Mechasquitos? Or biological giant mosquitos? I think a mix of both would be fun. As for inhibiting the infection? Weapons, big heavy weapons. (Finally, a use for detonators! Talk about bug-bombs!) but then again, some sort of inhibitor would be good for farming the beasties.

I would recommend not turning it off completely, but make it so that it doesn't register a collision at less than, say, half the server's maximum speed. That way, you won't inspire people covering their ships completely in rails to make their ships impervious to your torpedoes.

I don't think he is concerned with transparency. I think slab storage is the problem.

This sounds like a great idea for a plant-based NPC, and even a whole faction of plant NPCs. One of my all-time favorite mods for Quake 2 was "Bang!". http://old.r1ch.net/q2/bang/ Why? My favorite grenade in the mod is the Infest grenade. Throw one of these puppies at a boss and come back 10...

Laughing as I type this, I agree, so I think custom sounds requested by the playerbase probably need to be implemented by the admin, so that desired sounds match the admin's "vision" for the server, just like Tobie suggested in post #2. Absurdity-friendly servers can still have their bizarre...

The devs are going to eventually replace time-based docking cool-down with distance "cool-down" (have to be a certain small distance away before trying to mag-dock again). This would be an easy extension of that logic. I'm hoping this will work right with extendable docking arms, so you push...

How about place a storage block, and then when slaved to the master storage block, it transforms into a full-size cargo block (random texture), ready to accept cargo? No new blocks required, and it kind-of makes sense, so it wouldn't be too hard for new players to figure out.

Discord doesn't yet have a Linux client. How can they have a Mac version without a Linux version? (Rhetorical question.)

Looks like Planet Genesis to me. Scene Summary: http://fanon.wikia.com/wiki/Genesis_Planet_Forbidden

I can't get any new players excited about StarMade. They keep returning back to RoboCraft for their build-and-fight fix. And generally people are lazy, so they aren't all that interested in spending a lot of timing building their own stuff. They generally want to be given something pretty easily...

Building ventilation ducts big enough to crawl through?? This is a direct violation of Rule #2 on Peter's Evil Overlord List! :schema:

As hard as they tried to prevent any such issues, the makers of the original "Elite" accidentally shipped with a system named "Arse". I think it's in Galaxy 6.

Display blocks should also be able to display block names. Suggested mark-up: <NameMaster count=1> <NameSlave count=1> <NameSelf> <HealthCurrentSelf> <HealthMaxSelf> <HealthCurrentMaster count=1> <HealthMaxMaster count=1> <HealthCurrentSlave count=1> <HealthMaxSlave count=1>...

This would be neat, but is a rare edge case. We need in-game programmable AI, so you can tell it that there is a riser. I'm surprised that you cannot raise and lower on a rail in a docked entity. That would be an interesting addition. Players would enjoy making one of these:

I would prefer a many-dirt-to-single crystal conversion. (E.g. 10,000 dirt yields a single crystal, to simulate the refining of tons of sediment to gather enough molecules of the crystal to build a sufficient inventory item of the stuff.) Kind of feels wasteful that way, but more meaningful...

Maybe re-use Wireless blocks (unlinked ones) so that they have a secondary function. This way, regular logic still works, and you don't need a new block type as an adapter.

I would recommend three block changes: 1. Rail dockers, ship cores, and faction blocks all are merged into a single block. 2. Maybe a new weapon system, semi-rapid fire (5 shots per second, maybe?), high power usage. Effectively a single-block replacement for the cannon/cannon PD combo at half...

OK, have a translucent image of the block, to simulate a holograph of the block.

Maybe with certain combos, the weapon's behavior is further altered. (E.g. slower missile more susceptible to AMS/PD, slower turn rate, able to lose lock, lower damage, earlier detection, etc.) And of course, we need missile early warnings.

Maybe the atmospheres could fade at a distance, so they aren't so... distracting. Or maybe make them very very small, to simulate the twinkle of a distant stellar body.
