Starsector 0.97a is out! (02/02/24); New blog post: Simulator Enhancements (03/13/24)
constantly stop and burn, stop and burn
The game was completed 8 years ago and we get a free expansion every year.
Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.
I hate it.Nebulas/storm clouds are not shown on the big map so you cannot plan your route since you cannot zoom out far enough, and a route that looks like it takes you around may trap you in the middle of a giant sea of hyperspace storms.
You can also use the storms to travel much faster. It's only (relatively) safe if your ships have solar shielding, though.
Yep, they do! E-burn is probably the best way to ride the storms consistently, you basically don't get blown off course so you can easily stack up the speed. And it makes going through a wall a cinch, too.
they attract weaker strikes.
I cant be blamed for what I said 5 minutes ago. I was a different person back then
