      SocketException: Permission denied: connect

      Likely your firewall blocking it. There used to be a bug in the Windows Firewall exposed by Java 7 / 1.7 if it used IPv6, but Microsoft fixed that last year, apparently. Of course, perhaps some other companies\' firewall products have the same flaw, but have not been fixed... (My source for...

      Docking

      This is not how docking modules work, unfortunately. There is a certain # of blocks from the ship\'s core in every direction which is permitted. With no extenders, it is 5. So you could have an 11x11x11 ship fit in a standard docking module with no extenders, but only if the core was dead...

      Newest Update and Docking doesn't work any more.

      \"Then it\'s a simple matter of just removeing and rebuilding the ship. Besides, shuttles are meant to be easy to build and cheap to replace. So if you can\'t dock it f**k it and rebuild it.\" ... or, you know, you could undock and then restart your client, without having to destroy or...

      Add a line break or a list here!

      I agree. However, try the /list_ships command in the meantime. (I have no idea if it requires admin access or not. I would hope not.)

      Docking

      Is that the docking module in the middle of all three? That doesn\'t seem to work. By the way, the green box is not always accurate.

      Docking

      Could you take another screenshot which has a clear view of the enhancers and how they are connected to each other, and has the docking module selected so that the enhancers connected to it are highlighted with the purple outline? (If you have lines of enhancers running in different directions...

      Pasting text into blueprint description box allows you to exceed line limit, but not character limit

      Made one 140 lines long. It doesn\'t all fit inside the blueprint scrollbox, some just gets cut off. Heh.

      Pasting text into blueprint description box allows you to exceed line limit, but not character limit

      As per topic, text pasted info the blueprint description textentry box.is not checked for its number of lines, nor is the number of lines checked when you hit OK. I did verify that the character amount limit works properly even when pasting text in. This means you can do things like this:

      Shields seem to make no sense

      The problem is that if you press r on a shield disperser it gives you some figures which have no relation to reality, and this is confusing people.
    10. Trafalgar

      Damage delt by NPC goes through shields.

      But is it really a glitch or a feature? Are utterly impenetrable shields unless you out-DPS the enemy regen a good thing? I don\'t think so.

      Tiny bug: Built wedges change alignment

      I use this as a feature since there is no other way to have an openable glass cockpit which gives access to a small fighter\'s core, faction module, etc. (Adding unsightly metal doors? Do they have those on F-16s?)

      Some figures for Storage, AMC, Salvage, and Thruster

      It\'s worth noting that if you try to build a bigass main weapon battery out of thousands and thousands of single AMCs, you may run into performance problems. I observed the game freezing for a fraction of a second as I added or removed AMCs from the CPU, and freezing for a fraction of a second...

      Exploit to Make Missiles Ignore Shields

      Did you have anyone on the other ship to see what was going on with its shield values? A couple days ago, two of us tried replicating this with just missiles against a 400,000 s/sec (IIRC) starship. I was on the missile firing ship, the other player was on the shielded target. First we tried...

      StarMade 0.09377

      The modified blueprint detecror, while a good idea, needs a re-think as to the implementation and if there might be better ways. 1. Upload a design somewhere where the settings (e.g. block costs) do not match what they were when you saved the BP. ZOMG A HACKER! Suggest instead verifying that...

      The Catalogue System is Absolutely Broken and is Exploitable

      Or drive players apart because their ship orders keep depleting all the stores.

      Damage delt by NPC goes through shields.

      Did it look like their shots were missing? A few times I\'ve had pirates shooting at me and appearing to be way off, and I ended up losing hull while my shields appeared intact. I\'m suspecting a miscommunication between server and client - what you see, and assume, is happening is not what is...

      General Game Issues [Not Bugs]

      If the game will not save your Singleplayer games etc, or update, make sure it is in a folder it has write access to, such as your Documents folder, or a folder you yourself created (not program files). It uses the old long-deprecated paradigm of saving things in its own folder rather than the...

      Docking bays overhaul.

      The green box is not remotely accurate. With no enhancers, 5 tiles away from the core in every direction is the limit, have anything any further and it will object (meaning 11x11x11 if your core is dead center of the ship). Demonstration: P.S. I used power generators because they were...

      Some figures for Missiles.

      Double-checked myself, noticed what you said was the best block count for missile DPS (12) didn\'t match up with my calculations. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ArfBRDTBNF_LdHlYN1NkYzZ4UENnV1RaNk5iVHlxWUE&usp=sharing I recorded the data for 1-21 blocks worth of missiles (SD-KBs...
