It looks a bit like a sword.

Awesome!

Starmade needs a lot of balancing, and I expect there will be a lot of content added before it\'s ready for official launch. You have a lot of good observations here. I have been thinking similar things. An amunition system for weapons that don\'t fire energy makes sense.

Yes, it would be useful to have the docking module pair with a block on the ship other than the core, so you can move it around if the docking configuration isn\'t ideal. as it is, you basically have to rebuild the ship to get different docking results.

Great work! Hope I actually get the chance to see these in game sometime.

Shielding should be separated into 2 blocks. The Shield Generator blocks would determine the total shield power, and store shield energy points. They would also have a low power draw converting power into shield energy points to refill to maximum shield capacity. Getting shot would use up...

I would like to see the ability to save structures, so that I can import/export them to other servers, but players should have to pay the cost for the structure like they do for ships. Sector repair should be an admin tool.

So maybe it\'s time to revisit that thread on the scale of things in the game! I am wondering about the void system though, it\'s 17 systems cubed, is it hollow in the center?

You should put up some pics of the interior too.

I would like to see the ability to add your own custom uploaded block textures similar to the way you add a custom skin, so that you can have a more distinct looking ship while playing online. It would also be cool to have a collection of overlay textures that can be added to blocks already...

While improving the docking system, can you add more rotation options to the docking module? As it is now, all ships docked face the same direction if docked on the same plane of orientation. All ships docked on a planet face one direction. It would be better if we could choose which way the...

Wow, very cool ships. Must have taken a while to build.

But it\'s not very eyeballish other than the logo/target.

This has happened twice since I updated to v0.092745. I have encountered my own ship when I turn around and return to a sector shortly after flying through it. Both times I had flown a long distance, arrived at a destination, and on starting the return trip encountered my own ship. The clone...

Yes, but try jumping in a location where your head bumps the roof, and when that happens, keep the space bar pressed and move around. You won\'t fall back to the floor.
