You're right, it is pointless because pretty much no one agrees with you. Sorry to be blunt, but its the truth. Stealth as it was was horribly unbalanced, and there were macros out there that made it impossible to to decloak one (because the exact instant it decloaked you, the macro simply...

Biggest server lag is probably going to be shear block count. Following that, probably lighting, followed by AI's and logic. So if you really want to lag out the server, make a freaking huge kilometer long ship that has a massive light up billboard on the side made with tons of logic to...

Nah, he's just got Glenn Quagmire's bedroom. Automated rotating beds, clamps and manacles that spring out of the chairs, and video cameras everywhere to record all the fun. Giggity.

True, but have you tried spawning the blueprint, re-activating, and then saving the blueprint back? If blueprints are saving with everything set to off by default now, thats a problem. If its just old saves, then its just an temporary inconvenience.

Seriously? Well thats a pain in the ass. Thanks for the heads up, I'll start incorporating the enhancers into my bases from now on.

Ship had plenty of energy. Generators and capacitors were already in place.

So I was building a ship the other day and dropped what I'd consider a medium sized turret in place. Overall mass of about 90. Got the "This entity is too heavy" notice. "Okay," I thought, "thats fine. I don't have any enhancers in place yet, so that makes sense." I proceed to drop 100...

Yeah, big ships have big guns, and any armor short of a dozen layers thick isn't really going to do jack to stop them from just tearing you up.

Can't you just use the "activate all turrets" command from the systems menu?

Yup, your issue is that I'm betting you're building on a planet, which has no innate power capacity. So you could have a million energy per second, but your total power is lower than what both factories draw at the same time, so you get insufficient energy warnings. Drop some power capacitors...

Anyone think they'd be up to creating a Warforged skin?

Yellow would work. Heck, just changing the shape of the white reticle from a circle to crosshairs would work as well. Just some kind of clearly visible distinction for as soon as enemy ships would show up on your navigation menu. I finally got up enough money to buy sufficient amounts of...

So the server I was on closed down, and I started up on a new one. One thing I had forgotten about while tooling around in my frigates and capitol ships on the old server, when you're in nothing but a piddly little miner ship that doesn't even have a hull or weapons, just bare power and salvage...

Was just about to make a thread for this, and Suggestion saved the day by bringing this one to my attention. Agreed, a logic signal coming from the core that can detect when it is occupied would be great. I love the idea of having my ship be in "sleep mode" while its docked, and then when I...

That did the trick, can't believe I forgot about that. So, point defense AI was improved, this is very good news. Are we still running against the issue where beam turrets try to lead shots like they were cannons (and hence can't hit the broad side of a barn)?

Complete scratch reinstall did the trick. Lost my saved ships, but oh well, design and build is the best part of the game anyway.

For the record, Pluto was demoted because it hasn't cleared it's orbit. Basically, Pluto is at the edge of the Kuiper Belt, an area of debris on the outer edge of our solar system. Kind of like the big brother to the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Pluto is big enough to be a planet...

Hey all, been too busy to play for a couple of months. Last I played the rail patch had just dropped. Can anyone give me a quick overview of whats happened since then? Don't need anything super detailed, just basic idea. Like I'm hearing that cannons and beams got some passive effects, and...

So, long story short my Windows 8.1 was fried by a failed windows update and I had to do a system refresh. That wiped out a lot of programs, but fairly sure I've reinstalled everything that Starmade needs. Thing is, it won't launch. I can run the starter.exe, it says I have the most up to...

This is correct. Has not happened to me, but I was watching a video of a fight where somebody had a finger slip and dropped their jammer for a split second and suddenly had dozens of missiles coming for them. Re-enabling the jammer did nothing, it was too late. Got hammered, hard. Missiles...
