I actually had a similar idea a while back. To make a Reactor Control Computer and slave reactor modules to it, then have the power generation caps apply on a per-computer basis. Means to bypass the cap you still have to build multiple self-contained reactors, but that since they wouldn't be...

Really not wanting to redesign these things into being more ship-like due to how I intend to store them. On the carrier they're going to fit into recessed grooves so that only the wide end pokes out above the surface (with some plex or blast doors closing around them to make for a more solid...

Please tell me this is on the CC...

Aww hell nah, that would require collision damage to be turned on, and Homie don't play that.

Yeah, <citation needed> on that one, but it would be great if they could pull it off.

Yeah, I was afraid of that. Fact that it would fire at all means my build must be right, I was just hoping that maybe somebody would say otherwise... Oh well, I suppose I can keep building a carrier for it anyway and just never actually place the build command on it. I do chuckle at that...

When guns are made from asteroids, only asteroids will be guns.

This is the view of the transporter room on my station: In the doorway there are area sensors to toggle gravity so that when I beam in and leave the transporter room it will automatically turn the gravity on. Thing is, when I cross into it to teleport out, this happens: Apparently the...

Gratci!

Okay, so I finally got around to building a test mining drone, and its a little... derpy. Okay, a lot derpy. It has power, lots of thrust, properly linked cargo space, and as you can see it (usually) will start mining just fine. Sometimes it'll do nothing but sit and spin, but usually it...

When you're logging in, there is a dropdown list of the servers you've connected to. After a server I'm on dies, I usually bounce around a lot of different new ones until I find one I like and settle there, so I have a laundry list of said server hosts in the dropdown. Right now its not a big...

Depending on the ship I'm building, I sometimes like to have the core (and the bridge built around the core) at the front of the ship, sometimes in the back of the ship, sometimes on top somewhat exposed like a Star Trek bridge, sometimes buried in the ship itself. Aka, I'm very inconsistent...

Yeah, if you have the ship on the old PC still, re-save it to blueprint as a new file. Sounds like the file you thought was it was an old WIP and you just forgot to save the finished one when you were done.

Long ago, explosion damage could penetrate surfaces. So if you were inside a faction base and a missile hit the ceiling directly over your head, you'd take damage because you were in the explosion radius. So, long ago, early in my Starmade carrer, I had had great luck in farming pirates with...

Well, they didn't have that problem back in the day, but yeah, they're pretty buggy these days as turrets have advanced a lot since then.

Application Program Interface. Basically, its a standardized set of programming calls that allow modders to interface with the game in a controlled and uniform way. Think of it sort of along the lines of instead of a modder having to go in and directly change a stored value for something in...

Glad to help. Make sure you go to the home page for Bench's youtube videos, he's got stuff explaining how to do all kinds of hard stuff that will help you a lot.

For the same reason I use decorative blocks and make things other than big solid cubes?

Heh, you obviously don't build very big interiors. Its quite difficult to light anything even remotely large.

So its what, a clock pulse (with how long of a delay?) to an activation block, activation block to the jump computer, and an inner ship remote to the jump drive computer, and thats it?
