I don't play on servers (yet). There shouldn't be a problem with a call function except maybe on the middle floor. I think I have a general idea of how to check which floor it's on though.

I could but I'd rather not as it would compromise the seamless look of the lift.

I'm going to ask this question here since it's somewhat related and I'd rather not make another thread. I want to make a 3-floor elevator, but with 1 input button for the elevator itself that cycles between floor 1-2-3-2-1... with each button press as well as a callback function for each floor...

When you guys convene on the core movement issue, please consider the idea of having an in-game have a function to just move the ship around the core instead of actually moving the core. An out of game editor being the only way to do core movement doesn't really seem like an elegant solution.

I love how it totally just bugs out crossing the plate border and down slopes. A+ for creativity that's for sure!

I'd much rather have it be dependent on the output module's face and only the output module's face. That way it's very easy to change, you can have your other modules in other directions for aesthetic purposes, and the computer can be place in whatever direction. Mufti-directional firing sounds...

Seconding OP's suggestion. I've been asking for slabs for ages now. Rails give even more reason for them to exist because of clearance problems with full blocks. a 1/2m and/or 1/4m would add a lot to building aesthetics and mechanics.

Not the answer you want to hear, but you can adjust the filter in the navigation pane. Unfortunately this disables view of ALL ship entities since rails they basically are ship entities. Hopefully in the future there will be a way to differentiate but for now we're kind of screwed.

How have the maintainers of OpenGL not fixed such a bug is what I want to know. It is really sad because at certain angels blocks with transparency can't be seen behind other blocks with transparency as well, not just lasers and cannons.

I'd guess the reason would be consistency for actual implementation. Except for "Epic Huge Planet" which won't happen because of the "seamless" philosophy the game's development follows. Even a transition is a loading screen, just dressed up in a way. I think Valiant70's planets would be amazing...

Because NASA ships aren't made for combat. I guess because NASA ships don't have canons means we don't need them either. Oh wait— Yes it is. Rolling to strafe is adding an otherwise superfluous action to do something we can already do by just pressing a single key. Go play an actual space sim...

That's air combat, it's literally planetside and not in a zero-G environment. Play a game like Space Rogue or Frontier: Elite II that adhere to space physics. That's how Star Made is as well. Eventually we'll get a system with adjustable percentages for each direction and you'll have to choose...

This was from the election thread, a round-by-round gif made by DraconisDomini In the end, Tomino doesn't represent all too much more than the other counselors when it comes to highest preference.

You'll certainly be missed, and despite whatever drama is going on in the background I'm sure that more than just myself would welcome you back should you decide to come back. Take care.

Well, one other advantage I can think of is that say in the unlikely case that the turret axis is destroyed and not the turret itself, it will still operate separate from your ship without burning out through the core's power. Very unlikely though. Though, typing power was a mistake on my...

Good point. I'll leave in the thrusters for the default blueprint, and replace them with a power source when mounted (or a shield if I want to go that way). Best of both worlds.

Single shield block isn't really worth the trouble. Don't turrets share shields with the mothership up till 50% anyway? I haven't had a chance to field test the ship itself just yet, just that the CIWS works well (but lags the crap out of me since I have 24 of them on this cruiser).

I usually do the same. This design happened to have a block of dead space that I couldn't use for anything inside of it though so I figured it couldn't hurt.

I've been working on a low-profile ship for a couple months in anticipation for the rail update. Now that we've got them I decided to make some low-profile point defense CIWS to go along with it. Features- 90-degree barrel articulation compact and almost fully armored only 3m high and 5m...

I'm all for transparency and letting the community know the circumstances of impeachment, but letting the council themselves handle impeachment like it was done recently doesn't seem to actually be a bad idea since it would allow them to quickly resolve conflict and let them get back to actually...
