I believe that passive STOP or passive PULL is planned to increase turn rate.

I'm considering scrapping the "average armor" idea, but on the other hand, shouldn't players be rewarded, especially in survival, for using the more powerful and expensive armor? Maybe it should only include blocks that have an armor rating. Hull hardening passive effects could give you an...

It would harden the hull as it currently does, but on both Hull and Block damage instead of just Block as it does.

I think beams should be the anti-missile weapon. They feel a little lack-luster compared to cannons, and they could use a bonus.

Beams. Beams are the lasers.

It wouldn't really be a cube anymore then, would it? That'd actually be and 18 sided octadecahedron, which more than the current 12 of a dodecahedron.

I'm thinking the cone of fire for the shotguns needs to be more focused. EDIT- Burst fire would be cool, too.

http://oldsite.star-made.org/content/starmade-dev-update-why-spherical-planets-dont-fit-block-world I suggest you look at this news post that @schema made way back in August 2013, over a year ago. He attempted both Spherical and Cube planets, with varying degrees of issues. Eventually, we ended...

The issue with this is that it still creates near-useless sized pulses. a 100 block long pulse array would only produce a bubble 150m across, which would be tiny. I'm thinking something along the lines of X+Y+Z, but on a slowly decreasing curve. So, while a 100+50+50 array would produce a 200m...

The EMP Outage effect was removed? I remember testing an Orion Pulse Engine during .16-something and I was still getting EMP'd. When did this happen?

The radius of the other pulse types could be increased.

Maybe the game could just simulate drone ships moving in unloaded sector? Just have a small bit of server power to say "x drone mined y amount of asteroids during z time the sector was unloaded and got a of mineral one and b of mineral 2"

That would be very cool, but I'd still like there to be omni-directional pulses. Since this would be much further range, maybe this would be great for the Pulse + Beam combo?

Not quite a necro here. I like the idea, but I'm having trouble visualising it. What would make this different from a shaped cannon projectile?

I think both pulse effects are still extremely underwhelming. They need to have their range massively increased.

Sniper Cannons or Siege Cannons + Punch Through would give you the same effect. No support.

The thrust percentages makes the difference between large and small ships more distinct. You aren't going to be changing it for navigation and during battle. I believe it's been changed now so that it will be 5% in each direction, with the ability to boost this with push modules.

No. There'd be gates highways everywhere, and I don't like the idea either. I don't see why everyone wants hyperspace/slip space tubes to enter.

Space Engine isn't a game. It's just an engine showing off a possible feature. It would be a lot less smooth in multiplayer with players and ships and battles and creatures everywhere.

Personally, I think armor should be skin-based, with slots that can be augmented with various modules, and guns mini-block based.
