      Planetoid Instantiation

      Max weapon range prevents that anyways. Current \'planets\' can still be kept in the game - just call them asteroids or something.

      Build Block Fix

      The idea about faction points sounds cool. Ultimately, as long as something happens so that players cannot abuse the build block so badly - then I am happy.

      Planetoid Instantiation

      The basic idea here (yes I know it is not a new idea - however I want to gather all the pros and cons in one place) is instancing planets -- in a nutshell. What you would see from the player’s point of view would look exactly the same as when you approach a planet now. The difference being...

      Build Block Fix

      Then play on creative mode.

      Build Block Fix

      Simply make ships spawned via the player qualify for the \'placed by a player\' requirement. This is a proposed implementation for a survival type play mode. Not for total creative. By all means, keep this proposed feature out of creative - it only inhibits creative features. As for a...

      Orders of Magnitude (Planets & Asteroids)

      The entire point of my post isn\'t \"Make spherical planets, lol\". It\'s about instancing the planets so that they can be larger. Why are the planets not large now? (regardless of their geometry) Because of rendering/memory issues. If each planet is a loaded, instanced entity (think...

      Oh sweet. Didn\'t know that.

      Orders of Magnitude (Planets & Asteroids)

      Just a thought, but I feel that the current size of things is off a bit too much. I think it would be neat if the current asteriods were just simply called mini-asteriods, or micro asteriods and the current planets were instead called asteriods. I would say bust the current planets up, and...

      Build Block Fix

      If a friend built a station for you, you would be able to power delete with a build block because he meets the requirements of \'a player\'. Basically if ANY player placed the block, then it is eligible for quickly deleting from within build mode. Essentially the blocks become part of the...

      Build Block Fix

      As it stands, a player cannot use the build block on an asteroid at all. Also the player could build tunnels via astronaut mode. You would be able to edit a naturally generated station just fine - it would just take a little bit longer because you wouldn\'t be able to quickly delete blocks...

      Build Block Fix

      Perhaps implement this feature for non-creative types of game modes. A simple idea I had to keep the build block from ruining vanilla single player/server economies. If the ability to remove blocks while in build block mode only applied to blocks placed by a player (any player) then this would...
