  1. I was wondering if anyone had ever suggested giving the players the option of activating or de-activating seprom use . So much is wasted on NPC's . Would be nice to be able to save it for use in PVP battles . Another option would be to increase skylab output . Current levels do not allow for constant play while maintaining laser upgrade.

    I got lasers upgraded by seprom permanently :) Now its sbout 2 740 000 rounds. And it significantly lowered during Halloween TOT (from about 3,8M). Other time it keeps rising. Two advices for you:

    1) Dont be so game addicted - dont play it all your freetime. And send skylab, of course. You will see, that skylab output isnt so small.
    2) Upgrade smaller sums of ore. When u go PvE, put some promerium to lasers. Whe you go hunt, replace it with seprom.

    This idea would make game much easier - no.

    Not sure about activating/deactivating seprom in lasers.

    But skylab seprom production needs to be increased. Funny how the devs spend countless time on bringing new stuff into the game to attract players while they don't care about the existing problems.

    It has been suggested so many times. The current seprom production is way too low for an active player and the storage limit is another mess.
     
  4. Oh yeah - there is a quest mission to use another rock to lasers :eek: other than seprom :rolleyes: yeah right, I am keeping the sep till I run out. So far hasn't happened.
     
  5. TY all for your replies. Maybe if enough players agree then some enhancements may take place.
    I play as often as I can because there are goals I am trying to achieve. However I do have another acct. that I alternate between in order to allow the others sep.. to come up. I will consider your suggestion on putting prom.. instead and when I can afford damage boosters then maybe it won't be such an issue .
    I hope for more feedback but ok to close at DO discretion TY

    .Wagon.: I thing, that "small" skylab output of seprom has its purpose. I understand, its a problem for players, that play a lot. But it should be so - it should be problem, that players should solve - in my previous post - advice 2). If the skylab output is increased significally (to appease your needs), we could dismiss whole skylab and say: "everyone has seprom in lasers, shd and rockets (and promerium in engines) all the time".

    OP: Maybe, I wouldnt mind the option to switch off the seprom use at this condition: when your seprom is swiched off, you are ore-less, i.e. you cant put for example promerium on, and switch between seprom and promerium use. It would be switching between current ore and nothing.
     
  7. Your point in regards to increasing production is well taken and activation /deactivation would be either on or off (no switching )
    However after some thought I was entertaining the idea of some sort of storage device to which you could send Seprom to and stockpile it for future transfers to ship . The device could be made upgradable for diff. lvls of capacity. Transfer times would remain the same from skylab to device and from device to ship . The advantage of this would be to be able to have it on stand by with out using it or risking its loss by holding it in cargo. More opinions are welcome and follow up ideas .

    AH HA I just had a eureka moment . An even simpler idea would be to make the Skylab storage capacity for seprom unlimited . This would negate the need for any new devices and still incorporate the same transfer time to ship. And you could let it accumulate there until needed.

    I like your idea with infinite Skylab capacity. But I am araid, that will never happen - it would lower the player needs to sit around the game day after day, thus developers will not like that.
     
  9. There actually was similar idea ("Tick box" idea), with this you could swap between promerium and seprom, without need to throw away what you have installed. But sadly i can't find it anymore.

    Lol... I could burn away that amount in 10-15 days, eaven if i keep sending seprom from skylab, since skylab cant keep up. It will be drained out in no time.
    At Halloween event i almost used up all the promerium too, since skylab can't keep up!
    And no. I am not game addicted, but when i feel like playing, seproms will be gone almost instantly.


    So +1 from me. Something should be done!

    What to say to this? Some have usual life goals - as find a wife/husband, build a house, plant a tree, make a familly, live a life. Some have one life goal instead - an mmo game :)
     
  11. After you blow up an NPC you can collect the cargo and the Lab CPU 3 chip will update your lasers accordingly. This way you can save up on seprom until you go crazy again.

    Yeah, I wish you could do this.
     
  13. Just to clarify , this is NOT my life goal . I do however enjoy the game and play often to achieve game goals like skill tree advancement , gate building/ completing and acquisition of drone deigns and LF-4's. If you're going to play this game then it would be nicer to be a winning player than a losing one. Don't need a wife , I like my studio apt. just fine, there are plenty of trees where I live and I sure as hell don't want to start a family at my age.
     
  14. Introduce Sep in Uber/Boss NPC's cargo boxes :) Boom! job done, next problem.:D
