the bulb example is a perfect RL example of the reason for protecting script in some way, no one wants a sell once then go out of business before you sell another one, business model I don't personally believe that making fully functioning scripted items should ever be the exclusive domain of...

that's not how it works in RL lol :) Rolex havent killed the economy and trade in cheap watches :p quality nearly always costs more but doesn't kill the trade of cheaper alternatives that will still do the job i agree in principal but if someone writes the perfect drone script, i would like to...

true both ways the calculation would be similar, but one way would be handled by part of the game engine thats already causing lag and being heavily optimized atm the other way would be handled by part of the game engine that has a little room to do the calculations most of the above suggested...

would be nice if they could work that way, but i believe there are 2 ways to do that both of which would add to lag issues, either the collision routine would have to calculate the offset every time the docking unit was drawn (adding potential for lag) or the docking unit would need to store the...

yes that is ThunderBird 2, one of my Work In Progress ships, i also have a space 1999 Eagle WIP with dockable cargo pod but the pod on that one has to be built upside down due to docking orientation, and that ship also requires a docking area nearly twice the size of the ship

i definitely need this kind of change to docking mechanics, I have hollowed out an entire planet to make a hanger for my ship, my ship will fit in the hanger with space to spare around it But I cannot dock it in the hanger since the current centred docking box needs to be longer than the...

:) it works well on large ships as well, but you need to keep in mind it will get 'broken' when/if they introduce fall damage

If anybody that can code in java wants to have a go at updating SMEdit the author has made the source code available as open source for anyone to play with: https://github.com/StarMade/SMTools

sector have been restored, seems when a client that logged out while in the affected sectors before the crash ,logged in, the sectors were returned to normal was strange that the sectors were empty but the entity files for their contents were still present in the server database

the non-editable idea was just a quick thought towards a form of protection for script authors, if scripts have a value you wouldn't want someone under cutting you with a copy of your own script

the first test rider on my new planet wide antigrav travel system:

I do think both should be done but be configurable at server level to set which ways are enabled on the server, My thoughts on gate based FTL : requires 3 new blocks: gate power couple - only 1 allowed per sector and only placeable on a station or planet gate generator - only 1 allowed per...

I know scripting is coming, in one form or another This is my thoughts on the subject (may be too much work to implement but its only a suggestion): Scripts should be represented by a physical item in game similar to a logbook. programmable objects should have an inventory for the scripts to...

I know that, and agree with schema, there is no point in making a simple warp using the admin command code, it would potentially be completely unbalanced and would double the work load for adding a single feature, having to rewrite it later if someone does make a suggestion that is considered...

I think player shops should have buy + sell check boxes next to each item so you have better control over what it will buy and sell so if your only selling say hardened hull you can set it to sell only hardened hull and only buy the ingredients you need, and for a bank idea an option to set a...

I know this has been discussed / theorized to death already in numerous threads but my thoughts on ship based FTL are: 2 new blocks: FTL Navigation computer + FTL Drive block, linked using the same method as weapons computer and weapons FTL navigation computer: can plot a course to anywhere...

it would be nice to be able to be able to configure a server to pass a message to a client that fails to connect due to not being on the white list with instructions of where to go to get white listed etc. instead of the client showing: Critcal Error DisconnectException: You have been...

my server crashed tonight and several sectors were empty upon restarting is it possible to replace a .ent file back into a sector? since all ships lost are in the catalog but the space station is not and the station was built after the last backup was done. also Bug tracker does not seem to be...

I hope so :), I registered this account so i could post for support, there could potentially be lots of users with the same issue that didn't think of using another account so they cant get to the forum to post for support on the problem

I have done the same, created a new account to post about this issue. I Know my password but it has stopped working since the update, (even on the old site) when trying to request a password reset, the reset page always will not accept the new password due to an invalid token error (clicked the...
