So, I did some testing. While the turrets are laggy (I blame rails), they are pretty damn effective, and look decent enough.

pssst, you wrote inteior in the title

Then perhaps EE and SS aren't for you? I players don't mind some lag and like big ships I say let them.

On the initial subject. What if the reactors get a bonus when grouped together, except that EVERY reactor in a group explodes or poofs when a sinle block of that group is destroyed? That'd allow interesting designs with the ever so present risk VS reward aspect in mind. Play it safe and use...

True, but that quickly becomes a gigantic pain in the ass.

I will be ordering/buying parts for my new computer this week. So hopefully I'll be able to get some REAL work done on this thing soon, as the lag spikes just make it too painful currently.

Oh yea, I forgot to mention that missiles now have different turn speeds. Edit: Source is Lancake , you might want to ask him for more info on that (but don't harass him :P)

Good news, some additions and fixes to anti-missile turrets, such as faster turn rates, different AI accuracy settings for different things (FINALLY), and a bug that caused them to fire behind the missiles have been made! That means anti-missile turrets will be extremely viable, and should...

This would work wonders with the way logic currently works with factories. Assuming that the counter resets every time the factory is shut down and re-activated (which can be done via logic) then making fully automated factories designed to mass-produce specific ships would become possible!

This is definitely an interesting idea. Should it benefit from dimension bonuses like current reactors do? Or maybe just a grouping bonus, except that the explosion also becomes more violent? There's so many fun possibilities!

^^^ A module system would work wonders, or something like that. A system that lets you customize an astronaut suit would go a long way towards modular and fun astronaut gameplay.

While I certainly agree that it would be a usefull feature there are some alternatives (in no particular order): The tip of a spoon on the W key (a heavy marble works too on some keyboards) A keyboard macro. Jump drives (I strongly recommend this one) Setting 0 dampening in server settings...

Alright, even by strip mining planets ship that size take a very large ammount of time to obtain with the new buy with block mechanic. That's assuming that you're not using shop exploits or dupe bugs to acquire ressources, of course. The server I play on, Shattered Skies, has strict planet...

I'd just like to ask... what do people consider "huge" ships??? Because I've read multiple times that huge ships are easy to manufacture and produce, but that really depends on just how "huge" it is. Anything above 1km long that isn't a blob is NOT a walk in the park, especially not during the...

That looks like a gigantic eye :P How did you make that btw? Spinning ice?

My blood pressure rose when I saw the thread title, already preparing arguments to fully demolish everything in the post. Then I started reading. +1

That new launcher looks gorgeous :O

Depends on the game. If it's not meant to be realistic then yes, most people will dislike suggestions aimed at enforcing realism with no regard for gameplay impacts.

ooooh, the spinning turbines/rotor thingies will look awesome!!!

9. I would like fuel as an alternative/addition to the current system, not a replacement.
