      New Pulse Weapons

      Haven\'t played around with the new pulse weapon yet, so I\'m not really clear on how they work or anything, but the first thing that came to mind was to build a ship that could drop a bunch of mines and push them into enemys. Thoughts?

      Ship Armor

      I\'ve been looking at this a little bit more, and I think I got something else wrong. I don\'t think that hardened hulls currently have some kind of damage reduction, rather, it looked like they just have more hit points. If this is the case, then I\'m proposing the addition of damage...

      Ship Armor

      I didn\'t realize that was how missiles worked. Thanks for the input! I guess I just assumed that missiles did damage in layers, that it had to destroy one layer of blocks to deal damage to the ones behind it. Do you know if there will be changes to how this splash damage is done in the future?

      Ship Armor

      What if there were different levels of hardened hull with diffent mass? I'm not sure if this is better suited for Suggestions, but I just wanted to get some feedback and discussion regarding this idea I was thinking about. There seems to be a lot of discussion about the new shield changes, and...

      Reactor Breeder - A Genetic Algorithm for Reactor Design

      Loving the work you\'re doing on this, ThyLordRoot! I\'ve been spending quite a bit of time trying to work out all the power algorithms and designing optimal setups, especially optimizing the 5x5x5 cube. Glad we can all put out heads together to try to solve this thing. I have a few things to...

      Power Regen: 10000 e/sec, 5x5x5 Box?

      After reading through some more of the comments here, I did want to clarify that I did NOT come up with that 9927.5 design myself and am not trying to take credit for inventing it or anything. I saw a picture somewhere that I unfortunatly can\'t find anymore showing one side of the cube. I...

      It's over 9000 (questions on power)

      Here\'s a link to another thread where I explained the layout the the 5x5x5 cube I\'m using that generates 9927.5 e/sec. http://star-made.org/comment/15378#comment-15378 Below my post agentEE7 does a nice little breakdown of how this reator is structured to provide this amount of power. I\'m...

      The Catalogue System is Absolutely Broken and is Exploitable

      While I agree that the catalogue system is extremely exploitable at the moment, I really like the feature and hope that it can simply be balanced better. I also believe much of the imbalance in the game right now stems from the ease of making money. Assuming methods of making credits are...

      Corner Wedges

      I've been playing around with making more aesthetically pleasing ships, and I love that there are blocks other than plain cubes to work with. However, I would love to see more corner wedge options, specifically an "opposite" corner, where two wedge pieces could join on the inside. Also, a...

      Power Regen: 10000 e/sec, 5x5x5 Box?

      My apologies that I can\'t post a screenshot, as I\'m not on my home computer, but here is the design that I\'m using for 9927 e/sec 5x5x5 cube. X = SD HCT xm3.4 Power blocks 0 = Empty space or other filler blocks X X X 0 X 0 0 0 0 X X 0 X 0 X X 0 0 0 0 X 0...
