I personally prefer the dodecahedrons. However, there are obviously people who prefer the old type, so a (non-default) config option should be added to allow old planets to generate. And as for the turrets, schema said he plans on revamping the docking/turret (+ a new rail system) after the GUI...

First off, numerous suggestions have suggested ways for fuel to work. Some sort of new ore, a regenerating oil liquid on planets, refining water, and harvesting hydrogen from stars are all suggestions I've heard for how it should work. Secondly, I've offered my suggestions on fuel on fuel...

You could do things like make burst firing weapons, trigger lighting effects and doors (imagine a cannon with a glowing bar down the side that charges up as it reloads, or a missile system that opens doors to release missiles, then closes) and other things. If you could do things like detect...

Suggested approximately 1 billion times. Thanks for using the search bar, or even just looking through an active discussion (there's at least one right now) and just dropping it there.

Why are you firing so many missiles? That's a ridiculous amount. Half, or even just quarter, would be much less laggy for whatever poor bastard is on the receiving end of that swarm missile blast.

I hope the stuff is combined as well. I'm just saying, it isn't likely.

You probably wouldn't be able to have functional thrusters on rails.

If your ships relied on nukes as the main damage dealer, you probably should have seen this coming anyway, with the introduction of PD. Anyway, there is nothing keeping you from scrapping for massive amounts of blocks or just refitting them to a different weapon system.

There haven't really been any major balancing changes since the blueprint update, so.... You were using outdated ships even before the blueprint update? That wasn't very smart of you.

We have one 600m turret. You have capitals, titans, battleships, and other assorted smaller ships in high amounts, as well as tons of stockpiled blocks, most likely.

It looks like a space station, but it's probably up from a planet plate, then has the connection severed, to make it look like an orbiting station. Plus, then it has natural gravity that effects ships and everything. Very useful. I made a similar "station" above my home planet in SP.

They aren't sleeping, the lights in their faces are keeping them up.

Did you accidentally replace your hull with disintegrators? In all seriousness, though, that sounds like a very high powered nuke. Was this in singleplayer, or on public multiplayer where someone with a strong nuke-ship could have snuck up on you with a radar jammer and blown you up?

I don't really like to idea of completely replacing what we currently have. Selling paint is probably a lot less lucrative than selling full hull blocks. Plus, this would probably take up more inventory slots for paint capsules.

I'm... WARMING UP... to the idea of heat in the game. In fact, I myself suggested it over a year ago on the old forums, as part of a railgun weapon idea. However, I have to ask... how do you define the "inside" and "outside" of a ship?

I kind of alternate between liking the idea of fuel and hating it. On the one hand, it'd probably add a lot to the economy, but it'd also be annoying at times. If a fuel system were added, I'd love to physically fill tanks on a ship with liquid fuels. That would look so unbelievably cool, to...

Thanks! This is a nice screenshot. I'll add it in as a header to chapter one. Thinking of taking any more?

Not exactly. On the faction forums, you don't need to have cold hard stats to get people to join you. If there was a global tally of members, "war victories" (however you mean to count those... Victory is rarely something you can easily define in war), etc, those small factions that just gain...

Don't really like the idea of a global faction list. It'd just boost big factions bigger while small factions are ignored. I do like the idea of a faction hub station in servers, tough.

Have you HAD any battles? The way stats are currently, most battles between similarly equipped ships last between 5-20 seconds.
