      Unknown Computer shutdown while playing StarMade

      My occupation is actually desktop support so I may be able to help you. As for the fix for my issue, I replaced the cheap fan/heatsink that came with my I7 CPU with an older version of this...

      Unknown Computer shutdown while playing StarMade

      What are your PC specs? Do you use Hardware Monitor or a similar program to keep an eye on you system temperature? I once had a CPU that would overheat and lockup my PC; especially when playing StarMade. Adding a large cooling fan got rid of the problem by cutting the temperature in half.

      New Planet Speculation Thread

      Even if it's not Schine's project, It's most likely real. It's been demonstrated that you can use turret axis blocks (and a fair amount of math skills) to make artificial multi-plate planets. Given that I've made a 400m+ artificial multi-sided spherical planet and SkylordLuke has made a...

      Ship anchoring for boarding

      Neon's talking about something totally different than what this thread is about. This is essentially a boarding/ship capture proposal. Neon's talking about instanced sectors. Unfortunately, that's not really related to this topic.

      Ship anchoring for boarding

      A friend and I once used "stealth missiles", torches and grapple beams to commandeer a capital ship that was attacking my base. Some clown was bullying less established players by visiting their bases and firing at anything that moved. He came to my base while some friends were...

      StarMade v0.201.126 - Weapon Update

      It's been a while since I worked on launch bays and torpedoes but I'll offer my most recent info. As of now, it is still possible to create unguided warhead weapons (although, I can't vouch for the effectiveness of Warheads in the current build). You must turn off thrust dampening and then...

      Add Stealth Chamber to hide Shield/Power/Faction

      Yes... YES!!! Must OBFUSCATE!!! Must... Hide!!! ...in plain sight!!! I think it would be awesome to have a stealth chamber upgrade that is usable on stations, planets and asteroids to obscure it's true nature and make it appear as something else. The chamber should be able to be set to...

      It's a smoothed out Icosahedron; a 20-sided polyhedron with "rounded" triangular faces. MConlisk, a good way to determine size of this planet is to... - Build a simple ship in the shape of a straight line and measure the diameter of the planet like a tape measure. - Build a core and use the...

      New Planet Speculation Thread

      My artificial planet is 400 meters in diameter (not counting city buildings). When I compare a picture of Shine's new planet next to mine and an old 550m(+/-) dodecahedron planet base I was working on, the new planet looks bigger, judging by the size of the individual blocks. My guess is it's...

      Planets and Stations

      Thanks. I was trying to wait for Schine's new icosahedron planets but it's been a year and a half and I really need my planet base fix. I was getting the jitters and cold sweats. Terraforming is a hell of a drug!

      ...Or as a base. Just keep in mind; radial gravity doesn't work right yet so you'll have to improvise.

      If you are unable or unwilling to replicate the effect, copy and paste can become your best friend. Visit planets and copy parts that interest you. You'd be surprised what you can come up with.

      Why not just build the plate or "something similar"?

      Technically, it's an icosahedron; a 20-sided polyhedron comprised of triangular faces. In any case, I am thoroughly impressed; the thing looks great. On the other hand, while these teasers are cool, it's been almost a year and a half since the original GIF was posted. If they keep dragging...

      Planned Another Planet Thread

      Not necessarily him specifically, but there are quite a few large builders out there. While tedious, if you used copy and paste with a powerful computer, you could replicate Schine's terrain-gen-tech given enough time. With that having been said, I doubt anyone has the patience for that...
