A mass-based turning system is a terrible idea, things don't even work like that in the real world anyways. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_of_inertia

So basically exactly the same system as is used in the Freespace games? I'm ok with this.

Shield supply beams have already been nerfed (they only give the mothership the "under fire" recharge rate. Test it yourself if you don't believe me. And perhaps I should clarify: Why are EMP weapons useless? They have to work against a ship's own regen, so in order to drain the power of a ship...

So what is going to be done about the useless weapon systems that are currently in the game? (i.e) -Push Pulse -Shield Supply -Shield Drain -Power Drain -Push/Pull as passive effects -EMP as weapon effect Are these inevitably going to be removed? What will/should these be replaced with?

Not sure what kind of wimpy turrets you were using, but they shouldn't be losing. Drones need engines and turrets don't, after all. Ways to combat drones: -Stopping weapons on turrets -Missile+Damage Beam weapons on turrets -amc+amc+punch through weapons on turrets That's really all you need

Pierce can't damage shields, therefore it is useless.

This is already in the works along with new effects for different weapon combinations, I believe.

You need about 4000 power supply beams (no slave weapons) to transfer 1 mil e/sec *edit* 4000 beam blocks on a single beam*

Yes, I'm well aware of this chart and have been for some time. Only an uninformed idiot would make a post about something they don't completely understand, which brings me to: Did you even read my posts, or should I spell it out for you? But go right ahead with pressing your pretentious...

@Lecic There's no point in building an overdrive-only or Ion-effect-only ship because both of these are only useful in combat ships. With this nerf, combat ships simply cannot afford to use either of these because the space is better used for shields, weapons or power. This applies to ships of...

Even if the nerf was only 1/10 instead of 1/100 it would be fine, but now anyone who's built a ship in the past 5 months can throw it into the garbage and start over There's already no room in ships when 1/5 of your ship has to be thrusters just to move at the top server speed, not to mention...

WHY? WHY????? Whose idea was it to nerf all passive effects by a factor of literally 100%??? This is easily the worst change in the history of the game.... It's practically unplayable right now It's like saying "oh here's this fancy awesome stuff you can add to your ship! but you'll never be...

@keptick no offense but that 6k ship must have been a piece of garbage if it got beat by something half its size Anyone who's half decent at building turrets for their ship will annihilate small drones like they're nothing

Well damn if you can pull off a gif like that from Starmade then I'm excited to see how this pans out Starmade does need more professional videos out there...

@Omni Are actual explosions and/or shock waves planned for missiles and explosive blocks? That would be a lot of fun...

@FunnyBunny14 Like I said, I don't know if that's what it is now (because that message box no longer shows up) but that's what it was before I've been going through every weapon-weapon-effect combination over the past few days and most of the stuff is correct but occasionally the power...

Protip: 75% of the stats in the structure/weapons tabs are broken or just plain wrong For passive effects I believe it's still 1 block for every 10 mass for 100% efficiency (I may be wrong)

We also need weapon sounds and weapon impact sounds for the myriad of weapon combinations now in the game On top of that we need weapon sprites to cast light on nearby objects

Just glass it.
