Eh? The three FTL types in Stellaris pretty well reflect the three typical types of faster-than-light travel you typically see in Sci-Fi. It's kind of hard to determine that that comment comes from Stellaris, lol.

To be fair that doesn't look very scary, but then it's a relatively small program... There're just a lot more conditional checks than I feel like trying to read through :P (Also, it'd be no uglier in Java, so far as I know.)

That's Schema's fault, not Dank's. There were already placeholder sound effects in the files. :P

The Imperium is eternal! ...Even if we find ourselves having to switch games, which doesn't seem likely anyway.

Mostly building things that aren't dependent on power. Shells, interiors, tiny ships. (though of course, a huge systems overhaul will probably come with power, so those will have to be changed, but it isn't a huge task) I do have one frigate that I might add systems to anyway. Might.

If memory serves, even Schema doesn't know where he put this little 'feature' and so he can't do anything with it. :P

AND fleet bridges for drive-less ships (requiring strategic locations to stage fleets and open them), AND probably any other form of FTL that you might decide should be implemented. I didn't mention it earlier, but part of the reason I thought this system would be a good idea is that "different...

We shouldn't add this. :P Transporters aren't meant to be 'short range warpgates', they're meant to be site-to-site transporters for convenience (and to make certain NPC mechanics simpler later on). Warpgates are meant to be long-range transport gateways for practicality.

Anything that happens to a ship is supposed to happen to aligned players as well, but this is kinda besides the point, as... yes, players can walk through warpgates. This was added a while ago. If it broke, it's broken and that's a bug.

They can. Transporters can take you to an adjacent loaded sector. One ship/station per sector can do that for you.

Everyone here thinks this game has potential, whether or not they believe that it is or will be taken advantage of to its fullest. We don't have many alternatives, so one way or another we're stuck here. :P

I narrowly avoided creating quite possibly the best missile circus I've ever seen. An old version of my cruiser had a huge array of logic-wired small missile launchers... really huge. If I had chosen to go with missile/missile over missile/cannon - and I nearly did - ....welp. That would have...

? Most performance increases have been legitimate, except for a select few atypical systems that end up experiencing a performance decrease or in the worst cases complete inability to run the game :P The thing that happens more often, though, is that the optimizations are 'overzealous' or miss...

Even taking into account what the devs have said here, there does seem to be a bit of a phenomenon with Schine where it always sounds like the 'good' stuff is a few months down the line, and then there's inevitably some rescheduling of priorities and the best part of whatever's being worked on...

The two main goals of the planet overhaul seem to be increasing planet size, and increasing planet performance.

lol

Nobody wants to do anything (especially building) if they know that everything they have will have to be torn down and completely redone at some unknown undefined time. Whether or not people find the power proposal to be any good or not is actually not the primary point here, though I suppose...

There is a number of possibilities here. That gif was actually a pentagonal or even square, flat, planet section, viewed from approximately 1/3rd of the way from a corner or edge to the center, looking towards the opposite corner. It wasn't an example of any new planet shape that is going into...

I wouldn't want to see these kinds of mechanics until the base game is 'done'. That doesn't mean that they shouldn't be considered... unless Schine has another game planned? :D I obviously don't have access to the game's code, but aren't sectors effectively instances without loading screens...

?!? A procedural system like No Man's Sky (albeit with actual procedural creatures...) would actually be a great thing to have in StarMade. As long as it isn't the only thing to have in StarMade. If I'm not mistaken that's the whole issue with NMS. There's no awesome shipbuilding system, no...
