Hardspace: Shipbreaker, blue collar space sim about salvage

One amazing trick to know about panels:

They are surrounded on four sides by four aluminum beams. You can melt those beans with your stinger (helps to have the heat upgrades). Just burn them for several seconds until they glow and then melt. Then you can extract the panel, radiation unit, doorway, etc.

Knowing this is useful for so many disassemblies. The salvage loss for melting the beams is negligible.

In fact in many situations, such as something dangerous behind a panel, you can just melt the whole panel itself.
Just keep it glowing until it melts, might require you to back off a couple of times before your cutter overheats depending on heat upgrades. If you melt the whole panel like this it disintegrates and doesn’t affect anything around it.
