@@LastMumzy I do the same thing. I find stuff I like and they end up in every build. Part of it is looks and part of it is they’re perfect for what I’m trying to accomplish.
The hardest thing ive found for c class builds is covering the top and bottom of the reactor, grav drive and fuel without sacrificing mass and top speed. Especially if youre looking for a build with no ladders, its kinda hard.
Greetings prolific Grand Master Ship Builder. I am very curious to know how your companions crew minimizing has worked out so far, as not to incur the shields fluctuating problem! Have you decided on your final crew complement yet for the maximum crew bonus skills efficiency?
It's determined by the engines. I know from experience that 3xDT230's has a max mass limit of 2817 (and still maintain 100 mobility). It's just trial and error. Generally I just add cargo till my mobility hits less than 100 then optimize from there.
You absolutely love those Nova breaking engines, not that that is a bad thing.
Yeah I need to try some new things 😞

They kinda remind me of the GOD (Global Orbital Defense) cannons mounted on the Warlock class destroyer from Babylon 5.@@mknewlan67

Yeah often I will sacrifice efficiency just to ensure the components are hidden from view.

Generally I either go it alone or just take big three with me...Sam, Sarah, and Barret. Haven't had any shields glitch out yet. Fingers crossed...
I guess no Omari or Erick Von Prince then?
or the lovable Vasco either?!! Lol
Nope.. just Sam, Sarah, and Barrett@@snakeater4969
How do you figure out what mass you need?
