No, I really meant sector. I know the difference. Still, it's good to post that for anyone who doesn't, so good on you!

I totally propose build challenges (yes, plural). Not only does it promote a strong sense of community, you can get some original ideas into the game. Besides, the Devs are working on features they think will help the game be better. By offloading to the community for some of the content it...

What do I think? Well, I want to see those power armors, first. Seems like a neat concept. You should totally upload a basic setup to the Shipyard. Erecting structures inside a penetrated station is a good idea in theory, that I've tried in the past on our current stations, and I've found it...

You make some good points, and offer some good, complimenting ideas. On this one, we'll have to agree to disagree. The reason I think that PvE stations need a flaw that renders them susceptible to astronauts, instead of just being capable of breaking a station's defenses (and thus breaking...

You show a 16x16 processor, but it would also be a good idea for smaller processors to exist too: 2x2 - shrinks the most basic of complex logic into a controllable block/chip. (e.g. NAND, NOR, XOR) 4x4 - Useful for slightly more complicated logic 8x8 - Useful for logic applications that...

I do think that there need to be a variety of designs, though. Sure, it'd be awesome to find a really neat pirate Dreadnaught design, but what about a neat corvette with a chain drive, or a permacloak fighter, or even a humble mining ship? The possibilities are legion, and that's what would...

I amended my suggestion with a point about having pirates spawn in with equivalent masses to the ship you're piloting. I think having a very small ship - for instance, the Origin M50 is an appropriate match for most starter ships - minimal shields and weapons, but durable enough to put up a...

has had an epiphany: current Pirate stations suck.

The TL;DR Edition: By changing the pirate station content, and making pirate stations rarer, and ensuring that weak pirates with limited loot appear, we can have better PvE without any coding or design changes to the game as-is. The Suggestion So, I was screwing around with an idea for ship...

I second this. It's a challenge to fit a good ship into a few blocks, and it can be very fun!

Shaker - You didn't read his post. What he's actually arguing for (well, partially), is for a 'colonizing' system that produces a special NPC (the pilots). These pilot NPCs must be assigned to ships, in order for them to operate. Actually this whole setup perpetuates StarMade's status as a...

So, I have a different take on the mass-limit thing. The performance gains are important, but not as important as how the gameplay could be affected by a strict mass limit. Right now, Starmade has balance problems - literally. Bigger ships are always better; you don't really need strategy...

This raises another question. Will new NPC factions start up periodically? That could potentially be...technically challenging. Still, being able to quest for factions, then 'disrupt' them, rinse, repeat, could be an unusual, but interesting play style. You're in essence being a U.S...

First things first. It's possible to be very aggressive with criticism. I want to start by saying - thanks for working on this game. Your efforts, and those of the entire Schine team, are very appreciated. The game we have, is better and more stable than the game I bought for $9.99 a couple...

Foreword: I'm being critical of StarMade. These critiques are because I care - I like the idea of this game, and want it and its developers to succeed. In this game's current state, I don't see this happening. If you can't stomach someone being critical, or expressing problems with this...

So, a problem with this suggestion - and the game in general, but one thing at a time - is the new player experience. New players simply won't have resources to do much of any of this stuff. That's before you get to the fact that due to the advent of the drone-based meta, you're still...

has built an Oreo ship; what about ship that is a taco?

I see things a bit differently than Olxinos. That being said, they make some strong points in their assessment. Predictability: Placing a block leads to predictable outcomes To be honest, this doesn't do as good of a job of this objective as Schine thinks it does. Yes, the reactor chamber...

TL;DR? +1. Schine, please impelment this, this would make building aesthetically pleasing anything so much easier.

I refuse. :P Also, I pity the fool who'd attempt to build the Enterprise-J in StarMade on anything less than a supercomputer.
