Hey, I found this impossible to make design. It somehow comes out to costing zero and the game doesn't like that.

There are a few cases of this, and I pointed out some of them some time ago.  I just didn't bother to look back to see if it was fixed.

Ya, I did just that.

Anyways, I searched a bit and didn't find anything on it, so I just thought I'd post it.

hmm... it would seem it also goes to 0 cost at any point when you have 609 energy, 1% acc, and just raise weight and attack, to cancel each others cost out, it still costs 0.  hope this helps 1

weight: 99960
energy: 609
attack: 10036508
Acc: 1%
cost: 0


oh, and I think a side note should be put here, just because this system says it costs 0 credits, WON'T make the ship free, this will still actually cost almost exactly the same in the end.  each weight you use on the system, or any system, will eventually cost you total of 165.  every point of energy will eventually cost -something- while making the powercore, which then means more weight used, which then means more cost in the ship overall.  so technically, while this may -appear- to be a major problem, getting a system for free, in reality, the system STILL is not free, as long as it uses ANY energy and weight.

hope that helps any reading this thinking 'WOW, I gotta try that, the perfect weapon!'  because the weapon system itself won't do anything, without a ship, and that has no chance of ever costing 0.

Erm, yes, exactly right.

However, the game won't even let you create designs with zero cost.
