Agreed... or at least, play the game for a while first, watch where the development is going, and then decide whether or not you want to buy it. Remember, the full game is free until beta or so. The 'Demo' on Steam - or downloading through the web site - is actually the same as buying the game.

CURRENTLY: Glitch through your ships and be useless aside from shooting at players of enemy factions if they're ever floating around free near your NPC's for some reason. PLANNED: Enhance ship functionality, give a bit more life to the game overall, possibly automate some tasks aboard ships or...

Is there any particular reason why a block with 0 health is deleted from the entity? It seems like things such as ship repairs/useful astrotech beams would be far easier to implement if a zero-health block was simply 'ghostified' (like a ship core, but also made invisible) rather than being...

I'm tempted to write a Phab ticket for this, as it's basically a bug... Or, instead of being violently reactionary, they could just, y'know, not have integrity on things that don't need it, and tweak the system a bit so it doesn't cause so much trouble in situations where it shouldn't. I can...

Unfortunately, computing is digital, and not analog. Blocks have one bit reserved for their activation state. If I'm not mistaken, accommodating this would mean switching from that bit to a floating-point number... That amount of extra data could have a lot of other, less niche uses if they were...

Apparently they didn't bother to hook up the old scanner functionality to new Long-Range Scanners. They apparently have better/different planned functionality for the universe update, but seeing as that is probably in a year or more, I don't see why they didn't bother to hook the old behaviour...

Nobody minds features being broken in early dev builds, as long as they are fixed later - that's why they're dev builds. People do mind when the mechanics are garbage, and, by all indications, are also the mechanics they would ultimately push to release unless people make obscene amounts of...

Not a Saber problem. Only Schema can fix that, and you know how attempting to reach him is...

Yes, but on the other hand, we only even got that after eight months of peaceful and not-so-peaceful protest. (Also, seems that with a bit of manipulation of the system, sticks are still the most efficient configuration for your turnrate and mass because for some reason Schine chose hard facing...

Creating a handrail that works as a physics object will require 3D mesh colliders one way or the other.

If those were physical, they'd be full blocks. We still don't have 3D mesh block colliders yet, and from the looks of it we won't for a long time...

The only case where they said 'next patch' was when the AI update was supposed to be coming. That ended up getting pushed by the power update, now I have no idea which patch it'll be fixed in. :P

Fleet mining behaviour is random and inconsistent. Sometimes just relogging fixes issues, sometimes dropping/recreating fleet, sometimes coming back another day, sometimes sacrificing a goat to the gods of chaos, and sometimes nothing at all will make your fleet mine.

No, you will not. Not for salvage beams. The stepwise ("acid") damage mechanic apparently only works for actual damage.

Yeah, this kind of thing tends to happen with brand new systems. Remember how long it took for pre-0.200 to get to the state it was in with regards to basic bugs and exploits... and that even then plenty of old bugs and some exploits were still around. If they removed OD instead of taking the...

Since 2014? A lot of things have happened. We now have galaxies, chambers to enhance various functions of your ship, better textures, FTL, more weapons (currently a lot of that is broken, as some weapon systems will be replaced next update and they're not updating it as a result), a new power...

Select fire works fine for me. Is "Remote Control" turned off for your turret? If not, it has to be.

No idea how that would've happened. New power recipes do seem to exist in the basic factory... Try running an installation repair.

You mean, the server hasn't been slowed down enough? Yes, planets should be large enough to 'fit' these things, but there's no reason they should actually be allowed.

aw, no Schema. D:
