I think it's important to realize that Schine isn't selecting councilors based on their own opinions but on their capacity to represent the opinions of others. Having people elected based on their skills would allow Schine more vision into what THEY want, but might create another layer of...

You're a madman. Let's all try to appreciate that.

Big thanks to FlyingDebris for the avatar pic! Time to show off the true meaning of derp.

So more organized than the normal PvP servers but not as organized as faction wargames... Like Planetside 2 in Space? If that's so, it'd take a rather formidable amount of oomph behind the server to keep up with the missile swarming, planet eating, and drone launching that will likely go on...

I would recommend keeping careful thought over what replies you post in this thread. Just a friendly reminder.

With Stamrod's large scale and focus on efficiancy I'd imagine that it'd be easier to track and emit the total noise of the loaded star system instead of trying to track each individual object.

I'd also imagine that there could be game-play elements tied to EM radiation in such a way that one could use the white noise to determine how 'busy' a star system is. If there's a bunch of big heavily shielded ships moving through the system, odds are that they will be making quite a bit of...

If rails are capable of chain-railing like docks are capable of chain-docking I'm going to cry.

In accordance with http://starmadedock.net/threads/announcement-no-more-forum-drama.4936/ I am removing select posts and awarding a warning point to those who have contributed. Please try to keep these public forums a welcoming place for vets and newbloods alike.

Please be aware that in accordance with http://starmadedock.net/threads/announcement-no-more-forum-drama.4936/ Discussions and disagreements are alright but a personal attack on another member of the forums in a faction thread will merit immediate moderator action. You folks seem to be keeping...

8/10 for me. There's definitely some sore spots, but it's good to keep both positives and negatives in mind, especially when doing silly comparisons. People argue, people agree, people are mean, people are nice. Overall the percentage of people who positively contribute to Starmade is...

You've had a good run, for sure. May great Arstotzka be remembered forever. I'm locking this thread on OP request. If anyone wishes to talk about re-opening or whatnot, feel free to drop me a message.

Once you have an effect computer and the module blocks to go with it you can link those to a weapon system the very same way you can link other weapons to one.

Factions add a whole new twist to your Stamrod sessions. Having a group of like-minded folks to work with changes your maximum project size from "Wow, that's a nice cruiser." to "Yep, it's too big to spawn anymore. GG." Plus with factions on public servers you can get into wars and test out your...

The mini-shooper turrets were quite cute.

Stacking blocks into a group will increase the damage and energy consumption of the fired projectile based on the number of blocks in that group. Sometimes you'll want to have a single larger group and sometimes you'll want to have multiple smaller groups. Smaller groups hold the benefit of...

In my adventures I've found that it is possible to build a ship of nearly any size that is both beautiful and functional so long as you're not relying on massive amounts of open interior; more than 20% for a capital ship and a little more for smaller ones. Having lots of convex or raised...

If you're mining an entire asteroid in one salvo but spending more time going from one to the next then you may want to either stop increasing your vessel's mass or start increasing it's speed/maneuverability. That changes with planet mining where capital-sized miners excel, but then you're...

Yep. Each pulse that hits a block on your vessel disables your thrust and turning for 2 seconds. Getting a couple of rapid pulse drones real close to an enemy can really wreck their ability to retaliate.

I love the idea of 'radioactive damage' active as a sort of interference, maybe making hotbar icons look odd and messing up or even disabling IFF indicators and Nav markers.
