Starsector 0.97a is out! (02/02/24); New blog post: Simulator Enhancements (03/13/24)
why would it have a boost at all??? its maneuvering jets. not thrust booster, its supposed to make you turn faster. not go faster.
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.
Manuevering jets is not a weak system. I can kill tempests with my falcon. Though granted the falcon is pretty fast.
I think the problem is compounded by the fact that most* of the mid-lines were already a little underpowered to start with.(*excluding the Conquest)

I always thought that most of the midline ships were awesome. The only ones that I think are a little underpowered are the Eagle and the Falcon (which I think all they could use is either a speed buff or a survivability buff) and the Brawler (again, more SPEED).
Brawler....Sunder.Vigilance....None can stand up to their low-tech, or high-tech comparables.
...Eagle....
