      Some Ramblings About Balance (poll)

      I agree that is probably more realistic (as far as FTL goes :p ), but it is a game, and small ships need advantages. (as they will basically always lose a battle with a larger one) On AI accuracy, here's an idea: AI shoots at current position of target, with high accuracy. A moving capital will...

      StarMade science—Diving into game mechanics

      With bigger sectors you could go raid the fridge without being so worried about crashing on your long trips.

      Some Ramblings About Balance (poll)

      I'm making this thread with the goal of discussing longer term balance plans for Starmade, particularly the small ship vs large ship issue, linear vs logarithmic scaling (and which systems should use each). Linear scaling would be nice, but Starmade would become a race to build the biggest ship...

      Bigger Bullets: The quest for a more epic StarMade

      I think the projectiles should look like the star citizen ones, they are great!

      An Apology

      If anything that flying has said in this thread is accurate, the sender does see when emails are marked as spam. That would be a pretty serious breach if user's trust IMO. What email service are you using?

      set A.I faction ships, possible work around

      I thought that AI blueprint spawning was controlled by the enemyusable checkbox, but it depends on how it has been implemented.

      A Mod that changes beam colors.

      I would much prefer to see different colors based on the combination you are using. I.e. Laser = green, Laser + Cannon = red, Laser + laser = yellow, laser + missile = blue, laser + pulsator = orange.

      Bandwidth usage

      An average game (fps for instance) basically needs to receive player x is at 123, 2, 87, facing at angle 43, angle of elevation -11, and is holding gun x. Starmade needs to receive: Planet is here, planet is made of (info describing what all the blocks are). Station is here, planet is made of...

      JVM Crash when running Starmade?

      One of the best posts I've seen describing a problem, and it looks like you've tried a fair bit of stuff. Try right clicking on Starmade starter and pressing run as administrator. Check the programs list under control panel for multiple installs of java. If you have only tried singleplayer so...

      StarMade Help Center

      For the help section, I think there should be a few large buttons with common problems written on them, and then a structured system which draws information out, and takes the user to a list of recommended solutions. So the user goes to starmade help, sees a big button that says, "I can't play...

      station catalogue and download

      Space stations are in a fixed position in a sector, so buying one would be a bit more complicated than buying a ship. What if you are right on a sector border when you press buy? Your space station might end up half in one sector and half in another, which tends to cause trouble. People could...

      Ship Parts Vanishing

      The current build is bugged, blocks, segments and sometimes ships are vanishing. I'm not building anything significant for the moment, it is just too painful to repeatedly redo parts.

      Name that Mineral!

      How about some realistic names, actual metals and crystals: Ores (Colour is for the metal oxides, which is usually what is mined anyway) White - Aluminium Black - Chromite Purple - Not a lot, maybe a different color is better? Blue - Copper Sulphate Green - Nickel Yellow - Uranium Orange -...

      Some safety from pirates in spawn area

      I think the difficulty setting is hard by default, so that is probably why you are having trouble. Look for sector_chmod here: http://star-made.org/content/admin-commands to see how you can make a sector safe.

      Corners and Wedges react to "r"

      It is a feature, but pressing R can also expose errors in an entity\'s file. http://star-made.org/content/magic-blocks-bug-includes-relevant-gifs

      Bug: Shops don't restock anymore, and no new blocks v0.14

      Recipes say they only do grey hull block + green paint --> green hull block for example, but they will work with yellow hull wedge + green paint --> green wedge too.

      Magic Blocks (bug) Includes relevant gifs

      Finally found an image site which will host gif sized things, this illustrates my point much better: Definitely not rotating.
