Mostly, I got tired of being forced to fly predefined spaceships with predefined weapons setups and put up with wacky 2-D flight in games like EvE or Star Trek Online. :\ StarMade neatly solved both of those problems.

Nah, this would just be one shape and one colour, and specifically be designed for the grates. also don't discourage Saber any further :(

Not if you let people put down stations that align to the water surface! :D

You could always just get rid of water blocks and write the terrain generation algorithm in such a way that the four corners are always ocean, then have a large "ocean" that isn't made of blocks. Of course, this would mean programming either water or a solid flat placeholder...

Saber would have to answer this

Yeah, Saber said he didn't really want to make that mini wedge piece, but it'd be really useful for rounding off slab corners and interior wall corners whatnot without using the very specific-looking corner lights that, even when turned off, look like, well, lights. I could also see it being...

4-byte blocks can happen; rewriting the game will not happen but native libs can be written in C++ for physics, and IIRC that is planned though it may be a while.

schema Random question, why are the version numbers stuck at v0.199.xxx? I could see that we're waiting for a very major change to move to v0.200.xxx, but if all the big changes are going to come in small parts as they have been so far, will there ever be a huge change like that? And if all else...

Excellent! Thanks a lot. \o/

If the slab bar was reintroduced (and added to the astronaut mode CRTL menu) that would alleviate the issues. Also, if there was some way to scroll between slots without scrolling through all the options that'd be nice...

I support this as well, though it's not a huge deal.

The problem here is that in most cases, you will need all available shapes, so the current system can become more of a hindrance than added convenience. The factory changes, however, make the entire thing worth it for me, so I won't complain... too much. :P

Consider the fact that, whatever new factory system is added, it would in principle do the same thing: Take raw materials and produce either blocks or (hopefully) a complete ship. It would just do that in a more enjoyable and less tedious manner than the current system. If this update's change...

Yey! \o/ I mean, honestly, the block shapes change is long overdue, but better late than never... and the rest of the changes, whether they're in this update or a work in progress, are awesome! :D

I don't think I'm ever going to use this engine block, but I made it in the dev build with the new pipes, and it looks nice I guess, so here. :P

Yay, this is coming with next release :D And yeah, for anyone who still thinks otherwise, go into your game file and find blocktypes.properties (I think it's in /StarMade/data/config/) and open it up in Notepad. You'll see a list of literally ALL the IDs of EVERYTHING, including blocks that...

I haven't run into a sun once... However, setting multiple waypoints seems like a natural feature to have. The trick is just optimizing the UI/UX stuff involved with it so it doesn't end up being cumbersome to manage them.

Next update, or the one afterwards... Some work is done on the framework (there is a new method of longer-range collision detection calc based on spheres or something I think) but IDK if the AI actually does anything new yet.

Implemented in the dev builds. Criss tag pls

Except for some dev builds; those are good sometimes.
