      New Launcher problems...

      Thank you for the speedy advice. I ended up having to reinstall my AMD driver software suite, because some setup utilities weren't installed properly (I found this out by browsing the videos for a bit) and then downloading and installing the whole software suite). After that, I made sure all...

      New Launcher problems...

      The new launcher looks great and functions okay, but there's a few little problems I've run into. 1. Launcher not recognizing external Java installations. I was trying to get the launcher to recognize external Java installations, to see if I could get it to work with newer Java than the...

      Reduceing the size of turrets with weapon emitter blocks

      Most Starfleet ships of the Star Trek franchise (specifically TNG, DS9, VOY) basically don't have turrets at all, they use radially (and linearly) mounted phaser strips that are very hard (if not impossible) to replicate in SM, due to the fact that the strip can fire a beam (or even multiple...

      Bug New update problems

      Sounds like a pretty common problem, where the game refuses to load the chunks in. The usual work around is to exit game completely, clear your client cache (Main menu -> Tools & Mods -> clear client cache) and then log back in. This usually works for me, and you won't lose anything in-game...

      Push and pull beam pistols for astronauts

      Could be cool, of course using these with large objects, like big ships and stations (if beyond the scale of a few blocks, or stationary) would probably move the astronaut instead. Like you shoot a wall in the distance and the beam pulls the astronaut toward it faster than walking/floating. This...

      Faction Founder Tips

      Well, how about tips on handling newbies in a faction? Babysitting newbies is one of my least favorite things on a server, so it might be a good thing to have some guidelines on handling them in general. What would these be? 1. Ensure that the newbie has grasped the basics of the game, and if...

      Directional Shields (does NOT replace current shields)

      Nice work and interesting concepts, but I'm curious, why would the devs consider going with this and the other multi-block suggestions you've posted? Implementing these changes would add so many blocks in the game, and needlessly make building things more complex. More blocks with more options...

      Questions about server configuration

      Hmm, well, for localized resources, not all systems in an universe are on equal standing. Some systems already have more resources than others, while yet others are actually void systems, without much of anything then empty space. Therefore available resources usually depend on where the players...

      Fixed Downloaded Sments Have Random Names

      Well, you could always name the downloaded file as something else than the "random number string" it downloads as. My browser settings are configured to always ask where to save downloaded files, so I can do it before the download process actually starts.

      Dual Purpose Turrets

      Or maybe do this... - Build turret. - Dock an armor plate on it. - Dock AMS turrets / Single axis turrets on the armor plate. This is a kind of a compound turret here both the AMS turrets and the larger turret can have separate targets, because the armor plate makes the AMS turrets think that...

      Bug Planet bug (segment problem)

      This is exactly one of the reasons many servers discourage players from settling on planets. For many MP servers, settling on Stations is the preferred way, because it avoids planet-related problems and usually offers players better FPS and ping due to not being on an entity that the game has to...

      Need some advice

      Bobby AI is dumb, he can fly in a straight line(in fairly free space), aim and fire, that's about all he can do. Any other stuff like logic, jump drives and more complicated stuff, he cannot do... Any logic in those turrets has to be manually activated(via button/wireless tied to a ship remote...

      Bug Planet bug (segment problem)

      This seems to be a case of segment inversion, a bug that makes planet swallow whatever's on the plate. It usually causes a lot of lag because whatever build was on the plate starts to collide with the core of the planet and with the plates next to the affected plate. How's your FPS and Ping...

      It says I need to update my intel graphics card to play, but I don't have one.

      You always have a graphics card or a chip of some kind, otherwise you wouldn't have any picture on screen. Chances are that yours is an integrated Intel HD series chip embedded in the CPU, if you have no dedicated video card. The game is most probably prompting you to upgrade your graphics card...

      Planned More Rail Dockers: Ship, Turret, and Ship Part.

      These are already in-game, so there is no need to add them. They are accessed via the Navigation window by pressing the Nav Filter button. You get a dialog box with various checkboxes in it, among others, there are checkboxes for "Docked" and "Turrets". These can be used to enable and disable...

      StarMade v0.198.476 - The Trading System

      Any issues concerning FPS and ping are due to a bug in the game that causes server to flood error logs to clients, overloading and crashing them, the devs are aware of this and working on a possible solution. Nothing can be done client side to alleviate the problem, short of rolling back into...
