      My Thoughts on the New SM

      Excuse me but its not within my interests to spend 20 minutes (minimum for straight and clear cut ones) writing a bug report to then have them spit back 5 days later (Yes, it can take this long as a MINIMUM for feedback - I've sometimes waited months) that "Oh, we already knew this issue". Also...

      My Thoughts on the New SM

      released and forced upon us early, disabling 4 weapons effects, another 3 effects dont work properly (Momentum), half the weapons are glitching out (Beam/beam, and beam+Explosive), AI cant seem to find their targets anymore (fire sideways and missing a ship by clear 200m when firing forwards)...

      My Thoughts on the New SM

      Integrity bludgeons with a giant metal 1-dimensional rod people who use certain systems decoratively. All my ships refitted thus far begin with negative thrust integrity because I use them in lining my corridors for their grey line effect.

      My Thoughts on the New SM

      Actually, Island-ships arent really that much an issue since right now the reactor purple alien hentai tentacle disables or interrupts the power supply. Try doing that at combat ranges Let alone, trying to do that while the island ship 1-shots you anyway because it has maximum stabiliser...

      Station Docking/Power

      To be honest a ship docked to a station should not disable its reactor, since docking to a station is not a close system coupling unlike using turrets. That and fuel isnt a thing yet. Its not as if a station undergoes """Warp Stresses""" or anything and thus needs to shut down every reactor bar...

      A Brief History of Aesthetican Ships

      OhShitIWasTagged.jpg Yeah, I remember crawling through and gutting the Destroyer for "needless" armour and wasteful systems (I think half of it was power cap in the end anyway) and adding in a set of AUX to its belly to generate power for its staged-alpha ion beam so you used the Regeneration...

      Literally just invert the stabilizer distances.

      Or the old cheat-Engine exploit to change build_mode_area to whatever number you want on a client and it transferred as, say, 50x50x50 cubes placed on the server. Back when 10 was the hard cap.

      Literally just invert the stabilizer distances.

      What are we going to fill that space with??? Grass blocks? Dolom? CACTUS? FLOWERS? Because thats what you are essentially doeing by saying " We want less blocks inside a ship. You have entirely forsaken armour as a defence. Its just not viable at all for a whole multitude of reasons. Filling...

      Literally just invert the stabilizer distances.

      WHAT IS THE POINT of them currently then? They are just a stupid annoying block that we NEED to place to get ANYTHING from our reactors and need to be like 1km away on larger builds. Their purpose is to get in the way of building any ship that isnt a stretched turd

      Literally just invert the stabilizer distances.

      This is mentioned a few times, and I am an Advocate of it. THis also means that that fancy "Reactor Hull" math malarkey wasnt wasted dev time. We use the Hull to generate a Radius that Stabalizers need to be placed in to add to the reactor. Big ships on the scale of say old 500k mass-ers at...

      New Power DEV Thread

      Except that Stabilisers, I think, would be 1/2 of the power to the main reactor itself. By allowing them to be separated by some small to medium radius, RP Builders may have a central, closed reactor Chamber, then have the stabilisers inside an adjacent closed chamber or hidden above the hull...

      New Power DEV Thread

      the OPPOSITE to the current system. Use the convex hull distance calculations and make stabilisers have to be within a certain radius of the reactor to work. Bigger reactors have a larger working radius to go by, with the smallest reactors requiring the stabalizers to be practically adjacent...

      New Power DEV Thread

      The problem with the old system was that you were punished as an RP type builder on the smaller scale. If you wanted rooms inside the vessel this really hampered the use of extending the 3D power tree because you literally run out of space to fit it against tight areas, while being incredibly...

      How useful actually is armour?

      Just logged in and page refreshed and finally someone mentions that weapons and offence outstrips defence capabilities severely. However, Atra mentions that pierce weapons arent common, however, Missile-beam-Pierce IS majorly common and chews up armour blocks like no tomorrow. Without effects...
