...YES. :ayylmao: :morewink: :neko: Being a 3D animation grad, I've already made a few custom skins but given the chance, I'd also like to be able to make my own character and equipment models then load them into the game. There's nothing like building a custom asset, whipping out a can...

I now understand your intentions. Personally, I'd like to see both a guided and unguided version but your idea does have its perks. Regarding spread angle and the appropriate situations for each; perhaps some real life ballistics data will help you decide. Below are the effects of different...

Hey, no fair! Those last few are exterior viewed from the interior! All joking aside; that looks pretty cool.

Auto aiming? Now that's a different story. I like the concept but I see a slight issue with it. Since you are limited to the auto aiming mechanic, there's no way to saturate a specific area of a larger target. Given the choice, I'd prefer to be the one who controls where the spread hits...

How's it going sayerulz? Wait... did you of all people really just ask me that? Let me put this another way... ;) But in all seriousness; if the weapon is being proposed as an anti-drone/anti-missile system that's one thing but this format does not match the catch-all that it is being...

Overall, It's not a bad idea. It's actually very intriguing. I just think a shotgun that can be modified to fire wide patterns, focused and everything in between would be more likely to meet all players' needs. Regarding anti-missiles: You said in your original post that this weapon would...

Interesting concept. I'm not opposed but I'm not yet convinced we need another seeker weapon; especially a shotgun. Regarding random blocks; this method of balance will negates the point of having an aim-able multi-projectile weapon. A weapon that is in-precise by design, intentionally...

I'm going to take a much closer look at this when I have more free time. Looks good so far.

I've heard this as well. Unfortunately, multi-player servers need to process the CPU information from everything that every player sees and does. Considering how most players like to build, and considering that most StarMade "servers" are either the technical equivalent of top tier gaming...

To clarify, it's actually the amount of overlapping bounding boxes combined with the cumulative effect of multiple structure faces. The overall size of an assembly does have an impact on lag but there's more to it than that; as I have made multiple server breaking builds under 100m long and...

I like this thread. Rather than let it die out, I'll offer a few of my ideas. Sentry gun: A small stationary robotic NPC unit that can be armed with a personal weapon (sniper rifle, rocket Launcher, laser pistol, healing beam, etc.) then placed on any ship, station, planet or asteroid...

To be even more fair, Keen Software House; the creators of space engineers have their own custom-built game engine and +/-50 employees. Given their comparison with similar titles, I think StarMade has done very well (development-wise) for a small indie game. To be honest, I think that's part...

Good lord... YOU are officially my gold standard for interiors. When this power update finally comes, I have a lot of work to do...

Did they ever fix the explosive effect radius for cannons and beams?

Those stats for the MOB were kinda grainy; even at 720p. Do we know the size/stats of either of those ships?

It can be a pain to kill drones quickly with beams and cannons; hence why swarmers are a recurring idea. Here's something I cooked up a while back, that works like swarms; only smarter. It works very well for me. Composite missile turrets. 360 degree rotation with 180 elevation or better...

Type-6 Pathfinders are already very heavily shielded for their size. There is literally no more room for additional shields, passives or weapons without a complete teardown and rebuild. When the power update is released, I'm definitely doing a few refits but it's kind of a moot point until...

I've tried it but I found that strategy ineffective for ships in my preferred size class. I've seen physically larger ships of the same mass pull it off, due to having a higher volume of internal space. They were very tanky, but they had almost no armor. Most of my ships are equipped to...

I think a lot of us use some sort of template for walls/hull for larger areas. It makes decorating a little less tedious. In my case, I don't typically texture my interiors. Most of my "tiles" are for the windows of my buildings, cities, ships and stations. I also use tiling and templates...
