tkdguy Posted May 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 I can see some of these robots being used in off-world colonization, like building habitats on Mars or exploring the ocean beneath Europa's surface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

borbetomagnus Posted September 9, 2020 Report Share Posted September 9, 2020 @tkdguy I enjoy all the links and videos in this thread. My gaming group is starting a space opera campaign and these are informative. tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkdguy Posted September 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2020 Pretty cool, but it has some glaring omissions, like Babylon 5 and Deep Space 9. Granted, they're space stations rather than starships, but a few stations are included in this video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgehobbit Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 On 11/15/2020 at 5:23 AM, tkdguy said: This video is interesting in that it is almost completely wrong. If you're trying to match a vector to an enemy ship, you will rarely, if ever, be burning directly at him as your target will be moving many thousands of meters per second and you'll have to calculate where your enemy will be when you finish burning, and that assumes that you don't finish your burn long before you get into weapon range (that is, the range you can reasonably hit something). Once you've matched vectors, turning to orient your weapons will be trivial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinecone Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 Not really a link, but I want to tell you'all about this. I was over on Steam, purchasing xmass gifts and I saw a Universe builder game. It is still in Beta, but it is Made for "all in" sci fi crafting. tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
