Can't dispute any facts listed on the game mechanics. I have not paid it any attention. On the rest, to each their own.
Personally I'm spending too much time mining and exploring to find new stations to notice or care how the enemy is spawned or how they like to craft their ships. Still getting to the point where I can build miners and have fighters etc....
On the example of enemy having hangers when their ships are built of iron and titanium.... How do you know this? I'm honestly asking, not being smug. When I destroy and salvage is the only way I could think of to know what they are made up of. If that is the case, don't we have to have a salvage beam that can break down certain types of resources? I've only got a titanium salvager and probably have not gotten to a sector with anything higher than titanium stuff.....
Anyway, sorry your not digging the game anymore, keep an eye on it. Maybe some of those things will change.
