Weren't we going to get a particle system at some point? This would probably be in it.

This would just make it so beams and cannons BOTH need to be close range to hit.

Orr... you could have fleeing pirates despawn if they're unloaded for a certain amount of time? Thus preventing the issue of a "pirate cage" getting slowly formed around your base by weak pirates showing up and running away? It contributes atmosphere to the game, which, yes, IS important. It...

It's 200k including docked entities. Depending on the ship, you may have to shave off some stuff to fit it in for the competition.

To answer your questions: Decent, and a lot better than before; Fine, but there may be some lag during autosaves (but that's pretty much every server); Yes; No; Non-existent (except for that one time Jaaskinal forgot to clean up those Aether pirates...); Yes.

No... No they don't.

Missiles are best used after you drop the enemy below 50% shields and target their point defense turrets. They also work best in groups.

103k blocks isn't that big. Keep at it, I'd love to see this finished.

I'm pretty sure docked entities firing weapons decloaks the main ship. That's supposed to include logic fired weapons, due to a rather nasty exploit of being able to fire swarmers without decloaking. Those servers being...?

You know what? Fine. You're all clearly steeped in the idea that microtransactions are endorsed by Satan and completely irredeemable, despite having... basically no evidence saying this form of microtransaction would be bad. Time to drop the subject. We're clearly not getting anywhere when all...

And your point here is... what, exactly?

Ridik, I thought you got unbanned from the forums? You can stop using Order|Chaos now. :P As I've said about 10 million times, I don't put the majority of events on the timeline. Other people do, and I just approve the suggestions. If you feel there's inaccurate information on the document...
