      Dear server owners.

      I disabled blueprints because they don\'t work. They do not save properly from the server or on the server. They do not load properly either from an upload or from a save into the catalogue. Some of them work some of them don\'t, no rhyme or reason as to why a ship will save correctly and...

      Suggestion: Use Our Suggestions

      although the crafting/recipe system seems odd, there is more to it. beetlebear stated they were going for more of a scientific aproach to recipe/crafting/making stuff. there is currently a feature that was added as an easter egg that allows a player to breakdown items into base elements and...

      Unification of servers (Radical Suggestion)

      As a server owner, I don\'t want to play on a server run by others. Second, the software is not currently capable of even handling 64 players on a server with out crashing after a period of time.

      ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when near sector 8,5,2

      turn off pirates in the config, it seems when they attack they are causing part of the problem. second once you turn them off, do /despawn_all MOB unused true to clear all the old mob ships. third, find the ships that were interacting with the mobs and delete them from the database, this was...

      Food

      First time doesn\'t matter, just like minecraft, this is an alternate universe so future, past, present not really important. Second, water is required for carbon based lifeforms to exist, so, need to figure out a way to produce it and use it. Third, again oxygen is required also. Fourth...

      Reflexion to favorise balance tweaks to favor more diverse ships and gameplay

      People who TRULY understand space and newtonian physics would prolly say, games can never be what the real thing is. Decompression in space is quite a bit different than implosion in a submarine. The closest thing we can come to in our real world would be what happens when a plane loses...

      Reflexion to favorise balance tweaks to favor more diverse ships and gameplay

      First, I would like to speak to the comparison of space ships to earth bound entities. When referring to an earth bound 2 dimensional battleship or carrier and comparing these 2 dimensional behemoths that are affected by gravity to a space based \"carrier craft\" or a \"large ship created for...

      Anybody kill a capital in a fighter yet?

      the ships most affected by the sheild change are the the destroyer to battlecruiser classes, so ships between 100 and 1500 mass. My 290 mass cruiser with 60k shields, power storage of 60k and power regen of 60k could withstand about 20 seconds of fire from 600 hp of amc\'s. Where as the 4000...

      A solution to catalog buying lag and infinite resources ruining the economy

      Infinite Resources As you can buy ships for credits cost alone, you can effectively transmute any type of resource into any other by selling resources to a shop, and then buying ships from a catalog for those credits. I won\'t deny the convenience of being able to do this, however it does mean...

      Is there any way to stop people from using the Catalog in the server?

      I was able to shutdown the uploads of blueprints by changing the permissions on my linux os to read only for the blueprint directory, as well as all the other files and directories in the blueprints directory. So if you are running a linux server just change your perms to rrr or 444 which ever...
