I remember when I started playing about 4 years ago. Everything was balanced WAAAY differently compared to the last release, to the point that my original ships couldn't function at all. The new mechanics will undoubtedly see the same level of refinement. I know it's a lot like polishing a...

I take the insane path, and put the stabs in the back!

Same here, but alas my computer is having power supply issues... just like starmade, apparently. I feel like there's a joke in there somewhere, but it isn't funny.

I think the bubble should collapse, based on percentage of remaining shields. At 20% your shield bubble is actually only covering a fifth of it's initial area. :davedurr:

New frigate I'm using to try out power 2.0. I keep getting false starts, as I learn more and more about it. This will be the MK-C since it'sthe 3rd prototype I've made from scratch. I've put the reactors in front of the stabilizers, since if I lose reactor blocks, my e/sec merely goes down. If...

Maybe if you can make an alpha gun that clears out the enemy's structural integrity in 1 shot, the whole thing will go up in smoke.

Did something happen? Or is it just because of all the silence?

I'll leave these here, so they'll come in handy the next time... (I think the 1st one is probably the most useful)

I don't know. I think I had read at one point that starmade actually was borne out of a separate project he had been doing. IIRC he basically wrote a game engine using java, and THEN decided he wanted to make a space voxel game. So maybe it's more like game and engine development are going on...

So...I dont understand how this is supposed to encourage me to make a pretty ship, if I want it to be effective. Can't i simply place 100% of my systems tightly packed into an armored crucible? Even if it's not a meta way to build, would a long cubic rectangle automaticcaly be superior to any...

I don't like all of this, but I like enough that I'm going to save this thread for my own personal later use at some undetermined point in the future...

I agree, if it's built for performance then no it shouldn't suffer any penalties for being decorated. If it's built for aesthetics first, there shouldn't be any convoluted mechanics which attempt to put it on par, performance wise, with a ship that was built first and formost to be a warship...

I'm sure this could be rectified at some later time. Honestly, I can't believe I've actually pulled a 180 on power 2.0. I think when it was announced I had in my head that the design considerations which were going to be the most important was having shaped systems, and how different shapes...

Thanks. I must have missed that detail when it came out. schema, I think that stabilizers in their current form are fundamentally flawed. If you have to add such things as "node streams" such as you have, simply to have some semblance of balance, then perhaps what you have on your hands is a...

But why though? Why does it have to be indestructible? That doesn't make sense. "Lets have an indestructible, non physical line that connects our power system together? Why does it need to be a thing that exists? If i put it into my ship, YOU should be able to shoot it out. Also, why cant i...

Honestly, even though i hate stabilizers, the node streams arent too bad of an idea. I just don't inderstand why we need the streams, instead of just using conduits to connect the stabilizers to the reactor. That gives you much more control over the size and placement of the "power path" without...

In which case most ppl will simply rescale their fighters until they are the size of current frigates. This is a bad system. I liked starmade because it was space-minecraft. Thats literally what i googled when i found it. This just puts it more into line with being something i dint care to get...

During weapons tests with a "destroyer" i'm working on, my shields will spontaneously explode if i sustain more than 90% drain on my power for longer than 30 seconds. This happened 4 different times. Reactor is 50% stable, using 4 turrets. The source of the internal explosions always came from...

Well currently my ships seem to spontaneously explode when i over tax the new power system...so it's kind of like that now lol

And not a single dislike was casted...
