Thanks all for the comments on this.

So it was something to do with the rail guns, and some kind of improvements in how quickly they fire vs how they used to fire.

I was basically creating 250 ammo a minute, when I required 350+.

• Land mines on space platforms now damage the space platform tiles in a radius.

Version 2.0.24 introduced a (controversial but awesome) change to Space Platforms using “reactive armor”.

Thanks but no landmines used on my ships

I've had my Promethium science ships running for a week or so now without any issues. I don't think they even took any real damage.

I just updated to 2.0.28 (from 2.0.23) and they both died on their first run to the shattered planet which seemed odd..

Does anyone know of any changes that might ...

I also created this video, in the video I deleted a non-working generator, and then re-added it.

This seemed to make it worse and stopped several generators next to it from working, when they were previously working.

I noticed that sometimes when I place down my fusion power blueprints, not all the generators receive plasma.

This is despite it being a working blueprint, and the same blueprint next to it (or on a different planet) will work fine.
