It would not have to exist on segments occupied by 'continents,' no.

Block water would be good, and that's probably planned, but we'll need a spherical, non-block water surface between continents. Two different kinds of water... A bit odd, but it can be made to work and (again) is still a better solution than our current planets.

Water will be changed, this is complicated but it is planned. However, intercontinental water probably wouldn't be/shouldn't be blocks, necessarily, if it's going to wrap around a sphere or sectional globe shape... Otherwise there will be strange border clipping at the segment edges and we're...

50% (Less, I think) is a heck of a lot better than what we have now. Consider: If the most your GPU can feasibly handle currently is R300 planets, then with loading optimizations you can now handle R600 planets. But this is kind of off-topic.

Nope. The memory and framerate issues are a symptom of somewhat derpy/unfinished loading. Even without changing planets at all, if the game didn't load segments that you literally cannot see from where you are within the limits of physics (without a build block) there would be far less issues -...

Warping on a sphere that transitions into a plane could become a lot less perceptible with a large enough planet... Particularly with the LoD system I tend to blabber on about a lot. By the time you saw the blocks, you'd be on a flat plane and it wouldn't even be warped.

It's more or less a bug. For now, point to a block near the core and hit O to sit, then enter the core. When you exit you'll be put on that block rather than getting dumped out of the ship.

I still don't understand why we can't have planets as an instance of some sort; most of the problems people talk about can be dealt with relatively easily. Loading screens: Starmade (somewhat) smoothly loads sectors full of blocks all of the time - Why would we need a loading screen just...

Might be useful to cite some examples (as well as the source of the name - Dr. PLEX) here. Also the fact that our current Plex Doors are a holdover from the older naming. Anyway, Cubenaught - A large doomcube, the size of a typical dreadnaught or titan. See doomcube.

Agreed, this x1000. This has been vaguely "planned" for a really long time; seeing as it's not a very huge feature it would be nice to see it sometime soon. schema , any idea when this might be and/or what update this might be integrated with?

You know, you could just dock by flying into the shipyard... As soon as the anchor 'collides' with the ship and it can fit it can slide into place.

Currently the game will draw segments of planet plates that cannot possibly be seen from wherever you are, causing pointless FPS loss and, on lower segment draw limits, wasting drawn segments that could be used on nearby ships that are far more important and useful to have visible. This needs to...

Uh, since when the fuck did we ever need to edit our posts to remove profanity? o_O Regardless, no, there's no way to attach it to the station. It's a ship core location marker, why should that be logically possible? If it was, it would look weird anyway... If you docked a ship there would be...

You can have a titan that's 200 meters tall. Just needs to be big and flat. Pancake titan?

There's no need to remove cores, we just need to be able to place equivalent blocks elsewhere and most issues should be completely fixed. After that, all we need is the aesthetic change from players being sucked into cores to player models remaining visible when they're using a block like a core...

Yes, but that means no uploading blueprints for conversion into designs...

Tag needs changing to "implemented," kupu .

Yeah. It would be awesome if we could somehow get cooldown info off a computer... That way we could have a "charging" logic animation timed to a long-reload weapon like a beam/pulse.

Yeah, not a bad idea. The "condition" blocks could also tie into logic.

Hmm, you know, once this is implemented there could be a server option to disable the catalog altogether. Would have some interesting results.
