Don't forget silicon.

Good point. If you leave your faction you could have your faction's current map data saved as a personal one, as would be required for people without a faction.

I'd say server side maps saved by faction is the way to go. So all the people in the same faction share their discoveries.

Just think of them as being denser like if they were compressed from a full sized block.

Schinefriends, is there any intention to change the mass/hp/armor of a block that is in slab form (or say, a wedge being different from a full block of the same type)? It'd would be nice to know before we all start building cool stuff with slabs then they change stats suddenly someday.

Make sure you understand how efficient power generation works. Not mass blocks, but long segregated lines. Also, more mass is bad for cloaking. Use low mass blocks to form your hull. Advanced armor is not going to be a good choice. You might be sacrificing aesthetics for a good perma-cloaker.

sekret tech, just know that there's a way to make them not completely crap.

I dunno about 10x more damage, there are currently ways to make them extremely effective with a little engineering. But sure, maybe buff damage 5x and get community input on balance.

It's easy enough to overwhelm mass point defense with tons of decoy missiles. How about we do the things you say but reduce the damage by half?

This has been discussed to death. Why would anyone use anything BUT a lame, no-aim required, auto tracking weapon if it didn't have any drawbacks?

Looks neat. With a ship that size, it seems like you should easily be hitting the 1m e/sec softcap power regen with standard line generators though (not counting your reactors).

Weird, I figured most people would agree armor is pretty decent now with the newish hp system. Sorry don't have anything too constructive to say.

Vanilla config could probably make them 2 times as fast and they would not be approaching being overpowered yet. Also let ai lead better with them.

Would be nice to sink credits into buying competed blueprints from the trading guild. Have a server.cfg variable for the cost multiplier. Default would be around 3x the cost the blocks would normally be since it would be very fast and convinent, but still has factories as being far more...

Swarmers are already a super lame no skill weapon type used by lame players (mostly on big doomcubes). Making them work better would make them even lamer.

This type of suggestion comes every so often and it's fairly universally disliked. I personally don't want tiers for blocks in a sandbox game. Nor the old timers on a new server I joined having access to better types of blocks when they are already set up with larger miners, factories, and...

Will cargo holds function across different entities? Say for example, I have a modular cargo bay ship docked to a station, then my factory (modular factory even?) could be linked to draw from the cargo ship.

I think the suggestion is really good if you go up a tier, I assumed this idea is planned: Shipyard linked to factories linked to materials will automatically create the blocks you need to fill a design.

I doubt anyone would be performing anything beyond the most basic of maneuvers with logic thrusters, unless you could assign a key to x logic module as opposed to hotbar only activation.

Yep. Times are mandatory for racing.
