I'm returning to v0.200.335 until doors work reliably and structures render before I collide with them. I know the game is a Work-in-Progress, and that the designers want my feedback, but between buttons, doors, and rendering, I have caught myself yelling at my monitor because I'm tired of...

Yes. Stations, also. I've had very long wait times for both where I just hang in space nearby and watch, often without any other activity nearby, no combat, no other ships, no "heavy load," where the target is listed plainly on my navigation list and is only a few hundred meters away, but will...

I have noticed this in conjunction with a separate problem. I am having a hard time opening doors or pushing buttons. I tap R and get no response. Sometimes, if the door also has a button, then activating the button will open the door while the door ignores direct action. Other times, the...

The new update is full of new stuff and I'm still digesting it, but I have a point of confusion. I thought I remembered reading that directional thrusters was a suggestion that was long ago heard and rejected. This new update adds recoil. I'm sure I don't understand how it works, so could...

That was the first thing that I tried, but I could not find it there. After reading your post, I decided to go try again, this time making a list of the items in that zip file, planning to spawn them one at a time and check them off. Doing this led me to realize that the first time I tried...

The trade node Traders Home is a beautiful and functional station. I decided that I wanted to build my own, away in some lonely sector, just for fun, except that I cannot find the blueprints anywhere in the game files. The only place it seems to exist is as an entity, and that isn't a...

How about something as simple as a Sanctuary aura, granting a ship the same invulnerability enjoyed by a Home Base, but for a brief time after undocking from a Home Base? Just to keep it from being abused, it could be instantly and suddenly removed upon leaving the sector in which it was...

Just need to dial the 8th chevron...

With regards to this, I reviewed this post: https://starmadedock.net/threads/devblog-18th-july-2017-end-goal-document-part-2.29251/ TL;DR: I) Yes, space feels too small and non-FTL movement is totally viable for interstellar travel, and this needs to be changed. The star grid is terrible, but...

And that is the essence of what is fun regarding PVP: when the two belligerents are nearly matched. In Civilization when you have 50 cities and an opponent has 5, defeating them is not only a mere exercise, but also boring and not fun, and even less fun if you are the smaller civ. All the best...

How about a wireframe reticle of the block shape in build mode? Placing cubes is simple enough, but if I try to place a non-cubic shape, even something as simple as a wedge, of a dark color (like black), then the faded ghost that I see when trying to place it is so dim that I often cannot tell...

Stabilizers are the answer. A reactor will max-out at 4000 power (40 blocks) at 25% stabilization. To go beyond that, you must add stabilizers. Check out this video.

I agree with Byamarro above; the Universe update is going to make exploration more important and interesting. And while I appreciate any discussion of game balance, the solution to me is obviously to let the PVPers do what they please while I play on a server without PVP. Problem solved. I have...

Greetings! I discovered this game during a search for "games for engineers" and while the phrase "Minecraft plus XXXX" is an overused and often inaccurate descriptor, it properly defines StarMade. My interest is in building and exploration. I like any game that involves transportation serving...

So, I have discovered that I cannot place Pink Crystal Armor. I can place all other blocks (though I have not exhaustively tried to place them all), but I can't place this one. Anywhere. I can't place it singularly or with a larger brush. I can place other types of crystal armor, but not...

What really confused me (and I still find strange and a bit annoying, though I am now aware of it at least) is that when either pasting a template or selecting an area, a left-click is required to select a block, but that action also executes a place-block command. The way around this is to...

So regarding selecting, I have played with it some more and thought I'd share my results. With the selection pane open (not the brush pane), I click Copy Selection. The Copy Selection button changes to *CORNER1*, and a blue wireframe cube appears immediately before me. Also at this point...

New to this game (just started with v0.200.335), find it very compelling, but having some difficulties with build mode. It is clear to me that in order to create larger and more complex structures, I need to master the advanced build mode tools, but I feel like a child grasping in the dark. I...

Playing single-player and working on some designs while I consider what public server I might enjoy.

This is a fascinating discussion, but I think we may all get more out of it if everyone published their results and methodology along with the summary results. Scientific method is our friend. That would also make it easier to track the progress of the game changes over versions. Some...
