Hyperdrive is planned. It'll be a Capital Ship System. They'll be an upgraded version of the jump drive. Having Hyperdrive lowers the power of your basic thrusters.

Looks cool, but might appear to break at long ranges. Don't worry, the logic isn't broken. It just doesn't update the blocks properly at that range.

They're rare, and it sucks, because they have some of the most valuable capsules. Y0u need them for shields, which are essential. Most of my early ships relied on taking out isanths with a handful of store-bought shield parts, a core near the rear of the ship, and plenty of layers of hull to...

Larimar is pretty rare. Look for systems with heavily diagonal asteroid belts. The ones where it's a full diagonal will have the edge sectors of system within the belt spawn larimar.

I believe there's a "refresh sector" command. Don't know what it is, though. Use the /destroy_entity command to kill all the plates, then restart that sector to get the planet back. Of course, if you've BUILT on the planet and want to save that, you're kind of screwed.

It depends on distance from the star in asteroid belt sectors, along with some slight random variation. Non-belt sectors have completely random but lower asteroid quantities. Also, it's "Chabaz."

Mechs would be cool, but I'm mainly excited by the on-ship elevators and moving doors I'll be able to make. Crusade made some great ones that work for STATIONS, but if that kind of stuff could work on ships...

The chart is accurate except for the passives for pierce and punch- they're actually swapped from what it says on the chart.

You know the effect system? You can run those computers on their own to gain defensive effects. As for healing, there's a support beam. They're currently pretty useless because blocks are rarely left around after a battle with less than full HP. They'll be more useful in the future with the HP...

It was swapped. Pierce gives the armor bonus, Punch gives resistance to Pierce, Punch, and possibly Explosive offensive effects.

Only problem with that is... 50% + 30% + 60% = 140% armor rating. If you remember when the new effect system was first added, you could go over 100% effectiveness with Ion, which made damage HEAL YOU.

Use a nuke to take out the top tower.

Wait. Why does it say it's owned by the Iconian Empire?

This is what I was thinking of. In a group of my 5 (plus me) friends on a private server, our factions split 50/50. We agreed to act at war with each other and play fair, but the universe is kind of dull without extra AIs running around. As always, a server should allow things like faction...

I'd count Cannons as physical weapons. Maybe you could count them as an energy weapon when they were AMCs, but now they're just Cs, so they seem to just be firing a cannon round now. This would put us at a 50/50 split, and since most people use cannons and missiles for weapons, most people would...

Jesus christ, you really did a number on Vanhelzing's pirate station. Faction blocks on stations should really redirect the diamond to overtop of it.

I feel bad for people who don't know about /shop_restock_full. Always tab complete to see if there's anything extra, people.

Also, make sure your computers are linked to your core. Press "C' on the core, and "V" on the primary weapon computer in a P:S:E weapon system.

Very little is known about the HP system. Just that hull tanking will be viable. You can currently get effectively 1000 HP out of each hardened hull block if you use full passive pierce effect. This is effective defense if you layer it up until you get out of "corvette" class ships, at which...

I'd add bubble shields to the starmadedock drinking game, but I think people might sue me for alcohol poisoning.
