      Read by Schine Adding tactical options in battles

      It sounds like transferring power to boost the shields in one particular area, while reducing the effectiveness elsewhere and adding a significant power drain.

      Who do we want as Counselors?

      As information conduits, what the councilors do with their time in game is pretty irrelevant. As long as they are in touch with the community and can relay the community's wants and desires to Schine objectively, then they are doing their job. Their job is not to relay information to the...

      Term 2 Voting Now Open

      Bench, has there been any sort of quality control done on these apps? Are there some minimum requirements or something? If not, there should be in the future. Quite a few of these apps can be completely dismissed and I'm betting a few of them are trolling. (really? you have no time available...

      Supply/Demand: The economics of Starmade

      First, I agree with this. Another 'region' I've seen mentioned is star types. But let's not forget player production based scarcity. Certain manufactured commodities will be rare simply because they are not used very often or are not popular. Not everyone is going to want to set up and/or...

      Elevator blocks

      Actually, it's better to use a speed controller to cause a stop. Just set it up with 1 off-state activator. The activator triggers for one cycle (0.5s) when you want the elevator to move. You can use the same speed controller for every stop on the line/shaft. This also has the benefit of...

      Yet. iirc, the plan is that you will be able to generally target the ship/station and will get teleported to a random Quarter. But Quarters aren't programmed into the game yet.

      While I like this idea, the main problem I see is teleporters. This is much harder and you'd probably still need to take out the shields. Why would I use this over telport boarding? Seriously, I would much prefer this over the OP teleboarding, but I can't think of why any one would bother. imo...

      Beams or Cannons for block destruction?

      This thread will devolve into everyone arguing about the 'perfect' weapon, the tactics to hard counter each of them, and which ones should be nerfed because they are 'OP'. Every one has their own opinion. In other words, it's a pretty balanced system. Bugs aside, it boils down to a personal...

      Ships + station systems and features

      Because of the way the 'grid system' works for stations and ships, converting back and forth is more hassle then it is worth. If it moves it is a ship. A ship with the parking brake on is not a station. Station systems are 'station systems' specifically to encourage the use of stations...

      Redesign SpaceStations

      It must be my lack of sleep. But how is this in any way different from the original post? This is, in fact, the very definition of 'procedurally generated'.

      Planned Starmade as an Astronaut

      According to Schema in the Q&A, Saber is the dev handling this end of things. So if you haven't read this thread yet, now would be a good time.

      Decorative Doors

      Decorative doors, I don't really see the point. However, the ability to actually lock doors would serve the same function.

      What I Miss Most from Minecraft

      First, Schema said specifically that there are no plans to include any 'hunger' mechanics. You will never have to stop everything and eat. Food, if implemented, will provide bonuses and not be required. By the time you are building a capital ship you should have spent time automating your...
