32 tons, 301-1000 tons - 64 tons, 1001+ tons - 128 tons

Treat it like a Detachable Bridge with Armored Bulkheads, 1 Mid Stateroom, 1t Common Area, 1t Biosphere.

Oh, these bastard things.

The bridge-alternative actually isn't that bad - it's just one table, same as the stock bridges - but my god, the automation nonsense! It's made worse with the K'Kree equivalents that're almost, but not quite, the same. Managing that in one table was an absolute nightmare...

Yea, that is bullshit. Those numbers and costs are just too high, especially when compared to what you can do with 3I automation and basic robots.

Hello all, I am looking for information as to the cooldown of jump engines. If a ship has enough fuel to make 2 jumps how long must they wait after exiting one jump before they can enter another jump? I seen it somewhere but can't find it now. If you know what book and page this is discussed on I would appreciate it.

I don’t think that is spelled out. Rather than ask it here, it deserves its own topic and then this could be changed to a link to that post, honestly. We can chew up the scenery on a subject like that and this topic isn’t meant to be for discussion.

Edit: I made a thread for this and here is the link.

Thread 'Quick Jump Turnaround'

@Hardwire asked this in the Ship Design Thread and I think it deserves its own thread, so I’m reposting it here.

Thanks, I dropped it in a place that I felt would get seen by those I think would know. Thanks for making the thread.
