Ooh, shiny!

That is a lot better; looks more like a neat shield effect and less like ugly.

By "Old Launcher" do you mean the old patching window, or the Connection Manager? Because the Connection Manager has not yet been replaced. It will eventually be eliminated in favour of an ingame main menu, but at the moment that window will remain. The new launcher only replaces the old...

Just manually change the install path to the old Steam install, then...

I probably won't be purchasing a subscription until this summer, if even then; any time before that would be a waste. But I'd be glad for a bit of help when I get back there.

Managing ship movements like this might be good, but I'm kind of divided on this. All SM really needs is the ability to command your AI ships to follow you, follow something else, or attack something... But then, a full-on capital ship command mode that lets you dictate directions and maneuvers...

As I've said before, I personally wouldn't mind if orbital bombardments weren't possible in the first place, but it wouldn't be hard to use the same mapping system that is used to determine relative position of ships, to calculate where a projectile would land. There are other issues with this...

These planets aren't instanced...

This is one of those Space Engineers features that deserve to be in StarMade on their own merit. I don't want Space Engineers's clunky block rotation system, I don't want Space Engineers's lame systems design, I don't want Space Engineers's ugly art style, and I certainly don't want the 12 FPS I...

Ugh cannot see it. School internet blocks Imgur (Not Puush or images hosted on the site though)

Wat? I've been checking the dev builds every day at files.star-made.org/build/dev and there is no new build out yet since last release cycle... How the heck are there fancy AI options? Have the builds moved? Was the launcher passing arguments (or not passing arguments) to the game that activate...

Haha... You wouldn't be on the wrong side for another 3 years or so, the way things're going.

I'm the only kind the game supports: A builder

So that's why my test base burned up a while ago...

I've been 'attacked' by shuttles and docking tubes.

Yeah, with LOD and saving optimization (store a seed for unloaded chunks or plates!) planets like that could be alright. Exactly twice that size seems optimal.

Make enemy stations established in faction territory (including pirate bases) drain a configurable amount of faction points every turn. If you can't/don't want to do this because of future faction mechanics changes, then here's one: Give Scanners as UI, even if it's just one button, so that...

I'm guessing that all the link networks will need dynamic optimization to determine how much data has to be passed for any given connection or set thereof?

DAMN! C/V linking would make the permissions a lot more usable. ATM adding proper rank permissions to everything would have screwed up half my designs and devices, and so I just had to set the homebase back to having permission for everyone in the faction.

There is no ideal solution to this, but "zero-point tech" that requires reverse-engineering through some kind of research system is going to be probably the lesser of three evils. #1 is just an insult to every dedicated engineer who has spent hours, days, maybe even weeks building, optimizing...
