      Is there any server like 2b2t for StarMade

      Actually, Minecraft doesn't have tools to ensure 100% compatibility of the converted world for future stuff. Every time a world updates to a new version in which new biomes are added, the world seed's output will change and new terrain will not have any continuity with old terrain. Consequently...

      Brainstorm This: Crew Chambers (no crew)

      Another thing: it's confirmed that once crew is added, there'll be a morale mechanic where you have to keep crew happy, or else they'll mutiny. One way of implementing that feature before crew NPCs themselves are added would be chambers specifically to provide for the needs of the crew, like...

      Brainstorm This: Crew Chambers (no crew)

      This. This is what the building meta should be. There have been so many flamewars and failed balancing changes to try and address the fact that interior spaces, cool as they are, are not at all useful. However, many of the proposed solutions, and a recently implemented solution (looking at you...

      new planets

      I think planets should be a lot bigger (more space to build), and not all load at the same time (less lag). There also need to be more kinds of planets, and variation within a single type (so not all forest planets are the same, not all savannah planets are the same, etc.). As much as I'd like...

      Have NPC pirates spawn in stations

      NPCs definitely need more attention. Hopefully, once the crew update eventually comes out, there'll be NPCs to guard the interiors of generated stations, and to pilot NPC ships.

      Not Garbage Resource Mechanics

      One issue with crafting and item production is that it's just not very intuitive, for a couple of reasons. One is that none of the resources or factory types closely correspond to any real-world material or production process; the other is that all of the resources can be found in more or less...

      Renewable Resources from Planets: Core Drilling and Plant Farming

      So, technically, this is two suggestions in one, and they both involve obtaining renewable resources from planets. Right now, the most useful purpose of planets is stripping their crusts off for ore; so adding the ability to use planets as a steady source of renewable resources would make...

      "Heat Boxes" and Crew - Why it Works

      Exactly. That's why there ought to be more of a gameplay reason for there to be aesthetically pleasing stuff in ship's interiors. If there isn't, interior aesthetics is pointless. And of course, anything that takes away from existing gameplay just for the sake of giving people room for...

      "Heat Boxes" and Crew - Why it Works

      In my opinion, the solution to the problem of gameplay vs. aesthetics isn't necessarily the implementation of restrictions on existing gameplay systems, but rather the implementation of new gameplay systems that encourage aesthetics, namely, a crew system that encourages aesthetic building in...

      The Importance of Planets

      Planets do need to be more interesting, if not now, then eventually. It is a space game, after all, and space games that have planets generally have things to do on those planets. Planets have only been improved a handful of times in the past; hopefully, the upcoming improvements will add more...

      Should Factories/Industry be More Challenging?

      It would be interesting if different categories of items required different types of factories to make. Already, capsule refineries are used exclusively to make resource capsules, but what if there were paint factories that only made paint, armor factories that only made armor, computer...

      Appeal to the Council: A Noisy Niche

      In my opinion, something that both Starmade and Minecraft majorly lack (but more so with Starmade, for now at least) is a reason to do things. Starmade's building system is super in-depth and complex, and gives you far more options than minecraft does, but the gameplay loop is simple: build...

      Give us the ability to run

      We should also be able to crouch down to 1-meter height. Crawling through ventilation shafts and other 1-block holes needs to be possible. After all, if we can do it when inside a ship core, why not at other times too?

      a couple of graphical HUD bugs

      Basically, every time I start Starmade, no matter what graphical settings I specify in the launcher, I run into a couple of problems with the HUD which I never had with my last computer, which is the exact same model. The first one is that the colored arrows around the center of the screen that...
