FTL: Faster Than Light

Also, air takes a strangely long amount of time to vent in my experience.

Try opening multiple paths to the room you want to vent, that makes it vent a lot faster. Also, you can double-click the open doors button to open ALL the doors, including the airlocks.

Did I not just say I had Beacon Paths on? Go to Options and turn that on.

I was wondering wtf you were talking about because the image you posted didn't show it.

[LordoftheUnclean]

Yeah. The problem is that I get the door upgrade every single time I don't get boarded.

Also, air takes a strangely long amount of time to vent in my experience. This gives boarders time to blow your shield unit, drone control or fire control to stuff, aka the only things keeping you alive, especially with the engi ship.

Depending on which Engi ship variation you're using, theres 2 different strategies that can rape boarders.

With A:
Vent every single room except for Weapons, Shields, Engines, and Bridge. Then upgrade doors, and you'll be set.

With B:
Since you only have 1 crewmember, vent everything except for the bridge, it'll automatically deal with any fires, and your droids already onboard can do any repairing in a vacuum.

I just bought this game and its amazing

[Axolotl2]

tip 3: only do tip 2 if your ship is a piece of stuff without airlocks or your crew can't fight

Tip 4: Axolotl sucks at FTL

Airlocks are fun to mess with. I like it how you can completely block off a sector of your ship to invaders, and then suck all the air out :)

Made it to the boss, Didint have enough firepower to take it down because i had 2 ions and only 1 heavy laser. tier 2 def droid helped but not enough crew to repair everything fast enough.

I realized FTL has effective oxygen equalization. I always open most of the ship up to screw up boarders. When they die, only 3-4 rooms still have oxygen. What I do is press the close doors button then the open doors button to only open inside doors. The oxygen from those rooms makes the rooms overall become safe a lot quicker than just waiting for the O2 to refill them.

I just power my o2 up to 3 bars.
It's crazy. On the Red Tail, the room before the roosterpit can have one door open to the vacuum of space yet it is still safe enough for crew members to stay there indefinitely. That, or I'm imagining things that the health bar of my crew isn't going down.

I find investing in O2 a waste. The only times I've done it were when I maxed out shields, weapons, sensors, doors, etc. And then I'd just steal power off it for other things.

Temporarily of course. I take the power from my drones. After that I drain it back to 1 bar.

I killed the flagship's first form. I thought I won.
Then during second form he spawned like 10 different drones. wtfman. Is there a drone I can buy that shoots other drones? Or should I just cloak when he does those surges?

Cloak and pray they go away before your cloak runs out.

And bomb the stuff out of their drone control.
