Revision as of 17:06, 28 April 2020
Missiles are guided projectiles: they do damage upon impacting a target, oftentimes much more than any conventional weapon of a similar Tech Level could do. Missiles are therefore a good choice for players looking to increase their damage throughput, albeit a sometimes expensive one.
To use missiles, a player must have a Missile Launcher equipped in their inventory. The launcher cannot be higher tech than the ship, and any missiles the player wishes to use cannot be higher tech than the launcher.
To use missiles, you must target an enemy and use the missile, the missiles launched will then fly at their target (or will fly around you if they cannot see the target) and attempt to hit them, if the enemy leaves the star system or is killed, the remaining missiles will self destruct. They can also be shot down from enemy fire before reaching their target, and will despawn if they reach the end of their lifespan.
Most missiles have Resistances to Mining (75%) and Radiation (100%) damage and a vulnerability to Physical (200%) damage.

Lore
Missiles are rumored to have been invented when a Zebucart decided to ram a Fly at flank speed, destroying both ships instantly. While the people of Hyperion claim to be the aficionados on missile technology, that Zebucart was the pioneer. After the incident, researchers began investigating the possible uses of flinging several tons of metal at another object while travelling at near relativistic speeds. Initial results were promising, as it was discovered that all test subjects were reduced to carbon wisps. However, researchers denounced the technology, claiming that it was too expensive since the missiles had to withstand the harshness of space and also propel themselves to the target. This obstacle was overcome when a valiant undergrad intern decided to pack several hundred pounds of C4 into the back of a cylinder made of reinforced graphite. The resultant explosion annihilated his home planet, but the information he gathered proved invaluable. In any case, missile launchers advanced to the point where they could use anti-matter accelerators in order to propel the missiles. The missiles then only need attitude thrusters for control, reducing costs exponentially. Since then, missile technology has exploded, and the field continues to grow with each passing year.
