Actually, something I hope you like better is if we are able to implement a system to "buy-in" or "build-in" onto a ships docks, you'd go into your ship systems, select an empty dock, and then designate which blueprint you would like to purchase/build and have it place automatically onto that...

There's several planned changes regarding the missile systems. Dealing with this clustering of swarm missile impact points is one of them.

These are already possible, we specifically held back on allowing them know so that we can implement other systems (capital ship system balancing) alongside them. Generally, you'll get a benefit, in exchange, you give up all or a portion of another functionality (this gives pro's/con's to each...

This is something we have discussed internally before. There is an obvious intrigue in it, but as some have pointed out, we will have to be careful to not spoil other game mechanics.

The slave systems are more exspensive to craft, why not allow them to function that way? Anyways, as mentioned, it is the intent to have them behave as I mentioned, if they are displaying wrong or performing wrong thats something that needs to be reported, as I can only set the config (and it is...

I've edited my post to clarify

1000ms is not 10 second reload, it is a 1 second reload. Weapon slaves contribute to a maximum of 100% to the primary, after that, they should continue to contribute *only* additional damage to the primary (their block count is included with the primary block count before the primary does the...

Generally speaking Comr4de, these are things I plan to get changed, within reason (there are some & maybe more, minor technical issues to work around, but nothing worth really noting.) Ship HP/Armor stats should help bring the non-shield survival of ships up (and make direction of attack...

The arguement can be pushed in the other direction, if you consider our current blocks on a smaller scale, to get those micro blocks. Why bother making the 1m^3 blocks then, when they can just be made from micro blocks. This might allow for more detail on a ship, but it would also force the...

"TLDR: blocks automatically grouping into larger blocks to save memory and subdividing when destroyed." - Pretty much how things work now The "lag" that this whole post is aimed at addressing is caused by high detail (lots of block faces) being simulated visually and physically in the game...

This is a topic we have put some thought into, so ill just post this here for you. Thanks for the input! http://starmadedock.net/threads/thrust-mechanics-explained.2696/

As in, after the GUI patch.

So, I'll be honest here, i skimmed through what looked like a bunch of off topic star trek stuff :P But Starlight here brought the conversation back around with what I also hope we can implement, a sort of weapon customization system, if not visually, then at least stat wise (but really, we all...

Docking orientation can get really complex, particularly with the unlimited tiers of docking that are now allowed. This has been something Schema has done preliminary work on before, and will hopefully be addressed in the upcoming patch he mentioned including the docks and rails if more...

I didn't realize there was an imbalance in the usage of the generic items. Thanks for bringing this up, I'll have a look at the recipe tree and see what needs to be done.

This is something that Schema has confirmed in the past, I haven't asked him what it entails (what challenges exist in coding it) but at least he has stated that it is something he wants and feels is possible. Making them at least buildable on (without converting them to stations) should be...

I understand my concept isn't the favorite of everyone, and does have its flaws, but at the same time the goal was to create a system with which you could design the performance *and looks* of your ship without being forced to fit a specific template (not all space ships have rockets on the...

I am aware of the issues with how shops and credits are currently set up in the default mode. I do appreciate threads discussing it, its just that there's only so much I can personally do with the configs. This is an issue that I will have to ask Schema's help with resolving in the code...

There's a 4/5 effeciency rate on power supply, as the beam itself is consuming some of the energy (regardless of what combo you use.) I didnt see if you had mentioned it, but you must also have power capacity on those reactors (and their carrier) to get the full potential regen (otherwise...

He already did, I'd bet it's one of the two issues I mentioned, although, people surprise me often enough :P
