My GOD so many rocks on the way.

Space Boat v1 had 4 guns, and died immediately.

Space Boat v2 had 10 guns, and manged to barely get there by manually pausing thrust several times, then getting smashed in orbit by Fulgora's drifting medium asteroids because it ran out of ammo.

Space Boat v3 has 28 guns protected by walls and a stockpile of ammo. It can get there and back again. Time will tell if it has production capabilities to survive parking in Fulgora orbit.

I was the opposite! Eager to check the new content, and confident I could make fixes using the remote driving feature.

But it's fun in a new way; I'm the type of RPG player that finishes the game with all expensive potions still untouched in the inventory, everything meticulously minmaxed. I realized it makes me a very nervous player that doesn't like risks, so this time I went with a role-playing approach, and it really pays off! When I'm not playing, I'm thinking of my poor engineer stranded on an alien planet, and how I'm going to bring him home again, possibly to a ravaged base...
