      new gamemode idea

      -1 Good mini game, not so good as a game mode. This is something that's better suited as a mod, not as part of the core game.

      Read by Schine Change Warp System and Interdiction Ideas

      They are planing to have hyper drives in the capital ship update that should work this way. Why not have any ship be able to use hyper drives instead of just capital ships? Jump drives are great for short jumps or to escape danger, but not practical for long distance travel. The other difference...

      Cloaking and radar jamming rework - with computer and modules

      Doesn't the jammer reduce enemy missile accuracy when it's on? If it does I might be more inclined to put them on my fighters. Anyhow, that's another reason not to get rid of the jammer altogether.

      modular ships (and the mechanics to make them work)

      I do like designing weapons, and some of the heavy alpha weapons are too big to be turrets. "Armageddonator " sounds more like a fixed bow mounted weapon, not a turret.

      Read by Council Blank Parts and Blocks Idea

      I just save an empty hull of that ship and refit as needed, and seeing the number of hulls available for download lots of people do the same. It's not a bad idea, just not one I would use myself.

      Metaitem requests

      Good idea for boarding though. Maybe some sort of portable scanner that shows system block locations but not specifically which ones? As for the black boxes, it's more a way to cash in on killing pirates and players.

      Cloaking and radar jamming rework - with computer and modules

      Even patial transparency at detection range could work as a quick fix.

      Jumpdrive rework.

      If you can set a speed, like cruise control, the that could work. Don't like holding the W key for 15 mins to get somewhere.

      Cloaking and radar jamming rework - with computer and modules

      +1 If you're close enough to bump into a cloaked ship you should be able to discern some form of sillouette with the naked eye even. Think of the Predator, impossible to spot at a distance, but up close you can tell something is there even of it is just a blur.

      Metaitem requests

      Who wants to see more Metaitems? Got a new gadget in mind? How about some tradable commodities? Here's a few I'd like to see; 1. Lisences - buy a Lisence to get a small bonus for a limited time (or permanently if you pay enough). Could work for mining, trading, pirate hunting, and...

      Ship Landings Slightly Broken

      You should see what happens when you get out of the ship, mine stood straight up on its engines like it was ready for blast off. This has been a problem for a long time now. Gravity on planets has always been kinda wonky. Best bet for now is to either dock you ship or put a stop module to have...

      Damaged block texture issues.

      K. I get it now, thanks AndyP.

      Improved Shop System

      Shops upgrading based on activity, I like it. You could base the shop's growth on the profits it's brought in.

      Site blueprint categories

      I find classes of ships vary depending on the server. Some classify their ships by role as opposed to mass too, like I do. I do like the idea of tags to sort replicas, orginals, variants, refits, etc.

      Mothership line of site checks for Bobby

      Wouldn't be the first time I shot myself with my own turrets. Anything bigger than an AMS causes problems most times.

      Read by Council Block request: fence/handrail

      A nice aesthetic addition for sure. Now my cargo bay can have railings to keep people from falling off the gantry.

      Damaged block texture issues.

      So if I use a station to repair damage to my ship, it resets the hp and armor, but blocks that have been hit still show up as damaged? Is it actually repairing my ship then? Or do I have to use an astrotech to fully repair my ship?

      Damaged block texture issues.

      What's wrong in this screenshot? That's right! There are damaged blocks on the ship, but the HP and Armor are all full. I used the station repair to fix the damage, which reset the ship's HP and Armor based on the max for the number of blocks left, but damaged blocks seemed unaffected. Was...

      Brainstorm This Exploration and Information Trading

      I like this idea, but with so many maps to make, update, and store your inventory and storage blocks would fill up fast. Just have the maps available through the nav menu, and have the option to make a tradable map that can update someone else's maps when used.

      Planned More visual effects

      I'd like to see beam sizes scale with weapon size. Big alpha strike beams still look like laser pointers.
