      Read by Schine The Nomadic Revolution [Motherships/Capital Ships as Homes]

      You can build small gates that astronauts fly/walk through. In the next release it should be fixed so that as an astronaut you appear right in front of the gate you arrive through rather than somewhere near by.

      You could if you wanted, attack people who are racing. You could if you wanted have your race ships with player-controlled turrets on top for example to add to the difficulty. Don't worry, behind the scenes our focus is on actual 'space sim' gameplay. We have incredibly extensive plans to...

      Dev Blog : October 20th 2015

      We're trying it out for now, it probably won't remain like that in the future but we have to start somewhere. Also if you're transporting from one transporter in your ship to another then your shields shouldn't drop as you aren't going outside of the ship. Transporters are between other...

      You're thinking of things like Destiny as well, one lone ship out there travelling that you jump back and forward to. The problem is that the warp gates aren't designed for ship use. Their destinations, coordinates etc are all calculated on connection rather than constantly, meaning they can't...

      We're not currently planning on including "motherships". In the past we have expressed the intent to add in Capital Ships that include features like FTL etc. If station components were to be made available to something that can fly then it would be on Capital ships with a significant power cost...

      Well overdue for another Dev Blog, here we are. After TwitchCon it sort of felt like the quiet before the storm for some of us, as we prepared to go into this crazy season of new directions for the game. Thanks to everyone who attended, and if you did in fact attend and took a photo at our booth...

      Recognized Exploration/System Bonuses and Actual Empire Building

      As in we have a solution for handling the server load more NPCs might introduce. If you watched the Twitch stream from TwitchCon you would have seen the spawn station. That thing will obviously have a fair few NPCs on it as the game grows. So not confirming anything except that we have a...

      In Developement Cockpits: Simple solution (remote core access)

      There's progress on it so it's gone from just an idea to starting to have some work on it so i guess in dev.

      In Developement Cockpits: Simple solution (remote core access)

      Planned Stack Limits

      Our plan is pretty simple for cargo, don't see the point of over-complicating things.

      Lol summoning ritual. Some great ideas in here, cool to see what we have planned is similar to what the community thinks would be cool, so that's a good sign. I know we haven't really communicated much about the direction of the game recently, especially with us moving into new things beyond...

      Development roadmap?

      We'll be updating the public Trello roadmap next week and will be sharing a lot more on the direction of the game in the coming weeks as well. We don't use Trello for our project management software, it was just a handy way to easily represent ideas that's view-able publicly that the community...
