Sower v1.1.0

Free Starter Ship T1 Generators T1 Thrusters ISAN

The Sower is a starter ship designed to only require safe zone ore to build. It is quite fast and cheap, and with 36 crates, it makes a decent ship to use to help with the grind towards a more advanced ship.

Usage

Flying the Ship

Pilot Console

Interface Function
ForwardThrust Current forward thrust, maximum of 10,000 units
Cruise Activates cruise control, forward thrust will not reset to zero unless turned down.
Aim Reduces the response time of key presses for pitch and yaw.
Turtle Activates turtle mode which sets forward thrust to a maximum limit of TurtleRate of full thrust.
Sloth Activates the low sensitvity mode of pitch and yaw by limiting thrust. Use the Sensitivity switch to set the maximum thrust rate of sloth mode.
Transponder Toggle & Ping Transponder controls, Toggle turns on and off ship transponder while Ping will activate transponder for three seconds
ISAN2 ISAN Mono system. No speed reading as that requires advanced chip which requires non safe zone ore

See Flight Systems on how to fly the ship and use its flight systems.

Managing Power and Fuel

Pilot Right Console

Interface Function
Battery Shows current battery charge of the batteries, maximum of 10,000 units.
Generator Current generator rate, maximum of 100%.
HeatTransferRate Current heat transfer rate of the heat sinks, maximum of 100%.
MinEPS & Min_Gen Toggle and sets minimum generator rate. See Managing Power and Fuel.
Fuel1 & Fuel2 Fuel remaining on fuel rods in individual fuel chambers, maximum of 300,000 units for each.
Shutdown Turns off fuel chambers.
Propellant Total propellant remaining in propellant tanks, maximum of 12,000,000 units.

By default the generator will only run and ramp up when the batteries need charging so there is minimum management needed. But you can set a minimum generate rate by setting the MinEPS value using the switch for the minimum rate and turning on Min_Gen.

Shutdown will turn off the fuel chambers.

Refilling Propellant

See Propellant Systems on how to refill propellant.

v1.0.1 20221019154127_1.jpg Material Crates 36 Mining Lasers 0

The Fledger is a starter ship that is targeted towards aspiring mechanics that want to learn about how ships work. It starts with the basic machinery but has plenty of space for upgrades, allowing the ship to grow as the player progresses. With an exposed frame, upgrades and repairs should be easier than most ships.
