      CLOSED* CONTEST: Default Stations Submission

      Would team Schema have any objections to using hardened hull on just one section of a station? I realize Hardened hull is pricy, and therefore a treasure in itself, but for the abandoned neutral station I'm working on, I'd like to do just the power plant hull in hardened hull, gives it that...

      Best video capture program?

      Sadly, I'm painfully new at this as well. That's actually why I'm in here too. I've only recently really been doing much in the way of recording, In fact I'm not entirely sure I'm using the right term, as I've sen these also referred to as "endec"s, but basically: Codec...

      Best video capture program?

      I'm curious about this as well. Normally, MSI Afterburner is My main vid capture program. That app along with the x264vfw codec is freaking epic. ....Unfortunately, it doesn't jell with java very well. I've read that You can get it to work with 32 bit java, but on the 64 bit stuff I'm on, it's...

      Default thruster mechanic (poll)

      whoops, hit the wrong button... Editing........ I want to vote on this one, but I can't. Not yet. With everything else (weapons, shields, support, Etc) In such a heavy state of flux or downright malfunction, and seeing how the way one item works will effect everything else on a well designed...

      StarMade 0.155 (Fixes and Optimization)

      Thanks, I appreciate the response. Although I prefer this linear system more (big engine = big speed!), for the time being I'm going to stay on box_dim_multi. Everything I've got is running on that, and the weapon system is still in a heavy state of flux, so why rock the boat any more then...

      StarMade 0.155 (Fixes and Optimization)

      This is some good, goooooooooood shit right here. .... Someone has been reading My rants. You just made beam weapons awesome and viable! I see they have partial-convergence now, too. They seem to converge at the horizontal level, in line with the crosshair, but do not align on the vertical...

      StarMade 0.152 (fixes and custom sector size)

      Did anyone read the part in My first post about "Forum members missing the point and devs ignoring it"? Yeah. I'm some kind of Nostradamus. Most of You have picked just one item in My post, and only touching on that. My post wasn't about "Ermagerd the nerw werpons are terable!", it was to point...

      StarMade 0.152 (fixes and custom sector size)

      Mered4: I addressed this in My rant. I am not using the old placeholder system as a "yardstick" to measure against. As I said, I feel the system is flawed purely on it's own merit. It is bloated, needlessly complex, and is trying waaaaaay to hard. Yes, I sighted difficulty with using it. I've...

      StarMade 0.152 (fixes and custom sector size)

      Strange You're right, Small mass craft like fighters are pretty much shunned here. I mentioned fighters a lot because: A: I prefer to start testing small, and work up. Start on the ground level, if You will. B: The smaller the mass, the more dependent it becomes on how well the rules of the...

      WARNING: THE FOLLOWING POST IS NEGATIVE AS HELL. IT WILL LIKELY BECOME THE SINGLE MOST UNIVERSALLY HATED THING TO EVER BE POSTED HERE. I AM EFFECTIVELY COMMITTING FORUM SUICIDE BY POSTING IT. While Blackeyez could certainly handle Himself in a more polite manner, I pretty much agree with Him...

      Bug Light effects, stars not viewable through plex glass.

      Copy of image text for those who use a translator for English: 1: Pointed right at local star, looking through cockpit block behind glass.... Can't see shit, captain. 2: Exact same position, viewing from build mode. OH HAI STAR. 3: Facing away from star, glass fogs up, even though there are...

      StarMade 0.15 is out

      Since this update came out, the light emitted from plex beacons is black now. My ship's engines now generate shadows instead of brilliant plumes of light..... Oh, and now everything seems to take twice as long to load in as well. I've got a few reservations about the new weapon system, but...

      Plex Lights and Lighting Intensity

      I had to disable shadows shortly after they came out because of this. Too few lights, and you can't see anything. Too many lights, now everything is washed out. Less intensity but with a wider range would be real nice. That, and tweek the light reflectivity of certain blocks. I can't really use...

      option for guild-useable ships

      I suppose You've got a point, but personally, I'd be fine with the extra complexity. But You know what? Both ideas could work at the same time. How about this: By default, the game does exactly as You say. Without player interaction it assigns a global rarity to a ship based on it's potency, so...

      option for guild-useable ships

      I'm totally on board with this. I've been wanting more in-depth control of the AI factions for a while. The (truly awful) background fluff I've come up with for all the ships I've made in SP are based around different governing bodies using different ships, just like real life. I'd love to be...

      Muting players

      Tomino, if that's how you run Your server, then I guarantee You that the only reason you still have any players left is not because it's a good server, but because Your players are sticking around because of the Mushroom Fleet name and notoriety. You spew videos near-daily, who's only saving...

      Muting players

      This! This! Oh Glob this! I was going to pretty much make this list, but it would seem War dog Has His shit straight. Tomino: Get out of Your ivory server admin tower and try looking at things from a player perspective. When I'm playing online, I'm cool with some off-beat chat banter (And also...

      Muting players

      +1 I'd like an ignore players function as well. Obviously, a player won't be able to ignore an admin, but for player-to-player level global chat this is a must. Hell, I'd go so far as to put a range limit on global chat, so someone can't talk to / annoy You unless they were near you. something...
