Default Re: RCEs & Non-Newtonian in a QNP Universe

Hmm. What about the self-destruct device component? How does that work? I never build ships with self-destructs, so I confess to complete ignorance of how they function. I know that it's an option that you can choose from the scrap/analyze/etc. window, but does it have any sort of "use" ability to it? If so, this hypothetical new component could simultaneously perform the "destroy planet" and "self-destruct" functions.

This is all kind of silly, of course, because a weapon like this would be fairly ridiculous. Being able to destroy a planet from halfway across the quadrant, or even from just a few systems away, is kind of ludicrous. It's fun speculation, though.
