      Critical Error

      What OS are you running and what version of the game are you running (stable or prebuild)? Do you have the newest version of Java?

      Navagations, Engines and Travel

      Just because we\'re in ALPHA doesn\'t mean we shouldn\'t make recommendations within reason. If an idea gets accepted, now might be the best time to lay the foundation even if it doesn\'t get implemented until BETA. Better to plan ahead than to re-write lots of code later, as with any software...

      A few questions

      It might not be exactly what you\'re looking for, but as for your second question: You cannot assign specific groups of systems to a cockpit, but people can enter computers on board your ship and control them remotely that way. Not exactly what you\'re looking for, but it\'s as close as you can...

      SocketException problem

      This may be a problem on your end. Are you beind a protected network? If so, do you own it? You might try taking down your firewall and then try connecting. Don\'t keep your firewall down, though. Just do that to test out your connection. Also, what operating system are you running?

      Game wont start

      If you have any other issues in the future (or if the OP is still having issues), it might help if you give us more information such as your operating system, and the exact version of Java you\'re using. For example, on some operating systems Java only installs up to a certain version, so...

      Navagations, Engines and Travel

      There are a few topics coming out in this thread that I\'d like to comment on. Right now ships can go up to one set speed, and as has been stated, that isn\'t the most convenient or fun. Engines could use some sort of power source that slowly replenishes. As such, traveling short distances...

      Background Music?

      Even if it\'s not dynamically triggered, some sort of in-game radio that the player coltrols by him-or-herself would still be really convenient. Personally, I\'d like to include my own music and set it up to play by myself! Or maybe some combination of these systems that allows the player to...

      Building in starmade, Its like cookie clicker. X(

      One topic that may be slightly related to this is ladders. I, personally, like building ships outside of the \"Build Mode\", so moving around to do so can be a little tough. Ladders would make that a bit easier. Also, it would be cool to have ladders as a way to get from deck-to-deck in a ship...

      Minerals stacking improvement

      I like this idea. Maybe even highlight any stacks of a given item you already have while you\'re dragging it. Or maybe there could be some sort of button in the Plex Storage Unit GUI to \"Consolidate Resources\" and it could automatically stack like items. This would be very convenient!

      Docking "Target Not Combatable"

      Not sure if this will help in your specific case, but I sometimes have this issue and I can dock if I change my angle of approach (turn around or whatnot). Of course this is a workaround rather than a fix. This is relatively simple, and I imagine you\'ve tried it by now, but I thought I\'d toss...

      Greetings!

      Hey all, I'm Docithe, but you can call me Doc! I'm a computer programmer from the US, and one of my friends introduced me to this game several days ago. I started playing it that day, and I could barely stop for hours. When I finally stopped, I purchased it immediately. It's a very addicting...
