I have yet to see such a scenario, but if I try to imagine a fight between a capital ship and a swarm of fighters of a combined mass equal to the capital ship, I'm very certain the fighters have a very realistic chance of winning this battle. I'm against buffing weapons for smaller ships.

Ok, got another one. "The best kind of government is a dictatorship with the right guy at the top." I'm totally lost as to who said that. Maybe it was even just my dad trying to be a smartass.

Absolutely. The size of these templates is however limited. You can set the limit for your own singleplayer game, but on a multiplayer server, it might not be the same. But you could divide the copy&paste job into multiple templates.

I think I can adapt the logic panel to a 6x4 size if you want. I'll whip up something when I got home tonight. If you want to experiment for yourself a bit: You will need a flip flop controlling a rail speed controller. The rail speed controller has to slave the whole rail that the subway car...

Hmm. I'd rather have an option to hide certain blocks in buildmode, so a new player can download a blueprint from the content section and learn from there. In game, on a PVP server, it might make it easy to scout your opponents ships out with a permacloaker. So I would vote for armor/hull blocks...

And I thought your ships only looked amazing.

I agree with the general vibe in this thread, but wanted to give some examples: I'm currently building a medium sized ship to go around, explore, prospect for asteroids and the like. It should be able to handle everything Isanth-sized and smaller. Thats why I'm going for a lot of shield...

I like power caps giving that much power, and power generation being relatively weak. It means people have to care about their energy consumption and might not sustain the full range of their systems for the fight, and rather have to manage their energy reserves. I totally agree with you though...

Man I love that style. The Nidhoggr really shows that you have perfected it by now. I take a lot of inspiration from your ships. When Raiben said "don't build blocky ships, you are already building with blocks" I though to myself: "Man, have you seen NuclearFuns ships?"

If I get attacked by another ship, which is better than mine in every regard except speed, why shouldn't I be able to outrun it?

Seems to me like B built a bad ship. Shouldn't the player building the better ship win? If D has bad reaction time, then he is probably f'ed because there will be Cannon/Cannon/Stop effect all over him. Except the C guys built a shitty fleet. I wish there was a variable speed and not a hard...

The Thrasher is really nice! It looks very pirate-y and the warhead is a nice addition. Now we only need some kamikaze/torpedo AI...

This is pretty much a prerequisite for posting a thread in the suggestion forum. Why would anybody post a thread here without actually liking the change that they propose? That is just your personal opinion. I think I understood him just fine. On topic, I think it wouldn't hurt to have some...

Yep

I feel like we should have a sticky regarding asteroids/economy in general. We have a thread like this one every week, with the same questions getting asked and mostly not answered, and the answer to most of these questions is "It's an alpha" anyways.

Needs moar green! By the way: I achieved this look with a yellow light in the middle, a ring of green lights at the outer edge, and ice blocks (not crystals) on top.

You can achieve some really nice effects if you hide your lights: (HIDE YO KIDS, HIDE YO LIGHTS)

This can also horribly backfire: there was a similar vote on Dota 2 content. The players could vote on a hero which would get remodelled. But instead of voting for hero models which actually looked bad, people apparently just voted for a hero they thought was cool, or maybe their favourite hero...

Press the "Switch to docked entity" button, which is right next to the "Create docking" button Select a dockable block or a rail docker (similar to how you select a block for the "Create docking" feature) If that block has an entity attached, you get put into it (in build mode). If not, you get...
