Nope, its still a million as of the last time I built a station a month or two ago. However the price is something that can be set on a server by server basis, so its entirely possible your server simply decided to help the newbs out. Not really, no. Its absurdly easy to cut out a pirate...

Yeah, if there are multiple targets painted, the turrets/swarmers would divide attention between the available targets as they do now.

I've used this exact setup on my ships and stations for ages, and they've been completely reliable for me. At least after I learned to put the space between the triggers and the doors themselves so that you're 100% out of the door before it tries to close it. Long as you prime the logic and...

Problem with the derelict stations you find is that they are decayed. Any block you put down on them also becomes decayed, so you can never take anything off of them without it turning into scrap. However, you can abuse them. To make the station usable, you have to pay credits to repair it...

Here's mine: Example Low Profile PDT I make mine look like rivets or generic decorative hull bumps to hide them. That way I can make an "armor plate" section, and put PDTs all the way around the edges to look like rivets/bolts "holding the plate down" without making it obvious that the entire...

Quick and Easy Picture Tutorial: Automatic Doors I'm thinking next will be how to build elevators. Going to be a little while on that one though, as I'm currently doing these as I build them into my current carrier titan (aka, I need to get to where I need an elevator in my build before I can...

Little things can turn "Meh" sections of your ship into "Wow" sections without a great deal of effort, so I thought I'd make a quick and easy tutorial on how to do some of them. Today's Tutorial: Automatic Doors Anyone can slap some plex doors down on their ship or station and call it good...

Little things can turn "Meh" sections of your ship into "Wow" sections without a great deal of effort, so I thought I'd make a quick and easy tutorial on how to do some of them. Today's Tutorial: Door Labels In larger ships/stations, it can be difficult to navigate around without getting lost...

Heh, you mean... timing and strategy would be important instead of just "who has the biggest guns and the itchiest trigger finger?" Inconceivable! ;)

The reason they aren't OP due to them hitting everything is because they are a one click fire and forget. You click fire, they shoot off and automatically hit everything. If you have to stop and paint targets first, then you aren't on a "one click to win" button anymore, you've got more akin...

No, totally still objects cause no server lag. That quietly docked titan doesn't hurt the server in any way... until it undocks. The biggest sources of lag that I've seen are: 1) Collision Checks Any time the server has to check to see if two things hit each other, especially two really big...

Not just the anime, the actual Yamato was and is a cultural icon in Japan. The Yamato (and her sister ship the Musashi) were the greatest, most powerful battleships Japan ever created. Specifically designed to tip the balance back in their favor against the much more numerous American/Allied...

First half, restricted space. A sector or even an entire system that you can designate as being Restricted, which will fire on anyone other than your own faction that enters it. Similar to being hostile to neutral, only it affects everyone, but only in that one designated space. And then set...

Or perhaps anything dumbfire has 100% accuracy on a painted target? Cannon fire, dumbfire missiles, etc. Basically if you've painted the target, you can't miss it. Long as it's in range, you're golden. Would need to keep it from being too easily abuse, maybe give it a long lock on time, and...

Was going through some clips of things, and ran into this: Its from the live action Space Battleship Yamato, but pay specific attention to what the fighters are doing (aside from just fighting). They're painting targets. For those that don't know, "painting a target" is a military term...

Its called the Yamato.

I brought this up in Suggestions a while back, I still think its got some good ideas in it: Recognized - Exploration/System Bonuses and Actual Empire Building Basically, we need luxuries or other rare resources that aren't strictly required for building blocks that people will still want, that...

Yeah, the problem there is gravity. It currently affects single astronauts, not the environment as a whole. You can turn off your gravity and the guy next to you is still stuck to the floor. Which way should the lava flow? We need environment wide gravity first for that to really happen.

Oh, and a master fleet control via the faction home/capital ship. As in, a single location where someone can give commands to every fleet they own, even if they aren't in the specified command ship. Would be similar to wings, only someone can be sitting in the home base directing general...
