I'm sure all the Fanboys are squealing as we speak xD

Which includes me o -o STATIONS!?!

 

[therimmer96]

Does this contain the new crafting and textures?

 

[WarmasterRaptor]

Can't wait to see the Station contest! There are already some awesome ones out there

Also, it will still be a Station for each ?

One for the Pirates, one for the Trade Guild and one for the neutrals ?

 

[schema]

There can be multiple stations for each. the game will just choose one at random each time a new station gets generated if there are more then one in a dir.

therimmer96 it contains most of the structure, but it's all WiP, so just use it at your own risk most of the stuff is for testing purpose

oh ,thank you sir ,my body is ready to recieve the list,cant wait to unleash my stations,i have some incredible ideas

 

[schema]

Materials will be basically unlimited. Just a few simple guidelines (more details will be posted on the actual announcement):

• Type of station (pirate, neutral, traders) has to be specified
• A certain color pallet should be used to identify the type (bluish for traders, reddish for pirates)
  
• no names of groups/etc are allowed as blocks on the stations (stations will be credited in the files)
• don't use too many valuable blocks as players raiding will be able to mine them
• Turrets are encouraged on pirate and trader stations
• Neutrals should be made look to be abandoned

this is just what I can come up with atm.

Also, currently, display block content isn't saved with the blueprint, but that will be added with the next update.

For the color pallets, are the default ships of those factions (TG and Pirates) will have those colors too in the future?

 

[BDLS]

Do we have the ability to save station blueprints while being in a build block now? Or do we have to manually extract the entity from the folder?

 

[schema]

stations can atm be saved as admin with the /save command, you then have just to move the folder for that entity over. I plan to have those color guildlines as a default, yes, but there are others allowed if the build is great

im working on concept art for 2 months now,with godlike level of detail,now we wait,for the full list
i was born to do this

 

[flpsantoss]

Schema, i don't know how you do it, but thanks, you are always getting this game even better every single day

 

[Cybertooth]

I've been meaning to ask, and its kinda relavent as we're talking stations: Is there a way to spawn in stations that i've saved with the /save command? Other than setting them as one of the pirate/trader ones.

 

[schema]

you can load stations also with the /load command atm. I want to integrate that in the GUI also in the coming updates
