Steve’s magic tonnage algorithm

[undercovergeek (OP)]

I’m using a couple of the experts AARs to scour good ship design and have come across Steve’s Havock class destroyers

I’ve pretty much duplicated his design but I’m coming in at 6600 tonnes and Steve’s is 1000 - does Steve have magic weight skills for testing or have I gone very wrong?

Are you using box launchers (15% of normal size) ?

Ah - no - I’ll rework them

Thanks

Are you using box launchers (15% of normal size) ?

Can box launchers use magazines to reload?

No. Planet with maintenance facilities or a hanger

No. Planet with maintenance facilities or a hanger

on that note i have built a magazine to your specifications and asked the destroyers to reload at Earth but they are only reloading the launchers - not the magazine - is there a different order to reload the entire ship?

Edit - scrap that - needed to increase the ordnance default in ship design!
