      Quest creation using Lua

      Oh my goodness, I got so busy with everything, focusing on other scripting for my wrapper. I really understand lua at all, it makes absolutely no sense to me, but I was wondering if it were possible to simply display the output text of a webserver page, and then have the buttons request...

      Layered Building - like alternative dimensions

      Why would it double the ship size? If a layer is empty, there would be no data there, right?

      Layered Building - like alternative dimensions

      I'm not saying systems blocks should ever be intangible. But let's say a new game mechanic in the future is created, like an "overdrive shielding computer". To use it, you place it down on the ship somewhere, then switch to an effects layer. You can then place down "shield re-reinforcement...

      Layered Building - like alternative dimensions

      Alright, so this idea is to have non-physical blocks exist in an alternative build dimension, which can be used to add location specific effects and also for logic. What do I mean by this? Well, let's take logic for example. You could have a logic layer on ships, where only logic-connectable...

      Don't forget to BUFF THRUSTERS for Power 2.0!

      Don't forget to BUFF THRUSTERS for Power 2.0!

      For me, the problem lies in that StarMade doesn't have anything like ship tear and structural integrity. For example, if you place a really large thruster on a ship, it would need to be anchored very well, and the rest of the ship would need to be reinforced, otherwise it would tear the ship in...

      Open up the world database - Unleash the modders

      "Aliases" is just what you would call it to separate it from something like "functions". An alias is a simpler translation that doesn't process the input, but rather passes information to another command. It does NOT have to work exactly how bash aliases work, which is a merely a word...

      Minimade baby-sized server [WILL CLOSE ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2017]

      NaStral, we can run a server like this alongside LvD you know. Just with less RAM.

      Minimade baby-sized server [WILL CLOSE ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2017]

      Ah, I was being lazy and did not notice your post DIRECTLY above my reply. Sorry about that. lol. Yeah, I did a lookup on the address you provided there and noticed OVH as the provider (SoYouStart is the same company as OVH but offers slightly older servers for better prices). Good pick...

      Interested in a baby-sized server ?

      Give it a shot. Here's a VPS for $3.49 a month. I used to run a mini-starmade server on it which had a similar config option setup as you describe. (Expect frequent crashes though if anyone decides to make fleets - maybe turn off fleets.. and NPC factions - also set the RAM to be 1.4gb and...

      Server Texture Options

      Before anyone says anything, yes I know that custom textures are broken. So, on with the ideas. I have a few. IDEA 1: It's pretty simple really. Give a "Prefer server textures" setting. Put the setting just above the "Texture Pack" option, as pictured below in the settings. Right now...

      "/noclip"

      Oh yeah, that would also definitely be useful!

      "/noclip"

      So, this is an idea to allow a temporary status of "noclip" on an entity. This would allow either a ship or a player entity to become ghostlike, moving through other entities with no collissions. This would be useful for: 1. Admins to stop lag bombs in sectors where entities are crashing...

      Light vs Dark Server Redux

      New! Player Shops! We now have public docking at the Grand Crossroads (located at 20, 20, 20 and accessible via warp gate from Spawn). These are for player run shops ONLY. The currency to purchase things should be bronze, silver, or gold bars! Instructions on setting up your storefront...

      Recognized Display Module

      I like the idea of blocks that can span more than one space. Display modules would be a good usage of this, but it could be used for more things than just that. For example, if you put the right blocks down in the right configuration, it turns into a power reactor, with some of the blocks...

      A Scripter's Wishlist - For Future-Compatible Server Modding, creating Quests, Events, and More.

      Unfortunately, the SQL commands cannot be run via StarNet.jar. An error occurs, stating the user does not have permission to run the command. These commands can only be run manually in game as an admin (specified in the server.cfg) or on the console, both options not very usable by scripts...

      Light vs Dark Server Redux

      Due to some pretty horrible lag from a database issue we were having, we are currently running a temporary world with some experimental configs. We will likely update to the RC version soon, which runs a lot more stable with the issue, so this world will not last long. We've been working hard...

      Simple Suggestion - Have Copy/Paste blocks remember damage value

      Well, as the title says, this idea is to have the copy/paste block function remember a block's damaged value. So if you have decorative blocks that have damage to them, it will remember it when you paste. I use damaged blocks frequently to decorate, so this would be a big help. Thanks for...

      A Scripter's Wishlist - For Future-Compatible Server Modding, creating Quests, Events, and More.

      So, what do folks think about this? Think more modding in StarMade is needed?

      Log to syslog

      Yeah, you guys have the filtering set up with rsyslog, but I haven't had the time to figure out how to do it with syslog-ng yet, so I'm putting the project on hold for now. Or I could uninstall syslog-ng and switch to rsyslog. lol
