Not sure about the rest but I believe the separator and particle press are leftover from the original factory system. I'm not very familiar with the first system. I came in after it was changed to the one we have now.

I don't know if it's going to stay that way but the current L1 and L2 minerals have already changed into the new ores and capsules respectively. I have no idea what will happen to the L3-5 they may simply be removed to make room for more block ID's.

I explicitly mentioned symmetry in the second paragraph. It could be taken into account directly I suppose, but it would complicate the simplicity of the equation. I believe (X*Y *Z*2^(S+1) )/2 would work with out needing to use a different equation for symmetry enabled or not. I'm not sure...

I suggest adding an option in the server.cfg to limit the maximum number of blocks placeable at once. This would allow higher dimension limits without lagging the server with excessive placement. It would also help to prevent spamming or griefing via mass block placement. For example, say...

I've had it happen on server before but it was quite a while ago.

You have to go to their manual download page. Threes no direct link on the main page you have to search around a bit to find it. But to save you the time go here. http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp keep in mind this only works if your using a 64-bit OS. I'm on windows 7, other operating...

Installed 64-bit version of java and the game now launches. Probably a compatibility issue with the 32-bit version.

Also experiencing this issue. I have another installation that still runs .157 it starts fine. I did notice that the build mode dimension option didn't show up in the config file after updating. Could be a config file issue?

Faction blocks have a very high armor rating. Make sure the weapon you're using can do at least 100 damage per hit.

It would also be nice if the docking and turret systems showed the name of the ship docked to them.

It occurs to me that you could let faction blocks affect the segment rather than the whole planet. In addition to making it more expensive to fully claim a planet, this would allow allied factions to share a world. Or make it posible to fight for control of a planet piece by piece.

I was hoping the new feature you were hinting a while ago would be shipyards. But this is just as awesome. and compliments to Keaton that looks pretty good.

Turrets on a docked ship seem to take their orientation from the station/carrier rather than their own ship. If you docked say on the front (+z) side of a station the ventral turrets on that ship would be facing -z instead of -y as they would if the ship were not docked. Additionally ships...

Weapon and salvage computers,(and probably the rest) are not recognizing as installed. error occurs with both preexisting and newly built ships.

No roll is the correct term. There are three bacic movements in three dimensional maneuvering. Pitch is tilting the nose up or down. Yaw is turning the nose left or right. and roll is spinning allong the z axis. The term rotation could mean any of these.

The games current auto orientation button is very useful. It is invaluable for reaffirming your relative location, for navigating based on the sector grid numbers, or just lining your ships up beside each other. It can be a bit of a nuisance if triggered accidentally, especially for large...

Something else I just discovered. Seems that if you undock without having left the ship it will snap to whatever dirrection it was facing when you first docked. Likely this will cause collisions in tight spaces. I\'d advise while testing your dock to leave the ship and reenter.

You could try holding shift, or whatever your full stop button is, as you undock. That should negate the undocking inertia reather quickly.
