ooh, is there a way to start up a "Fix my Ship" series? would love to see the different ship designs from the community.

My key takeaway from this is not to use structures to move the armour out to reduce weight, nor crew management (operators' dorms out of the way), nor use of internal armour to protect yourself when a cannon is destroyed. Nope, it's the fact that YOU CAN CHANGE THE FUCKING MIRROR MODE AXIS DIRECTION. I was getting so frustrated having to handle symmetry on diagonal ships manually... 😕

Real great guide. Very informative and efficient with how it gave its information. Not like a lot of guides that go on for waaay too long.

The conveyer belts are really good for making an assembly line build for the cannon and cannon ammocrafter, just look at the inside of the space station to get an idea ✌🏽

So ive been scouring youtube for these kind of experienced player tip and it is GOLD sir. Stuff like overarmouring and the bed placement was exactly what i was doing, following the power and crew bars closely. Youve helped me immesurably sir.

I liked and sub ! You built in what ... 20 minutes, a better ship than me after hours of refiting my old ship... nicely done. I am going to start over with your advices in mind.

Subscribed, looking forward to a video going over the crew roles.

This guy knows his stuff and knows how to explain it

Great tutorial. Nothing new for me, but thank you for helping the community. Keep at it. :)

I did not know you could makethe mirror diagonal, that's gonna be such a timesaver. Thank you!

Great video.

Best basic build guide. Very good job! (note: includes diagonal building guide)

Nice work, love the designs

Thank you for this, I rarely see any guides that could fix my problem with larger ships since I love making Capital ships (since most of em are really outdated and some facilities are too different from today like Crew rooms are now had only few doors so placement are cruxial), and compared to Starsector this game is too difficult to fly a big ship since most of the time their speed became the bottleneck. Very helpful guides and I need all of it since my builds always scks at Manueverability and efficiency, also I always looking at the recommended power and crew which is why sometimes I'm seeing Idle crews and worst is power outage on thrusters and shields. Thanks a lot for this.

I’ve learned so much from you! Thanks for the videos. =]

Good job.

Great Video

This is such a good video! Very informative

Nice quick video

My dude, thank you so much. I started this game yesterday and I was already overwhelmed with all the possibilities of ship design and building, so your videos helped a lot. :) What I struggle a bit with: Lets say you start career mode and do your first missions: How do you expand efficiently? You will not be able to build this ship like that immediately, but you need to grow it bit by bit. How do you do that the best/efficiently? My ships always look like some abominations, haha ^^ Maybe you have some tips for that? I think, personally, this will be the thing that most people will struggle with when they start the game.

wow that some solid ship u build :D

Very helpful subbed and belled for sure!

I didn't realize you could change which asset was stored where in the factory. There's a lot I've not yet figured out, but that's a neat thing to see.

Thank you ^^

Thank you for sharing a nice guide. Keep up the good contents. Could you please make a mining and factory ship guide. 🙏

Yoo you helping me so much out thank you 😅😂👍

HOLY SHIT, THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED THANK YOU, YA EARNED A SUB.

Wait you can change the mirror line haha, btw nice video i learn a lot.

hey new player here, need guidance on weapon synergies, when to upgrade from small lasers to big laser/ is multiple smaller cannons better then larger cannon? any input be great :)

Hmm no cargo rooms? 80% of my ship is just for cargo (a front-loaded hauler). Is there a way to play with just pure fighter ships?

how do you display flight directions, value and mass in the ship editor ?

Wait are you just using turn and burn to slow down?

By recreating your ship I was able to gete a little bit into your skin, kuddo! I mean this is pretty cool, but what about hyperdrive, and point defense ?

This vid is really educational, keeping these tips in mind will help me a lot (especially the change mirror axis!). But I have one question (and it's probably stupid lol), how come the first ship you show doesn't have backwards facing thrusters? Is it smart enough to just stop powering thrusters when close to where you want to be during battle?

There was some pretty good stuff, change the axis, armor weaving, door and crew management etc. but one thing bothered me :D the first "bad ship design" was so freaking bad, it must have been setup to make everything wrong, correct? Because no one would build it like that! It could be tweaked with some minor adjustments to a okayish ship.

i ran into following scenario: i have a battleship, built horizontal, and a scoutship build diagonal. the scout ship exploded, so i experimented arround with explosive charges and rebuild it onto my battleships rear, exploded the charge, recoloured the scout and did the crew management etc. now my diagonal ship flys sideways.... is there an easy way to fix this without rebuilding the ship? like completely convertingthe ship and its movement directions from vertical to diagonal? nevermind i found it out lol flight direction is at the ships hamburger menue and automatically turns arround the build menue too

how can it go to hyperspace or other stars without hyperspace module?

*11:32* Relying on the newly added vector reverse thrust and not putting any backwards-firing engines? Not wise. Otherwise yeah, this ship works perfectly. Another thing though, if your ship has way too much armor on the front, more than it will ever use, I suggest that one puts decorative (And weight-reducing) structures/holes on the SIDES of the armor nose, not the dead center that most of your enemies will be firing through to get to your vulnerable parts.

i still don't understand how to build diagonal ships, i don't have the direction option in my game and cannot find how to enable it. like am i just dumb or what?

Pretty new...how do you turn on all the weapons and engines in test mode. Not sure how to do that. You also said you would explain WHY you put a disruptor between the lasers like it was for a specific reason but you never did say.

A laser ship that can only fly forward unable to keep its distance is kind of suicidal tho. For that tactic, you might want to use cannons.

How did you rotate your screen in build mode? When I build a triangle shaped ship, it seems to think I built it in a "square" shape, so it always flies sideways instead of straight. :(

Can you make a video about the missile launchers? i want to make a decent long range support ship since i already have a ship that tanks all of the damage from the enemy AI i just need a decent ship that can pound the pirate bases from long range

the crew cabins are blocking the easiest way to the back thrusters, anywho, good ship

Where can I download this ship?

if i show you a screenshot of a ship without any interior. can you give me a design what should be where if i tell you what i want the ship to have?

I need help, after I build second ship I can’t fix the first ship without building another second ship!!! Please helllppp!!!

Can you creat a little ship 'o' ?

Wait, so large shields clip, but small ones dont?

why dont you put engines facing forward for braking?

No rearwards thrusters?

The annoying thing in cosmoteer is you gotta manually produce things in factories or buy them (ammo and HE missles) in the stations

🙃

What are the Priority numbers on each of your crew management tabs

Copied this ship design to the letter my ship only uses to engines and flies sideways... no idea how to fix

A barrage of missiles to the side of the first ship - ammo exploded, engines exposed, shields either damaged or destroyed too. Not that much of a good design, huh
