I was attempting to "report" the "EVEN MORE LITTERALY BEST SHIP..." for being absurd and for possibly confusing new players with an empty zip file. However, when I attempt to submit my "Report", I am met with a "The following error occured" pop-up warning that tells me "A server error occured...

Based on the ideas of "ejecting" power cores and destroyed ships "breaking apart" to create debris fields, I think Starmade would benefit from a new game mechanic where parts of the ship are cut from the ship and pasted into an "asteroid"-style entity that can be thrown from the ship or drift...

My google-fu has failed me and I cannot find an appropriate logic thread for my problem. I want to create a logic-clock-controller that creates a rapid pulse for a lighting system in my 0.199.217 single-player creative sandbox. I am thinking along the lines of on for 0.1 second, then off for...

Based on the idea presented below, who would be interested in building templates of "building parts" that could be donated to the game to dynamically build cities, to fulfill such needs as AI faction bases, improved abandoned cities, city biomes for planets, and generally helping players build...

For missile ammo, the texture of the missile module itself gives me an idea: The side of each missile module shows stored missile ammo. This tells me that the number of missile modules should define the storage capacity of the missile system, not the power of each missile. Linked secondary...

As I mentioned in this thread, it would be good if, when an astronaut aligns with a rail, that they move along the rail, just as if they were a docked entity, complete with logic interaction. The feet/mag boots would be the docker. Result: Instantly available automatic horizontal walkways and...

I would like to see system blocks like reactors, shields, capacitors, other blocks with the same texture on all six sides modified so that four of the sides are textured with a simple flat plate. That way, we can select whether the system block will be decorative with the animated texture, or...

After a brief discussion in this thread, I wanted to suggest something that would simulate an animated door without requiring a rail-docked entity. It would be part of the host ship and still look like it was moving. I came to the realization that slabs, when sequentially increased and decreased...

I was inspired recently by a picture of multiple identical in-game probes in a row. Custom Bullets. How it would work: You would create a ship and dock it and link the dock to the weapon. If the docked ship fell within certain limits (e.g. less than 50 percent of each dimension of the docking...

I had an idea to make a demolition block into a kind of storage block. No cycles, no linking to cargo blocks, no auto-pull. However, you could insert meta items to change the explosion level of these blocks when they are "activated"/detonated. So it would create a variable-power demolition...

I have finally rendered my idea for a different planet style. What are those at the poles? Why, yes, they are polar ice caps, thanks for asking. My idea for a planet is an expansion of the 3-D planet idea. It consists of 14 parts: north and south poles. 8 square "continents", an atmosphere...

Similar to "Suicide", this button should completely reset a player, complete with starting credits and starting blocks. De-factions the player and destroys all their owned structures, including structures factioned to that player's faction if there are no other faction members. (Could be...

New idea for decoration: Ships could use steam and water vapor and anything that looks like that. Imagine some of the movies and TV shows you've seen, where some sort of vapor trail or steam leak is appearing on a spaceship (or in a space station, on a planet, in a boiler room, etc.) Setting...

I'd like the ability to link a specific camera to a specific weapon computer. Purpose: temporary change of view for vanity and entertainment What could happen: When the weapon fires, the viewpoint instantly changes to the linked camera for about half-a-second, after which, the player's view...

In build mode, the "server not responding" red window pops up directly over where I am trying to re-orient shaped blocks on the right side of the screen. It also happens to cover the Y and Z size sliders. Is there a way to move that "server not responding" window over to the left side of the...

Ship Interiors Replicas for ship internal spaces from Science Fiction Hello. So I was reading through another thread that discussed how shipwrights in another game can build detailed ship interiors, which we cannot do. I believe this is because that other game has more blocks (on the order of...

I have been watching a play-through of Half Life 2 and got inspired by some of the visuals. We need a way to decorate our ships with translucent particle streams. The particles would each be a simple 2D billboard displayed in 3D space, moving away from the emitter block. 9 new blocks in two...

There are frequently times when I want to build something where two different block types alternate. I would like to recommend a change to build mode where Alt-<number> puts a secondary selection on a block in the hotbar. Then, when the middle-mouse-button is clicked, this alternate block is...

Originally from the General Discussion Thread "What blocks can interact with logic?" http://starmadedock.net/threads/what-blocks-can-interact-with-logic.5601/ These blocks were found to have no logic output: Light Gravity Door Computers I found this limiting, and ltmauve suggested this idea...

I think it would be neat if cooperating server admins could easily set up some kind of "singularity" in their respective universes to allow a player from one server to enter a singularity in-game and be transferred to the other server, dependent on a partnership and agreement between the server...
