      What ever happened to game performance?

      "are you running singleplayer ?" Yes "did you assign enough memory in the launcher settings to run Starmade properly (around 4 GB should do for SP)" I used the default which appears to only be about 1 GB. I tried 4 GB, and it must have been an issue because my FPS doubled to 20. It is still...

      What ever happened to game performance?

      I bought StarMade way back in its alpha days when it was new and developing. I quit playing when the weapons update came out. Back then I could get 60 fps near planets with good settings including maximum texture quality, high lighting settings, bumpmaps, and pretty good draw distance. Sure it...

      State of the game.

      Only a few sentences of this were even about the state of the game. Basically the state is: Not too un-optimized, still lacking content but increasing in features.

      Total malfunction on my end after recent hotfixes.

      Does this happen on single-player? Are you getting any error message?

      Cannot salvage planet

      I had this on singleplayer, and it happened right after I got a popup about some error. Physics problem or something. Even without this, it is still sad to not be able to salvage straight though a planet anymore.

      Planetary No Load Mode

      Probably could have the server doing the entire loading and have clients only load what needs to be rendered, so culling the downloading of the non-visible blocks for clients. For now if you are loading planets and don't want to, reduce the max segments (view distance) setting and it wont load...

      Ejection Block / Explosive Bolts

      Can't this already be done with the bomb blocks by docking ships made of them?

      Best video capture program?

      I hear bandicam is pretty good. I don't know what the restrictions on the free version is though.

      Efficiency ratings are completely out of whack!

      Brand new laptop, 100% load before crash, halp?

      The problem is that you chose a laptop with Intel graphics chip. You may have problems in other games as well because of this. You should have considered a laptop with an AMD apu or a dedicated graphics card if you plan on using it for games.

      Bug Power Calculating Wrong (Or Thrusters)

      Power blocks are based on the sum of the dimensions. Basically it doesn't matter the arrangement, as long as you are maximizing perimeter. A long line would be better than a solid cube for example. For thrusters, this keeps changing. It isn't the same as power. Last time the game let me play...

      Salvage Cannons now Focus

      Convergence should never happen unless you are extremely close to the target, in which case it always should.

      Does this mean all of the defensives are cooldown use?

      StarMade running REALLY slowly?

      Shadows are a massive perfomance killer (and still don't look that great). I get 100 FPS no problem with turning everything else hardly making a hit. Shadows even on barebones make my FPS drop to a tenth.
