      Starmade Art Thread

      Looks perfect for alien hive builds! I have a feeling it won't stay, though. =P

      StarMade v0.199.214 Auxiliary Power, Better Graphics, Better Textures, and Bugfixes

      Well, it is the collisions that cause the lag, but it's because the two entities are usually a hole and a filler of the exact same size. The game pushes the filler from one wall just for it to meet another as soon as virtually possible, so the number of checks and actions slows the game down...

      Don't forget the warheads!

      StarMade v0.199.214 Auxiliary Power, Better Graphics, Better Textures, and Bugfixes

      The new auxiliary power is pretty neat, I could see it being used for logic randomizers, too. Seems to just set off one explosion after a block breaks, and then more chain reaction or anything, is this intentional (for a 6x6x6 cube)? It's great to see the textures looking more natural now...

      In regards to the battery subsystem that is in the works

      I think this could become quite interesting, they should be some trade-off, though. Maybe it auto-transfers power slower than if you held down the slot in the hotbar? The same pump/tap blocks could have a second purpose to transfer the power directly to a docked ship somehow, too. =)

      Would you call cannon-cannon-effect weapons "tier 3"?

      To be fair, there isn't really any weapon better than another one in every way. A weapon with more damage consumes more power and vice-versa.

      Thermite is Fun!

      Wait, is this a thing from a Dev build, or am I really missing something? And is it called Thermite in-game (IRL, it's not Thermite until the iron and aluminium is set on fire, IIRC)?

      Recognized Solar Panels!

      I'm saying yes, but only if they require more than one module to function, thus keeping over-powered warheads and drones trickier to build. Ion Grids, Solar Chargers?

      Can't get my drones to heal my other drones?

      The AI can't use passive effect modules either, such as using the Stop module to ignore gravity or the Ion module to boost shield strength. Hopefully the future will show some AI improvements, if not some customization features. =)

      Loading Ramp help?

      You can use some angled door blocks that disappear while the ramp is moving in most designs. This way you don't have to translate your ramp at all. =) Also, you can rotate this red block but not this yellow one as the red one perfectly fits (Grey is supposed to represent air, but 1/2 and 1/4...

      Criss' Thread

      Criss , I hope your lore gets somewhere in-game, it works real well and makes the ships so much more interesting! :) A cross-section would be something I'd be interested in seeing. It would also be a good opportunity to show new players some tactics for building their ships!

      Block Light Quality

      128 most often, as the update time is just-right and I use a lot of advanced shapes that need more advanced lighting to look good.

      New Trailer

      I feel it would be best to wait for the NPC/Crew and AI Fleet updates before a new trailer is made, giving it more stuff to showcase to newcomers. P.S: With a new trailer make sure to showcase walking mechs and skid racing, they really help Starmade stick-out!

      Make Black Lights Be UV

      I think that's pretty-much how it would work. A good example of what I'm thinking of is visible in most laser tag arenas, the coloured sections are usually lit up by a UV light, leaving the rest quite dark and your teeth turn (very) light purple.

      Bug "PLAYER_MAX_BUILD_AREA" Not working! :(

      I believe you have to change the config settings in-game now?
