      Biological components please!

      You missed the part where the bio reactor was inherently tied into a system of self-regenerative armor & components. It's not an issue of two systems that do the same thing. Like I said in the OP - this is something that would fit in best post-alpha. I don't think you disagree with this...

      Biological components please!

      I completely get where you're coming from, but I'm not thinking about something that needs to happen soon, this is more of a long-term thing. Do you really foresee SM never expanding the scope of its shipbuilding potentials? Just eternally the same basic systems we currently have? They're great...

      Astronaut assault weapons

      Add to that list astronaut armor, astronaut heavy assault armor and a high-speed jet pack.:D

      Biological components please!

      Looking at a suggestion thread about regenerative hull blocks made me think about how nice it would be to have regenerating organic tissues... And bone for armor/bulkheads (slow regeneration; armor between hull & standard)... And chitin armor (V. Slow regen; armor between standard &...

      Forcefield regeneration

      If we're going to do regenerative hulls (finally!), I'd far rather see chitin/tissue than yet another form of synthetic shield/armor. Maybe that's just me :-D

      StarMade v0.199.132 - Huge performance upgrade for chunks, also now supporting Portuguese-Brazilian

      I'll try to reinstall shortly and see if that fixes it. I have no indication as to what is causing it, but I do import/export BPs fairly regularly and maybe it's being caused by a problem with the blueprints.

      StarMade v0.199.132 - Huge performance upgrade for chunks, also now supporting Portuguese-Brazilian

      So... since applying this update, every time I attempt to launch the CATALOG MANAGER from the main menu, it crashes my client and makes me sad. Did a full system reset but no dice - it's broken.

      Server Review Of My Experience On A Servers "Shatteried Skies"

      Yeah... because at least one of the owners to whom you were appealing is an alt of that little troll clan. It became super obvious. You and like 50 other well-known people talked to them about the problem and they gave zero shits, never bothered to log on an alt and simply watch what was...

      Planned Lower refined material volume.

      *EDIT* Sorry - I tried responding to this from a phone and it wouldn't let me type anything. Didn't realize it posted a random blank reply. o_O So anyway... :D These aren't apples though, Holy. So if you're going to invoke Logic, I think we should stick with the subject matter. Because...

      Planned Lower refined material volume.

      Refined ores/minerals are definitely a little more massive than raw. I assumed that was deliberate on the basis that separating something into it's component parts requires a bit more space.

      Thanks for...

      shop/trade improvements! I've been very loudly wailing about how broken trade was for... years, and just thought I should say that the new trade system is great improvement. Not only that, but they set player shops to start with all prices effectively at zero so that people can't empty your...

      Classify this ship!

      Looks like a very nice Light Frigate, but without knowing about its power statistics & HP levels I couldn't really say. I could definitely see classing ships based on crew levels, but calling something a "battleship" simply because it's crewed by 500 people isn't actually helpful since...

      Faction Founder Tips

      Same, and yet it's one of the most common and time consuming chores every faction leader/officer deals with if they're serving more than a few players they already know. I'll add: 6. Delegate! When you get a very raw noob, PM some of your more established low-ranking members and find someone...

      Faction Founder Tips

      Anyone want to share their general experiences gained from running factions about important features, rules, etc in Starmade multiplayer? Obviously play style determines a lot, but there are some common things. Personally, I never allow anyone else to edit the faction homebase, to prevent...

      Planned Better Server Info

      I would very much love to see servers be allowed to post a substantial amount of text to be displayed in the information section when browsing online play options. It would be nice to see the server guidelines, unique rules and other stuff up front before ever wasting time joining then finding...

      Suggested chairs and beds as Item blocks

      Hmm... what might work nicely could be actually if chairs occupied a 2x2x2 or 3x3x3 placement area once deployed, but within that cube of blocks, most of it would be empty air with the item of furniture in the middle (sort of the way a pipe or slab doesn't occupy an entire 1x1x1 area). This...

      Suggested chairs and beds as Item blocks

      I saw that. I wasn't commenting on the appearance of your chair - it totally conveys your meaning. As I noted - people have been asking for chairs... for years. I only meant that if we ever eventually get them, I'd rather the developers not restrict themselves to something that only occupies 1...
