Cool I didn't know that! Thanks I will try it. I'll also note whether the asteroid re-spawns as a whole or grows slowly over time or neither. The other closer cinnibar, lukrah, chabaz and varis asteroids all seem to re-spawn, but I haven't yet confirmed for sure whether they grow slowly or...

What is this ship preview interface you show in your post please.

Found one in the neighboring system! One lonely asteroid with nothing around it for sectors. Had 15k larimar and like 150 each of rammet and sertise. Less than 1%. Looks like building shield capacitors will be slow going. Better off hunting and salvaging pirates...

That's useful info thanks. Now to figure out where a start is and what makes a corner of a system a corner. Haha so new. I'll get there. Thanks again!

Very inspirational. Your turrets on the nacelle alone are almost half the size of my frigate Thor. Impressed.

Thanks Panpiper that's very useful info. But my current salvagers are 38 deep. Even at 8 deep how do you prevent the beam being interrupted by the forward positioned alternate set unless you're firing directly forward? Know what i mean? To be separate beams and output they must not be...

Thor now has an escape pod, escape pod bay, and separate explosive-bolted hatch that blasts free by itself in the event of escape pod being activated. To clarify - the pilot detonates it, then it blasts free under it's own pressure, clearing the way for the escape pod to jettison out. In the...

Oh ok I didn't know that. In that case that's even more of a compliment so thank you ToyotaSupra. Here are a few more screenshots, taken from the main new post here. (You can see more shots in that post). Core, looking back through an open blast door towards the ramp up to the Bridge, and...

I will learn Jump Drives very soon. Story-ways it makes sense that once the frigate is launched and goes hunting things that it creates a need to develop a faster way to travel, so I intend to learn about them then either retro-fit this ship or build a new fast scout or something that has both...

Ok well I've built a couple of ships now, plus of course my shipyard, but I'm still a very new player. I only got the game in December, and I still don't know a thing about logic systems or even jump drives. In fact I only just learned how to connect an Overdrive Effect to a weapon's system...

I didn't know that, no. Thanks! Here's two pics of it eating a dead pirate station, taken roughly 4 minutes apart. More or less same angle, same range, just... melted. Seems to take in about 10,000 scrap units per minute (167 blocks per second) best I can calculate without measuring it...

Thanks Mokunen... now that you mention it, it does have a bit of a Homeworld feel to it, although I haven't played it or seen any artwork for it in a few years now. My upcoming frigate even more so. The salvage vessel is divided into two major operational halves as you can see, each half has...

Replacing my first salvager, is my upgraded salvager, SVG Excavator. I've built a couple of ships now, but this is the first medium-scale mining vessel so that I can start really mining asteroids and derelicts at a rate that allows me to do some much nicer, larger builds. Stats: Mass: 820.3...

Thanks Crimson-Artist... yes it's a great game for getting into a zone. I've released a new entry where I detail the first small factory set up I've made... in it I can plop any inventory items I pick up into one location and the factory will sort it into appropriate Storage Banks, and even the...

Very inspirational, nice! Starmade vegas!

In the latest entry The Battle of Gundabadt Station I finally finish my first turreted corvette design, the Alannis, and take her out to battle my first pirate station!

Thanks Drakkart! The shipyard is done (except for embellishments I'll add as time goes on). Now I'm halfway through building my first corvette, which will teach me a lot about the building process. I'm thinking I'm going to have to invest in some serious factory upgrades though... block...

I am writing a blog-story about my first ventures in the Starmade multiverse here. It will detail (in a fictional story-based way, speckled with tips and tricks and tutorials as I discover them, for new players) my time playing this awesome game. I have come from the minecraft community, where...

Thanks ppl that's very helpful! Andir, thanks for making a utility, that's great!

I'm trying to find out what factory blocks build what items and it's a lot more difficult than it should be. For example, to make a what light block I need to make a white light rod, but I can't locate where/how to build one and I'd like to not have to buy if I can avoid it... The wiki's don't...
