      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      Ok so we know disintegrators suck against blocks since they do not scale, but they do *that* much damage for just one block? That means a dis-core-dis shrapnel shot deals 80k shield alpha damage. That means, I need a gigantonormous capital shotgun now. With damage pulse supported by beam and...

      Pirate station missiles

      I think missiles that are launched in a different sector than you are in will be invisible to you, so especially the super long range missile/beam combination is prone to wipe out targets without a warning.

      Current Weapon Balance: Shields vs Hull

      Considering you can craft basic hull from nothing but alloy/composite, which basically just requires you to mine "anything", and it is almost just as effective in battle as advanced armor, which requires you to get absolute *heaps* of nacht... yes, something has to be done in the long run.

      SCF "Rotanev" Permacloaking Jumpship Rev. 1

      NOTE: On slightly laggy servers you need to add additional power capacity. This should be doable within the mass reserves.

      Starting a faction

      In any case, if you want to kickoff a brand new faction, you need to do the grindy work alone first (or with whoever you start the faction with) and create a functional base with enough resources in stock. An unknown new faction's name and general idea is unlikely to attract anyone by itself...

      Yes, yes it does :D Mine while you watch netflix or something. This is the future.

      The assault upgrade was also meant to bring the procyon closer to the larger planned ships in design. Fleet coherence is worth the effort :) Also, this automated little fellow:

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      Stealthy AI won't happen, or else we droniacs will make entire galaxies uninhabitable when a weapons test goes wrong :p BTW Gerion , if you are content to ditch the swarm and instead go for a larger "drone", it works like magic. I use these guys here (the SCF Mercer-B mining platform). They...

      Zero mass, cosmetic hull

      GeneralEagleEye you forgot thrust :D the most important one by far.

      Docking Rail and AI ideas.

      They are not, a credible source in chat said the GUI update will be first, and the docking will be a separate update with no ETA. The source is more credible than me though, because I forgot the name and thus cannot cite it.

      Zero mass, cosmetic hull

      basic hull should fill that role. There is no need for a 50hp armor, everyone who wants armor at least uses standard. Basic hull is usually to have cost-efficient plating for decoration and interior purposes and would ideally be zero mass, zero resistance.

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      Ye the thing about starmade is that hybrid things don't work all that well. Have a dedicated rack/container/pod/bomb with drones which only has the function of holding these, and put it either on a dedicated carrier or as support on a larger ship (drones are an acceptable replacement for a part...

      Updates! First of all, the procyon is now an assault frigate: Also, some updates on the battlecruiser (still an early WIP).

      SCF "Procyon" Assault Frigate - Revision 5 - The assault update!

      - Further reduced initial blueprint complexity: no brown hull, usage of black standard + grey basic hull. - Increased the size of ALL weapon systems to at least double of what was there previously. Also changed the beam/pulse/ion to a long-range shield buster, and the overdrive swarmers to less...

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      ASM with assault containers, do you mean like "throwaway carrier modules"? e.g., a ship consisting almost entirely of docked assault containers, which contain drones. The ship would undock the container and immediately jump away. Then each assault container would just undock everything without...
