Customizable color omniblocks are a brilliant idea. I imagine this would allow for building generic ships that various factions, guilds, etc. to, say, have all their players have their ships in black-red or blue-orange-yellow.

Thanks for your reply. I think that generating a new texture for already generated planets could be a nice touch since it'd make (bigger) structures visible from far away. As for my black-block workaround, I think it could be done if, before loading planet chunks, the server sent the client...

Well, I generally keep them all in one topic if they're related but have been told (on other forums) to generally try to make one topic per idea. If I'm not wrong, schema is the boss around here so it's really up to his preferences.

I also said "I'm all for sci-fi stuff like time or transluminal travel, structures or spaceships beyond what is physically possible, etc. but only when there are merits to it.", and space ships, reactors providing infinite energy, etc. all count as such. The weakest weapon being called an...

You know, this isn't even an argument. Since this is just a game, we should make acceleration work backwards, make the background green and all blocks purple. Instead of void the space should be filled with candies and the players should be triangles that shoot lasers when you try to move them...

Just wanted to point out that antimatter weapons are quite likely the most powerful weapons possible to create, being approximately 23,000 times more powerful than nuclear warheads(energy yield per kilogram) and that shooting a beam of antimatter and having it destroy as little as 1m³ of a...

It seem to take some time to load the chunks, before which the planets are completely invisible. My suggested workaround(before you get chunk loading to be efficient enough) is to use pitch-black chunks for where the planet is going to be (using simply a distance and height checks to see where...

> My too i'm this bug :S Oh god oh god oh god. Somebody save me.

Argh, I'm repeating the second time that I don't mean directional thrusters as in what you're thinking of. I merely mean something that adds to the ship rotation and non-forward movement speed regardless of placement or orientation.

Personally I think that there should be at least three different docking blocks - one that only allows docking and keeps the ship motionless, one that allows rotation and one that allows moving forward/backward on it (with alignment being decided by shape) Normal one would require enough...

Only the keybindings are. You can't swap ctrl+mouse and q/e around or really bind roll control to anything other than mouse.

That's not what this thread is about.

It won't really offer any advantages to anyone because they will fly faster only if the one shooting them is going straight forward towards the enemy. And faster missiles won't be harder to dodge since homing will be less effective at such velocities. What it would fix is the ridiculousness of...

Yeah, figured that out, but what I find truly regrettable is that you can't build a really small

Speaking of shops, you should ensure that they at least have power and thruster blocks since their lack makes it kinda hard to do anything. Also, salvage should mine faster because right now it's faster to just get out of the ship and dig manually.
