I don't really like just having a mass based system over the current bounding box. With the bounding box you know exactly how big the docks are and do not have to worry about clipping issues as much. It's not hard to figure out how big a ships required docking size is, and in fact I rate my...

Well when the system is in place for the rest of the player base to have the ability to choose what stations populate their universe it will be a simple matter for the devs to expand on what is in vanilla. Before that it is kind of a low priority and pointless, IMHO, for a temporary change to...

Docking enhancers is a balancing system, needing to have large stations to dock large ships stops people from docking invincible monsters to faction home bases. You also don't need to have the station be as big as the ship you are docking as each enhancer extends a dock two meters. It all...

Players/server operators should be able to specify what spawns and not just these boring static structures so I really don't see the need for this minor change. I would much rather specify a sment to spawn so I can make my own stations and have them populate the galaxy. As for gravity, Jimmy...

Yeah shields are really wonky right now. I jumped in my destroyer and it has twice as much shields as it did before, but I could only charge the shields in clumps of about 1000. I sat there and sat there and my shields never charged. The same was true in my fighter I tested. Because shields...

I always find it amusing/annoying when people complain about FPS drops when it is still at completely playable levels. This happened all the time in minecraft, "OH I used to get 300FPS now I only get 250, this update is bullshit" And there is me, I am happy when my FPS stays above 15.

I felt the same way about the old textures so I did something about it. *Insert Shameless Self Plug* http://starmadedock.net/threads/true-64x64-default-pack.345/

I personally don't like how it's tiled for a single direction, this creates inconsistency. You could have long or short lines depending on the structure. The base texture itself is great though if it was broken up better.

Please by all means make your argument instead of just disagreeing my posts and restated opinion. Why is having pirates get stronger the farther you go the best option? As far as I see it it is predictable and boring. It doesn't encourage exploration and infact will discourage it if the...

Not so much completely random. AI factions could randomly control their own sectors where they have larger ships available. This would work if you have a server with two factions (trade guild and pirates) as well as work if you have half a dozen factions. What if you run a startrek server...

Thank you, I am really happy with how the hulls turned out. As for the future of this pack I'm not sure where to take it. It is impossible to keep the initial goal with all the new textures coming out in the next release. I have been experimenting with a few options for the various computers...

Day 6 Speed Build: I don't have a video for day 5 yet, the footage I did capture was already an hour long before I gave up recording. I plan on trying something different for the video though. I don't know if I'll get around to doing day 7 and I can't make it for the lineup on Tuesday. I...

I have not been paying attention to if shields were changed, all I am looking at is the difference between my fighter current release and my fighter dev build. Pre-dev build in three shots I can kill the target but in the current release I cannot even scratch it. Dog fights are pointless as...

I like the new weapon systems, I look forward to being able to tweak them to my specific needs, I love how rapid fire cannons look firing from my destroyers point defence guns... but as the balance sits now cannons are useless. My main assault fighter runs out of power before it can break a...

Finally finished my Day 5 ship, I'm going to a friends wedding tonight but hopefully I'll have time to at least finish day 6 before the lineup tomorrow.

Cannons are still so useless. Huge power requirements and poor damage output. My test platform, my destroyer, now cannot even fire more than one slug at a time. I just sit there and the defence turrets cannot even kill the pathetic Isanth-VI. I turned a bunch of the turrets into rapid fire...

Is the plan still to remove SD-KBs and SD-BBs or are they going to be adapted for the new system as well, I would love to see scattershot and rapid fire SD-BBs. Last test I ran the AI also wasn't taking advantage of my SD-BB turrets and my Destroyers unadapted cannon turrets couldn't even kill...

I won't be releasing my ODP until the weapon update comes out and I have a new set of turrets for it.

Now Now I don't feel so bad about not getting a video done yesterday. I left yesterday at 8am, was only home for an hour for lunch, and didn't get home again until 11pm which I took out the trash and promptly fell asleep. I have a concept for the lander challenge so I will be building this...
