Bah, I've got plenty of things that trigger that alert as well. To be perfectly frank it is quite draconian and if the server detects any actually troubling 'logic bombs' it will automatically freeze logic on an entity for 10 seconds or so. There is really, really, really nothing to worry about...

The recent update added a message displayed to server admins/moderators when a large amount of logic/door/lights are toggled all at once. In this case 'Logic bomb' would be someone creating a logic contraption with the distinct purpose of slowing down the server. You can safely ignore that message.

Boopaloop, here's me very latest R-35C capital class Nocx drive.

The Sibyl represents a multitude of refinements over the smaller Saryth. While it remains an effective opponent in skirmishes, the fire support cruiser’s true usefulness comes into play during fleet operations where its combination of utility functions and candid long range weaponry can quickly...

It's about darn time! Welcome into the fancy orange name club, Nightrune.

Speaking from a viewpoint of plentiful testing in both controlled and live environments, I can safely say that the only noticeably underpowered weapon types are shotguns (barring heatseeker missile swarms) and pulse primaries. Of the remaining weapons there is a decent balance struck. Cannons...

Closing thread by request. Long live Aesthetica.

More fleet/AI features? Oh yes. Empire building? Oh yes! Count Duku? Oh no.

That. Was. Kickass. Yeah, the above report does a good job of highlighting the important bits but it doesn't expand upon why I loved today's fight. It wasn't just big ships facing each other and left clicking. Heck, it wasn't just the normal maneuvering either. After securing the area from the...

Some sort of supply upkeep is a concept I completely agree with. However I think the issue with gigantism and the entire big vs. small ship arguments can be primarily attributed to manpower instead of disproportionate differences in combat power. A big massive club of a ship is much less...

It's definitely trying, what with all the half features and hinted gameplay everywhere... But at this point 'the game is dead' is a line I have heard consistently in every lull in updates since Schema stopped releasing fourteen and three quarters versions a day and started tackling more...

Okay, gotta say that Brokkyr spotlight dock is creative. Kudos, and I hope to see more.

Locking thread on faction leader's request.

So if ships create fuel at just a slightly slower rate than they require what is stopping one from 'cutting out the middle man' so to speak? Simplify the system by removing a ship's fuel generation and lowering the fuel consumption by the same amount.

I agree with the above points; EMP can be a very useful disabling tool. EMP at full effect deals twice as much energy damage as it costs to fire, not counting the increased energy cost of having multiple outputs. Utilizing a 50% EMP weapon is a good option to mess with the enemy's power layout...

Would it be at all possible to ensure that Krazzydragon's whitelist has been kept up since the server change? I've gotten a complaint about not being able to get on since the change to Cake.

Think I'll keep on building, systems included. Taking a half-year break from Starmade to wait on power changes doesn't sound like fun right now.

Interesting... Perhaps some creative logic use could reduce the entity count needed. I love the application of rail speed changes.

As Mortiferum says, the best test is against other designs by other people. While you can go through the effort of building and fighting with your shiny new ship on a server, I would recommend finding knowledgeable players on a build server if allowed. If the right people are there you can begin...

Starmade combat is rated by the number of blocks one brings to a battle. There are lots of other variables, of course, but number of blocks is the usual starting place. Fighters have excellent damage avoidance, potentially very good armor efficiency without sacrificing thrust, and perhaps the...
