Much later, when all is said and done, I think a Tactical Battle mode where you can test out fleet compositions and builds against an enemy would be nice to have. I know that was a big request of SotS back in the day, and I expect it'd be appreciated here. Not something to worry about til after Early Access though.

Also, out of curiosity, is multiplayer a planned feature?

Hi RKKV, i have been thinking the same thing, infact the rocket launchers gifs from the last dev post has been taken in my new live testing environment. Although it has been designed to test new weapons on ships, in time i should be able to conduct something that is at least similar to SotS 2's testing scene. 

On multiplayer, well this is something i cannot promise even though when things wrap and vanilla is done and out, then i am sure i will make an attempt and see if i can.

Here is a screenshot of the new testing arena, where you can try your ship against 8 weapon platform armed with any weapon you set them up with. Each platform has 3 modes, order, auto and hold, where order fires upon clicking the fire command button, auto uses the base ai and power management rules as normal and with the hold mode you can disable the platform weaponry.  Your ship can fly around and use all the regular features and if anything gets destroyed it respawns in 3 seconds. 

Oh wow, that'll be pretty useful. Looking forward to the next update!
