Jamming a home base wouldn't really help that much anyway since home base sectors are shown in the faction list. I am mainly concerned about secondary bases that aren't invincible and less well defended.

Once we have fleet commands, hiring mercs would be great, as you could add them to your fleet for a single battle, without needing to invest in an entire fleet of ships. If they had their own custom ships, that would be even cooler. Of course they could also be hired to defend an area for a...

Yeah, I don't really want a base that goes totally invisible, unless it was just for a limited time, but being able to mask the radar signature would be nice.

Well, I play mainly single player, so a decent NPC economy would be nice, but I see your point in multiplayer.

Ah the planet FAGASSIOUS, tis a silly place.

I haven't tried it but does the radar jammer or cloaking device work on a station? I would love to have a secret base that could "disappear".

The universe is coming along nicely, but there is still a ton of stuff that could be added and exploited such as nebula or dense asteroid fields where you could hide a base, gas giants, etc. We really need a compelling reason to explore deep space, I am anxiously awaiting the AI critters for...

A creative or "drafting" mode would be great. Basically you can design an entire ship using unlimited blocks since you are just designing your ship. But for it to be a "real" ship it needs to be built with real materials from in game, or paid for with credits, including "construction" costs...

Thanks for the responses. The reason I asked was most the other value chains that I have used such as raw materials -> hull -> standard armor -> advanced armor only add maybe 10% value to the produced goods. Whereas mineral -> carved mineral adds like 1500% value to the produced goods. That's...

I harvested a Sugil asteroid and turned the Sugil into capsules. For each Sugil block I received 30 Sugil capsules from the capsule refinery. I then turned those 30 capsules into a Carved Sugil block. I then sold the carved Sugil for 90 credits each. Basically I turned a 3 credit Sugil block...

I really love missiles, but I do think they could use a little tweaking. Like the larger the missile, the lower the turn rate. Also requiring refillable missile racks might help balance. In know these have been suggested before.

Yes, getting near a real black hole would be a terrible idea, unless you like being squashed flat. However there is a theory that going near certain black holes will warp spacetime kind of like a wormhole. But I wouldn't want to try it to find out.

We can already filter out orbits, shops, stations etc on the map. I would think a filter box for stars would be pretty simple to add. My guess is it will probably be added in a near future update.

What if both options were available, but buying with credits would cost a lot more than the equivalent cost of the blocks, say a 50% markup to cover the cost of the trading guild "gathering" the needed resources. IRL You can save money building a house yourself by gathering the materials and...

That's good Crimson-Artist, more elegant than mine.

I assume you mean a momentary switch, this is the closest I have been able to make, each time you press the activation switch it will output a momentary "ONE"

From what I have observed, once a ship has initiated a jump there is nothing to stop them from completing the jump. This interdiction system might help balance this out. Also it seems like once a jump drive has been charged nothing can prevent it from being used. This allows ship builders to...

My sector size is set to 5000, but if I make the sectors bigger, the orbits just get bigger and still overlap between systems. The sectors need to be made bigger and the planetary orbits smaller. IRL the distance from our sun to the nearest star is like 500 times the diameter of our solar...

The star systems need more space between them. I have two systems where the outer orbits on one system overlap with the orbits in another system. It is hard to tell where one system ends and another starts.

The other day I was working around my station when an enemy vessel jumped right into the immediate area around my base and killed me before I could get inside my station. I would like to have a block that could be added to a station or ship that suppressed the ability to jump. That way if...
