I'm confused. Why is this a bad thing?

Kind of like the Overworld and Nether in minecraft. Once in hyper-space, nothing has to be rendered in N-space. Just make Hyper a big empty nothing. Of course, you'll have to be careful returning to N-space, keep track of where those stars are...

Having looked at you redline image.... I apologize for threatening you with my dictionary. :p Something is wrong with your system. I count > 1 < misspelled word and it looks more like a simple typo. (wih == with)

I only use single module heatseekers. Shields can shrug them off and they don't do any real damage anyway. However, PD goes nuts with all those pretty targets and might miss the nukes. OTOH, Elspin, now you know your fleet is light on point defense.

If we can figure out the secondary spawn point issue, then having the ship blown up becomes less of a problem. And if my ship happens to be larger then most bases? Having a spawn on a capital ship would do wonders for carrier/capital ship combat. And what if I get killed during EVA? My ship is...

Possible variables to include in the s/j/c calculations. Power bleed - to much power stored in the batteries makes it easier for the scan to overpower the j/c (10k == 1% chance) Module counts - more s/j/c modules increase the power of the effect, not just it's charge time.

I'm not sure a 'good' 3^3 design is possible. This is the minimum size to fit the minimum blocks for a turret. My attempts are always ugly as sin and can't be used for anything more then point defense. 5^3 turrets aren't much better, but you can at least polish them a bit. After that, the...

Right now scanning/jamming/cloaking is an on/off thing. We need more variables. Like the scan decreases in accuracy with range, power bleed on the ship diminishes the cloak/jammer, comparison of module counts, and any number of other possibilities. None of this is in the game. Hopefully it...

The way I read the OP was more you had only two options. Not respawn anywhere you felt like whenever you felt like it. You spawn at your undeathinator or spawn and the initial server spawn. I would limit the second option to only if you had died X times in X minutes. If you are still being...

A directed push/pull effect would be nice. Maybe we can make some actual tractor beams. I haven't played with the grapple yet, but this would be more of a utility system. Directed thrusters would also work for the OP. Already done. I think these should be included in this. This would...

Ok, I've read thru this twice to be sure, but I don't think anyone has actually answered the right question. The answer is...your question is wrong. o_O The jump drive will jump you 8 sectors or to your waypoint, whichever is closer. You will always use full charge. You can not make a partial...

You need to add something in there for hatch's as well. And maybe a drone catagory.

From the Council Q&A thread

Cameras need love. Wedged Cameras Display Cameras

I'd like to suggest a much simpler solution. Scrolling simply ignores empty hot bars unless you have the Weapons Tab open. No need for check boxes and guis to manage them. Togglable via options, of course.

I tend to do this already. I make all my constructs from Grey Hull, white lights, and other generics. Then I just find/replace after spawning to customize it to the situation. Once the shipyard comes out, this should be even easier. While I agree with the idea, it just seems like polishing...

Definitely liking the idea of more cameras and camera control. Camera's need more love. I was trying to set up a docking camera last night and ended up stuck with a skewed vision because I couldn't rotate the camera properly. Rails, for example, have four orientations per side. Camera's have...

Depending on how you have it set up, I'd go through the top or bottom then, destroying your rotater. It would still take longer then normal, tho. I may steal this idea. ;)

I'm going to have to go for a combination of the two. Yes, dockers should act as cores, it just makes life simpler from a construction standpoint. But they should also be filterable and off by default. Possibly even show up with a different icon or something. This is important for both hatches...
