#Rimworld save our ship 2 mod

How does boarding work? One or two times, I've blown an enemy ship to smithereens. Will I eventually end up being besieged by only mega-sized ships, or will it still generate an assortment of sizes? Don't really want to expand it to a capital ship size, since it wouldn't be able to easily land on new planets, then. In the same vein how does ship combat generate? I have a medium-sized ship that I intended to use as a sort of 'exploration vessel' (likely lots of wealth from planet hopping) with enough firepower to defend against other small / medium vessels. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if it's a bug. (Advance / Retreat didn't seem to do anything). I noticed that on a good number of occasions, I'd blow the enemy's engines - but would not be able to adjust my distance. Feels like FTL + Rimworld, a great combo!įew Q's though: In ship combat, I try to stay at long range.
