      So why are the old shops and stations still around?

      I'd say it's because for now they're meant merely as temporary stand-ins. Many of the features and from what I know quite a few blocks/non-block objects that stations would use are not yet done so whenever new stations come in they kind of are amusing gimmick at best currently, lacking any...

      What would you compete in?

      Only tangentially related to what OP hopes for, but once we'll have majority of the final mechanics and blocks that are meant to be in the final game, I'd like to see another default trade, pirate, neutral and [whatever other default faction that may make it into the game - I hope there would be...

      Fuel, as a replacement for docked reactors.

      Aaand that's - among other reasons - why my next paragraph about not minding it being expanded to a mechanics regarding effective powering of whole vessel. In theory, you're right but I am pretty sure that people will probably want the feature simple - just dock and move stuff through some...

      Fuel, as a replacement for docked reactors.

      I generally like the fuel as described in the threads of the past - a way to provide lot of power, though generally more in relation to propulsion rather than supporting whole ships, with said propulsion being the regular one as opposed to current fuel-less, which would have to be made weaker in...

      player count

      I doubt that'd really work. Many people will not send any data, many servers will stay private. I am not even sure if Steam actually provides anything close to player number estimation - for example, the people I know outside of the online communities play StarMade through non-Steam client, me...

      Worst deaths you've had or seen?

      Quickly landing new, shiny, made in toil after longer period of time of gathering parts ship with the horribly buggy collision turned on. It was a pain to even watch.

      Implemented A new block (Decoration)

      To be honest I'd rather wait for actual decorational models than kind of hacked in blocks with textures - the way I'd hope for actual furniture rather than rough combination of blocks.

      Food cooking

      I would appreciate it if the game wouldn't expect me to eat lava, cannons, computers and other such things. Sure, it may seem amusing to some and it may even be for the first minute one will do it - the rest of the game and everyone else? It may seem much more like something that was meant to be...

      Community Content 5 Star Rating - Is it a good thing?

      The matter's somewhat complicated and a problem that any kind of public rating suffers. On one hand, like mostly everywhere online where the content revolves around certain community, there is a huge possibility that ratings in general aren't the best indicator of content's quality - many...

      Teleporters like in star trek

      I'd prefer to have dropships, shuttles and boarding pods myself not just as an alternative but a mainstay of planetside/station travel and boarding endeavors. Teleportation is kind of simple but also rather cheap and killing potential for the above to have much point.

      Tank VS Mech

      First, depends on the setting. Since this thing is still in General Discussion forum and not as an off-topic then I'd say both mecha and tanks in Starmade are just starships. Except what makes mecha different from tank - the limbs etc - usually do not provide any advantage whatsoever, being just...

      What is Needed to Make Boarding Actions a Reality?

      I'd be against faster astronauts. Ships that can attach themselves (kind of forced docking) temporarily to enemy vessel would be more reasonable. It'd allow somewhat believable boarding through the use of troop transport shuttles rather than seeing some guys going EVA and chasing spaceships...

      Point of having interior.

      Suggestion threads for crew, interior and even those two features working together were already made in the past and quite thoroughly discussed from the standpoint of immersion, being a starting point for more features, balancing units of different sizes and so on. Search for details. There is...

      I think i found a Easter egg...

      Yeah, it's nothing special. Just old first steps at adding some immersion and lore to the game. I believe there's just low chance of a datalog spawning among loot at certain locations - I am pretty sure I've got one from a pirate station versions ago.

      The Solar Threat

      I would also agree - the suggestions provided seem reasonable and shouldn't be too hard to add, while noticeably help with the experience of any player regularly risking heat damage.

      Micro Vehicle Production

      Not him but to help the discussion along - I think what OP lack and what you need to provide to make this idea viable is convincing reasoning why should it be done - how it'd improve things while making effort necessary for implementation of such idea worth the work involved. People mention...

      Micro Vehicle Production

      I have to agree. Adding any kind of ground vehicles that would require special mechanics and framework to exist would be kind of a waste of time and effort given how actual 'ground' (planets) are currently made. Plus, even if said planets would be remade to be much bigger and varied (while...

      So this spoiler appeared on chat... NPC shipyards?

      Making up rumours regarding upcoming content blown up in the face of everyone involved (including innocents, like the devteams) so many times before in the history of game development that it may be good it was shot down. At the very least, such kind of things should wait till beginning of April.

      Control panel and systems management

      It's not the first time customizable 'switchboard' was suggested and yeah, it'd be nice, though there should be certain limitations in how many systems can be slaved, what's the power use and so on.

      new gamemode idea

      I'd actually would neither make it a mod nor game mode, but one of the possible events happening randomly in the world, once there'll be more default factions, NPCs and so on. Border stations at the edge of some faction's territory being regularly assaulted by enemy forces (and repaired if...
