Some questons regarding the game mechanics
Posted: Mon Mar 23, 2015 1:22 am
Hello everyone,new forumer here nice to meet you all
I'd like to ask some questions regarding the mechanics of the game which I did not find answers in the wiki page or anywhere else.
First,I've noticed that multiple scrap recovery arms do stack,however this doesn't seem to be the case if you add a teleporter.When using the teleporter and successfully boarding a full hull ship,the income seems to get bonus from only 1 scrap recovery arm .It doesn't seems to get the extra amount of scrap from the other 2 scrap recovery arms.For instance I board a 7th sector ship and with teleporter + 3 scrap arms I'd expect a major income boost,more than 100 scraps.Instead I get around 80+ which is the same if I had 1 teleporter and 1 scrap recovery arm.What's going on in this case?
Secondly,I'd like to ask,are FTL augmentations even worth it?Basically all of FTL Augmentations..
Also,what does Reverse Ion Field do?Does it stop laser from dealing hull damage?Does it allow the ship to evade lasers 50% of the time?I really can't understand how it works.
Finally I'd like to ask,how do the automated reloaders work?Do they remove 10% of the total time each or do they just speed up the loading by 10%?Is the formula like this (1- 0.10*numOfReloaders) or like this? (1/(1+numOfReloaders*0.1)
Same question with shield recharge booster.
Thanks a lot for your time.
P.S. Did you know that revisiting stores restocks fuels,missiles and drones?Does it restock anything else?
