I do, but its still three or four jumps to get back to Spawn from my station whenever I have to go help somebody out. Thats why I built a warpgate back there instead. Default range on jump drives is too short for my tastes. I would think an actual FTL jump drive engine should be enough to get...

Like everyone else is saying, it depends. On my current workhorse combat miner, I do have a fair bit of empty space inside of it. Mainly because I have large recessed turrets in the front half of a hull built around a salvage array in the back half, and the turrets don't go all the way down...

Well, if we want to talk about storage realism, lets talk first about how I mined the entire crust and mantel off of a planet, and then put the entire planet IN MY POCKETS to manually walk it inside my station to put in a number of storage crates that in real life would fit in the same space as...

I haven't personally done it myself yet. I don't play single player, and don't have admin access to the server I'm on.

Yes, standard armor is heavier than basic hulls, and advanced armor is heavier than standard.

As in stopped playing, or hit by a bus kind of dead?

I'm getting it to. Just updated to the latest drivers and still nothing but uniform white boxes as far as the eye can see.

I had this problem after a complete reinstall of the OS. Turns out the cause was I forgot to install the drivers for my video card, and the system was resorting to using the basic windows video drivers which wouldn't handle it. Soon as I installed the real drivers, it worked fine.

For the record, the one I'm on is 300 m/sec normal limit. Fast enough to get around without being ridiculous. I freaking hate spending large amounts of time doing nothing and being unable to automate it. I wouldn't mind a slower speed limit if I didn't have to constantly sit there with my...

I find it makes the build easier. When I make a docked generator, the first thing I do is build a generator that can hit soft cap (or whatever particular power/size restraint I'm aiming for). Then put in the transfer beams and the capacitors. Set the beams to a test fire pulse, and then...

Its the same reason docked power generators create lag. The system is constantly running collision checks.

Wow, thats a lot more complicated than mine. I just have each reactor with a single computer, and build them in pairs. A simple pulse clock with a 2.5 second delay between pulses to an activator and a NOT on the mother ship, then hook those to wireless blocks with the other end on the...

I'm genuinely curious about something. Does anyone actually play on a server (or on single player) with the speed limit set to the default slow-as-Christmas 75 meters per second? Default settings for several things in the game seem awfully low to me (speed, the build mode sliders, etc), does...

Well, if memory serves, you can only have one station per sector, and you can only have a gate on or as a station. So at no point should there ever be two different gates in the same sector, so... why don't we just directly input the sector coordinates into the computer?

Hey WolfChild, would you mind if I uploaded the red version of this I edited? Actually, seeing as it doesn't look like he's posted anything since 2014, I'll go ahead and post it and just make sure to reference the original.

Ah, gratci. Didn't realize it was actually built into Starmade. That makes things a hell of a lot easier! Don't have anyone else to fly the ship, so had to jump around a bit to get the shot, but I think it gives the basic idea. Then the same thing in reverse with a press of the same button...

Don't know how to record gifs in game, so I'll just have to describe it. My capitol ship I'm building had space for fighter bays that were just barely bigger than the fighter itself, and I know from experience it would be a pain in the ass to manually fly in there and get back out again, so...

Alternative to making Warp Gate modules for cash and paying the 1m for a station, but riskier (that I just heard about last night and have not personally tried yet): 1) Fly around in a fast pod and visit all of the unknown stations until you find an abandoned one instead of a pirate station...

Someone on my server found where somebody else had put a station in their claimed system. The asked what they should do about it. My suggestion was to buy a torch, get in there and find the faction block, and cut it out. Then drop your own faction block and take the station for yourself...
