Last time we built a Death Star using the new weapons in Warfare 2, this time we build STARKILLER BASE. With nearly 400 Railguns, anything in it's path is immediately deleted. In this video I test my ultimate weapon vs ships, asteroids, planets and even the Death Star itself!
Is there anything else you'd like to see, let me know with a comment!

Space Engineers is a voxel-based sandbox game set in space and on planets, developed and published by Czech independent developer Keen Software House. In 2013, the initial developmental release of the game joined the Steam early access program. During the following years of active development, Space Engineers sold over one million units. In total as of 2019 the game has sold over 3.5 million copies In May 2015, for approximately a year and a half, the game's source code was officially available and maintained by KSH to assist the modding community. On December 15, 2016, the game entered Beta and was later officially released on February 28, 2019.
The game is a sandbox game about engineering, construction, exploration and survival in space and on planets. Players build space ships, space stations, planetary outposts of various sizes and uses, pilot ships and travel through space to explore planets and gather resources to survive.

[@NoSubsWithContent]

@@jacthing1 if it's rail guns yea it'll probably squeeze the planet so tight it breaks the crust around it on both sides as magma fills the area but if it's a lazer like it's imagined to be then the recoil would be miniscule

[@wycre-official]

you can use supergridding to put large railguns on small grids, the railguns will look like large ones, but only take as much space as a small one. So you can put them much closer together

[@Zer0sLegion]

Yeah, I been made aware.

[@CainSeldon]

Maybe make it so they all fire with a slight delay from one another, effectively making a pulse beam. that might make it more destructive actually

[@asdasdasdasd8970]

I love the momentary pause and bright flash right before the target evaporates. Like being struck with Balefire

[@yesseru]

Fun fact, the starkiller is actually just the terreformed Ilum. Ilum is a very "holy" planet for the jedi, since it has so many kyber crystals. Guess what a giant starkilling planet laser gun needs? That's right! A shitload of kyber crystals.

[@Raptorrex65]

No it's not, star killer was a planet in the unknown region not ilum, ilum is still around but it was badly strip mind under imperial rule.

[@yesseru]

@@Raptorrex65 Ilum is that strip mine.

[@leton7565]

It is Ilum. In Jedi: Fallen Order after you've done the story campaign and return to Ilum, you can see how it's being turned to a planet killer.

There is a far stronger weapon still: the Celestial Array of the Necrons in Warhammers 40k is capable of causing any star to go super nova anywhere in the milkyway galaxy at any time by simply touching the star with your finger in its real time high definition holographic map.

I wonder what you could do with supergridding it. like not even starkiller platform size, but the same amount or more railguns in a small space. Just absolutely remove a ship.

[@Zer0sLegion]

I've seen people use supergriding but I'm not too familiar of how it works myself, I think it's time for some research 🧐

[@Ctaehko]

@@Zer0sLegion there isnt much on youtube about it because not many people understand what it is. This is how to do it though. You save any kind of large grid block as a blueprint, just one though. Then you open the blueprint file by renaming it to .zip and extracting it with any kind of software you'd like, WinRaR worked for me. Rename the file you got to .xml, then open the .xml in any kind of xml editor, i used notepad++ for this. Find where it says something about grid size : "Large". Change that to grid size : "small" Then, save the file, rename it to (blueprint name).sbc Then get ingame, copy the blueprint to clipboard and you have your very own large grid block that you can paste on small grid ships, which you can use to paste veery high density railguns onto a rotor. Hope that helps

You sir, are insane. A prefect fit (and a welcome addition) to the SE community! Is your explosive railgun mod on the workshop? You know.. for strictly scientific purposes!

[@Zer0sLegion]

Not yet, i'm trying to find the right balance between lag and explosive damage

[@Haladmer]

@@Zer0sLegion You're likely to not find a good balance honestly. Lag is just too system specific to really tune for it (beyond not insta-crashing SE lol), and no matter how you tune it, folks will just scale the number of cannons up/down to achieve the destruction they want. Honestly, my suggestion is to find a level destruction per cannon you want it to have, and go from there. If you're trying to limit weapon spam killing the sim-speed, what you might want to do instead, is to use the block type limit settings in the block definition files.

[@Comicsluvr]

One of the KZbin streamers determined that railguns penetrate voxels but then strike the INSIDE on their way OUT. In case that helps answer your questions. Cool video in any case.

[@_Kitetsu]

This video reminds me of the old "How Not To be Seen" by Monty way back in the day.. How you kept running to a next clip, "And this is is the hole, and this is his pirate base, and this is..." Good Stuff sir! And now for something completely different.

[@exilestudios9546]

ok so that reddit pixel count estimation is scary accurate as the exact size of starkiller base is 660 kilometers

[@Zer0sLegion]

I didn't think it had a canon size, if i'd know that, it would have saved me a lot of time lol.

[@exilestudios9546]

@@Zer0sLegion well starkiller base is actually the former jedi world known as illum which has an exact size

[@gozzilla177]

In my testing of the rail guns a single one can puncture something like 23 blocks and still damage a hydrogen tank, or 4 layers of heavy armor. Most ships are not layered in 4 heavy full blocks to protect them cuz it would be to heavy to move lol so it's just a matter of knowing where to fire to do incredible damage, and the small ones can be used with a script on some rotors to function as literal turrets as well altough I couldn't find a design proper enough to really protect them mainly from other rail guns, let alone other types of fire they are so bulky.

This is so much better than the Death Star. Honestly, if you kept shooting on that planet, you eventually would be able to go through it and technically collapse its atmosphere, so Starkiller Base turned out to be a much more lore-accurate weapon.

I'm a game developer and I'm making a game that will have a lot of the mechanics that space engineers have. To reduce lag you can start with already large ships and build onto them. My game will also include a planetary laser so yes someone could make a death Star but I will not add a death Star to my game or Star wars stuff. I will just add everything so someone else can build it so I don't get sued. It wasn't me Star wars. I didn't build the death Star it was this guy. Lol. So there will be a death star in my game I can almost guarantee. Well at least all of the parts will be laying around.
