      Why exactly is power broken?

      Bigger does not always win. Players that are good at small often do not share their creations or insights. Maybe Veilith needs to place some of his older Reduction Units on the docks. Though his player name does not even exist on the dock "alt". Take it from me the guy is really good at reducing...

      Easiest Answer for PvP: Flag of Peace

      Agree. But i do not have anything against it if it is an extra server configuration option. Where the server owner can choose to enable it yes or no. Because that would give you a peacefull survival server without the need for an admin online to police the rules. I think most players are...

      Well if we were to work with the options that are currently in the game then the first thing that comes to mind is this command. sector_chmod DESCRIPTION: Changes the sector mode: example '/sector_chmod 8 8 8 + peace', available modes are 'peace'(no enemy spawn), 'protected'(no attacking...

      Cant run the game when server is active.

      Easiest Answer for PvP: Flag of Peace

      Sure there are. Take your time to read the various servers rules. Some have do not attack other people. Or at the very least. Do not attack other people unless they agree to it. And if the server of your particular play style is not there then there is nobody stopping you to start your very...

      Basic Healthy Multiplayer Etiquette

      Other people already did this. It makes for great tension and clashes. Note that i speak from experience. I had my Home Base with all ships wiped out on servers where you loose faction points. Never did it stop me from playing StarMade or said server. If your a killer then you understand your...

      Basic Healthy Multiplayer Etiquette

      1. PvP is NOT Consensual. You are prey everywhere and anywhere. The only exception is someone in a build block on a Home Base. Stick your head out and i will shoot it off. Individual servers can offcourse have there own rule set. But to talk about general StarMade pvp multiplayer rules complete...

      Progressive Talk about ways to play this game with fun.

      My thoughts for ways to play -Give everyone DOOM CUBES -Aggressive hostile people only! -Builders who only care about looks or interiors are not allowed! -Strict build rules to prevent the server going into meltdown. "performance so ship size and ammount of cores used" -pew pew pew Benefits to...

      38,000 entities.... XD

      Been toying a bit with /despawn_all but i am not getting good results. One common prefix seems to be GFLTSHP_ or FLTSHP_ Most have numbers like B100-10 but /despawn_all does not accept wild cards. So /despawn_all B***-** unused true does not work. /despawn_all FLTSHP_ unused true Removes...

      38,000 entities.... XD

      Do not forget about the despawn command. This has always been mandatory to keep the regular pirates in check. You might also be able to use it on the NPC ships if they have a common prefix. For the Pirate Guild you would use: despawn_all DESCRIPTION: WARNING: this will delete the entites that...

      Bug Cannot salvage certain attack ships

      First ticket seems to be 14 Feb 2016. Last update on it being 28 Dec 2016. Until Andy reopens it on 10 Mar 2017. Possible because Darkovia711 makes a post about it here. Best solution at the end seems to be adding the shot ship to a fleet of your own. Which makes it salvageable again. However...

      Bug Cannot salvage certain attack ships

      A ship that is in a fleet can not be salvaged. The setting of being in a fleet is independent to whether the Ships Core is on overload or not. I am seeing a lot of abuse of this fleet command. People use it to prevent others from salvaging there shot ships. By keeping all there ships even the...

      New Asteriod Configuration

      Alright so that explains this part of the configuration: I must admit this had me a bit puzzled. I use the Planet configuration to keep Planets as small as possible. So i had not seen any deviation smaller then 50. I mostly have it at just 20 blocks difference to get that little bit of size...

      Maximum ship/station mass in the survival mode

      Yes this is stil an option of the GameConfig.xml. Generally this works well! You can set a limit to ship size. If the ship is bigger then you get a message that unless you scale it down it will not work. You can set both ship size limits and computer output limits. Example of a 100K ship...

      [SALVAGE TEST] What's wrong with the numbers I've got?

      I could be wrong but as i see it it is not a linear process. As you try to mine more blocks. The hill you climb will get steeper. The server can not calculate your block removal request in the time you want them removed even with a powerful CPU. Because there is a time frame in which the...

      [SALVAGE TEST] What's wrong with the numbers I've got?

      The Math is just one part of it. It is very complex Math to and it has to do this in almost real time. If the server CPU is weak. Or preoccupied with other things. From lets say lots of people on. The NPC going in a fleet wave storm. Or just because the server has not restarted in a while...

      New Asteriod Configuration

      Let me try to explain how the settings work. This will give you a maximum diameter Asteroid of 128 blocks. The center of the Asteroid is zero 0. From zero 0 you can go +64 or -64. The game will make all sizes of Asteroids from this setting. But none will be bigger then 128 blocks diameter...
