You linked your Twitch, and the last 30 or so VODs show up there in broadcast history.

This is p. funny.
But for maximum pedant points, I'd like to point out that it's only a 'Red October' if you hit yourself with a missile you fired.

The scene in question:


Herpderp words on the internet etc.

LOL! You are right of course! In fact, my chat pointed that out on my last Stream! Ah, the Hunt for Red October...I'll have to see if it is indeed possible to torpedo yourself...if anyone can do it, it's me :)

Ahh, of course. That explains it. Lol! I'm thinking of uploading them all to YouTube...I have been playing it for hours now. Seriously, this game is so good I don't know why it isn't well known.

Torpedo, teleport, boom?

Torpedoes get initial speed from ur ship? ...... if ur moving backwards does the torpedo move slower??

i think it's, to some degree, intentional. publicity (like streams, articles, recommendations to friends, etc) is appreciated, but Alex doesn't want to expose the game to the big steam audience until it's done, or close to it.

at least, that's how i understood it.

yeah, speed and direction of the firing ship's movement has a big effect on speed and direction of the torpedo's initial movement. firing a torpedo while moving towards the target at high speed (particularly with ship systems like BRDY's Burst Maneuvering Jets) can make it a lot more deadly, giving the enemy less time to dodge or destroy it.

It's funny you say this... I was just watching a top 10 space games video on youtube. They had the usual Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous... But there were at least 3-4 other ones that could be replaced by Starsector.
Of course, I'm pretty biased!

I know I've showed a few of my friends this game, and they were all impressed. They've all said they would keep an eye on its development. And who knows who they'll spread the word to. One person you show the game could turn into 20.
