This is the M-205 Vanguard Class Destroyer; A compact, swift and agressive escort ship for the fleet. Overview: When flown solo, it's great for shorter missions, where it's high manouverebility is of more value than the raw power and capacity of a larger vessel. - Not to mention, it's...

WHY CAN'T I GIVE YOU ALL DA RATINGS! Seriously, that's at least a double like, a creative, a funny and an agree all together.

No... By the stars, PLEASE NO! There is no more need for NPCs in this game than the occasional pirate wave. Since the AI factions received their current update, servers usually need to completely block them, lest they overburden the system and break the game. I can get all the complex...

Then you need to get better in planning stuff, for the game's sake. Even if it is obvious, you put it on a list, chalk it up on a blackboard among all the other issues so you don't lose sight of your priorities. Even as we write these words, work is underway on an unnecessary and generally...

Normally I'm quite happy to go on a trollhunt, but this time there's no troll to be found. And don't get me started on that end goal document....... I read it the first time it was uploaded and all I could think of, what an utter waste of everyone's time it was. It's several pages of nothing...

Geez. I appreciate that something was done against line ships, but I hoped they'd REMOVE some of the silly overcomplicated sh!t instead of adding more. Just delete those stabilizers already. Although, to be fair, IF distance and mass allows that whole reactor assembly to be fitted into my...

I have immediately seen the problem upon reading about the update. Actually trying it was but a confirmation of what I already knew. Nth idea for a better power update You, dear OP, and many others were easily able to independently make the same conclusion as well. Yet the guys making /...

- Improved power generation from 800 K/s to 1000 K/s. With this, the reactor is powerful enough to sustain the use of all weapons systems indefinitely, even during powered flight. - Filled up a few empty spaces in the engine pods. -Added a display module with basic system information...

I've been thinking about something like that; The game recognizes block groups now. Let's use them to simulate the ship breaking apart, w/o actually doing anything even remotely as resource hungry! Any group or groups that are not touching the largest group or groups of blocks should start...

WHY is that a problem? Some people play in groups, some play alone, yet all of them need a safe place to keep their ships and loot at. "AKA docking for the night" Taking that away is the same as if WoW left your character in the game world after you log out, letting other players kill it and...

Holy blocks.... If I'd see that in-game, I'd offer my condolences to the pilot for suffering such a horrible chunk-error.

Width: 13 meters Height: 8 meters Length: 25 meters A simple container for extending your ship's cargo capacity or to deliver goods to your trading partners in style. It can hold 100k units. It's shielded, armored, and even has a little thrust to help you nudge it around before you dock...

Wingspan: 55 meters Height: 20 meters Length: 95 meters Mass: 5,430 units Shields: 500k cap w 50k/s regen Thrust ratio: 2.1 Cargo capacity: 20k internal +100k external Additional systems: -Enhanced shields -lvl 2 mining bonus -Scanner with lvl 4 strength, lvl 2 duration...

Thanks for the info Zoolimar. And so my interest is lost. It's what I thought the first time I've read that point in the op post, but then I saw the screenshot with the spheres and started hoping. Serves me right.

Bubble shields do sound fun though. Can a bomber squadron fly through a battleship's bubble and drop it's payload on unshielded hull? I'd love that. Also, if two or more bubbles completely overlap, do you have to pop them layer by layer? Because that's how it works in WH40K and I also love...

That's super neat and fun to use! It is however the exact opposite of what'd be practical: Select-Target auto-aiming weapons on the mothership w/o having to resort to docked entities - Like seen in Star Trek Online. ( Manual aim vs small moving targets, from a moving source = Eternal dance with...

My proposal would set a maximum power (and systems) to mass ratio. Pretty much as your current plan seems to set a maximum power-to-length ratio (even if it's a soft-cap). Except your power needs are not dictated by your dimensions but your block count! That's my idea. And it doesn't even have...

Bubble shields. Bombers just fly through a big ship's shields and drop their payload on un-shielded armor.

Starmade Power System Redesign 01. Foreword: This one's no less wordy than the usual rants that tend to sprout like mushrooms around here, and quite franky, I'm losing my patience for them, same as you do. So I provided some TLDR for the major points in picture format for ease of...

Allright. Let's start with the good parts. There ARE some good things in the new power system video. Namely power priorities, the long overdue fix for weapons consuming power before firing ( I don't know why was this not treated as a bug sooner; ATM if there's not enough power to shoot a...
