I've compiled a complete chart of speeds (years of travel time) for fusion-powered space ships. The chart shows the optimum number of structurals to build for each viable combination of components and modules, and the travel time. As stated in the game manual, if you build fewer than the optimum number of structurals, some of the components won't be installed; but if you build more than the optimum number of structurals, the speed will decrease due to extraneous weight.
This chart goes all the way up to ships that have 4 + 4 + 4 modules.
It is available for purchase ($2.00) at http://www.mightywords.com

Mark,
I wondered the same thing, but didn't care enough to dig up the thread or the one from a week or so ago where someone was telling about seeing this kind of ad on another site.
Then again maybe it is just one of his customers who has finally seen the light and is just trying to get their money back from the rest of us.
When building the spaceship, assuming I get that far, I never have the luxury of deciding how big to make it. The problem is always can I get something launchable built, launched, and landed before the opposition.

When I first started to get close to beating the AI ar Deity, I was just behind it at getting a functional SS launched. So, I went back a decade and tried harder.
Everytime I did, the AI launched a faster SS.
I saved those files and looked at the SS formulas. It took about 20 tries (and going farther back in time) to beat the AI). But I have a decent selection of SS formulas for free:
15, 3, 3, 1, 1, 1 15.7 years
17, 4, 4, 1, 1, 1 13.2
18, 4, 4, 1, 1, 1 13.3
21, 5, 5, 1, 1, 1 10.0
23, 6, 6, 1, 1, 1 10.9
31, 8, 8, 3, 3, 3 12.0
33, 8, 8, 1, 1, 1 05.7
35, 6, 6, 1, 1, 1 09.0
Free! Like most everyone doesn't know those... Is there a faster one than the 33?

Does anyone know what the times are for these spaceships?
15,1,1,1,1,1
15,2,2,1,1,1
It's useful to know if you're going to launch before 1750ish!!!
