      How do I move ship designs between computers?

      If I design a ship on one PC and then install the game on another how do I copy the design into my other PC? Is there a design file that can be copied somewhere?

      How can I get unlimited blocks to build what I want?

      Is there some way I can just get unlimited blocks and not have any pirates in the game so that I can just build whatever I want and perhaps later use the blueprint in another game/world?

      Make ships carry a maintenance cost

      People keep arguing about the role of small Vs big ships and some complain that it's not logical for only big ships to always be best. I believe there is a simple way this could be fixed though: Just make ships carry a maintenance penalty that is paid for by the faction that owns it. This would...

      A rough idea on when we will have shipyards?

      Right now, I don't have the desire to keep playing until we get shipyards or some kind of auto-repair option. Manually repairing my ship is just too much for me. Is there any rough eta on when this will happen? I know it's a confirmed feature but is there any clue about when it will be here? A...

      Why I think quality is better than quantity in terms of design and tactics

      In war, whether it's in real life or in video games, the issue of quality vs quantity is often a concern. Is it better to have fewer but better units or to swarm the enemy with lots of cheaper but worse units? While Starmade currently favors only quality rather than quantity because the player...

      Will it ever be possible to move cores?

      I am sure this has been asked in the past, but at some point in the future will it be possible to move a core to another part of the ship? It's just so extremely annoying having to design your whole ship by starting from the center if you want your core to be there for the sake of protection. It...

      In-game custom sounds for your ship

      One thing I feel the game is currently lacking in the customization department is sounds. Currently every ship sounds the same when moving, shooting etc. I suggest that the player is allowed to customize the sound effects of his ship, since I feel that audio is just as big of a part of a ship...

      A way to travel faster in space without a ship

      Currently when you are floating in space without a ship you move soooooooo slowly it's extremely annoying. I guess it makes sense in a way but I suggest that the player should be able to at least build some kind of item like a jetpack so that he can move faster while floating in space without a...

      What is the ideal shield capacitor/shield recharger ratio?

      At the moment I have had it as a general rule of thumb to have as many shield capacitors and shield rechargers on my shields. I wonder though if this is the smartest thing to do or perhaps there is a more logical ratio? What ratio of SC and SR do you typically use on your designs?

      What do I do with scrap?

      So I found a space station and harvested a portion of it and got scrap. What do I do with this scrap? Can I convert it somehow into something else? I dropped it into my capsule refinery thinking it would produce alloy but it did nothing.

      How do I give pirates new blueprints and other questions...

      So I heard I could give pirates new blueprints to use, even my own ships! That sounds interesting to me since the basic pirate ships don't look very dangerous to me. But I have a few questions. 1. Are the basic fighter ships I have encountered so far the only default ships the pirates have...

      Will the game have AI factions in the future?

      While exploring the universe and fighting AI ships is fun, at the moment the single player experience still isn't that complex. What role with AI factions play in the future? Will there be AI factions that will own or even claim areas like the player can? Or perhaps there will just be static...

      Do ships auto-replace damaged blocks?

      If I have a big ship and have just finished a big fight I assume my ship will be full of holes. Will I have to manually repair every single last damage caused to the ship? Or is there some kind of auto-repair feature?

      blocks losing their connection should cause their destruction

      From what I can tell if a block on your ship loses it's connection to the rest of the ship it just floats in thin air. Besides looking really really stupid it also doesn't make any sense gameplay or balance wise. If I am able to cut somebody's ship into two then this should cripple that ship. It...

      What is the largest know ship ever made?

      According to this page http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Executor-class_Star_Dreadnought the super star destroyer from the Star wars movies was over 19km long!!! I think there are plenty of 1km long ships in starmade already, but has anybody tried to actually create a real super star destroyer? Is...

      Some suggestions to make the game even better!

      Greetings! This is my first post on this forum! Originally, I posted this on the game's steam forum, but decided to join this forum as well since it appears to be the game's main forum. The first is a bunch of suggestions for how the faction system could be improved, and the later is asking for...
