Even though a single block of light armor weighs over 900kg, and a single block of heavy armor weighs over 3,000kg... the heavy armor is NOT stronger than the light armor, against rockets or machine guns!

Note:  The changelog says that bullet damage will be reduced, but says nothing about rocket damage...

The heavy armor fails after one rocket blast, just like the light armor.  The machine gun causes the same amount of damage to both blocks.

According to the mass-vs-strength ratio, the heavy armor should be able to take at least 4 rocket blasts before it fails.  However, I would assume the heavy armor is a stronger alloy, therefore, it should be able to take way more than 4 blasts.

How can we possibly build large ships if one little rocket destroys them?

I am sure this is a simple mistake, please try to correct upon next update.  Thanks!

P.S.  Great job on the Camo!!!

P.S.S.  I really hope someone will help the Space Engineers development team fix their grammar issues!  A "Rotor" should be a "Servo Motor", and a "Reflector Light" should be a "Spot Light".  Seriously.  It is basic common knowledge.  Look it up!

Space Engineers utilizes a realistic volumetric-based physics engine: all objects can be assembled, disassembled, damaged and destroyed.  Space Engineers is a sandbox game about engineering, construction and maintenance of space works. Players build space ships and space stations of various sizes and utilization (civil and military), pilot ships and perform asteroid mining.
