I play super casually but I can't help wondering why the laser cutter isn't doing more damage. I've detonated fuel tanks by lasering *near* them in the past never mind directly hitting them
This was the best way when the quasars launched, and remains the best way now. Every other method (freezing the pipes with coolant, using upgraded demo charges to break some cut points) takes longer. I'm mostly focused on speed vs. Full salvage, so I do have a bias.
this game will be only worth buying if they get a good modding comunity for ships running properly, actualy idk why they did not build the whole game around that, it will add a good amount of variety and replayability to the game
Started playing yesterday and was curious about how master shipbreakers worked. Damn. I'm impressed. At this moment I can't even imagine going 1 quarter of your speed. I started salvaging one of those big boys with qasar thrusters and I'm halfway through with about 5 shifts in already. I have been trying to go for the 100% most of the time but apparently it's not worth it?
It *really* depends on the ship! I'd say to carry on doing what you're doing. I can only do this at this speed *because* I know how to take a ship apart fully and with taking my time.
I'm still very early on in the game so I recognize that my experience so far might not be applicable to some of the higher level ships but I found it easier to move deep into the ship as possible into an area you can cycle depressurize and where you can cut your way out and then pop lose a panel so it stays depressurized without any blowback then repeat chamber by chamber working backwards towards the airlock. It wouldn't work on broken cyclers but otherwise it seems safer than explosive decompression.
Larger holes being less violent is so counterintuitive and also just wrong. If we cut a tiny hole it should be much slower and more gentle. The entire pressure system in this game is so illogical, they just need to make it the same as the real world and it could actually be fun. Like we should be able to connect all pressurised rooms and then use a pressure regulator to slowly depressurise them all, it's exactly how it would work in the real world.
No, it makes sense. All the air is coming out anyway, if it's coming out of a smaller hole, it's going to go far faster, and by extension be far more forceful. This is a phenomenon used for rocket engines, it's called the Venturi effect. I kinda agree about the atmosphere regulators though, but that'd make the whole process kinda trivial.
Ну если цель потерять часть утиля то следуйте этому руководству. Потому что разгерметизация не проблема, а задача даже двери сдать в утиль и получить деньги и очки.
Could you make a video for making a ram like machine with a hitting feature like in medieval siege engines. I can't figure out how to make pistons or something hit fast with a lot of power.
This so helpful, i literally quit this game because of how tedious this process was and your tips are so useful especially the aluminium panel in the javelin
Thanks! I found this video because of the situation where there's two rooms with pressure regulators separated by a single door. These techniques were largely what I was doing already, but the tip about simply opening doors being least destructive was new information. I was always hesitant to do that because I liked to be farther away when initiating an explosive decompression. Might be helpful to know that you can use your hands to hold onto a surface to avoid getting blown around. I wonder if the game takes into account, for instance, depressurizing the largest space first?
im confused... you never really seemed to bother taking out any electronics other than the door panel but you still passed without wasting hardly anything
The aluminium isn't worth a great deal. So a lot of the time it's not worth salvaging it. When you've got a load of electronics in an aluminium box, put the box in the barge and you save time and earn money!
I just confused the Meckerel method... Went to the engine rool and cut it off while the engine room itself was still pressurized... Death by high speed impact.... Well, leassons learned... (next time gonna remember to depressurized the ship and engine room first 🤦♂)
You may want to make sure of two things before attempting that method. 1. Loose items are not in a place that they could potentially fly towards and kill you during depressurization. 2. Hold on tight (Z key near wall/object)
Thanks. This run is a bit scruffy, a later one that I didn't upload has me actually stripping the rear cabin rather than dunking it, and I would refill tethers right at the start because of a weird circumstance with the tethers and the game moving from Early Access to full release.
I found the using Demo charges on the keel on the front sections will let you split the outer hull like a clam shell and a few tethers can quickly get them sent into the processer. I think I usually melt the big Aluminium inner rings also to make it work. From the there sectioning the inner hull is easy
Well... yeah. Those side pieces sure are a pain, but there are definitely ways to mitigate against it happening. (Tethering from the rear end of the panel to the black and yellow hatched line at the Master Jack side of the processor should both swing the panel around, and cause it to go further before it hits the suction zone. There's a lip on the outside of it that gets caught on an invisible ledge on the processor, and that's what causes the issue. The thruster is heavy, so it needs *a lot* to move it once it's in the processor pull. And thanks for calling me a legend!
I still believe that at an actual human being would be able to squeeze through that small space to get behind the thruster and shut off the fuel before separating the thruster from the lines. I genuinely think it's possible and we just can't cuz game
The thing is, I don't. The splitsaw can only cut things within the two lines for its reticule (particularly, it will cut from edge to edge any surface that the lines bisect, even if those aren't fully within the reticule) I'm not doing anything to shut the beam off, switching tools doesn't stop the cutter cutting what it would, I just switch tools quickly. I am really confused as to what the question is here still.
Would it be viable to open up paths between pressurized areas (as possible based on whatever ship you're working on) before depressurizing, or does that cause the whole "regulator no longer works" issue?
@@mrmiffmiffyou kinda can but it's a little fiddly. You have to destroy the doors between every room/crawlspace (they're not worth much anyway) and then cut the ship open. This way the ship can't cut off the part of the ship the depressurization event came from. Sadly, though, _safe_ depressurization of the whole ship is not possible. This comes at a cost though, you run a greater risk of stuff flying all over the place and colliding with more delicate components.
I think my favorite depressurization was when I had a Javelin with a Reactor II where the reactor compartment was pressurized and had no atmo regulator, just one in the ECU room. So what I did was disconnected the thruster as needed for the reactor, then cut the cut points holding the thruster to the ship hull. Was very entertaining to watch the thruster shoot out of the back end like a torpedo.
