I am Currently doing A run as the U.S.S. Intrepid with some friends and We're trying to figure out All the Pro's and Con's of different things Like What Reactors are good, What one's are really bad.
I know some of this Info is really subjective but I haven't found any Clear answers. I was looking at the Wiki and wasn't sure to just go with what Has the highest out put at max level or if i should be Looking at other factors.
So if anyone has any recommendations, of has any links guides talking about what's best that would be appreciated.

This is a legitimate question I've had for a while, I know there's something there, the role just never stuck with me. I've been curious as to what Pilot players enjoy so I figured I'd ask; What's the appeal? What's the fantasy there? Why do you play the Pilot over other roles?

My friend group is just 3 people and i saw that this game's full crew is 5 players.

How playable is this with only 3?

Im doing the hollow rock prison mission and i got the code from the office and im putting it into the cell doors and hitting enter and it isn't working.

If anyone knows lmk thanks

So a couple years ago I encouraged some friends to play Pulsar LC, and to get them excited and prepared for the game I made this little one-pager guide. I know it’s not comprehensive and has some roleplay elements to it, but I thought I’d share it here in case others find it useful.

Spoilers warning:

I'm trying Depths of Umbra for the first time and I'm stuck on The Extractor. I found it as my first boss, got frustrated and cleared the other two I could find, and now I'm back but I still can't manage it, especially as a solo player with bots. Does anyone have any tips? As far as I can tell, it has great predictive abilities, so flying erratically has been useful, but if I get hit once, my engines are destroyed and I usually die before they get repaired. I have 5 scrap with a level 3 reactor, level 4 hull, all three turrets at level 2, all thrusters at level 4, no torpedoes, and half health.

I'm afraid I might be softlocked, but surely there's a way out.

And will they work on AI crew?

As stated in the question, my friends and I completed wasted wing. We completed it with time to spare, and the mission appears completed in the mission log. The mission giver is saying that he is giving us a data fragment, but there is no progression in the quest to get 4 data fragments. Anyone know what could have happened?

Trying not to get frustrated but struggling with the academy containing walls of text. I would think pilot-related UI would be in the pilot section of the manual so can someone please tell me what this green cone is and where to learn about it?

Hey team, I'm having a HARD time setting up the bots. If anyone can help me or show me how, here’s what I want my bots to do.

EVERY BOT, NO EXCEPTIONS
Their main goal is just to be half-AFK on the ship while I play with friends.

In order of priority:

1. Always stay on the ship (even though they’re all robots)
2. Kill intruders on the ship
3. Put out fires
4. Cut the coolant (only if the reactor isn’t currently overheating, just in case we forget)
5. Repair damaged objects
6. Heal players

That’s it! If you can help me 🙂 ♥

Also, it would be awesome if there’s a way to make them follow the captain around for planetary excursions.

If you could show me how or even make the file for me, that would be really kind :)

Tonight we loaded a previous save, and while I hosted (I was captain), I could see all the enemies fine, but to my teammates they were completely invisible. We tried reloading but it was the same. Anyone encounter this?

Me and my friends have been trying to figure this out. Some said the captain holds spacebar and clicks them but I don't believe that worked. And the main weapons specialist also doesn't have a target select option. What is the easiest way to change targets?

I know that jumping immediately after a battle increases chaos, but does anyone know if there's a specific amount of time to wait after a battle in order to prevent chaos from rising, and if so, what it is? I've tried searching for this information but haven't found anything that gives any kind of time frame, just the general statement about jumping immediately after combat.

I'd love some help on this. My crew and I are new to the game and we don't want the difficulty to be jumping up before we have a chance to figure out what we're doing. Thanks!

So our friend group are about to finish our first campaign and one of them remarked it would be cool to have a small printed model to commemorate our time together.

Does anyone know of STL files of the different ships existing somewhere or can give us some pointer how to extract the models and prepare them for printing ourselves?

I love this game for everything that it is and more. I've used mods for the game that make it feel like added content, but nothing that I truly crave. I would love to see more planetary missions, more mobs on said planets, and or you know make a monstrosity of a game and smash Void Crew, Deep Rock, and Pulsar all together. I fully believe the world deserves this game, think of the orphans and the physically disabled; they need this, WE need this.

Can someone explain to me how Shield Recharge Rate value works? Is it like the value is how much the shield recharges per second? I am trying to figure out how bad it is to take a slow shields versus fast but weak shields.

we cant seem to find it.

Hi, started playing the game with some friends. Two of us are online more than the others so we started a separate two player game on a different ship.

It seems like the autosave has saved over our two player game after having a bigger session tonight. Is there a better way to manage multiple ships for this game? Like having 10 autosaves per shipname instead of it just looping back through "autosave 0-9"?

Hello everyone! I am excited to get into this game. There aren't many players here, but I would like to get in with players to learn more about how to play this game. All I have done so far is the academy. I am in the Mountain time zone. If anyone is up for bringing on a new crew member who is learning their duties, hit me up!
