You can't put factories on ships, so no modules for that. :\ (However, things like storage and defensive modules might work.)

I think we'll have to rename it to "Update Issues & Feedback" or something; "complaints" kind of is a little too direct/negative Hopefully, we won't have too many more updates like this that will cause tons of complaints, so this won't be necessary... Technically, we already have update news...

I absolutely LOVE the awesome new space backgrounds, but sometimes they seem to be a bit much... Having multicolored light shows surrounding every single star system is a bit weird. I would recommend making it a bit more likely for a system to have a less bright and/or nonexistent random skybox.

Actually, one division of their military force did. Their higher-ups didn't quite feel the same about humans, which is why they are still attacking the Federation in the storyline of STO.

...But what if you WANT to cruise ("coast") while not inside your core? Sometimes I like leaving my core room to go organize my PlexStorages in the cargo room, or something else similar...

Nah. I don't think anyone wants to use blocks that are visually just the old T1 ores as 'decoration.' The old T1 ores do just as well for the time being. And what's decorative about frustrating people with a currently imbalanced thrust system? :P

It's not a bug. The new crafting system isn't done, and honestly I have no idea why it and the also-unfinished balance changes were stuffed into the patch. Thank you and some others for actually realizing that end users changing the config isn't a solution to anything. I find it hard to believe...

Actually, it's a rendering oddity with atmosphere shell layers not scaling properly. The result is that from certain angles, the last atmosphere layer prevents the tops of tall objects from rendering, resulting in them appearing "cut off." Depending on vantage point and planet size, this can be...

I agree. If a crafting system still isn't done, why push the unfinished pieces to a release build prematurely? The same could be said of thrusters: You are going to change the masses of blocks, but if it isn't done yet, then why make everyone's ships extremely borked in the meantime?

Problem is, Stakh, it doesn't make ships "take longer for the other half" and only decrease top speed on "ships with too few thrusters." It makes many ships which had more than enough thrusters incapable of going faster than 20-50 speed.

...In reality, a ship can move as fast as it wants, it will just take longer to accelerate and take more energy if it's big. However, in Starmade, energy is infinite (which is good!), so...

I do mean Linear Damping. "Space friction" is just an easier way to say it that more people will understand.

After some thinking about it, I like the first 'new' change. The further nerfs just made things harder on everyone for no good reason, but the boxdim thrusters were a bit OP. EDIT: After discussing things with Tn44 (of all people!) on SM chat, I've began to agree that the only real issue is...

I did read it. That still doesn't fix everything. Ships still often get stuck at below-cap speeds, though not as much.

I, however, feel that the nerf was well-meant but EXTREMELY heavy-handed, especially considering that we need to REMOVE shield blocks to add the new regen blocks. Shield capacity wasn't actually too overpowered before; the only issue was that the shields regenerated way too fast. A smaller nerf...

...However, this still doesn't fix the space friction issue. I'd recommend that either: a) Schema adds "Space Anchors" as one person suggested, or b) A space friction-toggling block, which might be easier to implement, was added.

Yeah, I believe that Undo is probably the awesomest feature I've seen implemented, besides possibly the new texture packs and planets.

Yeah, sorry about the rage. I think I'll just go up and overwrite my posts up there... :P

Once again, Cal, sorry about all the raging. It just seemed totally ridiculous at the time.

Never mind guys; Cal messed up the config, he put a 0.1 where there's supposed to be a 1.1; thrust will be a bit better when a patch is released, though the diminished returns will still apply. Smaller ships should work a lot better, and larger ones should... still be slow, but be a bit more...
