      Some Final Words on the Power Thread

      Ideally you don't have to teach someone to play your game, but if you want to do something new and interesting sometimes its not known what the best way to teach them it. Right now starmade isn't the greatest at it but its a lot better with the new videos. There could be a lot of ways to show...

      Question; WHEN are you going to do this power change?

      More information known. Lessons already learned. Late alpha would/could signify learning what you could from earlier play tests. Ideally you do want fail early/fail often as silicon valley likes to put it. That's what alpha is for.

      Blueprint is missing lots of blocks after chunk32 conversion

      As a note for others that might read this later. Purely for information. Starmade was originally chunk16 meaning 16x16x16 chunks, and the new current systems is chunk32

      Blueprint is missing lots of blocks after chunk32 conversion

      You may want to try saving a back up copy of the blueprint and opening it first in v0.199.132, that was the change to chunk 32. Which is where you would see errors like that.

      Hints to what the next update is?

      What trading bugs did you see? They get tagged a lot, and in doing so it starts to mean less.

      New proposal commentary and possible solution

      I think someone in the thread pointed out that the maximum potential is likely closer to an octahedral shape. One that maximizes the power generation vs armor, and systems space. I think this is one of the reasons people think that. The way power is currently setup it also encourages...

      Build System Revamp, Including Quality Tiers

      The best example I've seen in of a tier system in a long term, survival game (which is starmade multiplayer) has been ark. It doesn't work and it isn't really fun. Usually once someone has ascended to the level of above someone else others no longer have a chance. This type of end-all-be-all...

      Fix the bugs (With poll)

      The best way to help, is start a thread on the support channel or create a bug report. The better the bug report the faster we can repro and faster schine can confirm and fix. Threads complaining about bugs themselves aren't useful by themselves. Rough steps to reproduce and logs are amazing. I...

      Some Final Words on the Power Thread

      Oh poor example, I was thinking DPS. 10dps per module. So for 10 blocks it's 10 modules then.

      Some Final Words on the Power Thread

      Its not just weapons, but any system. More like giving you choices on how to defend yourself, limit the damage you take, maximize destruction of the enemy, also getting to the cargo of a ship, or capturing a ship? I'm not sure any of those nuances are possible with the current combat system.

      That's just part of designing your weapon though isn't it?

      Some Final Words on the Power Thread

      Perhaps, but assuming 1hp a block it takes one cannon module in the current game to destroy 10 blocks. You could swap to armor but then the speed/thrust decrease comes into play and it would depend on the heat box for how much filler you'd want. The way I'd imagine my idea system is one with...

      Some Final Words on the Power Thread

      #1 #2 Both of these are really good points. For #1 Is it not stronger just because you don't know where the systems are? Would that change if you could identify which ones and where they are? For #2 Given the change above. Would the player be given more choices on what to disable, if they...
