Is this a problem with ships in general during normal combat? I'm not on any servers, but I'd highly doubt someone would throw money away just to survive a bit longer. But as I said, haven't been on servers much, so I wouldn't fully know.

I'm saying yes, but with limitations. Maybe ship shops would drop shields when bought from or sold to, but would also allow the owner to make the shop public, faction, or private. Like a transporter. This would make shopping from stations more safe, but quick trades would also be easily accessible.

Welcome to the new Dagram Shipyards Industries! I've actually got the time -and skill- to post here more often. There's a few ships I've already finished that I'll be uploading this week, but for starters I've got a template pack for building doomcubes starter ships ready to go!

The Sybox TypeI MkI: All Sybox types have a different purpose. Type0 has spaces for customization, Type1 focuses on implementing basic systems, TypeII includes and supports jump-drive and quick acceleration, TypeIII can perma-jam and can cloak for a few minutes at a time with almost instant...

I find it nice to be able to jump so high. Especially when stuck in a holes and such. You can't place blocks too far away from yourself, so jumping high helps you reach higher to place steps for getting out. You can just let-go of the jump key sooner, as painful as it (actually) sounds. Having...

+1 AI ships shouldn't be much of a problem with this change, either. As better maneuvering skills are planned for them, they won't need the firing arcs to properly hit a target. Plus cannons with firing arcs are something less than fiction.

Won't be un-seeing this for a while. T-T

My, this is inspiring! Could you combine the elevator with the up/down counter for a system where you can type in a floor or use buttons to cycle?

Very useful to know. Seems to be some more factors though? Tested the logic on a ship with max thrust, everything was fine. Added a bunch of stuff (hull and whatnot) and still had max thrust but the sensors would only send a signal at higher thrust values than they should've. Could acceleration...

Annnd I was right! Check it out: I can say -first-handedly- that it works as a great desktop background. =)

Now we've got a new, pretty sun bloom to work with. Yay! Could probably do with some cropping, but eh. It works. =P

1. A tablet you could slap on walls, floors, etc like a light bar. Could be a LOD model for the empty blueprint block that currently only has a placeholder texture. 2. A classic-loudspeaker-shaped speaker. Good for decorating large factory rooms and-the-like by mounting on the walls.

Great job on the new textures, kupu ! Decorative blocks definitely fit together a lot better now, along with a more consistent theme to everything. Factory enhancers seem to be bugging me a bit, too. The pistons seem a little blurred or something? Can't quite put my finger on it, but my brain...

We call this a buttfloat. Kinda like the backfloat but half as casual.

You can have the landing gear be the main ship and have the body move up instead. Not good for flying in general, but if you really need working landing gear, it'll do.

alterintel Thanks so much! ^-^

Very ingenious, this. Thanks for the tip! ^-^

I like this, for sure. Maybe enemies shooting a build drone/cam would shut the drone down until the ship/station is rebooted? Also, being able to shoot the build drone would prevent the issue of someone in build mode simply replacing blocks as a boarding party breaks them, as the party could...

Well... Thadius Faran already did for starters. But to tag people just type @NAME

Some more dark/light versions of existing colours would be nice (think dark grey hull) but maybe a little more drastic than the OP's example. Colours need to have enough contrast to actually be worth the inventory space IMO.
