Allow me to share my thoughts on the Glitch AI Now you too can satisfy your oddly specific horse-woman fetishes.
http://playstarbound.com/space-battle-royale-glitch-a-i-edition/ THEY TROLLED US BUT I DON'T CARE BECAUSE WIZAAAAAAAAAAAARDS!
Also, Terramart. Spoiler But in all seriousness, I am going to LOVE the ship AIs. So much more progression and fun. Might actually get me back into playing Vanilla starbound.
*is still heartbroken because wanted horsewaifu* But at least we still get the best AI over the other races.
Seeing as how every starter ship comes with one at the very beginning, even when the ship is literally in shambles, yeah, I think they'd be common and easy to acquire. Plus, once you make one AI, it'd be cheap to copy it and send it around, wouldn't it?
oh would you look at that! it seems like female floran toplessness itnt a big deal *grumbling about nudity ban intensifies*
Them Floran's love sex-appeal too. She's literally bouncing her breasts as you ask to buy something. It's canon!
While they call it a ship "AI", it seems like it would be more akin to a "VI", tbh. At least for the sake of avoiding people using it as cop-outs for RP situations. Like... no using some sort of communicator to radio the AI of your ship for a quick pickup, orbital bombardment, etc.
If a ship is capable of orbital bombardment, it would make a bit more sense that an actual AI is on board. But yeah, agreed, it's probably more apt to call them a virtual intelligence.
