Not really, ever since they upped the asteroid size after the chunk update, I can get roughly the same amount of ore from an asteroid sector as I could an entire planetary plate. I actually have a waypoint bookmarked for my home sector named "Fertikeen Sector" because it has three nice big...

If its a ship that big that the drones can't do enough damage without shields in the way, that would be the point the other side starts boarding to take the ship whole. People whine that boarding is too hard and that there is no reason to, this would seem to fix that to some degree as well. If...

When I build big, I usually go for just a double layer main hull, and then individually have bulkheads around important areas. So once you're through the main hull, you might get some thrusters and shields, but the reactors and weapons are encased in another layer or two of armor deeper in...

I'd say keep the FP off the table for remote drones. The idea is to make people WANT to get out in situations where they know they're going to get blown out of the sky, and still enjoy doing it anyway. FP loss negates that entirely, I think. If a player in a carrier letting the AI do the work...

Could be just as good. Can still calculate reload time for power up effects using a straight timer.

There are two big problems I see with Starmade combat at the current time. 1) Not enough players to fully man entire fleets. 2) No one wants to man a fighter when they could man a cruiser or a titan. So we get lots of big ships, but at least fleets are helping to bring the small fighters back...

Something people have been asking for for a while now, and the sensor logic block looks tailor made for it, kinda surprised it wasn't included in the original release. I'd like to see weapon computer status added to what the sensor block can probe. I'd like to see the % cooldown remaining be...

Definitely looks like a bug to me. At least I would have expected cargo space to act like factory enhancers, only assignable to one storage block at a time. If its not a bug in sharing cargo blocks, its definitely a bug that each chest is getting phantom space instead of sharing the single...

Ah, I misunderstood then, my bad. I was under the impression that each individual battery had to be manually activated. Haven't messed with multiples yet due to that idea. Good to know.

Must have pretty explosions! But seriously, that was one of the biggest gripes I've had over things like missiles, the blocks pretty much just vanish in neat little holes with nothing to really show for it. I'd love to light somebody up with this and revel in the carnage!

Imagine the rock concerts we could make! A rail platform moves Dave up onto the stage, and as he's coming up area sensors trigger red white and blue flames to go off, it'd rock hardcore!

New thruster plumes are awesome, I want to use them as decorative blocks in places (like on my station). Thing is, they only flare up when actively being used, you drop one on a station and it just sits there inert. Could we possibly make it so that you can slave a thruster to an activator and...

Well simple matter is I'm sure we can sum it up with "Slab/wedge/tetra/etc all the things!".

Depends. I can throw together a 100m salvager and have it functional in 10-15 minutes. Or it could take me 2 weeks. It depends on if I'm trying to make it pretty or not.

Yeah, that was my point. They're still powerful if you basically set them off inside the hull where all that power and radiation can actually be absorbed efficiently. Out in space though, most of the initial detonation is going to radiate away into open space and be lost. Most of what is left...

Actually, nuclear warheads are crap in space. Virtually all of their destructive power comes from being in an atmosphere where the radiation they cause creates a blast wave. In space, no atmosphere means no blast wave means a nuclear bomb is nothing but an EMP weapon with some radiation.

Likely a bug, but something I noticed the other day. I was writing on the side of the ship in 1/4 slabs. Did a copy of it, went to the other side of the ship and rotated it around so that it would still be readable (instead of being mirrored), and the slabs did not rotate with the rest. I...

I'd still think it would be easier to simply save the design of the base unmodified ship and designs of all the modules so that you could load them in piecemeal. Then when you get a design you like, save that off as a finished ship.

:D
