      So long as they're cool, they count. Because we just want to see them, no matter how stock or modified they are.

      Faulken's Nest

      Of course. Plus an ISDII has a more efficient shape for a warship. That long wedge allows sequential weapon mountings, as the hull naturally rises to give turrets a good forward arc without absurd tower emplacements (i.e. Atlanta-class cruisers from WoWS, that 3rd turret lol) to push them above...

      Russian Minesweeper

      Currently, 40x40 block square board, plus a few additional boards spaced out below it to add more movement layers for pieces. Specifically, knights and diagonally-moving pieces. I was kidding on the AI part, that's nigh-impossible given a reasonable time allotment and given the usual casual...

      CIR - Postponing next term

      Deceptively short. Good to know all that, and I can get behind where it's going. Enjoy your deceptive workload, that looks like a good bit of changes to make to various systems ;). Thanks for the response.

      Russian Minesweeper

      I checked it, and no, it does not. Which means I have an excellent method of locking pieces at the start and finish of a game. However, I've still gotta pull some workarounds on Knights and diagonal-moving pieces (I have a square grid, and can't make diagonal rails, so workarounds are...

      Opinions On Starmades Combat

      Lightweight armor is either Standard or Hull right now. See several-months-old suggestion on partially-charged jumpdrives carrying you through the sector. The idea was that partially-charged jumpdrives turn their charge percentage into distance (as a percentage of a sector in the server)...

      Read by Council Explosions (with the new plume effect)

      A series of blasts: first, the missile exhibits the largest flash, based on its color. Rather than being a white standard, it should blow up red or orange to give some more explodey atmosphere elements. Second, a simple equation reduces the number of blocks immolated into a good number for glowy...

      Advice on a station?

      Alright, I'd say if you shift all those crane-looking boxes on top around to be asymmetrical, it's perfect. It's just that total symmetry that some people disapprove of - I think it looks cool, personally, to have asymmetric details here and there, but it's harder than a symmetric shape because...

      Russian Minesweeper

      StarMade Chessboard - I've not seen one, anybody know of one? I'm gonna build one for the heck of it, but hey, might be cool to see somebody else's. You have the pieces - as artsy as you want, could even be just letters. Your setup is a double gridwork: one, a grid of sunken rails, so the...

      Charon 2.0 - A WIP super titan [Update 5 : new medium turret]

      Yes. I will build myself a large AMS-Paddle for Pong, and see what happens. If I can't do it, I'll step out and click a button on the AI. It's still manual, I just activated something to fire it for me ...;)

      Charon 2.0 - A WIP super titan [Update 5 : new medium turret]

      Yeah, but the human eye can track only about 30 "frames" or changes per second. Actually, human brain; I think the eye sends all that information but the brain only processes things so fast. So of course you could notice a change between 24 and 60; but beyond 30, there is very little, if...

      *CRASH* What's going on up there? *CRASH* What the heck? (Pilot) That's the new assault frigate they were developing. Sounds like it hit the glass windows up there. (First Guy) Why do they have giant stained glass windows IN SPACE? Aren't those just giant hull-breach liabilities? (Pilot) Yeah...

      Charon 2.0 - A WIP super titan [Update 5 : new medium turret]

      35 FPS????? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I get 15 working on 250m ships (occasionally less than that on smaller ones). I consider 25 FPS to be GREAT, and can work flawlessly. 35 is FASTER THAN THE HUMAN EYE CAN TRACK. HOW CAN YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT???? Are you an alien, then? What the heck kind of...

      Continuation of fps drops as updates progress.

      300 FPS .... HAH! I get 30 MAX on empty sectors, minimum settings (not even the "Minimum" option, like I go through and check everything OFF or LOW), on my machine. You can occasionally hear the rats inside the casing struggling to keep it moving along. It's a bad computer, can't barely run a...

      It's not the time, it's the effort! Do you have any idea how much effort it is to run through all those thoughts and make them logical for you intellectually poor species? You need to learn to read my thoughts as I see them; it's such a better organization than you inferior species can...

      I'm sorry HolyCookie, the cats distracted me and I couldn't read your post. I'm sure it was interesting though. All right, I'm serious now. Good ideas, guys. But nobody's responded to me!!! :( What about MY giant pages of text? If I need to edit it, I could. Maybe. I hate reading through my...

      JRS-fleet screenshots and information

      Lol Peekie. I like the ships. Excellent mix of sizes (I disagree with your classifications, but whatever ;) ); however, your turrets appear to have random cannon blocks on the ends... not connected to anything. Just out of curiosity, what're they there for? I like most of them; a few are more...

      Opinions On Starmades Combat

      Yeah, being able to take fire control of all the turrets would be great. Could double into the NPC systems - NPCs don't control remote turrets, and if they do, it's still a follow-the-pointer setup where all guns go one direction, where the bridge guy says. This means that, if, instead of having...

      Damage beam/cannon VS cannon/cannon stats discrepancy?

      Sorry then, Lecic, in my (limited) experience they appeared to be the most efficient shieldbreaking weapons out there. Of course, this could easily be the result of limited weapons experience. However, I like hitscan stuff. Makes targeting easy - point and shoot. Although, with a cannon, you get...
