as far as I can tell, atmospheres are still there. They might have gotten turned off by default in advanced settings?

and I failed to heed my own advice and tried to fly through a blue star :P

didn't there used to be a sphax-inspired pack?

I had sort of GOOD luck on a server. Just started it today. spawned in for the first time, found like a dozen newbie junkers just floating around in sector 2 which I disassembled and used to make myself a very nice little miner, with jumpdrives, full miner/cannon linkage, 100/60 shields, decent...

I am thinking scifi fiction, not scifi games. self-repairing ships are common in fiction, anime, tv shows etc... the mechanic is considerably more difficult in games though, which may be why it's more rare.

I like the idea of 'regenerative' systems that repair mid-battle, as an alternative to shields. "Organic" style ships might be unrealistic, but they are certainly prevalent in sci fi... Although it might be more appropos as 'self repairing blocks' rather than just allowing repair beams to be used.

Is it fixed in dev fork?

everybody likes bacon except vegans... and vegans eat greens, just like every other prey species. I say we have bacon made out of vegans!

I didn't compare it to tekkit. I said "If you enjoy Tekkit, Starmade is worth it." It is an entirely different experience, but it's like saying "If you enjoy baseball, you will probably like playing catch" Although, industrially, I would certainly compare it to SOME of the modded packs, such as...

well, remember veritechs are often upwards of 60 feet tall (20 blocks) That should be plenty of room to create a more 'complete' transforming robot. Maybe I should make one... can you link to a camera in a subassembly?

I second the motion! Let's take it to the council.

If you liked playing modded minecraft packs with stuff like IC2, Buildcraft, and other automation/industrial mods, if you enjoyed building bases and traps, and if creating complicated stuff in survival was your favorite pastime, then Starmade is absolutely worth it. If you don't, go play a 4x...

well, I had 50 bucks on my card, inputted everything correctly, and it said 'card declined'... I bought pizza with the same card two hours later so I know it wasn't a card problem, and steam has accepted purchases on the same card before. What else could it be? ah well, I will just use the...

I was just trying to think of a way to limit 'big guns'. Then again, maybe HP will help. And it sounded better than "I wish armor didn't suck". Fine, different wish then. I wish derelict stations looked more 'derelict', rather than 'Newly minted Titanish' Don't get me wrong, they are gorgeous...

I was just being facetious. Case choice is very very personal.

Can I suggest 1 change? Go with this case instead: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133192 If you are gonna play starmade, you should LOOK like you're playing starmade :) (I really wanted that case but the wife vetoed it on account of it being too ugly for the...

heh, custom-building your system doesn't seem much of a moneysaver anymore, unless you are building a pretty low-end system, and then you are still usually better just buying something off the shelf and adding a decent video card.

Dude. Women are like Buses. Well, American women anyway. I wish power systems did not use 'cube size'. Just linear scaling. That would take care of a LOT of the 'small vs large' ship problems. As well as removing a massive confusion point for new players.

heh, it's amazing what you stumble upon when you are trying to figure out the 'new' basics :P
