We've extended sectors to 5k and the speed limit is now up to 150. We've been slowly moving away from the vanilla config bit by bit. Perhaps too slow for some. But I think prudence is the best attribute of valor. Be bold but avoid being foolhardy. That said; Have a video: We're still...

then you need to join the pirate trade network! <ignore, just had a dumb idea>

Who is trading? I wouldn't mind seeing who is moving things around at whatever rate. I don't care what it is just the fact trade is happening is a bit exciting. Sadly the logs show nothing of the sort.

if all members leave the faction disappears if the leader leaves the next person in line gets leader status if a leader is gone for more than 30 days another founder rank user can kick them and take founder leadership

i'd avoid messing with factions as a faction with zero members goes POOF and too many single user factions exist to ignore that. tho an inter-faction squad mode would be interesting. form a squad, assign players, assign assets from any of their factions and everyone gets a privilege set...

I want to lend people ships they can't edit. Keep the build mode camera. BUT no disabling turrets or changing thruster profiles or selecting weapons modules/messing with logic. None of that. Just let them fly it, fire the weapons and use the build mode as an easy freelook camera. My idea was to...

Jump drives only get you sector to sector. Within the sector you're at the merci of your engines. Badly written java, I agree. However, SM has proven it can remain stable for a very long time without the need for scripted restarts. That said; Once Shadow Script gets an instability/lag routine...

Through my own testing I can easily say this: We need a sector size increase. How big exactly? I'm still not sure. I'm seeing what happens between the 4 and 8 km sectors. The sweet spot might be somewhere in the 5 or 6 km range. This will require a corresponding increase in speed cap as well...

I'm trying to avoid goofy dock stuff. There's already 12 turret docks, 3 lift rails, 1 port side docker, 1 starboard side rail dock plus 10 more rail docks for all the ships and 2 more rail docks for 2 internal generators. Any more docks and I'll need a Doc with a degree in head shrinking and...

Hit a slight snag when it came time to test how well a player could use the ship facilities. It feels like an ALL-OR-NOTHING situation where I can't secure parts of the ship without building walls everywhere or staying in the shipcore the entire time which is BORING. The fighters all still need...

A free host seems unlikely. Your best bet is to use an existing server. As far as I know; Not a single server charges players. A few spam you for upvotes on a server listing that no one uses anymore. Some bribe you with perks for donations. But none require that you to pay to play. Server hosts...

She's docked at Spawn for anyone wanting a build mode peek.

Between NASS and work I'm pretty busy so if you message me just be patient. I might be sleeping off my most recent power trip.

For those still watching I have a small tidbit. Still no date but I am building the frigate-ish sized carrier that will serve as the raid suppression flagship. Depending on how many users show up I may spawn more form a fleet and move them into position hoping the AI doesn't go Coo-coo for fruit...

The app is already showing a lot of promise. Keep at it. I'm already trying to clean out old apps on my tablet for whenever you have something testing ready.

i like the idea. you'd need to tug on the ear of someone who's got their fingers in the citizen registry pot. tho you might be able to get around some of that using NASS' shadow script. if the BP is set to public it could be copied by shadow to an FTP directory where anyone can browse it. if...

yes. the capship we'll be using will have fighters onboard they can use but not keep.

all the loot you find

Very thanks. That is very useful and constructive. Also I get to slap a new by-law on the Builder's guild. 'Fun' but necessary.

We're already trying a trial version of a Hybrid PvE/PvP + Build server. Recipe for disaster? I sure hope so! Wanna watch Rome burn as I play the fiddle? Try here! Apply for CM mode by PMing me. :3
