I don't know if they fixed it but you can't build anything too large before the game crawls to a stop as it'll eat up all the RAM.

I saw the Venator and it was pretty good. No good Imperial Star Destroyer from what I've seen, though.

Top marks go to the (very miniature) Space Marine Strike Cruiser, though. The attention to detail in it is staggering. Silly YouTuber called it a battleship... if someone actually built a scale 40k battleship, I'd start wondering about mental health.

Challenge mode: scale Death Star
I saw someone actually want to build a death star in SE.

They were quite disappointed when they found out that the map is only a 50km cube atm.

Managed to figure out to successfully hijack ships.

I managed to take a military escort and brought it to my base without triggering any of the booby traps. But the second attempt though wasn't nearly as good. :)

There's the huge yellow mining freighter I keep encountering but I can't hijack it because I can't find the cockpit. So I'd just raid it and leave.

if it's the big mining hauler then the cockpit is behind the spotlight, it's offset to the right like a YT-1300.

if it's the medium sized one then there's a door right on the back, the ships flight profile is vertical with the big black pads being the front.
If a black-hawk flies over a light show and is not harmed, does that make it immune to lasers?

Thanks. Don't care for the medium sized one. It handles like a brick in molasses.
