      That works. Also, transmitting the text of the display via wireless could be cool. Just like a TV (Tell-Lie-Vision). Then you can broadcast to the whole base.

      Read by Council Gizmo & Grouping, the tools that starmade desperately needs right now.

      This is a good idea. However, If I had to choose I would like Schine to improve the template Copy/Paste system as this is a logical starting point. Including both would be ideal.

      Multiple Invincible Stations

      If Credits and Faction-points are both functioning as currency will there ever be a way to exchange one for the other?

      Advice on a station?

      I really like the overall shape and the scale of the greeblies. If it needs anything it is a secondary accent color. The red/orange is anchoring your palette so find a color that contrasts/compliments and splash it on

      Opinions On Starmades Combat

      So like a Wing Commander bonus? I would be OK with that as long as they were 'human'/NPC and not Bobby AI. I think the squadron leader should be in the same size-range as the red-shirts as well.

      CIR - Postponing next term

      (my 2-cents worth) I needed my trusty drama-mine detector to get past those last few meters. ;) I have observed a low ebb of feedback over the past year of my time in the forums. Yes there could have been more tags on posts etc and I have certainly appreciated @HolyCookie's 'tag-sale' (but...

      Block Based AI Programming

      This sounds like a great way to incorporate CyberSpace into SM. A non-physical reality that is, in this case, housed by a single physical block: AI programming block (or whatever). Within this virtual area you can lay out your block-based programming scheme where the blocks are holographic...

      Automated cargo system/standard pod tips/ideas

      Yes!. For the tenth time yes....please for the love of.....can we save our damn pull-filters so we don't have to keep repeating the same tedious procedures over and over again, even though we did them yesterday, and last week, and a month ago and....:mad:(pant, pant------breathe) :(.

      The fix for broken copy/paste: add a base point!

      I think I get it now. (This is tricky to visualize so thanks for the diagrams) I believe that Jojomo and I are describing an identical functionality with one main difference. My idea uses two actual blocks to help make visualizing the relationship easier. Jojomo has a system that uses no...

      Multiple Invincible Stations

      Sure, but I would prefer that the admin have tools to automate this to save them the tedium. I think they usually like to play the game too. Exactly...tools. Here is a good debate; how long does a player need to be inactive before it is not rude to dump their stuff? I'm thinking after a...

      Automated cargo system/standard pod tips/ideas

      I haven't messed around with any auto-mining tech yet but this is a great idea to get out there. I guess the first place to start is getting some loose standards that people can use to experiment with. I would suggest you go for a central rail (lengthwise/Odd-symmetry) standard width and...

      Multiple Invincible Stations

      A number of newcomers on my old server up and bailed the second they saw the galaxy map. It was rainbow-colored and looked so picked over that a bunch of newbies though there was no room for them so they never even explored. This is unfortunate and unnecessary. The actual galaxy was mostly empty...

      New Category for the Dock

      I know many people have suggested giving Turrets their own category in CC and I agree. Another category that I think deserves a place is Robotic. It would include: Mechs, Land-vehicles, Animatronics, Replicants, Robo-Tech, Anthropomorphic ships, Critter-builds, Automatons, Droids & Transformers.

      Logic Beam Emitters

      I'm all for making things logic-triggered. If it does not make something OP get a link on it. I want to trigger my med-cabinet to launch pill bottles on logic and where is my USB-ready Yhole? Seriously, there are a ton of cool, subtle things you could link-for-effect using logic. Examples...

      How much time do you need to build ships below 100m?

      In the 100 meter range I would spend two or three days. Most of the work would be done in one day, but I spend a lot of time ruminating and editing the basic build so that it has some style. General advice on building: -"Time isn't holding us, time isn't after us...time is a pony ride." David...
