Max Possible Burn
« on: August 15, 2019, 08:58:08 AM »
What's the fastest you can possibly get your fleet to go? Currently I've got a cargo fleet with a normal base burn of 8. With skills, hull mods, and sustained burn, I've got it up to 20. By bouncing off storms, I'm able to hit about 30. Is it possible to go any faster?

To be specific, burn 20 is a hardcoded maximum (with 30 being possible via storms)... but, through tinkering with starsector-core/data/settings.json, you can re-define the global burn values (i.e., up to light-years per burn factor, if you really wanted to).
