Nice architecture :) Shame there are currently no planets big enough to stand it on!

"should be"? Surely that would be false advertising :eek: Oh well, it worked for No Man's Sky :whistle:

It's easier for someone who's never heard of this game to appreciate a pretty looking ship than to appreciate the functionality of a highly complex logic system from a static picture. I agree there should be pictures of thing other than spaceships though. Ideally we need to see action shots of...

I know I'm a bit late to the party but I would also prefer sorting by Player/Faction ideally. Failing that, the length order does make it easier to spot particular ships and appreciate the comparative sizes more. Any kind of sorting is better than random in my opinion :)

I hope that Dragon breathes orange heat-seeking missiles :)

I think the restriction here is not one of ship design but of AI limitations. The NPCs are currently not versatile enough to be performing passenger pick-up or convoy look-out roles. Hell, they only learned how to avoid collisions with static objects along trade routes a couple of weeks ago...

Taken out of context, that statement sounds like you're challenging whether there can be such a thing ;)

Very nice. reminds me of Sci-Fi novel cover artwork :)

Looks good from that angle. What's it look like from the back?

These are great! So much detail for such small builds :)

You're welcome :)

It's number 6 suggestion on HERE, isn't it? :^D

I think people are talking at cross purposes. Of course Fighters are effective. The question is, in what circumstances? You could argue a knife is no use against a gun. However, in a fight between 7 knife wielding maniacs vs 1 gunman with only 6 bullets, who's going to be left standing...

The devs have thought of this and it is not easy to implement. Please check Suggestion #38 under the Frequent Suggestions Megathread.

I disagree that using large numbers of small units to take down 1 bigger one is a waste of resource. It's usually far more economically viable to manufacture lots of cheap units than 1 big one. They can also be replaced much quicker. There's a reason why after WWII most Navies stopped producing...

Speed may not be of much use in a one-on-one duel (AI "limitations" aside), but in a battle it allows you to choose which target you want to engage and when, while denying your enemy the same luxury. This kind of option can be invaluable to a small force needing to engage a larger one.

You mean it's a limit on the number of different types of block the game can render at once? Not a limit of how many different blocks are available in total?

Yeah, that would be a good start. I was hoping for some more "refined" shapes too, kinda like these.

Since most people were using them for engine effects, the new more uniform look makes sense to me. I would ideally like to see a new LoD object added which is actually shaped like a crystal.
