      Astronaut spacesuits, weapons, built from blocks

      I can see reasons for both the skin going over a customized suit or the blocks showing through. Perhapse if the blockspace was limited to your "backpack", wristcomp, and a specific part of the helmet both would be viable.

      Debris Cracks Glass (plextanium)

      I'm just going to point out that you are asking for collision damage...the game HAS collision damage. Turn t on in your single player in the config files to check it out. Most servers don't have it though, because they are afraid of bad driving.

      Astronaut spacesuits, weapons, built from blocks

      I think it would be interesting if we could build our space suits, helmets, and personal weapons out of blocks. each "base" kit would be like the current helmet, or hand cannon. Right clicking the item would open up it's "customization screen" a 2d grid of available blockspace. This grid is...

      ...did...did you just put heat-seeking missiles(D1000/D1000/whatever) on a trade-guild station? If so, that's a deliciously evil troll. I can just see the red squares with "so-and-so has declared war on the Trading guild!" scrolling across my screen...

      I would only agree with this once he makes a sane updater. we don't need to download every bloody file every update. He needs a version-key with changes so we can just download the files that have been changed. (of course keeping a complete install available too ;) )

      http://starmadedock.net/content/derelict-repair-depot.867/ V0.8 released. Mostly interior work, setting the theme of it being an addled old bird. The hardest thing about having a small interior is to try and keep it interesting without being way too cluttered. I've installed some trick-gravity...

      What happened to box dimension bonuses for power regen?

      First off, I'm not trying to pick a fight, merely to express a viewpoint. I hope you understand that. I'm a big fan of wing commander, Privateer, and freespace. Glad you are/were too. Also the starseige series, Star Trek Online, and Various star wars games...EVE is aother one but I'm not a fan...

      look in blueprints/exported/the name you specified with "/save mystationname" Quite wrong bro. "/load mySavedStation myIngameStationName" is how you import a .sment file. Sector saves are for when the positioning REALLY matters, like a station wrapped around a shop, or a Dyson sphere.

      You should also build with the default texture packs and flip-flop between them, that custom hull pack might end up making it look one way to YOU while making a completely different effect for vanilla players (and this is a vanilla contest, right?)

      What happened to box dimension bonuses for power regen?

      I think I understand where you're coming from on the learning curves, and I can even get behind it to a degree (the difference in efficiency should not be so high, perhaps 20-50% difference instead of the whopping 400% a "good build" will give you). But I must completely disagree that I'm "only...

      Guided D1000 combo

      You have the "D1000 + Damage Pulse" and "D1000 + Damage Beam" effects mixed up bro. :)

      What happened to box dimension bonuses for power regen?

      I see your point sage, but must respectfully disagree. Having the most basic system, as you put it, being a deep and rich area of exploration is what kept my interest in this game long enough for me to actually WANT to learn about other things. When thrusters switched to box-dim (another and...

      eh, "moneybomb" will by it's nature flood the economy and stabilize. Prime example is regular grey and regular black hull right now.

      What happened to box dimension bonuses for power regen?

      The question I have is if you and they had FUN discovering the "right way" to make power. I'm in a related conversation with a fellow player over skype (who HATES forums) and this is what he has to say: Thought this would go well here.

      Logic, crystal timers, and fixing bootstrapping.

      As no doubt many people who mess with logic have found out, getting a good clock running (or worse, a DOZEN of them) on spawn-from-catalog is a P.I.T.A. The most basic timer is a [repeat] and a [not] cross-linked, then "booted up" with a press of R on one block. all fine and dandy that, unless...

      What happened to box dimension bonuses for power regen?

      In short: There are a LOT of space-sims, there are a LOT of builder games, I would prefer this one doesn't become a cookie-cut boredom "facebook game" by dumbing down complex mechanics to a point where "everyone gets cloth/chain/plate armor" and "Levels scale in battle arenas". I THINK warsong...

      AFAIK, Bobby is in a holding pattern with SMedit while the devs are mass-producing new blocks. You can drop by the lazygamerz vent or post on our forums to touch base with him about it. It would probably be easier to submit it as a "station" in name and get the devs to swap out the ship core for...
