...Then you'll love the new weapons system. You can make Ion weapons (Shieldbusters), EMP weapons, etc...

No.

I was joking. However... They DID announce the change a long time ago...

D1000's with a Beam slave system become seeking missiles. Lrn2play n00b :P

It's been in for a little while now... But yeah... it's in the most recent builds...

Since the new kinetic effects don't work with shields up, what if a manual shield disable switch was implemented, via either the structure menu or some kind of shield controller block? Perhaps certain environmental things could force your shields to shut off too, like nebulae and perhaps some...

Yeah, I came expecting the Scimitar (Reman warbird from ST: Nemesis) and found... this awesome thing.

Um, why the hell don't kinetics work through shields? You've just ruined everyone's dreams of tractor beams, since there's no way to voluntarily lower your shields. (Also, they seem to throw things with a bit too much force to make for decent tractor beams.) EDIT: Waaait one second. Why not...

You don't need to verify whether or not it can dock at all... If your ship's docking tube or whatever can't fit somewhere, the clamps can't touch those on what you're docking to so there's no need for fancy area calculations. "Cheating" by ramming into things at high speed might happen, but...

It was completely useless, and took up as much space as a massive suggestion post. And why did you have to reply to a mod complaint with a massive, somewhat whiny image?

One problem: It won't really kill giganticism. It'll just encourage people to make idiotic-looking, uncreative, retarded doomcubes to make the most of their maximum box dimensions.

I find it hard to believe that that would effect performance that much... If things like that hurt performance, then this game probably shouldn't continue development until computers can handle that stuff, or Schema could just put a configurable size limit on docked objects. I've already had...

We definitely need signs; I just wonder when Schema will finally implement them. It would be neat if he copied the Minecraft update that added signs and implemented sliding doors and ladders along with the signs.

That can and will be fixed. People want Star Wars/Star Trek-style warp, partially because, well, it's really cool-looking. I'd like to see it implemented, but be disabled by default. RP servers and other people who want it can have it, and Faction PvP servers can not have it if they feel that...

Clamps would have to 'mate' with each other, and I'd think that the larger a ship gets, the more clamps would be needed to preserve a solid connection. The way I see it, a certain amount of clamps for your mass would give you a solid lock onto whatever you're docked to. Decrease the amount of...

Yes; now stop spamming emoticons, AceFace. Just because you have the word 'face' in your username doesn't mean you get to cover a thread in faces. :P

The way I feel, anything should be able to dock to anything else of any size really... but home stations shouldn't grant docked ships and turrets magical instant invulnerability, they should just share shields.

For better or worse, Rhino, that's kinda-sorta-but-not-really-but-kinda why. Schema doesn't seem to care very much about creating any kind of concrete backstory, he just makes a few vague 'demo' story elements to show off some of the capabilities of the game, and lets the players create all of...

Mine was just the first simple thing that came to mind... A plus with four squares in the corners of the box dimension.

Merp, too late; IMO Windows 8.1 is an improvement in all areas besides apparently this anyway. Let's hope that the next update fixes this. :p
