      Stifled building in the shadow of an impending update

      i can only make a guess based on what makes sense to me. i assume they have someone working on audio who cant help with other development like programming, and it can just be inserted as its finished.

      Why exactly is power broken?

      if it helps make my position about npcs being garbage more clear, we can always change 2 hoursup to "a day or 2," but that still highlights the fact that after the very beginning, theres no challenge at all from pve. scaling them up wont help either, because by the time a player gets good enough...

      Why exactly is power broken?

      easily done by someone who pays attention and learns quick, or joins an mp server and gets advice. i realize it may not be the norm, but its certainly not impossible. but your entire mining scenario is progression also. build bigger miner get more resources easier... only its too easy...hmm...

      Why exactly is power broken?

      while i get what you were going for there and that was just an example... you could solve new player mining rig yawnsies by just increasing the power salvagers take to fire... they draw so little you can be woefully inefficient and still fire a salvage array large enough to crash a server. you...

      We need to talk about the "right to travel in peace"

      after reading all this, im not really sure what the voting options really even mean... if this is to be player created, driven, and enforced. sounds great for rp purposes. but i highly doubt it would ever be "effective" based on the way the game environment operates.

      United logic block

      everything in here is opinion, so whats your point? yours is no more valid than his. in the long run i agree with you though, a space saving logic arrangement could be nice... but thats my opinion... and as far as wastes of time are considered... we could go nihilist and say EVERYTHING IS A...

      Build & Weapon Advice?

      my first thought when i read this was, "JinM must not know much about normal ships on earth's ocean." i kid, i kid... but 2 words: recoil slide.

      Build & Weapon Advice?

      all the above talk really depends on whether you want a strict adherence to your subject matter for rp, or an effective ship. a logic fired forward gun on a larger ship is a terrible idea from the perspective of usefulness in game, but itll certainly allow you to pack more damage into the weapon...

      Starmade just got 0wned...

      yeah unity lets people who know nothing build games, but i dont see that as a rpoblem. other people perceive unity to have issues just because the developer didnt know what they were doing... but this is only half true cause like someone said above unity DOES have mem management issues that are...

      Starmade just got 0wned...

      what about it? its a lot like unity, fine for stuff that isnt huge on memory... garbage collecting in it blows dicks and hangs and it has probs with casting and types. you can still "mostly" work around this if you care to and know how to. its hard. probably better to just use c lol

      Starmade just got 0wned...

      unity is crap at managing memory by default. a lot can be done to kinda work around this, but most unity developers either dont know or dont care, because theyre hobbyists.

      Can anyone explain Fleet Mining?

      let me be less facetious for people who need things super literal: fleet mining: it doesnt work very well, and isnt worth your time unless you really want to fight against poor implementation for role playing sake. claiming "it works" isnt really helping anyone who may be having trouble with...

      Build & Weapon Advice?

      i see what you did there, but ill give it a whirl anyway. dependso n the sector size, if you play large sector sizes, b/c/exp triple output self powered in the main stacks and c/c/od or b/c/od self powered in the small guns, make each main turret 2m e/s and eah small turret at least 1m e/s w...

      if youre confined to solo play against pirates, your idea of effective will be really easy to pull off with almost any weapon combos you like

      we need to talk about losing

      ah yes, i think there should be all sorts of economic balancing maintenance costs, sinks, etc. but i dont think those need to be mutually exclusive with incentives to win. of course for any of this to matter at all, the game has to be less full of broken mechanics and exploits that render any...

      we need to talk about losing

      agreed, but im not sure how thats relevant. they still include pvp, and still incentivize winning, and starmade still has a clear problem with pvp and player motivations that could be (partially) solved by incentivizing winning. im not sure how this clashes with any of your ideas though because...
