      Starmade original music collaboration?

      Orchestral music, such as the soundtracks for Star Wars and Star Trek, are easy to tailor to a wide variety of moods, settings, and demographics. I sort of feel like they are a nice 'standard' for sci-fi for the exact same reason they're a nice standard for many other action-oriented genres...

      Ship Building Techniques and Tricks, Post them Here!!!!

      Smaller spacecraft are very hard for me to do; trying to achieve both good aesthetics and a balanced hull/systems ratio without adding 20-2,000 meters to any dimension takes an eye for design that I don't often have.

      The debris in the new dev build are so EPIC!!!!

      ...Change the lifetime of debris? Wow, I guess I'm going to have fun being a litterbug in space!

      What's most important to you when designing a ship?

      If I actively try to create a design out of thin air... Well, it doesn't really work out. I always use some sort of inspiration to get things started out, something that I see and say 'Woah, that looks freaking awesome, let's use it!' About five minutes into the design I begin thinking something...

      The debris in the new dev build are so EPIC!!!!

      I remember playing Star Wars: Empire at War and (mind you, this was a while ago) gawking at how a damaged starship would leave a trail of particle effects behind it, like a wounded animal... Needless to say, this new feature brings some of those memories back and I can't wait for...

      Basic questions from an aspiring StarMade N00B

      I don't have the first-hand experience to answer your first question, but with the addition of copy/paste and variable max advanced build mode sizes Starmade's advanced build mode has come a long way towards matching schematics editors in use. To answer your second question... I think it's the...

      The Calderon Republic needs you!

      Incap, TwoNiner, you are both well aware of how to behave on the public Starmade forums and I have already given warnings that should this continue, consequences will be hashed out to the involved parties. I am attributing a warning point to both of you. In the future, please refrain from...

      running worse than before

      Letting us know what hardware you're trying to run Starmade on will help us a ton. We can try to solve issues and ensure that they don't pop up again. The new graphics are indeed a big upgrade to the game, but like most upgrades, they come with slightly increased loads on your comp's hardware...

      Steam Greenlight?

      Starmade has already been greenlit a looooong while ago. Schema is currently biding his time like an evil cat mastermind until the game has enough basic player retention so that more than 25% of the people who try it out will stick with Starmade for the long term. Rest assured that Steam is a...

      Dupe Glitch

      Thanks for the report! I'll move this for you.

      The Tartaran Empire - Recruiting

      I'm going to stop you folks right here before anyone makes any more mistakes. Please take this matter to a more private venue or maintain some semblance of civility about it.

      Is this game dead?

      For the curious, here's the video in question:

      Damage Beams Won't Fire

      And also how hard to see at first.

      Damage Beams Won't Fire

      Before we report anything go into your StarMade folder and open the file named settings.cfg. Look for the line that says G_DRAW_BEAMS = and make sure that it says 'true' and not anything else. If it's set to false no beams will show up visibly, weapon or otherwise.

      Reason for having an interior

      It's actually a combination of the two. I seem to recall dimensions having more weight than mass, but don't take that as final. Just a fuzzy memory.

      What Creatures/Aliens and other life forms would you like to see?

      I'm especially interested in seeing how a modular NPC/creature system ties in to the rest of the game's features. Simply having them be there would be rather... Plain and shallow of a feature with such powerful potential to change the game. Minecraft, to name a rather obnoxious example, does a...

      More advanced progress on weapons design

      I can definitely see the appeal of a... Not only complex but also deep and meaningful system for the implementation and customization of weapons. As unremarkable as my opinion may be, I think it might not be a good idea to have it as part of the base game. Starmade features an extremely wide...

      Beams and other weapon types are ineffective

      The damage from beams shouldn't be relying on sticking to one block and then ticking. How they work mechanically is that you fire them, they tick a couple of time during their burst, dealing damage to whatever the beam is currently touching, and then start a cool down period before their next...

      Adding ship-types

      I like what you're trying to do here and the ideas behind the classification system, but I'm thinking that there's a couple of problems created by the system's interaction with the game not being along the same lines as the player's interaction with the game. It's like having three people in a...

      Starmade V0.158

      Undo. With that one button, so many lives have been saved... Schema, I don't think you realize the immense gravity of you putting that in the game. Now, humanity finally has an answer to it's age old enemy... The 'WTF did I just right-click?!?'
