      Interdiction - No escape!

      I'll voice my concerns over any game suggestion that could ruin the game play for others. Like I've said before, I don't have a problem with PVP, it's fine; but an already existing game mechanic that allows players to escape combat and use escape pods should not be broken because some rather...

      Interdiction - No escape!

      The problem I have with this whole jump drive jamming system is someone in a 1,000 block ship should be able to jump away from a 100,000 block ship without being warp jammed at all. If players want to fight in open space, fine-- but players should always have the option to avoid a fight if they...

      Read by Schine Change Warp System and Interdiction Ideas

      Let me break this down for you: You want the game to change because you don't like warp drives because they make you upset because players can escape you. This makes you upset, so you want the mechanics to change to suit the playing style you're used to in EVE Online. If you like that sort of...

      Well, lets say you log off. When you disconnect you're no longer in the ship's core. You are also no longer attached to your ship. This means, with an AI module, your ship could run away and go off fighting pirates or other players, while you're left floating in the last place the game thought...

      Ice crystals can be manufactured from 10 ice blocks. I'd prefer to see sheets. We could add a "rough" variety that doesn't have these edges.

      Implemented Move the server messages away from the advanced build corner

      A better way to handle this would be for server messages to pop up in the chat area. Most games deal with events and server messages in this way. Now, having the shutdown message appear at the top of the screen with a countdown is great the way it is.

      Keeping the new players playing

      The biggest problem here is that astronaut flight controls and ship flight controls are different. Want to rotate? Oops, you just hit the key to a ship. It's also not visually apparent if you're under the effect of gravity or not. If your arms came up in the few window and showed the astronaut...

      PVP is fine, My argument is, if a player wishes to avoid PvP, then they should have the option by using their warp drives. However, if they choose to be involved in fleet combat, then warp jammers have their place to keep the battle field level. Your proposal would prevent players from...

      This is a great idea... Except.... you'll be separated from your ship, even if you're inside when you log off. See: http://starmadedock.net/threads/restore-astronaut-gravity-and-relative-position-to-entered-entity-on-exit.8064/#post-125382 I personally would love to see more blocks that can be...

      Of course you can use it, on your own station. Just not on your own ship. If you want to PvP, go for it. But if they choose to warp away from a lone wolf, like you, then they should. Hence this prevents the lone 12-y/o brat from harassing new players that choose not to engage in combat until...

      That's the problem, they would get stuck, blocking anyone else from entering. Ships "snap" onto rails. if a ship was shaped with a large nose and a narrow body, then it would get stuck and not be able to back out again (unless it warp jumped) True, however, if this module already prevents...

      I don't see a problem with the current system. If you build your ship with fast warping in mind, then it's not an issue. A specialized warp ship can charge a warp drive system in about 4 seconds. Warping from one end of the galaxy to another should take a long time and be hard. It gives players...

      Interdiction - No escape!

      It makes perfect sense. You have a ship that's devoting all of it's energy to preventing warp jumps. I can see a ship like this having a warp-like effect covering it's hull. It would essentially be between warping and not warping. Such a ship shouldn't be able to interact with the rest of the...

      Interdiction - No escape!

      If you're jamming, then the ship should become fully dedicated to that task and unable to move, shoot or anything else besides sit there and jam a sector. That would force those that wish to use a jammer to have a large fleet to protect it. In the meantime, you'll just have to protect that fancy...

      Erm.. Well if warp jamming also means that the jamming ships shields drop to zero... that'll work.

      Interdiction - No escape!

      I'm not completely against warp jamming. I'm against mobile warp jamming. If you want to lock down the sector around your base and make the only way to warp in and out is to use the warp gates, then fine-- but ships should not be able to do this. Just like ships currently can't place certain...

      TNT cannons in minecraft take some time to build, You're better off just dumping tons of TNT around a structure, or under it. Besides, most minecraft servers disable TNT and fires. You're comparing apples and oranges here. You've proposed a new game mechanic that breaks an existing one, and...

      Interdiction - No escape!

      I get that you want to be able to bash other players and prevent them from escaping. Fine. The whole point of a jump drive is so that you can warp to other sectors AND escape. Warp jamming would make escape pods pointless to put on a ship, because the ability for them to warp as well would be...

      Interdiction - No escape!

      Boarding should be dangerous. If you board a ship and you're grappled to it, then it decides to warp, well then, you deserve to be taken for a ride. If you want to prevent a ship from warping, then destroy the warp computers. StarMade is not EVE online There are things that work in Eve that...

      That would work too, and then some of these multiplayer servers that currently don't allow single-player factions would have to stuff it :P
