Animated pie chart took way longer than expected. ๐Ÿคฃ

At least it looks a lot less static now, lol. Clicking the icons simulates power drain when a module is active.

Do I really need those bars and pie charts in the UI?
Nope, not really โ€” but they sure look cool. ๐Ÿ˜

Weโ€™re diving into some of the more exotic tech today~ ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

Testing the new Magnetar-tipped MIRV missiles, which magnetize enemy ships so they attract projectiles โ€” and sometimes, other ships.

Watcha think? ๐Ÿ˜…

Any fellow A-10 Warthog fans out there?

I call this the "Brrrrrt Build" โ€” just slap a rotary barrel on your standard Sentinel autocannon and unleash a ridiculous amount of damage with a press. ๐Ÿคฃ

Perfect when you need extra oomph on the battlefield โ€” but brace for that recoil! โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฉ

๐Ÿ”ง Weapon Test Log #01: EMP Rounds
Swapped out standard warheads for EMP variants on the autocannons.

Might be a little OP...
Okay maybe a lot OP. ๐Ÿคฃ

There's something about a ship launching from a carrier that's really hype. ๐Ÿคฃ

Decided to change the lock on from circular to cone base and it seems to work a whole lot better. ๐Ÿฅณ

Putting corvette latches on standard frigates to turn them into pseudo-carriers.

Could I have just made the corvettes warp in with the frigates? Yeah, but it looks cooler this way. ๐Ÿคฃ

Mad respect to all the UX/UI designers out there โ€” this took way longer than expected (realities of wearing multiple hats), and it's still not done. ๐Ÿ˜…

After countless hours of being [REDACTED] in Starsector, I finally took inspiration of implementing a debris system for our PhaigeX spin-off game ๐Ÿ˜†

It's not too fancy, but it gets the job done.
Progress is progress, right? ๐Ÿ˜‚
