      Keep Faction Homes Invincible

      The problem with your attitude is: 1) You are forcing your way of playing on someone who doesn't necessarily want it. If you want a pure no holds barred PvP server where everyone understands that from the start, that's fine. But core game play mechanics that apply to all games and servers by...

      Keep Faction Homes Invincible

      And those are exactly the attitudes that make most people hate PvPers so much. That "Wah, if you don't like it when I bring a capitol ship to face roll your newb ass, then go home and cry about it" mentality is EXACTLY the kind of thing that gives real PvP a bad name.

      Final Fantasy Gambits

      Something that literally just hit me as something that could actually work well in Starmade. In I believe it was Final Fantasy 12, a lot of the game's combat engine revolved around Gambits. Gambits were basically fragments of AI that the player could piece together in order to basically let...

      In Developement Cockpits: Simple solution (remote core access)

      Hell, I'd be perfectly happy if I could jump into a camera and steer from there. Really not a fan of having to either bury your cockpit in the middle of your ship for protection, or put it out where it looks good and risk being cored.

      Keep Faction Homes Invincible

      All that is required for Evil to triumph is for good men to remain silent. Those whom you least wish to speak for you most often yell the loudest. Additional quote about not speaking up when you had the chance goes here.

      Keep Faction Homes Invincible

      Some talk about faction home base invincibility going away at some point in the future. Might be true, it might be regular old Internet rumor mongering. Either way, I felt like laying this out publicly just to be 100% sure it's heard. If HB invincibility is ever removed, I will drop this game...

      Time to Revisit the Ban on Factories on Ships?

      I will just put it this way, if home base invincibility is removed, I will drop this game like a hot potato. The ability for griefers to destroy everything you've built while you aren't even on to defend yourself is unacceptable. The fact your home base is safe is the *ONLY* thing that makes...

      Time to Revisit the Ban on Factories on Ships?

      Okay, lets just start by my saying that I understand the reason why we currently don't allow factories and refineries on ships. They want you to make a base or a station, they don't want you flying around in one ship with all your stuff on it. But now that we've had the mass pass and blocks...

      Make beams become fatter the bigger they are

      Yup, I think everybody wants bigger effects for bigger arrays. Beams, cannons, missiles, they all need to be BIGGER when the arrays they come from get bigger.

      Buy Starmade

      Usually the way these places work is that they buy a massive number of copies from the source at a big bulk discount, then pass the saving down to you. Lot like how infomercials work. They may only make a dollar of profit on that $19.95 whatever, but they sell 100 million of the things and...

      Buy Starmade

      Don't really care if its legit or not. I avoid all third party online retailers that aren't Amazon level "Duh, yeah, they're real". Do I miss out on some good deals? Yeah, probably. Do I avoid wasting money on scams? Definitely.

      Do Some Systems Flat Out Not Have Certain Resources?

      Okay, so I have my station built in a system with lots of asteroid rings, including one at the very outermost edge of the system. I've gone all the way around this ring (which gets so close to the system edge its easy to overstep into the next system while exploring it), no blue asteroids...

      Symmetry Screwups

      Yup, I know I at least have made this request before as well. Nothing sucks like spending an hour or two crafting a finely honed masterpiece, only to find out mirror mode wasn't turned on and now you have to do it all again.

      Buy Starmade

      Yeah, I never trust third party bundles like that. I keep seeing them go horribly wrong. For me, if I want to buy the game, I will buy the game directly from the source. That cuts out all chances of scams.

      Small ships dogfighting

      Yup, you're playing right into their game by aiming at their most heavily armored, least vulnerable place. So yeah, its going to take you a while to dogfight one down. Might I suggest, if you haven't already, to spawn in an Isanth from a blueprint so you can dissect it and see how it works...

      Pirates & World Missing?

      Generally speaking, when you start up a new world (or start on a new server) you should grab a planet as a temporary base, faction block it to claim the system and mark it as your faction home, then use your starter cannon blocks to build a simple defense turret for your base. That will keep...

      Building the most effective point defense

      Not really that I know of. I just design mine to look aesthetically pleasing, and make sure I have enough that all available arcs of fire are covered at least twice so that any given incoming missile should have at least two turrets firing on it at any given time. Pretty much nothing short of...

      Option for admin-warp

      In all due fairness, its not the Dev's fault you have no self control.

      Dead planets and treasure!

      Well, right now there really aren't any "perfectly good planets" due to the lag involved. I'd love to make a planet base, with a space elevator, and all that, but its not worth it with how much lag taking large ships near planets causes. Plus, planets are the most efficient way to gather...
