Mass of docked objects are already counted. In addition, mass is very easy to check on a ship-by-ship basis.

Already exists, in area and pressure form.

An option to connect weapons to ammo systems (so they don't take power). When the ammo is depleted, the weapon starts using power again.

The problem is getting an interface to do it simply and easily. I suspect that SMEdit will be able to implement this functionality (since it has dropdown menus and whatnot, but not the actual game.

I've also noticed that when you hold down the trigger on anything that doesn't reload almost instantly, it "dry fires," consuming the same amount of energy as if you had actually fired, but not actually shooting. Is this a bug or intended functionality?

showing up in build_20140603_17120 as well. When it happens and you are in the turret, yaw is reversed.

The problem is that you can't get enough power from power tanks to boost your overall power very far at small scales. If I want to have some sort of booster ring system like in star wars, in order to double the range I would need an unreasonably large vessel. I'm not saying that any fighter...

I think someone has built an actual RP version of it.

These are really cool. You might also want to do a process/tutorial video from the livestream as well.

And there's a problem with that? You need a beacon network to do that. Personal transport with the minimum amount of energy required. Also, cores can get by with no power. It wouldn't be a balancing factor. The FTL-only pool is for small ships to increase their range. Large ships would simply...

Erm, what if I am placing cannons with a computer connected and try to remove some extra?

Well, you could make a copy of the ship, then transfer over the docked vessels onto the actual ship.

The undo function should be a property of the client, which should note which blocks actually got placed/removed with each click.

Having a "dev kit" once the game is much further along, perhaps actual release, for actual modders would be a good idea. Letting the masses have the code now would be a horrible idea.

Definitely something to add later in the game.

I know I have already asked this before on this thread, but is there any other way to get to this help center besides this one link in a specific forum thread? If I am a confused newbie, I really would not be looking under website news to find a link to the help center. Right now you need to...

Wait, energy usage per second? Isn't the jump instantaneous? Shouldn't there be no intrinsic cooldown, only something regulated by the power demands required? Instead, the expander creates a pool of FTL-only energy that gets charged after the main ship power is full. The expander energy pool...

The decay factor basically determines how long you can step away before losing all of your hacking. 1 = step away for an instant and you lose all your hacking, 0 = no decay, you can come back anytime and finish it. numbers in between would give a limit on how long before a full reset.

Yeah, the entire point of preventing someone from walking in, just hacking the faction block, and getting access. You can still control the ship, but you need to still hack doors and everything. Also I suppose having a decay factor that you can set would mean that really, it could go either...

Except you can only remove the blocks once. As long as it takes long enough to claim it, BB'ing things to death isn't any faster or game-breaking than using a resonable-sized salvager.
