You're an angel. <3

Please change the font to Segoe UI, the current one is not good. Thanks.

Blame Laz for choice of fonts. It's used on all of our tutorials and no one complained so far so I assume it's readable enough. If more people are bothered with the font, it can be easily changed.
RE: Pimpship Guide - Venkman - 07-11-2018
This font is pretty harsh on your eyes. Having white color is even worse. Whereas this font works well with any color and it's not eye heavy.
I was going through some other tutorials and most of them use either Times New Roman or just a default font.

The font is actually Abel on all of them (or at least should be), and Agency FB is it's fallback font. Guess you don't have Abel available so you see Agency FB, Times New Roman or default one. I'll check it later today and make it a bit more standardized and more eye-appealing. Thanks for feedback.

You're right, I apologize. I didn't have Abel font installed, but if people don't have this installed they will see it in Agency FB which is awful.
Abel is alright, but I think you should remove the Agency FB from those posts.

I agree. Will do it when I get home if Dino or Ash don't do it first.

Also...the tutorial picture:

Back then the forum didn't allow for such nice text formating, so I had made it into a crappy picture.
Ah, I remember when I first started years ago; I lucked into some codenames and sold 'em for, well, a lot. The first thing I did was buy a Wasp, the very next, I had a Wasp with rainbow lights all over it... Sad to see that the Wasp is retired. I couldn't fight for anything, but people always said nice things about my flashy ship. Thanks for the memories.
EDIT
On the non-existent chance that someone else is gonna pimp a CSF, here's a light map
RE: Pimpship Guide - Tenacity - 10-28-2018
Having some issues with the medium deep blue source lights, the light effect on the hull seems to glitch on and off randomly based on camera angle, moving or rotating the camera quickly can make it seem like they're almost strobe lights. Not sure what's causing it.
