YAAAS. We need these to be a thing. Like, now.

This is beautiful.

Agreed on all counts; this would allow for a lot more flexibility and cooler visual effects on ships, stations, planets, and in minigames.

Turrets should only partially share shields with the mothership, and the amount should curve to a cap. After a certain amount of shielding, turrets should need their own shields systems to have any further shield capacity or regeneration.

Any teleporters should be either astronaut-only, or have a hard size limit of 7x7x7. No power limit is needed for size, but there should be a max transport range and it should require maybe 10,000 energy per person or per 1-2 mass. Also, there should definitely be a (non-reduce-able) cooldown.

Yeah... I really want INTER-SHIP transporters, but an intra-ship transporter just seems kind of lame. If you really have corridors that take too long to walk through, do what I did and build a grav tube. Falling is really fast. Besides, we'll be able to make lifts soon, which should help too.

...It would be nice if decorative pipes could be turned. The fact that animated blocks can't be rotated will have to be handled sometime... And soon would be a good time.

After playing on EE for a bit, I can say that I officially LOVE the new waypoint saving. Now I don't have to look up coords from the map every time I want to get from Aethis to Auan Taara or from spawn back home. :D ...Now if the crashes people get when they open the nav menu could be fixed...

This... this is amazing. Though I've been watching its progress from the dev builds (I'm a Bug-Reporter, I had access to the GUI during its development), that doesn't diminish its amazingness. Nav waypoints, station spawning, new fluid conduits and stuff... Oh, and...

Maybe it was to absorb some of the nitrogen... Remember, we may breathe oxygen but if we were in a pure-oxygen atmosphere (or close to that) it wouldn't be very good for us.

My god, that's incredibly amazingly awesomely overrated-adjective-ly cool. O_o

I will be pleased when you stop posting in such a cryptic way, Nautilus. :P

...How about both? :P (And if you want a third option... Some kind of purple wave/plasma-looking energy, or even a red laser beam, inside the pipe.) Uh, sort of, but I can think of so many uses outside of Star Trek warp cores... Personally, I want them to put behind metal grilles, combined...

...If (and only if) enhancers aren't a thing. But they are, sadly, and even if not you'd still have to somehow get the mission pod and its pylon into the docking area without turning off the docking module... Which is impossible, sadly.

YESSSS! Mail Computer is a thing! :D ...Also, the decorative water conduit block is amazing. I will probably be using that for... stuff. But another conduit with some kind of red or orange liquid might be great too, that way we could have, like, reactant conduits, or maybe matter and...

I would assume not. Regardless of which is the mothership, the dimensions of the enhancers needed to dock the saucer to the engineering section probably wouldn't fit in either part. Besides, you'd be sacrificing the advantages of such a massive ship (Shield pool, for one thing) for a gimmick...

Amantes , I grant you the Aethi Medal of Being Really Awesome for almost single-handedly restoring the Aethi fleet following the Borg attack. Se arasai ke. I congratulate you.

I wasn't saying it was planned, I was just saying that I don't really want it until we have a legitimate reason to have automated antipersonnel weaponry. Otherwise it'd more be a trolling tool than anything else since players die so easily.

I feel like this will have many more illegitimate uses than legitimate ones... No thanks for now; call me back when we have boarding mechanics.
