So you like DOOM CUBEs... cuz this is how you get DOOM CUBEs. No more sleek nacelles or bridges on conning towers. No way! Can't design a ship like that, too easy to blow parts of the ship off. Please! No hyper realism in my creative block game. And as a SCRUM master, the functionality you...

This is a very logical suggestion. However logic sometimes gets misplaced in game development ;)

I have a question. Why do players want factories on ships? I find it very easy to gather resources in a ship, then return to my faction space station to store and manufacture. As a hardcore survival server player, between PvP and Pirates there is too great of a risk to loose material. What...

I agree! Until planets are more than a source of server lag they should be treated as rocks. I think it would also be good to config the "Type" of asteroid. This would allow server admins to manage resource distribution.

I read all the above posts… I highly disagree with any feature that makes planet mining more difficult. As of right now the only use I see for planets is strip mining. Physics and gravity processing on server side I believe is the source of “Planet Interaction” lag. Mining a planet from orbit...

There are known issues with Shops. http://bugs.star-made.org/issues/1848 I as well hope they get love.

Sandbox... I really think that covers it.

I am just going to address “Acquiring Ship building Materials.” Pirate station siege is another topic all together. There are generally four ways to acquire materials to build ships. 1. Manufacturing with mined resources 2. Player driven economy (cheep thrusters for sale!) 3. Pirate loot...

I agree with Panpiper and jorgekorke Find or make server that is not vote driven. They exist and people play on them. The server I play on is PvP with custom pirates. You have to mine to gather the resources necessary to PvP or PvE. Because of this I have seen real player economy.

I agree it is awkward, but it is very rewarding when done. Here is the Sort-O-Matic I built. http://starmadedock.net/content/sort-o-matic.2218/ It is a sorting array that covers about 90% of blocks. I use it as the start point for my ship build projects to assist with inventory management.

Initial I was asking about NPCs and Players but got the drift that NPCs were not part of the above functionality. Still, knowing that faction members can group build and fly a ship for BS/RP reasons is neat. -Runeseer

Can't you put a weapon computer on the bridge and use that to make your way to the core? -Runeseer

Awesome ship! With the above information, I have a firm understanding of expected functionality. And yes I can now build with that in mind. I was just missing how the crew was aligned to the ship. Thanks all! -Runeseer

Simple question I think… How should multiple players on a single ship work? I would assume that players or crew may board a ship, the “captain” would enter the core and pilot the ship to a destination. The players or crew can walk around the interior (and exterior?) as the ship is flying. The...

EDIT 2/18 - I have heard that this array needs to be reconnected once the blueprint is spawned. Press "C" on the wall storage boxes and "V" on the center floor storage box. This allows the destination storage boxes to correctly pull blocks from the center input storage box. For your...

Cookies as promised!! (please note: the term cookies is used to represent some form of original content and not actual food stuff) http://starmadedock.net/content/sort-o-matic.2218/ In the above link you will find the "Inventory Sorting Array" that makes inventory management a breeze. This...

Yes it is possible for pirates to attack a base when the players are not on line. However I would tend to agree wit SmilingDemon , sounds like a load error. Have you logged out and back in? As an example. I returned to my home base and was hit by high ping as the sector loaded. I then noticed...

I only ask because I have had issue with a server recognizing station location for a warp gate destination due to a station crossing a sector line. I assume if a server has issue with that, it may have an issue maintaining faction ownership. Make another space station in a different (non...

Is your home base in an orbital sector or does it cross sector boundaries? -Runeseer
