Hey! I've been loving the mod, especially the Riptide. The good ol' suck n *** is a favorite of mine. When i used the Kingdom of Terra puny baby tractor beam drill ship, it just wasn't that satisfying. The riptide is that and more. I can't wait to use the multiplayer mod and have a friend ride a drillship into some poor stunlocked ship.
That being said, the riptide feels incredibly strong. (it could be that i used the Kingdom of Terra Integral density hullmod that increases mass by 65%)
But most of the time if i pull a ship in and release right before it gets pulled all the way in, the ship explodes almost immediately. I don't know if it's some interaction with the station armor segments, but if i slap a ship with those meaty paws it dies.
Is it just a stupid synergy or is it something with the game physics? It's much, much less common if i keep the tractor beam on the whole time till they melt.
Anyways, keep up the good work, really cool ships!
