@CC:
If I haven`t done it, it`s still unavailable to me.

Built a Mess Hall at your research base. You'll need it. While it builds, finish of the other strands.

[LouisdeFuines]

I will do so!
The mess hall is already under construction!


Can someone tell me, how I find out, what armament can be mounted to the aircrafts?
I`m a little confused about the descriptions of the Bootypaedia.

I`m a little confused about the descriptions of the Bootypaedia.

There are 4 classes of 'armament': Light, Heavy, Missile and Shadow Tech.
You should read the description carefully, it's all there.

There are four different types of slots:
STC - Used for special tools that will make your ship faster, tougher, etc. No weapons as far as I can recall.
Light - Allows mounting of light craft weapons. 25mm - 50mm cannons, Charger Lasers, etc.
Heavy - Allows mounting of heavy craft weapons. Spike Rockets, 120mm Cannons, Railguns, Gatling Lascannon, etc.
Missile - Allows mounting of missiles. Seagulls and whatever you research later.

When you check a ship description, it will tell you how many slots of each type it has (not mentioned = zero). If you check a weapon description, it will tell you the type of the weapon.
If you click on a weapon slot, it will show all the available ones for that slot type. Early weapons are mentioned above.

Many thanks! Could confirm all of this!

The burrow gives me questions:
According to the Bootypaedia it should hold space for 10 creatures.
When looking into the one of my 2 burrows I have 9 creatures in it. Why can`t I dismantle the second one?
The blood dogs seem not to appear in the burrow.

It's a bug. Workaround: https://youtu.be/wvD72flgzUM

[legionof1]

The burrow has creature, personnel living spaces, and storage space,allmust be unused before the building can be removed

So you just sold some of the dogs and that was it?




Oooooooookay, so I now face Star Gods with shields the first time.
Is this shield like extra HP or do I have to know anything else about it? I`m using the CAWS and Lasguns.

[Solarius Scorch]

Yes, shields are basically extra HP (which regenerate every turn and losing doesn't cause bleeding).
However, bear in mind that they have their own resistances.

[Ethereal_Medic]

Star Gods and several other factions have shields. Only the guardians (red hoodies) have personal shields. 120 flat, 40 regeneration/turn
Personal Shields work like bullet sponges and reduce incomming raw damage.
Once the shield is down, the actual protection of the target comes into calculation.

Type 1 shields glow yellow and have damage reduction against laser (50%)
Type 2 has no weaknesses
Type 3 has no bootypedia entry or I simply can't find it^^

All shields are vurnable to EMP damage.

[LouisdeFuines]

Is there a certain value I need to overcome to get "through" the shield, like armour?

Or is the "120 flat" that value?

[Ethereal_Medic]

It's just 120 HP. Extra health that just needs to be depleted. Like a good buckshot to the face.

[LytaRyta]

Jul-26-2018 (for 0.99J4):
- fix: Alliance Advisors can be properly sold/transferred
- fix: No more random ghost girls at the beginning of a new game

Should fix it. You still need to start a new game tho.

One question about the shrine ship:
According to the entry in the Bootypaedia it should contain at least one church reverend. But I got one or two church matrons instead. Has something gone wrong?
