It should be possible, but it has about 10km/s less deltav than the ex5, so you'd have to make the trip at maybe 15km/s cruising speed. It also has less heat tolerance so you'd have to be more careful with aerobraking. It should be possible to do in the freighter too, if you were willing to wait longer.

@@eikopoppy29 yeah def David need to create that warpdrive space station to which you dock and take control and go places at warp speeds.

Yeah I was talking to him about that about 6 months ago. Sounds like he knows how he's going to do interplanetary travel and sounded like it might already be mostly implemented but he doesn't want to release it until some other systems are done and there's a good reason to go to other planets. Right now they're pretty dead.

Yep! I wanted the whole thing recorded for reference. It's a 4-day trip. Half the distance to the sun but I had to go slower to save fuel for the landing.

If this was a video with a voiceover or editing, I could understand the criticism; but it's just a direct capture of the game audio/video with no cuts or other sources added. What you hear here is what the game produced. I'm not sure why you'd want the audio modified from that?

​@@eikopoppy29 Most people barely touch their volume button, and none equalized/normalized volume is the number one complain for amateur videos. I thought the sound had been muted or stripped the first time I listen to this video because it was so low, and had to turn my volume up all the way... meaning the next video I listen to was obnoxiously loud. Normally, I wouldn't have even tried to change my volume more then 5%, but I go out of my way to watch your vids, normally, after a few seconds of seemingly nothing, I would've clicked off. This is also not the volume produced by the game... your earphones/speakers are likely amplified, and your settings in OBS or whatever, has a pre-amp which could be turned down, resulting in very low audio. If you absolutely do not want to do any post processing, at the very lest, normalize your recording levels.

@@JoelleTheAbsurdist Well, I appreciate any/all constructive criticism but it's hard for me to fix something that I can't hear myself. This video sounds fine to me with the KZbin player's volume at 25%, OS volume at 100%, headphones at 50%. Meanwhile the OBS audio capture has desktop capture volume at 100%, mic. input 200% but mic input was disabled for this video.

Yep! I think they have been there for a long time, hidden waiting to be found. More info in the description of this video.

lol

It's technically possible to play with only a keyboard, or keyboard/mouse. However the game developer recommends using either a controller or HOTAS, and I agree it's best played with one. I don't have a HOTAS myself, I play with an Xbox elite 2 controller.

@@eikopoppy29 Thank you for t he quick answer! So you find, that Xbox elite 2 controller had enough axis and buttons to provide normal control for this game?

@@motorheadrocker6504 Yes, I'd recommend it as a good controller. The only issue is that you won't have an axis for yaw.* But I haven't found that to be a major problem. *I guess you could theoretically use the right stick, but I don't recommend that.

@@eikopoppy29 May i ask you some about this game? It looks very interesting for me. I try demo, and now i think about buying full version of this game. Is there any possibility to turn on light in the cockpit? Also, is there clickable cockpit in full version?

@@motorheadrocker6504 The lights are always on and there's only one display that you can interact with (the FMS, you can zoom in on it and use it to select missions and navigation). You can control some of the other MFDs with physical buttons, but not by clicking on them in-game. I don't know if more systems management or clickable cockpit buttons will be added or not. The next update looks like it will focus on improving the terrain generator and textures. (FWIW, I think the game is great and definitely worth the price for the full version, although it's a long way from finished).

Thank you :)

It's called "Large Billboard" you can buy it from the awesome shop.

I'm not the developer of the game and he probably won't see a random comment on a KZbin video about his game. (But I agree with you FoN would probably work well as a streamed game).

What do you mean?

No it's not. Are you mixing up the speed indicator for the vertical speed one?

The easy way to do it is, point directly towards "retrograde" (the blue circle with an X in it) and burn the engines until your speed slows down to 6 km/s. Then just point forward again and angle up 40 degrees. The re-entry will take care of itself from there, you just have to keep the nose pointing up about 40 degrees until you're down in the atmosphere.

combat would be so challenging, realistic and fun. I'd love to have that but we all know cig. And yes, not everyone can be a good combat pilot just as it should. Like in the real world, not everyone is a F1 racer, they trained to get that good but cig lowering the bar to make it a dps race is some serious bs.

It also requires the developer to implement it though. I don't know how hard it is to do that. Apparently there is a mod that enables VR support. I've seen people discuss it on the discord. From what I understand the main problem is that menus don't look right and you have to work around that somehow.

Good lines of sight on the target while keeping what little lift vector that brick has working.

The current game has no penalty for negative Gs, but for visibility/control reasons it's still useful.

:D

Agreed I haven't seen another game that does it as well. It really lets you feel like a space trucker. I don't know too much about the implementation details. I do know the graphics engine is Unity though. It's a solo developer who releases regular updates but otherwise doesn't interact that much -- but when he does it's usually on Discord. If you want to check it out there's a free demo on Steam store.steampowered.com/app/1069190/Flight_Of_Nova/

It's gameplay of the new update, just what it says in the title.

Oh yeah, 18G is nothing for this game. The EX5 can survive 60+ for a bit. Why your pilot can? Who knows. :) There's a kind of "starting to black out" effect so I assume eventually we'll have to worry about it. But for now you're basically a Kerbal.

;)

The short hops are usually the most fun! (Unless going to a station).

That dropped booster pod just sitting there, taunting you 😂

:D

Me too. It adds a lot to the feeling of being on a desert planet.
