      Can't play online or SP - Server Reject : Login name is Protected??

      Hi all...firstly thanks for trying to help me! Found out what was wrong. Comodo internet security was blocking Java from accessing the internet (intermittently - which is odd!). I only figured this out when I tried to install and play Feed The Beast and wasn't able to download any modpacks...

      Found out what was wrong. Comodo internet security was blocking Java from accessing the internet (intermittently - which is odd!). I only figured this out when I tried to install and play Feed The Beast and got very similar errors trying do download modpacks and play online. I added javaw.exe...

      Uplink fails - Unknown Host Exception :/

      I've searched the forums, and tried all of the suggestions ; re-download the game, etc. I can't uplink and so can't play online now. :/ I am able to log onto registry.star-made.org fine. Tested my password by logging out and back in. Please help. Thanks!

      Can't play online or SP - Server Reject : Login name is Protected??

      This is happening AGAIN now! The only solution I've found in the past is to lift the 'starmade starter' exe and let it reinstall in another folder - then I can log on but I need to use a different login name (same starmade credentials tho!) and I lose all my progress. :/ It's very irritating...

      I died in space and was respawned back at 2 2 2. If I try to buy something - I am told that I 'dont have enough money and that 'I can only buy for 0' (I have 900k or so ). If I try to sell something I am told that I don't have permission to use the shop. :/ So what now? Anyone know what...

      Can't play online or SP - Server Reject : Login name is Protected??

      The other day, after updating to 1.611 (i think) - I couldn't log into the server I normally play on. Got this error : IllegalArgumentException : unresolved address I figured the server might be down, so I left it, and now a couple of updates later - 1.617, I thought I'd see if things were...

      Understanding coordinates

      Thanks for the quick responses, and good explanation Aecetym, that makse sense. Wonder what happened to my station then... :/ (there should be a 'nav home' button in your faction menu - that would be useful i think) :)

      Understanding coordinates

      Last point - if my assumption is correct then the world size is immense - would that explain why I haven't seen a single pirate since I've started? Should I be venturing much further out to perhaps uncharted areas with better loot and mobs etc? Thanks .

      Understanding coordinates

      Hi All, I haven't seen a good explanation of how the coordinates work, and since I've now lost the space station I started, I guess I'd like a clearer understanding before starting my search! ;) I initially thought the 'world' was 16x16x16 sectors - effectively a giant 3d cube of sectors...

      How do I safeguard multiple ships - faction base?

      Thanks all for the replies, I didn't realise faction bases couldn't be destroyed, and nice to know you can locate it. Great game - wish I was a bit better at ship design tho! Harder than i thought!

      How do I safeguard multiple ships - faction base?

      Hi All, First let me just say.... Game is epic! Loved minecraft but this is just something else. I'm very keen to build ships and generally get stuck in. At the moment I have a ship that is essentially my home, but I'd very much like to be able to 'put it in the garage' and build something...
