Troll items:

• Rift Expeller (weapon): When fired at a ship, it causes it to phase out of reality (to the final battle :)) If at final battle, it instead duplicates that ship exactly (same damage, weapon condition, etc.)

Space travel:

• Sub-Light: standard space travel, not much here, standard drive (early game)
• Lightspeed: almost speed of light, really fast, but time dilation effects.... mid tier, standard/lightspeed drive (early midgame)
• Hyperspeed: drive brings you into hyperspace, where there is no speed limit, and movement is 100x, needs a hyperspace drive and a standard drive, (midgame)
• Jumpspeed: a tiny wormhole in hyperspace, moves extremly fast, basically instant, needs a hyperspace drive, standard drive, and a tunnel generator (orbital station, late-game) or a jump drive (ship system, extremely late game)

Galaxy Gen:

• Starting System connects to clusters, which are made up of multiple systems connected closely. Clusters Connect to each other and lonely systems.
• Semi-Procedural, clusters, systems, planets, and moons are defined but have the abiltiy for randomness
• World surface is random but uses that world's stats to guide generation
• all generation is procedural, galaxy seed and size is all that is needed to gen galaxy, surfaces have their own seed and are tied to a planet/moon
• Also will be asteroid clouds, and ejected planets

Gameplay:

• 3 (4?) "modes":
  • On Surface
  • In space
  • Space combat
  • Ground combat?
• On surface you build a factory, create ships and stuff
• In space you fly around to get to new planetary bodies

COMBAT: You control your fleet (similar to MOO2), but ships have inertia and stuff Weapon types:

• Laser: Beam weaponry, high armor damage, medium shield damage, but is incapable of pierce, has poor structure damage, and fire control is based on heat generated by firing
• Ballistic: Like a railgun or a cannon, has good shield damage, high armor and structure damage, but low armor and shield pierce, requires ammo, and has a low fire rate
• Plasma: like laser cannons and stuff, average in all respects
• Missile: Self explanitory, high damage to armor and structure, and decent armor pierce, with excellent shield pierce, but requires ammo, and does no shield damage

Shield types:

• Sectional Absorbtion: only covers an area, absorbs damage, and can be pierced, high regen and medium hp
• Encirclement Absorbsion: covers full ship, absorbs damage, and can be pierced, high regen and medium hp
• Sectional Barrier: only covers an area, absorbs damage, and cannot be pierced, requires an absorption shield in that area, 2x disabled regen bonus, very high hp but low regen
• Encirclement Barrier: covers full ship, absorbs damage, and cannot be pierced, requires an absorption shield, 2x disabled regen bonus, very high hp but low regen

If a shield loses its hp, it pops and takes 50% system damage

Popped shields take two turns to restart and can only be reenabled after its hp gets to 25% full

Disabled shields get a 2x regen bonus until reenabled

Calculations:

• Shield piercing: $\min\left(1, \frac{\min(SD, SI)}{SI} \times PC\right)$
