I got a cert to be able to use a Dunelizard starship and I went out and found a dunelizard chassis blueprint (style 2) went to the chasis dealer, he said he made the ship, I have all sorts of engines and crap in my inventory, but after I guessed and just put in whatever seemed best (cause how would i know really?) it says there is no reactor...also i noticed there is no droid interface and capacitator.

Is there anyone who can tell me where/how to get these things, and what to do w/ them once I get them?
Is there a website or even something in the game that explains ANY of this?
Do I have to be a rocket scientist (litterally lol) to be able to play this game now?
*pulls out hair*

am I doing something wrong here?

o and what type of reactor should I buy? I found some at the bazzar but i have no idea what kind to get?!


*bounces* please please Please help!

x-posted in kauri too because thats what server I am on, but no one is responding.

You need a Reactor to power all the parts in your ship and a Capacitor to power your blasters. If your 1/0/0/0 then you have Cert 1 for parts. So buy parts that say Cert 1 (taking 0/1/0/0 will give you cert 2 and 3, allowing for better parts). Basicly on the Reactor, the highest power output you can find. On the capacitor, capacitor energy and recharge rate are the most important. The higher the better on all of them.

I'm sure if you do a search you can find a faq on this. Also.. read your manual!

Fix the forums so they work properly with Firefox! PLEASE!

You can find them on the bazaar under starship components or something like that. You click on it and it opens about 11 subcategories, click on the reactor subcategory (or droid interface, or capacitor). If you don't find any or you don't find one you want or are qualified for, click on planet (by default it is region). If this still doesn't get what you would like try galaxy wide. If this doesn work then youcan find a shipwright and either have them make one or visit his/her vendor and see what they have available. One way is to go to Theed or Coronet and watch all the people advertising their wares, and look for ship componets, or open your planet map (control + v) and click on vendors and see if any of the subcategorieshas someone who has a vendor designated as bearing ship chasis blueprints and/or ship component or equipment.

Once you have the reactor, droid interface and capacitor you are most likely ready to go. I say most likely becaue you might have the components but you can't place everything because it goes over the ship's mass limits (when you bring up your screen to manage your ship in the lower right cornor you will see: # / # for mass and energy (the bottom one doesn't change so you don't need to worry about it). If the first # before the / would end up being larger than the # behind the /, then the game will not let you load the equipment as this would make the total mass great than the mass tolerances of the ship.

The second set of numbers deals with energy. If the first # beforethe / is larger than the second # after the / then it will allow you to load it but this will cause you problems in battle. It is very likely not all your equipment will work as their is to large of and energy drain on the amount you have available from your reactor. So try to keep this in mind.
