That is the correct mechanic, but the reason why is a bit more nuanced. Here is how to actually calculate your power. For each disconnected power generator, add up its three dimensions and divide by three. For each of those numbers, raise it to the power of 1.7. Then add up all the numbers...

\"2. Turrets will fire at a selected entity, if told so.\" I have had a lot of trouble getting my turrets to fire at enemy turrets, on either targeting mode. If I attack a pirate station, my own turrets usually only fire at one or two of the station turrets.

Didn\'t the real Death Star have turrets?

My third try at this topic since I was using the wrong term before… sorry for spam. What I am trying to find out is an exact formula for the Reload speed of Antimatter Cannons, as a function of number of connected blocks. If this formula is not yet known, I am also looking for people who are...

I had originally posted this in Help, but just in case it's better suited here: Does anyone have any updated information on the formula for Reload time of Antimatter Cannons? It's clearly changed a lot since the wiki was updated, and even that was supposedly just an approximation. If no one...

Or just get rid of all the different kind of shapes and let the generic block be placed in any of the shape types.

Ok, thanks for terminology correction (although I did say \"or a similar device that introduces angular momentum\"). I haven\'t built a truly massive ship yet but so far I have not seen any effect on turning speed by adding more engines… and ships can turn even without engines. So one of two...

Thank you, I totally overlooked that option.

I'm sure this question has been asked a million times but I didn't see it on the first page here. If I want to play single-player, am I just supposed to point the launcher to localhost:4242? When I do this the StarMade Connector hangs on "connection to localhost:4242". Also, is it possible...

Except you aren\'t using your thrusters for turning; you don\'t even need thrusters on the ship to turn. It seems logical then that ships turn using gyroscopes or a similar device that introduces angular momentum. But that wouldn\'t change the fact that being more massive or wider would reduce...

You wouldn\'t be able to dock if the other ship had a faction module set to a different faction. And of course you would need the other ship to have an appropriately sized docking area. Otherwise it should work in principle?

Does anyone know a precise formula for the recoil of antimatter cannons, as a function of quantity? I checked out a bunch of values between 1 and 10k and could not determine the exact pattern. All I can see is it seems to approach 105.5 or so for large quantities.

It still seems a bit ridiculous that shooting your main weapons disengages the cloak while shooting with turrets does not.

Thank you, that is exactly what I was looking for!

After some more experimenting, I have come up with a tentative premise: the amount of energy used by N disconnected guns is (much) more than N times the energy used by a single gun. With testing I have established that a single 8-length AMC uses about 335 e/sec. However, an array of 310...
