      how do you nominate someone for master builder

      Our approach to say the rail and logic badges with the council has been to award them for a particularly recognized creation that the council agrees is deserving of the badge. Usually the council account will then post on the user's profile to congratulate and in that say what it's for. This...

      Dev Blog : July 20th 2015

      Recognized Improve Sector Coordinate display on HUD

      hmm yeah probably needed in some form. We'll most likely look at a lot of hud stuff to do with navigation and see how it can be improved.

      Implemented Adjacnet logic for rail dockers

      You can use both activation modules and buttons next to rail blocks to get logic feedback - when the rail block is empty both will be off - when a docker travels onto the block, or is docked to the block, the button triggers a momentary high then returns to low, the activation module goes high...

      New hp system breaks combat, doesn't "make it better"

      Thanks for suggesting the idea, after discussions with some of the other devs this is where we sit on the topic of adding in additional "computers" for key ship systems. Not that we're necessarily against the idea of adding in a computer that could let you adjust key ship systems, more the...

      Read by Schine Ammunition as an Alternative

      Interesting thoughts on the subject. I can't speak from Schine's perspective at this point but my own opinion says that I'm all for consumables, it helps balance the economy. However my concern about any new system like this would be how difficult we make it for new players starting out with...

      Read by Schine Has anyone mentioned a community app yet?

      The StarMade Dock is mobile-compatible so if accessing the forums on mobile-devices is what you're after then it's achievable at the moment.

      New hp system breaks combat, doesn't "make it better"

      Schine has no plans to implement "computers" that control key ship systems like shield, thrust, or power in a way similar to weapons computers that, if destroyed, would cripple that particular system.

      Implemented Adjacnet logic for rail dockers

      Both of these are implemented as far as I'm aware, can't remember if in the current release or current dev build but it's in there.

      Planned The Great Economy

      Trading between players, factions, and NPC factions is planned and will integrate into a number of planned features quite comfortably. While the economy of the game isn't necessarily geared towards this being implemented right now, as Blaza612 pointed out above, changes to the way storage of...

      If this were added, it'd be an opt-in setup, similar to opt-ing in for https://trello.com/c/GlQUbw6f

      Brainstorm This Astronaut Mode gameplay.

      Astronaut mode is definitely important to the game, I think we all recognize that. And with things like missions etc becoming more of a thing in the future there will be more reason for player interactions. Again with taking the player out of the core and into some form of captain's chair we'll...

      A possible solution for multiple-entities in build mode.

      Recognized Offline/Disable Ships "Running Cold"

      I'm a fan. Like the submarine analogy. Mattering what happens with physics I could imagine a situation where heading through a hostile area you would want to instead run silent and just let your ship continue to drift. In that case I'd say power down shouldn't take as long as powering up, i'd...

      yeah it wasn't going to be the same as the wireless logic; it'll be more contextual.

      Read by Schine How about repairing what is broken in the game first?

      Generally there's performance and balance fixes as part of the cycles after a new release, think what happened after GUI update. However with the team larger than it was during that period, this is kinda happening in the background while new features are still worked on.
