Could you explain your plans for the AI Blade, NPC crew, and computer components for our ships?
TL;DRThe AI Blade and NPC crew are gameplay-designer systems, not the ship team's; the AI Blade will eventually be a vehicle item within the ship computer, but nobody is working on it currently.
Now, those seem to be very kind of separate questions and unfortunately the first two systems are for gameplay designers and not the ship team. But we wanted to mention it just because it was the top voted question and to inform the questions that come into live that we're trying to focus on more of the ship design and less on the gameplay function of this kind of stuff. Is the AI Blade as a ship component something that's in your wheelhouse, John?
It will be something that's in my wheelhouse eventually when we actively start working on it because it will be a vehicle item that's part of the computer item which goes in the ships. So yes, eventually it will be, but we're not currently as of this moment working on it.
Okay, so down the pipeline, all these computer components being able to swap in and out, including one of them being, hopefully, the AI Blade to slot in there.
Yeah.
