      TheatsCo- the Clueless Collective

      Its very much a work in progress, but this will give you a general idea of whats going on. The hazard tubes have power reactors, capacitors, and shield rechargers. I'm not sure what to call these. I'll call them power Pylons. They contain much of the systems. From what people have told me...

      TheatsCo- the Clueless Collective

      Greetings! This is Theats, your resident noob who struggles with learning curves. I've begun some projects on a private server, which I hope to save as blue prints and bring over into multiplayer. Full disclosure- I am 95% clueless on weapons systems, 100% clueless on AI, 100% clueless on...

      Holographic Display

      I think even a small dotted version would be epic for a command room. Perhaps a block that would represent a single sector. The most excuisite version has been talked about before and shot down, having scaled down blocks. I do, instead, like the version of showing the ship itself with system...

      Advanced Build Question

      Is the feature called 'templates'? How do I use them? And how is this different than blue prints? I don't even know how to use those, really.

      Ship and Station Best Practices

      Thank you for the pointers! I think my station is roughly 100 or so blocks wide, and may be about 60 blocks tall. I don't have an HQ yet, and am trying this out. The design is basically a globe, sliced off from the middle third, with a smaller dome on the top, and I'm not sure what else on the...

      Ship and Station Best Practices

      If there a source to find best practices for uniform ship construction and station construction? Obviously some artistic choices will vary, but I mean things like standard ranges of length, width, height, weight of hull, of hallways, of rooms, etc. I don't even know what systems should go on a...

      Advanced Build Question

      I am trying to figure out how to use the copy and paste functions better, and have figured out that you have to have something to paste against, and that it typically wants to paste from bottom to top, or from back to front of the ship. While trying to copy and paste, I was wondering if there...

      Stuck at 'Connecting to Universe' on local play

      I too have this problem! I can play just fine on someone else's server, but not locally. I used to be able to play locally, months ago.

      StarMade Active Development Timeline

      I appreciate the responsiveness of your team, as well as the accessibility that you are looking to help with. Here is what I would envision: Spawn in in a bustling spaceport/station/planetary base. You sign up to earn some credits from the Training Guild. You complete several missions to learn...

      Criss' Thread

      Awesome! The addition of factions, even in a basic NPC form will greatly add to the single player experience, or even PvE of sorts on servers.

      StarMade Active Development Timeline

      Holy Cow! Part of me is wondering if I should take a break from the game and come back in the Winter with my beefy Pascal equiped new PC and see what the game has become. As you guys know, I've been following this game since 2014, though my gameplay has been sparse. (I still have yet to make a...

      Can we expect to see these NPC factions in game by years end?

      Allocating More Memory in Startup Menu

      I've located the settings in the old launcher. What would ideal settings be for Maximal, initial, and Early Generation? I've got a 2010 laptop with a few gigs of ram (I think). 4 Gigs of Ram. i7 q740 1.73 GHz Quad Core. Nvidia 320M I'll have a desktop with a beefy 6th gen i7 come Christmas...

      Allocating More Memory in Startup Menu

      I am struggling to find the option to allocate more memory when I am prompted to do so. I was told this was located on the startup menu, but I can't seem to find it :( Can someone please give me very specific directions on how to do that? Thanks! -Theats, The Eager Noob.

      Confession of a Lurker

      UPDATE: Last night I updated Starmade. The new Menu looks awesome. What is even more awesome is that somewhere along the way, things got optimized, because not only could I play on my server, but I was able to easily find an online server to hop in. While I'm essentially a baby when it comes to...
