#Spaceship to reach solar edge

what seems to be the problem?
Like why my spaceships didn't work or what?
yes
not enough firepower and/or poor production of ammo
try testing a front shape in /editor, with the amount of speed you want it to go
use infinity chests to supply ammo
check how fast it uses ammo, and build the rest of the ship to provide it
you can build as large as you want, or compact it with quality, beacons, and modules
you should have plenty of power if you use fusion
ehh, I will try agein
I do use fusion
Make sure that the rail guns are set to focus on the huge asteroids. They can still fire at large asteroids but they must only do so if there are no huge asteroids in range. Like wise make sure that gun turrets only fire at asteroids they can actually damage as otherwise they will waste a huge amount of ammo dealing no damage. Like wise you will want missiles to only fire at rocks that need them, as using missiles on medium and small asteroids is a waste of ammo.
Defence needed depends on speed. You can simply drop your speed to make things a lot easier. Slower speed means more time for ammo to be made and guns to fire.
Consider using quality parts. Quality turrets can shoot further giving them more time to intercept projectiles. Quality machines work faster allowing more ammo to be made. Quality productivity modules, beacons and speed can be combined to make ammo both cheaply and quickly in a small space.
Upgrading weapons with technology helps a lot. The faster fire rate for the railguns is a huge help and required for higher speed flight. Certain break points for missiles and gun turret damage means fewer shots per asteroid destroyed and so less ammo used.
