      life support systems

      What if players could just select parts of their ship to be "atmosphere"? Then, if the atmosphere has any completely empty blocks next to it ("space" blocks), the atmosphere block and all atmosphere blocks touching it become inactive, and players without helmets will start to take damage. If the...

      Optimal turret use

      Slightly embedding a turret in the ship by docking it in a shallow dugout area can help with that.

      I disagree, we've only recently got more information on the topic. now is the perfect time to begin discussion.

      Upcoming Crafting System Update Discussion

      The new ingots and capsules were released less than a week ago, what are you even saying?

      Shielding

      I'm a supporter of charged shields continuing to drain a bit of power as some sort of "upkeep cost." And yes, conversations are PMs.

      Fuel, ALL opinions accepted and wanted!

      I don't think fuel should be added at all. It's constant micromanagement, which is something I'd like to avoid. It's one of the main reasons I don't like Minecraft's survival mode anymore, with its food system.

      Optimal turret use

      Turrets that fit on a single docking block are really only useful for a helper turret on a fighter (I have a nice little design for 7x7x7 boxes, but it's kind of outdated) or on ground vehicles, where the turret is usually manned by a player and not AI.

      Thruster changes

      Actually, we'll be dividing up our thrusters among the various directions in the future. This was confirmed. You'll have 100% to split among the various directions. Smaller craft will be able to afford putting more thrust in their forward and only a little auxillery thrust in the others, as they...

      Shielding

      While that is a great feature, it should still be a priority for there to be a balanced default for people to use, as most servers are going to want to stick to that to avoid alienating players with existing ships they'd like to bring in.

      Adding ship-types

      Wouldn't this be better solved with more advanced, optional tutorials that the players view and learn from?

      Upcoming Crafting System Update Discussion

      aceface How is this old? As far as I can tell this is the first thread on the subject and it's a relatively new subject, so what gives?

      Upcoming Crafting System Update Discussion

      This is the thread to discuss the new crafting system, which involves the new ingots, crystals, and capsules.

      Shielding

      I agree that capacity is a bit too low per block, but I disagree with no regen during combat (favored rapidly firing ships) and shields covering turrets.

      Making around 40million dollars every 3 minutes

      If it's making big blocks of items, saving it to the catalog, buying it, scraping and selling, and repeating, we all already know that.

      Adding ship-types

      The thruster speeds in the new update were bugged. Fighters will be faster, and cap ships will need big blocks of engines to move at decent rates. I'm saying this because I feel this thread has something to do with that issue. I don't like the idea of dividing ships into different classes based...

      No "Space Friction" When Accellerating

      Guys, the speeds are bugged. Read what Yetimania sent. It's a post by a dev on the matter.

      Docked turrets get parent ships sheild coverage.

      First off, that isn't rape. Don't call destroying turrets that. The role of smaller ships is to weaken larger ships so that their own larger ships can take down the enemy large ship with fewer risks. The best way to do this is for small ships to perform anti-turret attacks, to weaken the...

      StarMade 0.157 (optimization & fixes)

      Can we stop arguing about lightsabers? Anyway, maybe lightsabers have a really powerful battery or a micronuclear reactor or something in the hilt. I mean, is it ever actually said that they run infinitely forever?

      Power crystals.

      We're getting changes to the economy and buying ships. We're probably going to buy ships using blocks at shipyards large enough to fit the ship. We'll most likely be able to use plex storages for this function. Yes, we would still need to wait for stats to be balanced with a limited power...

      The Lightning Sphere; Pvp Combat Arena LiveStream (Successor to the Thunder Dome)

      The thunder dome was great, but I feel like an issue with these games is that everyone just builds a big cube. I guess a smaller ship gives you a better chance to dodge missiles and cannonfire, though. Are swarm missiles allowed? Because they'd be pretty OP in this. Also, is it illegal to have...
