      Should ship images become compulsory?

      If something is voted 1, and there is no picture/stats, I am sure you are intelligent enough to GUESS what the damned problem is. If not, I want you on my server. We could use a new Omega punk.

      Texture Pack,

      Now, if only you didn\'t have to replace the default textures to use the alternate texture pack... I always name the default with a .bak to keep it archived :) If I make a texture pack it\'s DEFINITELY going to have an alternative block config file.

      Big Ships are Terrible now...

      Once modmaking becomes more stable, (if he hasn\'t done it already) that\'s definitely something to add to docks to make them more viable... instead of \'launch\' you could set an empty one up to \'recover\'. of course, everyone will start making cockpits above their landing bays to guide the...

      Big Ships are Terrible now...

      I keep getting the feeling that a lot of the people griping about the buff haven\'t lost a single \'big ship\' yet... They are simply terrified by the IDEA that they cannot simply dump their kilometer-long portable battle platform made of one gun in a sector anymore and ignore it for a week...

      Should ship images become compulsory?

      I just downvote ships that don\'t come with at least 1 image and a set of base statistics.

      Do Pirates Attack At Shops?

      I also found out that if I put some decent turrets in the catalog, and then start the station by building an enormous cross shape, quickly slapping down anti-fighter turrets on the arms, the turrets can often take care of the pirates while I keep building.

      Docking Woes, My Docking Space is Big Enough!

      Turrets do not have to have an \'exposed\' core on the bottom. they have one block of \'leeway\' so that you can place things like armor in a single layer under the core. I tend to use this for diagonal plates to make a sort of \'ball bearing\' for my turret. That way it looks like it is...

      Texture pack help

      so you would, in essence, have to make a \'hull\' a multi-sided texture, and then alter which side is facing outwards to break up the patterns for the six sides? And altering the blockconfig would, I assume, be considered a \'mod\', and thus be used on modded servers.

      Texture Pack,

      How did you alter the texture resolution? all attempts I have made have turned out.... odd.

      Texture pack help

      I am trying to create a more 'worn looking' texture pack. Is there a way of making a block side choose from a number of different textures (multi-tex) to break up wear patterns, scars, surface features, and so forth, so that wear doesn't get replicated across an entire connected surface...

      Texture Pack,

      I am definitely looking forward to seeing this released. I especially like the idea of block reassignments. Once this is released, would you be adverse to mods adding blocks using your established style? ie. others playing with making add-ons to your texture pack?

      Recognizer

      see, I thought I was going to be all original making a recognizer in starmade... I did a google image search to find images of recognizers so I didn\'t get it wrong, and guess what I stumbled across? hehehehe. Well done.

      Why the shield change is good

      I have noticed that Starmade seems to be based around scifi tropes... things like star wars, battlestar galactica, and various science fiction universes. Almost universally within these tropes, one simple rule seems to hold true in universes that contain various sizes/types of craft...

      Challenging creativity!

      I am waiting for someone to build a version of Immibis\' microblocks (minecraft mod) for starmade... the ship design possibilities are staggering.

      New shield mechanics getting you down? Then GOOD NEWS EVERYONE!

      Did you say that turret docks don\'t actually have to be connected to the ship? so I could have \'floating\' turret drones that have a greater field of fire because of their seperation from, say, a space station? do they shoot at the unit that they are \'floating\' attached to? can you attach...

      Some questions (I'm new)

      You can make broadsides guns by pressing ctrl + period key to rotate the block direction. each time you press period it rotates the direction again. I strongly suggest you setup a cockpit in the location (facing the same way as your guns) or else hitting things will be.... problematical.
