      Why power reactor module formula is not something like the power capacitor formula ?

      I did test it while writing this: 7 reactors in a straight line: 923.9 e/s 7 reactors in a 2d L: 923.9 e/s 7 reactors in a 3d L: 923.9 e/s

      Why power reactor module formula is not something like the power capacitor formula ?

      It doesn't matter if you have 1000 blocks in a line or a 2d or even 3d L or cross shape, the power output is always the same. You don't even save one block (yes GRHayes, test it in-game). This means that if your ship is too small to fit a single long line of reactor blocks, L/cross shapes are of...

      The ultimate drone R&D thread

      Activating the drone's docking beam via remote control should make redocking easier. Edit: If rail dockers could be activated via logic at all. :(

      If you want to play RPS why do you build space ships in a video game? Don't you have fingers?

      Every good ship would be a high alpha ship. It would usually be more shield capacity (to survive the insane alpha damage dished out by everyone and their mom) AND more power capacity, but with fewer blocks.

      This would make offensive overdrive manadatory. Also, because power drain and EMP weapons would be A LOT more effective no sane ship builder would rely on capacity alone and risk getting rock-paper-scissors'ed, which they don't have to anyway, since having high capacity AND high regen wouldn't...

      Already added this to my suggestion, but not sure if it will be read as it's already too buried: According to the wiki each consecutive thruster module adds less thrust than the previous one. As long as all thrusters from all entities are put into a single pool (as it is now apparently) it...

      Brainstorm This Perfect turning system - no half-assed solution

      Turn rate still seems to be a fixed value, so angular acceleration isn't in, yet. Regarding the inertia tensor itself I'm not sure, I asked but didn't receive an answer.

      Logic and its Relationship to Doors

      Hangar doors lose shield protection at 25%, and the loss of a single block, either rail docker or rail, lets the whole door fly off or leads to a collision lagfest.

      Transferring power is not the same as reconstructing the thrusters.

      No, ideally there would be additional sliders/arrows for color and shape like there is for orientation/slabs. We could just produce grey cubes instead of having to make and to carry around 50 different blocks types. The paint tool would only be needed for corrections, pixel art or adapting a...

      Add Ship Velocity to Projectiles/DPS

      Current maximum speed with overdrive is 4.5 times max server speed, cannon projectiles with damage beam slave have 25 speed. So in the most extreme case the increase in speed would be not more than 18%.

      Add Ship Velocity to Projectiles/DPS

      There was a similar (but different) config option, but I couldn't find it anymore, no idea if it's still there. But as far as I know it was merely about modifying a projectile's direction, not its speed, damage nor range.

      I'm sure SzaboMartonD isn't a troll, just a veteran player who is pissed by reasons that seem valid to him. Criss' post explains a lot and is very well worded, making me jealous of his diplomatic skill.
