Re: New stellar manipulation component idea

If you want to start a combat, launch a fighter. I assume you mean for the planets to fight it out with just weapon platforms?

Re: New stellar manipulation component idea

Moving a small planet into a sun would not destroy a system, only the planet. Allowing ships to move planets/stars (or planets to move w/a facility) would be hard to figure into the current system...

Re: possible bug: refitting multiple ships in multiplayer

Tomgs point is right on the mark. I cringe whenever I but a minerial mining facility on a lower (less than 100% planet) but have had to do it in some games just to avoid running out of materials.

Re: Small ships and mines

Smaller ships also have the advantage of being built quicker. I often build smaller ships for specialized functions in a fleet. Examples include: PD ship, minesweeper, shipcapture w/repair bay.
