What about standup bomb launchers? Or are the fighters too small to take significant damage from bombs?

I'm not sure if they can apply to fighters well or not.

Honestly, I'm not too worried about the details, as long as xttz is still active. Man is a savant with structure mechanics.

I guess CCP's idea of a good plex sale is 15% off.

Strongly considering riding that thin line between becoming a whale and buying just enough plex to set up a bunch of reaction duders and a vertically integrated T2 production line.

Normally, they can't apply short term meaningful damage, if you're paying attention they won't die- in a heavy TiDi server melting hellgrind though? Who knows, :ccp:.

Fighter spam on Citadels was causing ridiculous levels of server lag/TiDi on SiSi when we were testing stuff a few years ago, not sure if that's been improved or not, but we inadvertently killed the node with a ~120 carriers worth of fighters on a Fortizar a few years ago.

Are the Sisi servers as powerful as the production servers?

(Maybe yes, if they pack more systems per server?)

The main problem with null is all the buildings look the same. Like who cares about another fortizar, it looks identical to the thousands of others. Why does each empire not have their own? All the NPC stations are different. You can’t even put skins on them. Pretty stupid if you ask me

So citadels are bungalows?

If I had to guess, I'm going with 'probably not'.

Testing in question was 4+ years ago, so things may have changed between now and then. I'm just trying to imagine a grid with multiple manned citadels on a grid with a Keepstar all independently doing math to hit a larger than average amount of fighters. poo poo going awry is probably still very plausible.

Why? If your main goal is throwing your allies into a wood chipper to loot the field afterwards I can think of no course of action that'd be more advantageous.

@ccp so for the drone thing. I dont think you're doing enough. Rats should prioritize drones that are sitting still. You know for when they are done shooting their target THEY CAN GET ABSOLUTELY OBLITERATED while they sit there for five loving seconds while your lovely code responds to pressing f on the next target.
