They do use unique IDs, and for that matter unique textures. Check the block config and t002. "Nothing is impossible" is an unfortunately common misconception. Without tons of IDs being used up or a laggier block system (and, like, a year and a half of redoing existing mechanics to fit it) you...

Remember that the ship in construction out the window is just poofing random blocks into existence; they don't need to exist in the recipe. They're just an abstraction. What the shipyard seems to do is take the total % of blocks filled, pick random blocks from the blueprint, and spawn them in...

I never said a fighter. Without the HP system penalty thing, large ships would probably just outlast fighter wings and whatnot. I still believe weapons should scale on a curve...

It would definitely impact smaller ships trying to beat larger ships... Very very counterproductive.

Actually I think that constant updating and checking for holes is the very performance issue that has to be solved.

Actually the 3x rule really only applies sometimes. Ukurunu, Athala, Anakara, Imindri, Isirin(y)i, Okono, Enserea... All sound fine to me. Just really really really vowel-heavy but that's besides the point...

Lol no Good leadership or no, the only factions that really stay alive seem to be the engineering factions, as there's basically nothing else to do. Even my faction quickly devolved into an engineering faction, for the most part.

I still want my transporter-like undeathinator... :P

If you go on Shattered Skies and look up our faction ("The Aethi Imperium") in the faction menu, it shows the location of our homebase. At any rate, yes, by all means, you can still be part of the faction.

Turn on Mirror Cubes in the advanced build options.

Stairs would require a new block shape and IDK if it's worth that. However, a ladder could be made by modifying astronaut collision behavior with a single special type of quarter slab, and I see no reason why we shouldn't do that.

I want this... sooo much. I'd probably just go through the universe fixing shitty system names. And all the Aethi claimed systems would get Aethi names... And... well, immersion. Bonus points if the "Entered system <blah blah>" message when crossing a system border was changed to also show the...

Not always possible; certainly not always practical.

Why not Drone Cake? Because that looks... That's a Drone Cake.

I think they're talking about planet types that are completely overtaken by whatever the planet's inhabitants did to it, to the point where natural features are either gone or largely gone so that the tiny areas where there is still foliage can be filled in by a single defined type, probably Terran.

It is a bug, essentially, or at least missing optimization where there should be optimization.

Sounds... like a bug? or otherwise something else that can be optimized out.

...Which will be fixed by next June or so; the devs already have a plan for this. What Scriptkitty mentions is a very valid problem that nobody's mentioned... It would also alleviate the awkward issue of people standing around pointing guns at each other because they forgot that they had a gun...

Agreed. This has been a massive issue ever since the first blueprint change, and nothing's been done to alleviate it since all the way back then... The things being added are great, but issues like this are what cause the community to dwindle to just builders, and stop any meaningful faction war...

Yeah. Why shouldn't a turret have storage anyway? I could see a few other uses for this as well, actually '~'
