Wasn't Beam : Minelayer going to be a Charge Laser?

I prefer the skin shields over bubble shields. Seeing impacts ripple across the surface of the ship looks cooler than it hitting an identical bubble on every ship.

Since when?

Yeah, I think I agree with the original post instead of this. How about bullets from turrets just can't pass through what they're docked to? Sorry you didn't make yourself clear. I thought you were referring to the attachment point to the main ship, not the turret barrel blocks, which aren't...

one for no rotation? you mean DOCKING POINTS? Which we already have?

So just make it so the body can't clip? The body is only moving along a single plane, not three dimensionally. The barrels and body both can't clip the mothership. Why shouldn't people be able to make turrets that only rotate along a single axis, if they wanted that for some reason?

I think the weapon blocks should be able to be on the barrel and the body, but the output for the weapons should need to be on the barrel. Or, you could have the output on the body or the barrel? The body can still only rotate along one axis.

IRL, the turning of something does depend on it's dimensions- too much inertia on one axis will cause it to rip apart. However, for gameplay purposes, it should be mass based.

Maybe if the turning speed was based on mass instead of dimensions, doom cubes would be less of an issue.

Half spiders already existed, they were just give some already existing AI from angry NPCs and made to spawn in stations using the existing code for pirate waves.

You can already use open plex doors as force fields. They'll stop cannon fire, just not missiles.

In that case, let's have rapid cannons do 800,000 damage per shot with a single pair of rapid cannons. I mean, anyone can have it, so it's not overpowered, right?

I think water should also be non-solid to players and creatures, but not to ships (all the blocks are extremely bouyant or something and can't sink) The real reason for this, of course, is so water blocks don't clip inside ships when they try and land on bodies of water.

100% ion meant you took 0 shield damage on non-ion weapons. If you went 0ver 100% you'd GAIN SHIELDS when taking damage. No thanks, that was OP as hell. The 60% cap is a good thing.

Rated old because this is so old. Randomly generated creatures on planets are confirmed. @Omni has already done some of it. Also, visit a newly generated space station with the new update. Plenty of creatures there.

What a compelling argument.

Except that Ion only needs 1/20th and not 1/10th for max efficiency. Personally, I think that all 1/4oth modules should be nerfed to 1/60th, 1/20th modules to 1/40th, and 1/10th modules to 1/20th. Power costs also need a serious nerf. I agree the costs are a little too high, I just think...

Have you considered that you aren't MEANT to make a ship with all the effects?

Push pulse generally does this, as it pushes the blocks it hits, making things spiral somewhat uncontrollably, especially combined with the EMP effect.

Does anyone else seriously not see 1/100 as an issue? I can make a 100 block ship, and it would only need two blocks (one for a module, one for a computer) to go 200% server speed. I think that 1/10th is a bit too punishing (although the 1/10th systems are still ok at 1/20th), and I think I'd...
