Are you kidding me? Small ships need armor a hell of a lot more than a battleship, which has shields as the main protector. 1000 EHP is a lot more useful when you're fighting ships that do 50 damage a shot as opposed to 5000. Also, it's quite easy to partially hull a permajammed & cloaked...

It's not like Sven was the only person using logic seekers. Spartan-089 was as well. The logic swarmers have the major flaw of being nearly worthless as long as you keep the station between you and the swarmer, anyway.

Real nebulae are not as dense as they look. The procedural nebulae backgrounds we already have are probably more accurate for what being inside a nebulae would be like. Plus, nebulae are just clouds of dust, mainly hydrogen. Why would they lower your shields or power regen? I don't see why...

Yeah, but you could already do that with logic. Plus, think off all the space you'd have to take away from shields to make that massive amount of weapons any good.

No. Factions should be able to create their own ranks and duties of said ranks. You can make the text on display blocks go off the edge of the display block, allowing you to put text on non-display block surfaces. For example. I made a HUD with this trick for a fighter cockpit, complete with...

We already have wormholes and binary star systems, actually. Schema said gas giants were definitely something he could add but has yet to because they'd be completely useless in the current game. Most of this stuff has been suggested numerous times. Smarter planetary design would be nice...

You'd still be able to build a weapon that is just a big rocket launcher with engines. It's just that currently, every ship is basically a rocket launcher with engines.

Some of these sound like when overdrive was broken, had no limit, and you only needed 1/100 mass for 100% efficiency, letting you build ships that could go, like, 3000% overdrive. Anyway, I think we've got a decent amount of propulsion methods right now (thrusters, overdrive, push engines, and...

It's more of a "why aren't super massive guns practical in real life" than "I could totally slap a cannon on my smart car" IRL, a larger weapon becomes harder and harder to maintain. This is sort of simulating that without making waffleboards gods. Building a super weapon would definitely...

Where you here for the horror that was age of waffleguns? Judging by your account age, no. Let me educate you on them. Do you find current combat to be laggy, with blocks getting destroyed in large quantities of blocks being destroyed at once by the three or four punch/pierce rapid cannons or...

Declined. Reason- Untruthfulness about past factions. http://starmadedock.net/threads/the-lazarus-imperium-join-the-greatest-empire-of-starmade-today.64/page-12#post-30368 http://starmadedock.net/threads/starfleet-still-boldly-going-recruiting.1610/page-3#post-30680 The Lazarus Imperium and...

I like option 2. It allows people to sacrifice their own shields to make their turrets stronger, without needing to make the turrets huge.

I believe the Beam Rifle and Rocket Launcher are powerful enough to deal damage to the faction module. Laser pistol is not. Beam/Pulse is decent at taking out faction modules with relatively few blocks and without destroying all the blocks around the module, but it has a 30 second reload time...

Did you try turning the AI off and back on again?

It doesn't increase your recharge rate, functionally or effectively. It just applies an armor rating to your shields.

That's not a bad thing. The bad thing is there there's no weakpoints in it. If you design a system with no weakpoints to it in a game, it becomes OVERPOWERED. Disregard how designing something with weakpoints in it in real life is a stupid idea. Look at it solely through the lens of balancing a...

This name change seems rather pointless to me. Calbiri, do you know why this was done?

I would love to see this in the game, alongside increasing projectile size/beam thickness depending on damage.

You know what kind of ships people are going to build with shielded turrets? They're going to build flat-topped ships that can fit lots of turrets that can turn a whole 360*. You don't need to see the enemy, because you have AI that can do it for you coating your ship, at around half of them...
