Ships would be able to turn strafe and go backwards without them, but not as quickly.

Me too.

How would the game "know" that it's an articulated engine?

I I understand, but the devs are already planning to reduce ships' ability to strafe and go backwards.

Thank you both, I've been trying quite hard.

It would be a little too harsh for small ships. What I suggest, however, is that stationary thrusters would add only, let's say 20 percent of total thrust to strafing and going backwards while thrust added by articulated thrusters would ignore the debuffs, but only on the four directions the...

If you mean that it would increase turning rate, I don't see why not. Might be trickier to implement though.

Thanks. Imagine all the dropships you can make! I also have a similar idea of a turret AI mode that would make the turrets "follow" your mouse pointer and shoot when the player in the ship is shooting. Would be mostly cosmetic though as we can already focus fire.

Because if you knock out the engine mount block on the main ship the whole articulated engine will detach just like a turret.

I REALLY want to know what the devs' opinion on this would be...

Here's mine. It's a trading guild supermarket with a bar, cargo bay, a shop and much more. The black areas are empty for future upgrades. http://starmadedock.net/content/trading-guild-supermarket.1029/

Thanks :)

I like this fancy term. Too bad I can't edit this into the title...

Too much work for Skooma for such a small impact on gameplay.

Brown lights could look pretty cool on pirate ships... would look a little similar to yellow though...

Wait, did you just register to write 9 words? The idea is pretty nice though, but how are you going to prevent the player from jumping over it when you can jump 5 blocks up?

Basically, what I suggest is an articulated engine module which would work like turret mounts, but instead of mounting turrets it would mount engines that would also be built as seperate ships at first. Once the engine is docked it will always face the direction at which the thrust is applied...

One does not simply half a voxel.

Maybe make one that would be more effective against rocks?

Then why make it damage hull in the first place?
