I always liked this because this is just good design for safety reasons.
On the other hand, anything that was designed from the start to have the user choose between diverting power between two different systems for them to work at maximum efficiency is pants on head retarded and dangerous.

Technically it goes like:
>Engines
>Weapons
>Sensors
>Shields

>FTL is advertised as working like this
>there's no point in wasting scrap on building system upgrades before you need them, and if you have to divert power in combat you're basically fucked anyway
Is this even a question? Only in death does duty end.

I want a game with dedicated point-defense ships shooting down missiles with high powered lasers at extremely long range.

Did the creator fix his installer yet so that you didn't have to fuck around in your registry to make it work?
