Wow! Really impressed by the solid and thorough advice here, thanks for giving me a lot of pointers and references!

I'm jumping back into starmade after about a year of absence and I'm trying to build a ship larger than most things I have build this far, somewhere between 100 to 200 meters long**. Being on a server with pvp I would like this ship to be competitive. So my question is, what are the stats of...

Hey guys I've been away for the last few versions. I've noticed a couple of changes with armor and I just have a few questions before I delve into ship making again. 1. Are Shields still way better than armor? 2. Is armor actually useful now? 3. Is having 2-4 layers of adv hull on the front...

IGN- Moose Why you want to join the server- Want a nice build server to play with a friend. Example of your work- None yet. Your favorite type of cake- Double layered chocolate cake with chocolate shavings.

Sounds interesting. Out of curiosity how will you spawn the derelicts in?

I've been running into some weird bugs like this too. I recently redid a portion of my engines and when I reloaded, parts of the previous engine overlapped it. One of my turrets also did this, even the blueprint was affected. I think there's a bug abound...

If your ship is to big, you can change the size of the adv. build mode box in the config file (StarMade -> server.cfg) if I remember correctly.

Ehh, I wish it would disperse damage better, but an explosive weapon of enough caliber will destroy or damage 18 blocks. It's especially useful on smaller cannons that can't punch through that much.

Dumb missiles should be immune to point defense. They're tough enough to aim already and outmatched by every missile in the game. Might as well give them some sort of boost Missile/Cannon should be more powerful at 100%, currently the missile blocks do 1 damage each at 100%, on top of that...

Everything looks pretty cool, I especially like the cards but. I can't get behind 'buying' ships. I usually play single player with spurts of activity between friends. I play StarMade for the building experience. I regularly download ships to learn first hand how people achieved certain...

That's exactly the problem. I'm using a couple of 'nukes' (missile/pulse/explosive) and vs the same ship I can take out all the turrets in a single blast. I hope this bug gets fixed.

Long story short, every time I build turrets, they seem to get vaporized by missiles. Any general turret suggestions to make them a bit more durable? Should I even bother with small turrets and just have giant turrets on my ships? Also what's some good weapon combinations on turrets? Anything...

Hehe I'm not part of the Swarm, but agents of chaos keep the game interesting :P

How 'bout this one? http://starmadedock.net/threads/the-swarm-hostile-alien-nomad-anarchy-roleplay.3966/

One of the biggest problems that I've noticed is that there's no way to tell if that single AMC shot coming towards you will do ten damage or ten thousand. On top of that we don't know if that shot will glance off your armor or punch from bow to stern. This also makes putting situational...

Now that we can officially sit (press 'o') I thought it would be appropriate to gather up some comfy chair pics! So post your iron thrones! Your Captain's chairs! Your seated swivel machines!

Why the Overdrive (something that adds a useful effect) instead of putting it on Stop/Pull/Push?

Effects can provide any effect ammo can have, and you don't need to manage ammo. There's really no reason to add ammo at this point.

Just spitballing an idea here. What if there was a weapon slave that made the master shoot in bursts, not a shotgun burst like missiles but a chaingun sort of burst one shot after another in quick succession. The slave would divide the damage done evenly over the amount of shots. The slave will...

You say I make to many assumptions, but I think it's logical to conclude we're likely not going to have a weapon that can one shot a ships shields (assuming the ships are equal size). If we do, I think it's fair to say we'll have some serious balance issues. If mines have any homing capability...
