Starminer Weekly Screenshots #4
So you're back for more, Commanders?
The universe of Starminer is vast, and we’re giving you a quick look at the challenges ahead. This week, it’s all about navigating space and managing your fleet. From dodging asteroids with pinpoint precision to handling resources on the fly, every decision counts. Strap in with us and get ready to face the unknown—your adventure through the stars is about to begin, and it's going to be one wild ride!
Space Navigation: Command and Conquer ????
We've gone into a lot about building your ships, but navigating through space is just as important as anything else. With retrothrusters firing to adjust speed and direction, you're constantly making small, calculated maneuvers to avoid asteroids and other obstacles. The beauty of Newtonian physics means that momentum is key—every movement has a consequence. Whether you're speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction, the ship reacts with precision, and one wrong move could send you spiraling. As you can see, the thrusters are working overtime to keep things steady while maintaining a clear path.
But what's that in the background? It looks like another ship making its way through the same chaotic asteroid field.
Alright, we can't help but mention how beautiful this ship here is. This station featu]res a central core with multiple interconnected modules that handle everything from mining to resource processing. The sections attached to actuator nodes are equipped with rotating solar panels, while the more compact structures house vital equipment, including a nuclear power source for maximum efficiency. Don’t forget to take a close look at the ships lingering in the background—seems like there’s more than just this one on the job! That's right - you can also command your very own fleet.
And last but not definitely not least, here's a close look at our Commander ship in full operation, managing essential resources like energy, metal, and storage for its upcoming missions. With a power output of +440 MW, the ship’s systems are running at full capacity to keep everything in check. Alongside it, a fleet of nearby ships plays a critical role in ensuring the mission's success. Each vessel contributes its own specialized equipment, from retrothrusters to mining tools, forming a well-oiled machine that tackles the challenges of space exploration head-on. Your constant interaction between your ships, stations, and surroundings is a just another dynamic aspect of managing resources.
