      SMEdit for building?

      I'm planning to make a new ship in the future and I was wondering if SMEdit would be more effective for making it than in game. Would you recommend it?

      Has anyone seen GaeasSon?

      It's been a long time since I've seen anything from him. Is he still around?

      Resource file too big for server

      I can't seem to update a ship that I'm trying to post in the community content. I just get: I got this error from a compressed version of the file. :mad:

      Questions about using templates

      I'm running an experiment to move the the core of http://starmadedock.net/content/unsc-halcyon-class-cruiser-c709-pillar-of-autumn.419/ The idea is to copy and save the ship into slivers to be pasted onto a slightly modified frame. It shows promise, but I've run into some major hurtles. So...

      How can I effectively add to game memory?

      My game crashed from lack of memory when I tried loading a large ship, so I attempted to increase game memory (from the launcher). However, when I change any of the numbers the game won't start when I click ok, it just shuts down. How can I get this thing to work?

      Question about attack drones

      I have heard about the concept of miniature spaceships that detach from the main ship to attack enemies. I was wondering, how exactly does that work, and could those drone reattach themselves to the mothership on command?

      Blocks should be rotatable

      I have noticed that you can't rotate a block of dirt, or any blocks with a pattern for that matter. Right now I'm trying to make a ship with a garden, but the surface of the ship is on a right angle. I can't use grass blocks since they can only be placed in the up position, so it won't look right.

      Can the build helper be used for large objects?

      I'm trying to use the build helper to make a large object, but the helper freezes up when calculating the shape. If I intended to make a dome larger than the 256 blocks in diameter, would it be viable with the build helper, or is it simply too weak to handle such a size? If it can be done...

      Travel between galaxies

      I have embarked on a flight to find a neighboring galaxy. However I have come to understand that I may have to traverse over a thousand sectors before I reach the next one. This could take a really long time even using admin warping. Is there an easier way to cross the expanse, is the flight...

      How do I properly tweak memory settings?

      I have been trying to increase my game memory in the launcher options, but I keep running into problems. Right now they are set to: Maximal Memory: 2048 Initial Memory: 1024 Early Generation Memory: 256 When I try to start the game nothing happens. It seems like any modification to the...

      Stuttering Sound Effects

      For a long while now my game has been plagued by a bug that causes the sounds to stutter and repeat themselves for a long while. I have tried repair-downloading the game twice. but the bug won't go away. How can this be fixed?

      Copyingine large objects

      I'm currently building a large ship that requires me to make 8 identical objects that are way larger than 10 x 10 x 10 blocks. I've looked for instructions on copying and pasting large objects but came up with nothing. How would I go about selecting a large structure to be copied and pasted...

      Question about the Build helper

      I have been playing with the build helper to assist me in building spheres. However it only produces an outline that would be tedious to follow for large objects. Is the build helper capable of automatically filling in the outline, so I don't have to spend hours filling in each white frame by...

      This game has become extremely laggy

      I have been trying to play in singleplayer (modified to have greater memory capacity and larger planets) and I have been running into game-breaking lag. Essentially, the server is perpetually under high load even when the only thing in the area is my ship and a space station. Exiting the game...

      How do I use the jumpdrive?

      I just started using a large mothership I downloaded and I wanted to try out the jump drive. The computer for it looks like it's half charged (half-covered in green) and it takes forever for it to change. Also nothing happens when I hold down the left mouse button to charge it. What am I...

      Guided D1000 combo

      I have been playing with missiles and encountered two kinds of missiles that are guided: 1. D1000 with a damage beam slave and a punch-through effect 2. D1000 with a damage pulse slave and a ion effect What makes these guided? I'm hoping to adapt this to other missile batteries.

      Trouble with landing on planets

      I built a rather tall space craft, so I increased the planet sizes in my game so their gravitational fields could envelop it. But weird behavior ensued: I couldn't get the planet's gravity to consistently pull on the ship, sometimes the ship would fall, and sometimes it wouldn't. And when it...

      Is there a setting for the planet size?

      To be blunt, I find the planets ridiculously small. Is there a something I can do to make them generate bigger as well as their gravity envelope?
