Does this matter to composition or loadout of ships after you have 0 d-mods or should I just put points in Fleet Size/Officers?

I did read http://fractalsoftworks.com/2018/02/12/blueprints-doctrine-and-production/#more-3897.

IIRC at 100% there's a fairly low chance of a ship getting a single d-mod, so a bit over 100% has some limited value. Anything above say 120% would, again iirc, not help anything.

[Martell]

Thank you very much. Having a blast with 0.9.

[Martell]

Oh, and just so I don't clutter the forum, going to stick my feedback for this version here.

- Tooltip during Trade/Production should show how many weapons/ships you already own. I can now make HILs. Do I have any in Colony A? Colony B? On fleet? It's already partly implemented in the Refit screen, would be a great convenience to have it elsewhere.

- Having to toggle back to Fleet screen everytime I change something in the Refit screen to see how the stats have changed gets tiresome. Perhaps a tooltip on the ship pictures to the left?

- Comm Relays feel like they're vital, so much so that systems without enough stable spots feels useless as colonies. Perhaps alternatives? Alpha Cores in certain ground based structures?

Quick note: there's a tooltip with ship stats on the ordnance points bar.

[Martell]

Perfect. But perhaps slightly obscure.

Note that you can dial down your faction doctrine for "fleet quality" once you get to over 100% ship quality. I think each fleet doctrine point - of the seven you are allocated for that section - is worth 12.5% if put toward fleet quality, so in essence a Pristine Nanoforge is worth four points!

This does cause an issue if you have multiple colonies, though, since the ones without a nanoforge will start putting out poorer quality ships as a result of that change.

I'm pretty sure the nanoforge/orbital works are actually a global benefit - as long as a single colony has you are good to go. Perhaps all the ships are being produced there and just shipped to other colonies.

^^^^ yes about 99% that is correct above.  I have two colones, one with heavy industries and a pristine nanoforge, the other colony with neither.  The other colony does show the nanoforge bonus in the quality breakdown though for the fleet.  I recall that as I remember seeing it and thinking that was great to see.

Best to grab 2 pristine nanoforges for redundancy as luddite terrorists is proficient enough to sabotage orbital docks and bye-bye ships quality unless you got a second industry center.

Oh yes, my thinking exactly.  Just need to find the next ideal place to colonize that has less than 175% hazard.  Currently, I am focused on exploring and search for the next great location to colonize.  I only have corrupted nanoforge as spare, though.

[megalon]

A 2nd pristine nanoforge would be nice!  Haven't come across any 2nd nanoforge yet but definitely hope I come across one.

In that case the then -- having 1 colony with pristine nf and one with a corrupted one -- are the bonuses cumulative for fleet strength or is it instead just the top modifier for nanoforges that used across all your fleets,   i.e if you had say, 5 colonies, 4 using a corrupted and one using a pristine, it would apply just the pristine quality bonus across all 5 colonies ?

[Goumindong]

You only get the top ones value. The second pristine nanoforge is a backup and also increases total speciality production capacity

[Shad]

Late game you have corrupted nanoforges you don't want: I wish they could be handed similar to AI cores for massive rewards + other goodies (for example no expeditions from the faction, or a rare prisitne capital ship).

[Vind]

Ability to assemble one pristine nanoforge from 5+ corrupted ones would be great. Found 8 corrupted ones and only one pristine from AI mining station. These remnants can repair good stuff in their systems.
