You could have auto miners/nav bots too. Thrust activated by logic lends to having a use for area triggers outside the ship to activate thrust to avoid collision.

Neat idea, but governor is a loaded word. I assumed it was some sort of logic device to slow or gate a logic machine.

My biggest complaint on this is that it will keep pulling even though it's not being used. IE: You are missing one component, the factory will continue pulling.

While this is my current preferred method, there is a bug that tends to lose all the pull/sort settings along with all display settings (basically any block state) when reconstructing the ship. I haven't quite nailed it down, but I assume it's when you load in a ship via blueprint, then dock...

Thanks. I'll have to play with it then.

Anyone care to point me to the patch notes on this? I can't figure out how you are supposed to charge the drive with logic and still allow activation.

I mean there's not much I can do until we get some blocks to place and play with, and given that transferring cargo is still a pretty PITA process, I can wait until we have SOMETHING to go on. Considering that recently my friends are just, "fuck it, new update... Wipe your server and let's...

My steps involve waiting to find out how I'm going to be constantly transferring items from one entity to another.

I've had good luck taking them out with lock-on style missiles using the following config: Primary: Missile Computer with 50+ tubes linked Secondary: Beam Computer with no beam modules (only using it for lock on support) Tertiary: Explosive effect computer with as many modules as you like...

One thing I credit Space Engineers for is their ship blueprints. You place a projector on your ship, load a blueprint and the projector will show you a hologram of the buildable missing parts (parts that are connected to something) I know Starmade doesn't have a connection requirement, but the...

Hmm... completely empty, if true that ruins my plans of having a station in the same sector :(

I don't think it's happening. I cleared a sector and I have the server set to re-spawn in 100 seconds, but I do not see the asteroids re-spawn. I tried logging out and back in as well as leaving the sector and coming back.

Are race gates the same as the trigger gates that got added? Because I can definitely see a use for gates on a carrier to determine if a ship is internal. (Sorry, I have only played with the teleporters so far and not any gate mechanisms.)

The engine tends to add suffixes to the naming of similar items. You'll have things like 'turret_01'

I would assume the ray length would be capped so that you could not build that far out.

I just feel it's currently too clicky. You have to open the interface, select a destination, set the destination, then activate the teleporter. That's 4 steps you have to take to teleport. It can be 2 steps by adding quick buttons to each entry on the list. Open teleport computer, click...

The UI is a bit overly complex currently. I'd like to have a simpler way to select destinations. Currently you have to select a destination and activate the pad. I'd like to see the list featured more prominently and have quick buttons on one side to open the interface and quickly be able to...

Would be nice to see a constructor type block. Admittedly, my ideas for its use only extend to making long rails, but I imagine other uses as well. My concept so far is a block that you link to a chest and place a block next to it and 'V' connect it. If you have a block in the chest that...

The windows client launcher is not detecting a new version either. I think someone forgot to update the version files...

That is(was?) the way to update the Linux Starmade server. You may be wanting the client?
