That's exactly the thing I think as well, when I build my ships. Putting system blocks anywhere on the ship isn't very meaningfull. It is in some way important where to put some blocks, but the sheer fact of scattering shield blocks at the outer part of the hull so they get destroyed first, is...

I should reconsider my building style, some other styles are so much easier to construct and still look good, than what I like to build. :D

Several Power Recharger Setups [Efficient & Usable)

You don't have to dictate yourself how or what to build. I suggested that you know what you at least want to achieve (aka one certain goal), at the start of the build. As it is your first ship, the goal of building any survival capable ship is ok man. My first bigger one was a fighter of only 40...

Nah I am not an expert on this, I didn't want to say you should design them different. There was a battleship with big or too high mounted guns in WW1 or 2 that couldn't fire them, because it would tipp over. But only one, that's why I thought of this. I think the design of yours is ok, I just...

Looks darn cool man. My 2 cents: The 3 main turrets are so big, that they would rotate the ship top into the water, if they were fired on a normal ship on earth's ocean from the broadside. ;) Yeah ofcourse we can talk now about recoil surpressing ammunition, but that's was just my first thought...

Ya anything goes, stick to it and be proud when you finished it. =)

Do you want something special? Allways build a ship with a certain purpose, or some certain goals. The purpose "a military flagship"/"a ship for survival" is not enough, be more precise about what that ship shall have. Be it a hangar of a certain size, or a certain type of turret - but build the...

But Unity is meant to make the life easier for small dev teams, isn't it? But I understand, that if a game wants to compete with Starmade, picking unity might then be (if it has so many flaws) a bottleneck when it comes to large scales - but I am not sure if Skywanderers advertised large scale...

Yeah I the same about the slab-to-wedge ones. Thanks for the replies guys. I went with this one now. It is a compromiss of looking good from afar and when you walk next to it. Some of the other designs all looked nice when you stand right in front of it, but when you looked from a bigger...

There are not many early access games around, that don't even have a 4 week release cycle (Minecraft in beta had 2 months inbetween???). I think it's very good that Shine now sticks to a longer period. I found it odd, that they dictated themself this 2 week release cycle anyway. I mean this...

Ok, I tried again. I don't know why I am so obsessed with this small detail, but somehow I wanna talk about it. =)

The landing gear's foot will all be the same, like the one you preffer (front starboard = right side of ship :D ): A bit wider than the shaft. I just forgot to put those extra blocks on the other placeholders. I agree, that the girders have a nice "machinery" texture, but somehow look weird as...

I made 4 different styles of a new landing gear for military corvette. I tend to the backmost portside one (one girder block on each foot and the rest is grey basic hull). My first favourite was the front portside one, with the continuous girders. But I they did not look so well, when I...

NeonSturm , what bugs me way more about FTP is the amazingly big updates, that come with every cosmetic new item. I rather pay 15€ once or per year, instead to suffer this never ending stream of advertising cosmetic bullshit I don't need and downloading 1GB updates every time they make a new...

Me too pls, buyed Starmade 2 years ago via Steam.

I like the idea to make complex cargo systems that can carry like 3 small container or 1 large, and have a flexible way to build cargo space on your ship. With this system any cargo space dimension can be one meter times the length of the smallest container. When I build a ship with this system...
