Cannons are just too fast mate. I'm not even joking, they fly at 10x server speed by default, and on some servers it's almost impossible to even register seeing a shot. I once had someone firing at it, and it just looked like a flashing light. (Movies also use a lot of motion blur for fast...

I'd rather the current system, so that Person A with a large following can't snag extra seats. The idea of parties is an interesting one, it could work in certain contexts, but like real life, I fear the danger of them. In real life, an elected member of Party A must always agree with the...

Like direct screenshots and quotes? That could be potentially dangerous in the sense of taking stuff out of context, with the real context being hidden by NDA. I'm also against any form of public voting or anything for it, as this could be really dangerous when dealing with popularity. You can...

Wait, I thought this was a suggestion for a deco block? Why are people trying to throw around values and ideas to make it a type of hull?

The update allows for turrets and ships that are already docked to the old modules to stay docked and work. Updating the turrets to the new system is just another thing to add to the list of things stations need. Right up their with loot for pirate and defenses\shop modules for trading.

Threw your name on the whitelist. Would recommend adding a picture of work eventually though. On a build server, people would be interested in seeing your design style after all.

And what election system do you propose for the parties for the election system? Something like this would be good for advanced faction politics on a server someday, or maybe some union for servers or something, but it would not work in this instance.

It's actually a really good idea for large ships that might want a switch on the main bridge to open the hanger door without having to use a dozen activators to chain-link the bridge and door together to avoid crossing through the interior.

Try downloading it from the site and installing. Steam sometimes causes errors just by being steam.

In that case, have you tried a fresh install? Sometimes there are problems when you update from an older version. Installing to a new location might help.

As in a server clock? I could agree with that, would help people figure out when server resets/events are without playing with timezones.

Is it all blocks or just some (and which ones)?

First Past the Post. Everyone gets 1 vote, and the persons with the highest votes win. Most broken system of all. So for OP; Something like this system? I don't think we could even attempt to use the system; we have no parties, we cant use a system like that.

If you check the Web/Community News section of the forums, Bench will sometimes post an update to current Dev activities. Right now though, most of their work is in the Dev build, which is actively being played and tested by a lot of players, so I'm not sure what they would have to comment on...

Well, you were trying to make a BP editor thing at once point iirc. Wouldn't be too hard to make said program also count blocks and give a price in Blocks/Ores/Credits? :d /RollsAway

Well, you can go and check the price table (found on the 2nd launcher screen, under modding > Block editor > Price Table tab) for credits. Base price in ores? I don't think there is a way to easily check that. Maybe someone can make a small program that does that someday. *coughMegacough*

No seriously, there is nothing more annoying than having to cycle back and forth between pages/tabs to compare item descriptions/stats. Tool tips might work, if they can be kept simple, none of that "hover over and get a wall of text" stuff. Part of why the current system is so workable is that...

Blocks within blocks was the first suggestion to ever be formally rejected by the new-ish suggestion tagging system. The game would either have to track all of the blocks inside the block at all times, or would lead to some form of ship meta data storing the stats for the block. It just seems...

Is this suggesting new blocks? Or micro-block system (blocks within blocks)? I can't really tell at first glance, but if it's the latter it's a hearty no for performance reasons. It seems that instead of the linear 2 way tweaking system that we have now, you are suggesting a 3-way system? A lot...

Block HP is capped at 255. Just something to consider, as making the HP any higher would result in a larger block size, which means more lag.
