    The game is amazing, the developer is genuine, devoted, honest, hard working, a true gamer, he was uploading daily updates
    The price of the game is stupid low, it should be a crime, community translated into many languages, the plan is to keep adding stuff to the game.
    And if you want to do something kind... buy the game, most of the money will go to the treatments and surgeries of his very young daughter, Nadia (if i am not mistaken) who was born with a 1: millions cranial dysplasia, the temple bone keeps growing into her ear !!!
    The developer Mariuz stayed motivated because the game was literally a matter of life or death, of his daughter.

      Developer also kept a demo available (for next-fest etc) that was just the full game because he saw the sales/daily players stats weren't affected by it so no reason to put work into drm or limited content demos when the community was so trustworthy. There are too many other great reasons to list here, but easy choice to support. The dev is definitely a real one!

    Along with 'Mech Engineer' this is one of those dense, fringe games that are hideously underappreciated yet thoroughly compelling to those of us who like this kind of thing. Delta V is another fine example of why I love the indie game scene right now. It is where all the fun stuff occurs, imo.

      I think this is a lot more accessable than that mech game lol. This simulates a lot of systems and the UI (while flying) is verbose which might seem daunting. But in the end, its just fly around with a generous autopilot pointing at things and clicking pew pew. I'm one of those heavy sim fans and for me this game could use more depth to it's systems (and it could use more systems in general). All of this to say: this game is not THAT complicated and is easily recommendable to most people.

    13:28 - Delta v is how much you can change your velocity, in any direction.
    The more mass in your ship, the harder you have to push to move it, so you need to use more fuel get up to the same speed. No need for 'hard core' physics. (Is that physics where you do two integrals at the same time? Whoo!)
    21:10 - I'm going to guess that is the gain on your scanner. Think of it like this: you walk in to a room that is pitch black and you have a flashlight that will only quickly send out a brief burst of light, like a photo flash. How strong should the flash be? You can dial it up to be super strong so you can see really far, but it will overpower your eyes and you'll lose out on nearby detail. You might be able to see the opposite wall, but you might not see the lego brick you're about to step on. You could dial it way down to be a very mild flash so you can see close stuff very well, but your range will be limited. So, do you want your scanners to detect stuff very far away badly or very close stuff well?
    Being able to send strong signals and tell weaker signals apart at the same time (which your strong signals are once they bounce off of stuff and get back to you) is called "dynamic range". The bigger the range you need to cover between strong and weak the more expensive the scanner gets - very, very, very quickly.

    20:52 The pop up tool tips are actually already in game. The description of the microseismic scanner focus is right there at the top of the screen in your video, just below the word Tuning.
    It says: "Adjust the focus area of your cargo bay's built-in microseismic mineral scanner".
    As you move the slider, if you look at your cargo bay, you will see how instead of the whole thing being green at a universal distribution, instead that distribution shifts towards the front or back of the cargo bay.
    Basically it shifts the area where you want the level of detail to be at in your cargo bay.
    I've never shifted it around myself, but I wouldn't be surprised if it enabled an onboard geologist to make a better estimate of the value of your cargo if all of your cargo happened to be in the area you were focusing on.
    All other tool tips appear in the same location. I believe. It's been about half a year since I've played.

    I haven't played with this one in a long while. But my impression of the dev is very good. Very often the dev messaged me when I would post in the forum and would work out any issues I had almost immediately. I know I probably got lucky, but I got the impression the dev really cares about the game and was really trying to fix bugs as soon as they showed up. I guess I fall into that 'dad' class of gamers who love to fiddle with the little things and then sit mining ice for hours on end. I enjoyed this thing from back in early alpha, I need to pick it up again soon now that it's got a lot more polish.

    I've been playing this for a few weeks, and I am stunned at how good Delta V is. There is no "right" way to mine, and just watching this video I could tell that Splat has chosen different priorities from me, and the craft reflects those changes. Seeing there being no MSU on an EAgle just seems weird to me! Also surprised that there is an excavator instead of a grinder like mine has. Also just using tug drones instead of full on haul drones. This is a hard game to get into, but once you do, you there is so much to fiddle with.

    Pirate hunting can be very lucrative if you have an Arm on your ship, as once you disable the pirate you can grab their entire ship and bring it back, collecting both a bounty reward and getting to keep the ship itself to either sell for more money or keep as a new tool for yourself. And some of the better pirates can have some real good ships. Though, I admit that after a while I once stopped ever seeing pirates in one of my old playthroughs, so I wonder if I actually just wiped them all out after some point.

    Microseismic scanner focus is whether the cargo bay UI is more accurate near the top or the bottom of the bay. It's a bias value. If you click on any of the options, the description is at the very top above the simulation, but it's not a mouseover like one would usually expect.

    I love this game so much, can't recommend it enough. 5 bucks and I've played it probably 100+ hours. I'm still finding variants of ships from time to time that I didn't know existed. If you played Hardspace: Shipbreaker, or did core mining in Elite, or like mining/hauling gameplay, definitely give this game a look. Once you hit the point where you can easily fly manually with just the torch and no autopilot assist, the game really starts to open up. That's the point where you can start making more income per trip, and making the trips faster. Then the game opens up again once you start buying new (or gently used... or nearly destroyed) ships and fixing them up and kitting them out.
    One major thing I recommend that will greatly improve your experience is to disable the smart camera. Splat has it ON in this video (it's on by default) and it causes the camera to move around a lot as you move the mouse around, or it zooms in when you open your cargo bay, etc. It's very jarring and makes precise movement and getting your bearings very difficult. If you turn it off, you can manually control the camera's zooming and panning, and it's SO much easier to fly manually this way and drift-scoop instead of relying on the autopilot to do it (which burns TONS of fuel).

    That UI is hot. I know, it's just another retro-remake green phosphor take, but the OMS screen with the brightness tied to power, would be exactly what they would do back in those days. All they had was bold, underline, and blinking. They could set the brightness per line, but that was pretty advanced UI for back when all they had was green or amber. Obviously different OS had different capabilities, but the green phosphor is typically the IBM compatible era of OSs.

    It is literally your capacity for change in velocity. The way microgravity physics works is fuel isn't really counted in time or distance, rather speed. This is because the fundamental concept of thrust is applying pressure in a direction over a period of time. This speed tied to a direction is a vector known as _velocity._ Say you accelerate from 0 to 20m/s, by definition, you have used 20m/s of delta V. Given this is space, you can effectively say you will continue going 20 m/s infinitely until something tries to stop you, such as air resistance, or a large rock. If in this same hypothetical, you accelerated backwards from 20m/s in one direction, to 10m/s in the exact opposite direction, you would use 30m/s of delta V: 20 to cancel out your existing momentum, and 10 more to accelerate in the opposite direction.
    What Spalt is trying to say, is that as your ship gets heavier, you require more fuel and more engine thrust time to achieve the same velocity. Meaning as your ship gets heavier, the same amount of fuel accounts for less delta V, and your ship feels more sluggish. While at one weight, a specific portion of your fuel tank will account for 20m/s of delta V, doubling the weight of the object in question will reduce that same portion of fuel to 10m/s delta V in effectiveness. At the same time, it also doubles the amount of time it would take to get to 20m/s.
    At least, that's what I remember of my high-school physics textbook, and playing KSP when I was 15.

    That cargo hold make impression that the stuff inside is floating free and crashing from wall to wall. That would cause huge damage if the game would believe to Newton.

    Astrogating isn't too bad if you turn down the velocity (slider above the "plot a course" button). I usually set it to 30m/s but you can go lower. Then you use manual thrust to dodge around any rocks. It takes some getting used to but it's fine.

    Gonna be that 'guy' and i'm sure theres many others, but it'd probably be better to explain delta V as 'how much total momentum, measured in acceleration, can you affect before you're out of it- it being reaction mass/fuel/propellant' Low Delta V means you overall, cannot affect your acceleration significantly. I am most definitely not the type of person who actually has a deep grasp in all of this stuff, but broadly translated to how this game works is if your delta V is a thousand, that means you have a thousand meters (or whatever distance/speed denominator it uses) of fuel before you're out~ Keep in mind you'll rarely go above 100 'speed', and only if you're vastly experienced, and you don't lose speed either in space unless you collide with something, so a thousand delta V is actually still a decent amount of capability to manipulate your momentum with. (although you probably don't have enough propellant to make it home in a decent timeframe.)

    I just loved to take the big yellowbellied constructor ship out, take asteroids in the hold and spin the ship to break the roids straight in the hold.
    Then let the refiner handle ore and refuel the ship on the fly.
    Lazy yes, efficient no, fun 100%

    i would love to be able to fly out with a small nimble ship to feed ore to my large cargo ship.

    Make a guide on how to use the large ships :P
    With the non-drone short version of the craft you are piloting I have slapped the best laser on it and an extra microwave emitter to stun the ships, as well as the manipulator. Blows up and KLNTR/small ships within seconds, somehow.
    After that I was ready for a new challenge and thus brought an Obonto OCP-209 and... instant regret. I have no idea how to tame that absolutely gargantuan beast.
    Had to sell and rebuy something like my old ship and rebuild it.
