Looking good! I'm pretty much on that macross boat as well right now as i make my 25th attempt to make a variable fighter..anyway, can't wait to see what you have in store in the futurte!

It's really hard to do something like this because people will try to exploit it. I would say that the core could give a bonus to some stats that decreases as block count increases, but then whats to stop people from docking extra cores between, say, a turret, for extra power or thrust, or what...

There are still a lot of bugs with the new features..so I wouldn't hold my breath

those beams look juicy. Apparently I have the issue as Sven though. I wonder if he has an AMD card too. Still...I like it a lot more than the old beams.

Instead of one or the other, why not let the user decide gravity they want. planets have variable gravity already

It doesn't. It sticks around until its timer hits 0 then vanishes Don't really get why rail rotators would be omitted. You'd just be able to use logic to get around it anyway.

Is there any way we can get the CIR to start up a thread much like the Game Balance Suggestions except focused on existing bugs in the game? I am aware that for some issues they require a bit of time to fix, but I think a thread like this would at least give Schine an idea of what it is the...

Not sure what you're getting at. The way it works now is clearly not intentional. Though if it doesn't get fixed by next build i will be sad ):

Not that im disagreeing with you, but have you seen how humongous those things need to be to get that kind of articulation? Even then, you are sacrificing a lot of functionality to get to that level, not to mention all the clutter you have to account for with all the additional cores at smaller...

Was trying to make something for SCIENCE and pretty much hit a wall since you can't link rails with rail turrets for more complex movement. Bumping this since I think it'd massively help in more creative turret design, among other things.

what does an elephant have to do with a gang of five year olds viciously murdering a man

it's more like a group of five year olds attacking a fully grown man. Sure he will be be able to take out quite a few but eventually the little rascals are gonna wear him down and then snap his shit up Anyone saying they can't beat cap ships just don't know how to build them properly, point blank.

Really hoping for something like this to come into place down the road. I dont know if its a non issue the bigger you build or something but at the scale I mess around with, using a lot of docked entities severely gimps whatever it is you're making. Which is no good if you need a ship with a...

isnt that more a bug than anything else?

I literally only built a big ship to carry all my other smaller ships

What do you mean by 'agility'? Because a 19m ship turns almost twice as fast as a 50M one. The entire reason you want them within a certain size is so you can carry more. So im not really sure why you think anyone would not employ them in swarms. yeah its not possible, otherwise every ship...

Zentradi are giants so its kind of weird to use them as a comparison to ships piloted by people slightly below 6m. If you are employing fighters I would assume you'd want them in large quantities, and good luck fitting multiple 150m long fighters on a carrier. Anyway, mass is a pretty...

I was beginning to think i was the only one who felt this way

it's pretty much the only thing that will keep you alive with smaller ships vs AI and their god aim

sounds like something that would completely negate the low turning speed of large ships and be as 'skill-less' a weapon as swarmers are
