I'd like to know if a ship's hull will have any weak spots. Could those spots be exploited to strategically damage underlying components, for example a coolant line running underneath the hull?asked by Eric

Well, the way the ship parts work is they have physical locations in the ship, so if you do shoot through the armor, for instance, and hit a certain location, you might damage different components.

So it's not a whole point that's weak.

Not necessarily that much detail, but certainly there are spots you should aim for. Like, for instance, the Aurora says 'target here', with missiles sitting on top.
