...So I\'m not the only one that plays/played RoM? ...Just a random observation.

Particularly in the new update, I woulnd\'t even consider getting INTO a small turret anyway when they\'re often the first thing an enemy will shoot at and are really tiny... That\'s what Bobby AIs are for. In a large ship, you can have turrets with enough space, and enough shielding, to safely...

You and I (and everyone else) both know that most sci-fi ships are longer back-to-front than any other way, fairly large, and still turn fast enough for it to be fun to watch. People come to expect that in a sci-fi game. I built my ships that way, just like most other people on Starmade. (Unless...

\'Nuff said. Pilot seats, which wouldn\'t collide with players the way I imagine it, would fix this problem. The turret thing is a good point, though... but they would be orientable, like gravity, so you could simply walk out of the turret if it\'s well-designed.

Agreed... That\'s the one thing I hate about the lighting engine. (Besides shadows being weird sometimes, and tetras/pentas being shaded totally wrong.)

I was thinking more about beams... AMC bolts, actually, could remain white, now that I\'m thinking about it. Everything else should definitely be colorable - including shields!

Nice picture... IMO, that should totally be possible. Weapon colors should be configured through the structure menu.

Stations should be movable, just like ships (But far more slowly.) however there shouldn\'t be a \"flight mode\" for them. Rather, some kind of thruster console block should be used. It would open a half-screen GUI with little thrust arrows, and you could move the station - at about 5-15 km/h -...

Does this count as a necrobump?

...Aww, now I don\'t get to just disable pirate AI instead of fighting them, and I don\'t get to temporarily resurrect dead pirate ships to fight for me...

Yay, a release candidate! Now fix system borders booting people out of gravity, derpy thrust, NPCs unloading and not reloading, and not being able to switch from the AI panel to the inventory panel without switching to a different tab first, and I\'ll take it as a release.

This is part of the reason why I always suggest having a pilot\'s seat. It would take up two blocks, and would not collide with the player, so when you exit the control view you\'d find yourself standing where the chair is. No more strange issue of the game deciding where you respawn, and no...

IMO, the entire concept of a \"sector\" should change. Sectors should be large cubes of space spanning multiple star systems (Around 3 or 4 usually, but they could contain nothing but a void or some asteroids in some cases), but star systems should have (randomly generated) names (which factions...

Players get upset about balancing anyway... this wouldn\'t be any different, really. The only issue is if Schema were to screw up the balancing, as devs have been sometimes known to do with character classes, and piss off a good amount of players, but knowing him, it probably wouldn\'t happen...

IMO, entire power systems should explode, but should give a lot more power - if you want a ship with idiotic amounts of free power (e.g. for cloaking), you can have it, but at the risk of the entire thing going up in smoke and debris at the slightest antimatter poke, ram, or AI missile getting...

...The old light/shadow gradient range wasn\'t that bad. The only issue lies in the way things are shaded. If corners didn\'t bathe themselves in derpy, irremovable shadow, wedges didn\'t block out all light even on empty sides, and tetra/penta lighting wasn\'t so terribad, the old light balance...

- right mouse click on docking beam now igores activatable blocks (doors) *Girly squee*

Yep, all of this would be really nice... Then I could stop being a pilot and start being a captain. As much as I dislike ship cores \"eating\" people when they enter them (WE NEED PILOT SEATS!), if it\'s just an AI bot I won\'t notice quite as much. Oh, and I won\'t die when the ship blows up.

Instead of having docking instantly become unusable just because of the bounding box intersecting some blocks, how about just making the docked ship\'s bounding box (\"blue box\") determine whether it can dock or not: If its bounding box would intersect with blocks, do not allowit to dock, but...
