Based on this I absolutely trust this developer that they will eventually make the greatest game of all. If the launcher is broken, it means fixing it is not a priority because they're working on some secret groundbreaking technology that will soon make all launchers obsolete. They must be very close to finishing it, otherwise leaving their launcher broken would be embarrassing, but all troubles will be soon forgotten once they launch Advanced Automated Amusement Activator (AAAA!) and we will plug our craniums directly into The 'Verse, just like in Matrix.

something in the code of the game or installer was designed with a limit of that date, presumably thinking it was far away and by the time they got there it wouldn't be relevant for one reason or another. A similar bug happened with Fallout 76's nukes, though that was only a year after release

Speed Limit posted:Why do ships have a sublight speed limit? Such as the 600i can only go around 953ms but the Carrack can reach just under 1200ms. If you need to limit yourself you can always scroll down on your mouse. But in space why not just let it fly as fast as time will allow you? Be nice for targets that have no QT ability. quote:safe operating speed. IFCS does not allow you to accelerate further than you can safely travel without your ship flying apart and/or turning your self into goo. You can argue that should should be able to override IFCS and allow you to fly your ship apart and turn yourself into goo, then the answer is "because videogame" quote:

So I’m just a social science dummy. But doesn’t constant acceleration increase the mass of the spaceship, so you will need increasingly greater amounts of thrust to maintain the same rate of acceleration?

colonelwest posted:So I’m just a social science dummy. But doesn’t constant acceleration increase the mass of the spaceship, so you will need increasingly greater amounts of thrust to maintain the same rate of acceleration? Mass is constant, but the formula has an exponent on the velocity so as you get faster you need exponentially more energy to go faster. E=mV^2 Edit: in other words to move a mass of 1 a speed of 10 is 100 energies, the same mass at a speed of 100 is 10000 energies and a speed of 1000 is 1000000 energies. You start getting close to infinity faster than you think. Jonny Nox fucked around with this message at 07:11 on Jan 20, 2023 |

I’d have to defer to the people in this thread who have a programming/game development background. But my take is that it’s theoretically possible if they rewrote portions of their engine, but it’s far beyond the skill of anyone at CIG, and even if they had the talent their codebase is a mess from 11 years of multiple generations of devs hacking together whatever they can before leaving the company.

Ideal Rocket Equation posted:The forces on a rocket change dramatically during a typical flight. During powered flight the propellants of the propulsion system are constantly being exhausted from the nozzle. As a result, the weight and mass of the rocket is constantly changing. Because of the changing mass, we cannot use the standard form of Newton's second law of motion to determine the acceleration and velocity of the rocket. Rocket Propulsion posted:

Why wait for things to actually be ingame when you can totally gush over text from the monthly report and take it as something that's already done,amazing and better than other games? "NPC's are going to be escorting you reliably, without getting in your face all the time" "Star Citizen is perhaps the very first game ever to manage having followers get in and out of open air lifts,"

colonelwest posted:So I’m just a social science dummy. But doesn’t constant acceleration increase the mass of the spaceship, so you will need increasingly greater amounts of thrust to maintain the same rate of acceleration? This is true, and it's a consequence of special relativity. But the effect is absolutely miniscule until you're going a significant fraction of the speed of light. Think, like, millions of meters per second. Jonny Nox posted:Mass is constant, but the formula has an exponent on the velocity so as you get faster you need exponentially more energy to go faster. Eh, it's important to realize that when you accelerate in space you do so by changing your momentum, which corresponds linearly with velocity. In other words, if your spaceship takes 5 seconds to accelerate from a dead stop to 1,000 m/s, it will also take 5 seconds to accelerate from 20,000 m/s to 21,000 m/s (barring the negligible relativistic effect mentioned above, and assuming we're flying futuristic spaceships that don't care about Mirificus's rocket equation). Basically modern day rockets are governed by the rocket equation that says as you burn fuel your acceleration increases since you're no longer hauling all that fuel with you. Sci fi spaceships could theoretically be limited by relativity, that says as you approach the speed of light it takes more and more thrust to continue accelerating at the same rate. Only (bad) sci fi spaceships have a speed limit of like 1200 m/s or whatever the case is in SC.
