Found a solution: Draw a boundary around the barrels cross-section, then calculate the distance to the centre of all of them. Tale the smallest radius and keep it until the array changes in a shipyard (ignore damage on it).

Copy the voting tab before submitting fixed the bug for me :p I guessed many missed voting because of this, but in one thread I told how to fix this issue. I think my solution got overwhelmed by many other posts.

Because nothing on a HB should be personal, except it was personal before docking. If there is a personal room, a docked personal entity. Having to undock it first makes sure that it can be removed by killing the dock and overheating it after this person leaves the faction, if he quits playing SM.

How old is he? Does this guy have a brain-cancer? If you don't agree with what I said, fine. But your posts stalk mine without any proper, real solution and this is not OK.

Go to a search engine and enter "room" :) room - Ixquick Bild Suchen Search for layouts of aircraft carriers, ships in general and buildings. I like the idea of having the same shape built once for differently sized ships, especially if you can reduce shapes to be less detailed on smaller ships.

Re-spawn ships !!! (but I know what you meant. undeathinator ON ships) SpiritDragon you missed : "…, because if anything except that being build enters while it's building, it can break." which requires just a collision check.

You call it point-less, but sometime someone will make a docking platform entity put onto the HB. How should the game know it's a docking platform and not a ship? I thought "undocked=ship".

I think one smedit version crashes because of texture-folders. 2 years ago SM had only 1 set of textures. Other files have their structures updated too.

I agree, large ships have smaller armour blocks (relative to their length/width/height), thus it is easier to dig a tunnel toward the essential blocks. However, instead of disabling thrust, make it more efficient the less thrust was used during last 5 seconds - this is more seamless and easy to...

nothing to lose here? I shall try: Votes = (number active forum members) /2 Some might not have voted because of the error message when you need too long to select candidates and don'T refresh the page before submitting.

What stops it to be invincible like shield regen after a broken patch? Perhaps only hull blocks should regenerate and have a regeneration delay of a few seconds? Inverse destruction after delay. During delay, you can punch through and kill system blocks (not regenerating) or turn your ship to...

But then there needs to be a way to create tools - from stone-age tech to space age :p

Master_Artificer , you seem to neot reading what I said. 2 Settings at a faction block, NOT a faction permission block or public permission block. You don't place a dozen of "(just) faction blocks" on every structure, or do you?

They should just not be able to change it. It will stay personal if done before docking. That would reduce the snowball effect. If you can undock, you can access/control it, you put effort into undocking it.

I would go for 6 (ships) and 12 (stations) and require a pyramid with the boundary box on bottom and the emitter on top to be free. But what prevents you from having 2 motherships or stations near the sector boundary which guard the emitters of each other? Personally, I would prefer...

Agree I always felt the entities should decide what they do, rather than the rail does it. The rail could just be used to suggest the entity what to do. And if something falls into place, collision stuff should only happen after something triggers it's movement again.

Yes, but that's as much as a standard door on some minimal-interior ships. Sometimes I wish for special rail blocks which only need a docker and a pusher/puller. Push will push the door 5 blocks away or until it hit something and then stop. Pull would draw the door toward the puller until it...

What? you can't understand? Set faction module to PERSONAL should ONLY work when UNDOCKED from HB at least. In general, 2 permissions for structures at a whole. And then define which actions take which permission setting by default to make use of 1 block per activatable less often required -...

You also have to care for not blocking turret lines of sight too. If it doesn't add to AHP pool, it's still 2.5 times HP. You just have to make sure, all scaffolding dies before your AHP get drained. Looks like a messy bug.

But this makes rail-doors even larger! There should be another solution to this BTW.
