      SD KB Missiles

      they still go for my turrets even though I and my turrets have faction blocks. and yes they are active.

      why an ai will not be able to patrol multiple sectors

      when a player gets a certain distance from a sector, that sector is removed from active computer memory to improve performance, similar to minecraft chunk loading. an ai would freeze upon entering any such sector, immobile until a player came close enough. since this applies to pirates as well...

      A simple solution for Hull Mechanics

      but as of now, with the diminishing returns on grouping, 100 individual AMCs do more damage than 100 grouped AMCs. this is true even without your idea the catch is range, an individual AMC doesn\'t shoot very far. while I really like this idea, I fear it will lead to a generation of lag...

      yes this has been suggested many times and is planned

      Big Ship vs Small Ship - PROBLEM SOLVED

      one, a shockwave does need a medium to travel through, however the immense radiation does not. two, while large ships should be slow, I agree with trollerbobman that a capital ship made of thrusters should be just as maneuverable as a fighter

      A simple solution for Hull Mechanics

      if you have it do a fixed amount of damage that is more that one, you need to account for shots that do less than one. what is more, if you have the AMCs seperated, you will do much more damage. this is already true, but this idea would amplify it. that said, I think this is a great idea

      Galactic map (shift P) improvements

      even spell check isn\'t enough here because you are using the wrong words in some cases

      how else would you place them sideways or upside down?

      More Varieties of Weapons (not an I WANT LAZORS thread)

      the game is programmed to use a limited number of actions per second (can\'t remember but it was in the realm of one to twenty). the game smoothens it out but there is a delay in control inputs as a result.

      More Varieties of Weapons (not an I WANT LAZORS thread)

      they travel at the speed of light, being electromagnetic waves. they are, in essence, light at a very high frequency (just as radio is light at a low frequency).

      Repair modules and "Ghost" blocks

      this is a well thought out, gameplay improving idea. I think that this is definitely something to look at. however, as it is a convenience, a luxury, shema would be forgiven for delaying this in favor of other, more pressing matters, such as the discrepancy between AMCs and missiles, and the...

      Bobby ai settings for physical contact of enemy ships

      that is another subject altogether

      Repair drones!

      you can put repair beams on an ai, but they won\'t use them. while it would be nice to just make them register with the ai, it would require a rework of the targeting system as currently they just target the core. as far as the drone hanger block goes, pre-made entities don\'t fit the...

      Corners fit all positions. [locked]

      which is why I posted about it in the features area before I thought to come here (yes I am new to the forums)

      Hulls for better or worse?

      the simple solution is to increase the armor rating of hardened hulls (to say 90%) and have missiles ignore armor. although large enough AMCs will still be able to tear through hull so mayby this dosnt work so well

      Bomb/Mine bay

      this happens when you don\'t use a faction module. have not tested using the faction permission block yet.

      Bomb/Mine bay

      what we really need is for these mines to retain their momentum when they are undocked. that way we can have dive bombers and not have to worry about AIs at all.

      Turning thrusters/thruster overhaul

      Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. even if your exhaust doesn\'t end up going backwards, you still end up going faster. if what you say was true, aircraft could only move one direction (depending on where they are and what time it is) simply because the earth is orbiting at almost...

      I am seeing this on the 24th at 10pm. the time stamp says this was posted on the 25th. edit: I am so smart. this was three months ago :)
