Hi there. I am trying to make a ship to shoot pirate stations. I made a missle weapon and put beam on it then ion on it. its like 30 of each. but my ship never has enough power. so I went to the starpedia and looked up the effects, but it doesnt say how much power they need, just what they...

so how do you figure out why a cloak isn't working? like my ship. 272 mass cloak wants 1450 power per block per second so my ship needs to make 394400 energy per second, min yet my ship can make 1 mill. its 1294096/1294096 yet my power per SECOND is only 150,710! thats like a third of what i...

so I have an odd little idea I am trying to get to work, but could only get about half way. I have 2 'fins' docked to my ship. I hit an activator switch hooked up to logic. this makes the fins move to their expanded position. one fine hits a rail activation system. this turns on a force field...

I'd love to see a vacuum system and needing a special block to make interiors livable. why have a helmet otherwise? space itself isn't scary at this point also just wanted to say thank you for slabs

I usually do everything in 5x5x5, be it cargo, shields or factory enhancers

I think I'll try both, on two different stations. I get around the internet a lot so it wouldn't surprise me if you'd seen my name before. I'm on Deviantart, Flight Rising and all sorts off stuff. I'm going to see if I can put transporters on an asteroid. I wish the shops had a dock

I built my space station in a great spot. There's like 5 shops and 20 blue asteroids. But everything is in opposite directions. I am trying to find out the best ways to travel. I thought first I could but transporters on the shops and get to them that way. but I can't build on a shop. I...

turns out the reason mine didnt work was I was using the mac version of the game. everything works fine with my storage now that I installed on my pc and loaded the same server now I can just drop the storage, make a 5 x 5 x 5 of the cargos and do c on the storage and shift v on the cargos.

don't worry if it doesn't seem to work. mine only half work. all your cargo boxes, the ones you cant open, start off visible when placed. then you link them to the storage, the one you can look into like your inventory. When done right they get purple outlines and turn a bit invisible and see...

I feel like pvp would be better if servers could better control the size of galaxies, how fast/far jumpdrives can go, and how shops restock. like if a galaxy was really small, or easy to get around, and shops had enough material to make your pvp ships (so that the first people on the server...

I'd like a mining tool that I hit to charge up, like I do with the jump drive. only when I hit it it eats up the entire asteroid. and only asteroids. The time it takes to charge the drill might only be a little shorter than using salvage beams. yet I find most of my salvage time is spent trying...

Hi, I have some assorted questions that I am having trouble with finding good answers to. 1. the new storage system. I can attach the cargo and storage and even factories without any issue. Everything that is supposed to be purple is purple, and see thru. The cargo boxes even do the cool thing...

I love the new docking. My only issue is the cargo. I've gotten it all set up, but the storage and factories don't notice. the blocks turn purple, and see thru, like they are supposed to. Weirder still, when someone ELSE looks into the storage/factory they see the proper numbers. but if I use...

So before posting I googled "why do starmade glass blocks have shadows" and didn't get any matches so i am going to assume no one has pointed it out. I get some really harsh shadows going across my build. They are cast by glass. I get that it is probably easier to have every block cast the same...

getting blown up by the trade guild is always a bit annoying xD that logic array sounds amazing, and its a shame it didn't work. My latest Idea is to just make a bigger ship. like a giant scoop or more accurately a snowplow xD and with the way thrust works I could have the snow plow on the...

for some reason I'm picturing swoop racing instead of ship racing. I think it would be really cool to have ship races, and it would be easiest with a track, perhaps as a space station.

deep core miner sounds really, really cool. harvesting a planet with a ship is just silly, just that I can get close enough to a planet with my giant clunky ship is silly. also i saw someone mention asteroid respawns. I like to think that the asteroids we see are just samples of the much larger...

found a strange bug today. I was hitting undo, all the way to the end of the saved history. The ship exploded, no visible damage but it spawned a huge amount blown bits of hull. then the game crashed. when I came on a bunch of the ship was unbuilt, but the explosions debris was gone. it was...

Iloveyouforever *scurries off to turn her game back on*

I saw an amaazzinngg ship on my server that used logic and plex doors to have a sliding door over his guns. it would slowly draw back into the ship and show the gun, and then cover it again it was so cool. not sure if guns work if they are covered though so it might be annoying to always have to...
