DIAGNOSTIC TOOL -- Starmade System Checker It is in the sticky thread list of the Support Forum. It did find Java a 64bit version even. but it was an old version of Java 6 or lower. StarMade does not run on Java 6 or below. Which version if any of Java is installed on this Computer: output...

Java 6 used to update itself by adding new versions to the existing Java installation. It did not delete the version of Java that was being updated. This was a horrible security oversight. Since now people could get hacked true these previous Java installations. Many fell victim to ransom...

Nothing is ever simple in StarMade. There is some logic behind the five custom folders but as a solution it is not very elegant. The custom folders only contain an extremely short basic how to on how to get stuff done. The folders are there to provide a way to add new features and config...

This quote of mine: Is about the default stations of the game. So the Trading Guild, Pirates and Derelict stations. To change them all you need to do is swap Blueprints and start a new map. To spawn new NPC factions on a map you need to edit a few files first. You already did the first part...

I completely looked over that like a dozen times. My brain only saw the first box with copy brush, copy selection, paste, load and save. The bit below SEARCH did not register. Running StarMade at 1280x800 also does not help. Thanks a lot.

I have “acquired” yeah I stole it a rather nice ship and I like to make some adjustments to it. In the old build interface I used to be able to quickly replace or remove blocks from a ship without removing the other blocks that make up the ship. So let say I want to remove all Power Reactors...

Thank you for clearing up the root cause of your problem. That way other people who run into the same issue may find a use in your post. The modem/router setting at fault could have been this one: Prevent ping from WAN Prevent ping from LAN You then either tick or untick the box depending on...

As a temporary way to do the above. If you use the command: sector_chmod x y z + protected This prevents weapon damage to everything in that sector but you then can still salvage a station. To also prevent this. Give the Station, Ship in the sector to the Trading Guild faction 1. Not to be...

It looks lovely but please be aware that it also has to work on servers and computers that may not have the strongest possible CPU. Since these are the default stations for the game. "users can offcourse always change them but a lot are unaware of this" I would suggest that you remove four...

The game has model data in this location: Your StarMade folder\data\models\ There are then five sub folders. The character folder even has something that looks like what the OP requested called a Hoppy. Though I think it was intended to be a creature for the desert planet. Some small guide...

Your map is probably from before the NPC update. Existing maps do not have there universe upgraded with the NPC. If you start a new map then it will get the NPC provided you turn the option to spawn them on. You can transfer sectors from your existing map to your new map just make sure you use...

The correct GameConfig.xml file is located in the root StarMade folder. Your server.cfg and settings.cfg are also located there. Then there is the data\config folder. Here you find a lot of .xml files. Including GameConfigDefault.xml that is just a backup copy with the default settings you do...

I did not even notice we had such a section. The tricky thing is everything effects everything else. So i could upload various files with changed settings. But say i swap out a pirate then i would also have to add a link to download that pirate etc etc. If you can download a config then you...

A few of these things you can yourself. The default StarMade experience is very rough. But most server admins still insist on running the game as is. Without making any change to the default config. "most are clueless how to change stuff" Schine also has also been very sloppy in dealing with...

Good suggestion. The ships Catalog Manager under Options and Tools used to list ships Credit price to. Now it only shows a ships Mass. Would be nice if it again could also show credits. For instance when you need your best sub 5 million credits ship for a particular mod...

This has come about when they switched to a persistent AI universe. The original Pirates and Trade Guild would spawn out of the blue. Fly on a strait line across a few sectors to a target. Then fly back and despawn. The Pirates would spawn to engage a human player. Or a wave would spawn to...

I am going to be sarcastic here but it really just boils down to what you wrote down there. It are the bugs. We HAD many people who enjoyed playing StarMade. Basicly in the same form that you see the game in today. An empty universe with some blocks and that is it. The game has an almost...

The server AI aim setting has a lot to do with it. That effects Anti Missile Defense to. The default StarMade setting is basicly aim to miss.

The click YES to undock all ships from a home base option. Do not give unknown people access to build blocks. This a major loophole in multi player factions security. Even though the option it self is often very handy. Along with close all doors, etc I use the option to turn off the turrets AI...
