Well, for starters, these tags for suggestions are only a few days old. Which would be why all the other suggestions over the months for this wouldn't have it.

Or, you know, a relatively balanced mode that requires crafting mode. Technically, SM is ONLY survival. "Creative" doesn't exist. You can just spawn things in with admins commands.

Turrets being destructible by smaller support craft is REQUIRED for smaller support craft to not be utterly useless except in massive swarms. This isn't about how "unrealistic" it is for turrets to not be protected because they move, this is about the GAMEPLAY aspect, and the GAMEPLAY aspect...

Last time I checked, 90% of sci-fi franchises have the captain shouting orders, computers exploding, emergency procedures taken, etc, when shields are being hit. We don't have that. That makes shield combat boring. I'm not suggesting that our computers should randomly explode for no reason when...

Well, you know what they say about assuming things. Your entire thread seems to rely on this. If you multiply the shield count by ten, I'm going to cut down my shield blocks by ten, increase my weapon blocks and power storage, and annihilate things with alpha damage, just like people already...

So LOWER thruster power consumption? Your "problem" is as easily fixable as every other solution to the lessened power that Mered4 suggested. Actually, without an atmosphere or the possibility of stalling, small craft turn around faster, because inertia and tensile strength and such. Plus...

Can this be stickied? I feel like this should be stickied.

LUI coding for custom AI, as well as for server operators to make custom quests/missions, is (or at least was) planned. Not much has been said about it since it was first announced.

Support. Also, does anyone know if binary star systems have ambient light from both stars?

Yeah, you aren't the first person to bring this idea up, Cyber. Even I had one for this, though it involved dealing increasing amounts of block damage to ships entering atmosphere depending on mass to deal with the "nose poking" issue of big ships. However, your layer idea makes much more sense...

I'd like any of these options, but I prefer the effect system the most.

I could have sworn that used to work. Anyway, you could use a dummy account to be owner of the station, as well as having it as faction homebase. I'm not saying this shouldn't be added, I'd like it to be. I'm saying you CAN already work around the issue.

You can use admin commands to create a new faction. Giving said faction a negative factionID will make it an AI faction. Use admin commands to join the AI faction, set the station as homebase, use admin commands to boot yourself from the faction.

Loading two perspectives at once is very resource heavy. Maybe if it just took a snapshot every 5 seconds instead of a constant live feed.

Starmade is definitely worth 9 dollars. I'm glad I got my copy for 6. Also, didn't SE recently release infinite worlds?

It's not like this is new. People had been doing this with open plexdoors for, quite literally, years. Turrets can't shoot through blocks of the thing they're docked to anymore. I believe this includes open plexdoors/area triggers.

Oooh, fast inventory management. Awesome!

If you make your turrets "target selected," they'll aim at asteroids you target and fire. Since it's pull beams, they'll drag it along. Just make sure the asteroid stays within the turret's aiming area and that you disable the AI in structure tab before targeting anything that isn't an asteroid.

This is actually a really good idea.

Hangar doors, trains, elevators, collapsible turrets/docks/droneracks, spinning armor plates, and more.
