There's still a little thing called "weapons".
Quote:Also, if we do start getting damage from asteroids, at least let us blow them into little bitty pieces. Take the Liberty dreadnought, you got alot of guns facing forward, just blow up anything in your way, you take no damage and carve a dreadnought sized corridor for other ships to use...That sounds like fun actually.
That would be fun for the players, not so much for the server. The extra volume of data and calculations would be horrible, even if it was easily applicable (which it isn't).
