And that's where server configs and changes come in, cause there are always people who don't enjoy certain things, so they turn them off. For myself I would love the immersion this would bring to the game. Yes it might make some things harder, but I like challenges.

This would support other aspects in the game. Say a fire starts in your ship. No air no fire. If a fire happens you could vent all the air fire goes out, etc. I added your suggestion of air tanks to the original post, good idea.

Very valid points. Do you have any suggestions for balancing these things out?

Hi

I think these are great ideas! 1. Parts that are broken off, I think its a awesome idea. Say when a part is severed it becomes a asteroid. Though this could result in a LOT of entities, which may cause lots of lag. Great Idea none the less. 2. Mass, Enough has been said above. 3. Fire, I...

I think this is a really cool idea, though just as Nickizzy said there could be combinations that are way too powerful. So I think for this idea to even work out, we would need to flesh out some balancing ideas. Perhaps, for each system added the damage gets weakened.

Use lock ons, target the turret, bam the whole weapon is now out. This way actually makes it much easier to take out weapons since its a turret. Otherwise you would have to take out the computer itself, which most place in the middle of the ship.

I've broken 3 rail dockers just today because of this.

You would be able to hit it just as well as any other weapon on a ship.

[Edited] Have a weapon system on the main ship, then a same type of weapon system on a turret. Link them in the same manner you would with a wireless logic module. So now you have a very compact turret that is really powerful. With this setup you would only need 1 computer and its module, bobby...

So agree.

So my friend and I like doing multi part ships. Moving Doors, docked reactors and what not. Though they introduce 2 issues. One being that you can only dock a entity at one spot and two that they will only ever inherit up to 50% of the main ships shields. Essentially making docked entities a...

Magnetic Docking Rails is already planned, if that is what you mean. https://trello.com/c/7YWFpNHp/5-magnetic-rail-docking

That is what I was picturing as the most efficient way.

This should only be "taxing" when you place a "Atmospheric Generator" it would parse the empty blocks its associated with just like when selecting multiple modules, it would take a few moments depending on the area space. Now when you get a hole in your ship or open a door, the atmosphere area...

I saw a few other threads that dabbled in having such a system. But I felt like a more in depth idea was deserving. I would propose the following system for having on-board environment systems. Have blocks that generate atmosphere in the empty area that they are adjacent too. Possible block...

I think before something like this can be implemented they really need to do a environment system, aka oxygen like Gladstone was talking about, I will refer to this as atmosphere. There not only needs to be a system for detecting what area becomes the atmosphere but they would also need a way of...

Get off your mighty high horse. This forum is for discussing ideas not raging on ideas. Make your point and move on.

I like that, so summary of ideas now: - When your ship gets hit while cloaked you get de-cloaked - You're shields stay down while cloaked. Meaning that you have 0 shields and they will have to be regenerated once uncloaked. - Cloaking power based off ship proportions ( IE x, y, z ). - Cool down...

Ideas / thoughts: I am just going to list all the cloaking ideas I have had. Keep in mind some of these would not be good together: - When your ship gets hit while cloaked you get de-cloaked - Can't have shields on while cloaked - Cloaking power based off block count. - Cloaking power based off...
