Global option for "Allow Boost" ?

Post by Duncaroos » Sat, 2. Jul 22, 19:48

Is there an option to change the default "allow boost" to be off? Using combat AI loves to kill their shields for maximum boost, followed by a nice quick death.

Just saying, having it as an option in the empire settings would be cool to have, if the devs think it useful!

For each ship class separate!

Boost for S and M - good combat maneuver, but deadly waste of shields for L/XL.

Sometimes. They don't seem aware of where boost will carry them, however. It can work in 1v1 or small combat scenarios because boost in any direction takes them away from the few enemies. In larger battles it often ends up still in danger but now with less protection.
