      Noob Admin needs help

      For the blueprint issue. find the file called server.cfg in your starmade directory and look for the entry: CATALOG_SLOTS_PER_PLAYER Change the number to whatever amount you want (-1 for unlimited slots). Also, if you\'re only encountering that one shop at spawn, look for the following in the...

      Swarm Drones.

      But here\'s a quick snapshot of a swarm of the new light drones, http://i.imgur.com/UH5myGV.png

      Offline Ship Editor

      I found that it could load ships with weapons saved on BPs from previous builds. It seems something in the last few updates broke full compatibility with SMedit.

      Swarm Drones.

      Also made a smaller drone than others, you get thirteen of these per blueprint. http://www.mediafire.com/download/iqakum98bdmamu1/Pirate_Light_Swarm_Drone.zip Also working on a big drone for use against capital ships. Still have to put a lot of finishing touches. It\'s rather blocky, but...

      thrusters like power?

      It\'s true that thrusters gain a bonus for their axis, they also gain a connection bonus which is significantly higher than the axis bonus. Make two big flat squares of thrusters and connect them and see the massive difference. Thus, the axis bonus is not too important unless you\'re making a...

      Idiotic updates, and logical fixes to common problems

      Wouldn\'t it be a rather simple matter to have some big AMCs to shred shields and have a separate AMC array made of small shotguns to shred enemy blocks during the 10 second recharge delay?

      Swarm Drones.

      So I experimented a bit with the new docking system and with the new AI change; found a fun way to make pirates a bit tougher. But first: Two simple ships: http://i.imgur.com/gRSNMvF.png Completely unassuming ships that are fairly weak. Now, in these two sments I made it so every time they...

      Spawned a WIP ship, suddenly vanishes, Blueprints no longer in catalog, or in blueprint folder.

      Note that it doesn\'t work without the blueprint. And no, if it\'s deleted there\'s no way I know of to get it back unless you made an external backup.

      Spawned a WIP ship, suddenly vanishes, Blueprints no longer in catalog, or in blueprint folder.

      That\'s a feature and a bug, a bugged feature if you will. When Starmade detects a modified blueprint, it will delete the ship, the blueprint, and kick the player who spawned it as a default. It\'s pretty much unnecessary now, since starmade recalculates the cost of the blueprint whenever it\'s...

      Does anyone know a useful station?

      http://starmadeblueprints.com/index.php?topic=53.0 The turrets and shields are pretty lacking, but with 11mil power generation that can easily be remedied. Of course, it\'s not a true station since stations can\'t be bought.

      Getting higher tier pirates to spawn

      Going to the Catalogue\'s admin section and remove the \"Usable by NPCs\" tag on weaker ships.

      INFINITE HAVOC | 50K Creds | 40 Slots| 200 Speed | Custom blocks | UK

      First thing that happens when I login? Make a ship with a core and engine. About 20 seconds later I notice a player following me. I\'m not going to fight in a ship with no weapons. After a minute of zooming around in circles, I saw a message therimmer96: \"tp to War_Dog\" obviously some one...

      New Shield System!

      You just add shield blocks to your turrets?

      Large stealth ship

      I\'ve noticed my previous perma-stealth ships can no longer cloak either. I think some background changes to the game\'s code causes the ship\'s energy recharge to update oh-so-slightly slower; and that tiny delay causes you to decloak due to not having enough power to maintain it. I\'m afraid...

      Home-Sector - Speed 199 - No Whitelist - Blueprints 10 slot - 1million credit start - 200 slot - Sem

      Looks like the latest hotfix screws up the HP settings for hardened hull; trying to place one results in a client crash. We\'ll have to change the HP for hardened hull back to 200; although, we can always raise the armor to 75% (So you need an 800 damage AMC to one-shot a block.)

      Ramming option for bobby ai

      I\'ve suggested this also. Disintegrators also need a massive boost; there\'s a cap on how many detonate at once, the damage is abysmal, and they don\'t do ANY damage if they don\'t overcome the shields in one shot.

      Most ships with any effective pattern of guns are now ruined

      The AMC nerf was a step in the right direction really. As a player who uses the large shotgun arrays (One ship has 184 800-damage AMCs) I know all to well how OP they were. As a reference, that ship now uses around 10,000,000 power per volley. I DO think the update; like the shield nerf, went a...

      Not sure if this is overkill or not enough....

      If you\'re building a dedicated mining platform, I\'d suggest doing away with main guns entirely and switching to using turrets. That frees up space that would be used for energy/weapons. Salvage cannon\'s don\'t use that much power to begin with, so the primary usage will be thrust and turrets...

      Blueprints = Intellectual Property?

      I stated before that I could care less about claiming credit for the design; just at what point will I be able to freely give blueprints to those who ask. Or do the two go hand in hand?

      Not sure if this is overkill or not enough....

      NEVER ENOUGH. Truth: How many guns you need to have enough is more than you have and less than too much
