      Debate : Current spreading of the faction community : good or bad ?

      nothing quite like getting your hands on a 500k block ship by spending only 100k credits on day one

      Have you bought Starmade?

      Only reason not to buy it is having no credit/debit card. :P

      ElwynEternity Starmade server

      Why? It's literally one bit of remote access shenanigans. One guy with too much time on his hands, an idea of a login username, and a rainbow tables program could get in. Server administration generally requires access, at the very least, to game files - and usually that means access to the...

      ElwynEternity Starmade server

      I'm gonna go ahead and take Rimmer's side on this. I know for a fact that some extremely shady characters with good tech skills are hanging around the community. If there's any sort of remote server access at all, then yeah, it's at risk.

      Explosion graphics

      Simple enough. Scale up the explosion sprite to match the blast radius of the explosion and the damage of the missile. Maybe slap a Star Wars esque shock ring model into the mix or something, I dunno. Please. It'd make gameplay videos and trailers a lot better. >_>

      Factionless player mining bonuses

      Pirates don't shoot unfactioned and offline ships, mate. <_<; Pirates also very, very rarely spawn. The vast majority of pirate spawns are from when you shoot a pirate base.

      Factionless player mining bonuses

      Because they have no reason to move further out.

      Factionless player mining bonuses

      No need to have a "safe" homebase if absolutely nobody finds out where it is. Unfactioned players not using real "homebases" don't have to worry about people finding their base, unless the person finding their base is using some sort of major exploit, because homebases get their positions...

      Factionless player mining bonuses

      You know the problem of system claim saturation and excessive one to two man factions? I think part of that is due to factionless players needing to claim systems to get the mining bonus. I feel that players with no faction should get the full mining bonus from empty space, and get very little...

      Massive Game Optimisation is Required and the possibility of using Steam for multiplayer services

      If you spend all of your time fixing bugs, the game becomes less optimized. If you optimize the game, it introduces thousands of new gamebreaking bugs. VAC works with games based on C and the like - specifically, Valve's game engines. Trying to apply VAC to a java game is like trying to fly a...

      Personal weapons

      I would love to have ship style voxel construction of infantry gear - both weapons *and* armor. But it'd need to be possible to destroy an astronaut's weapons and armor for that to work well at all.

      Sound track idea

      FL Studio or LMMS will save your life. Unless you're talking about doing some crap like Spore has.

      Brainstorm This Asteroid spawning and balancing mining

      My thoughts are that firstly, we should make larimar asteroids a bit more common. Secondly, asteroid respawning needs to be implemented *properly* - perhaps on a timer of some sort? Say, every X hours, a sector respawns its asteroids - with a pretty big thing. Only asteroids that have been...

      Fix missiles so they are actually useful.

      I remember on the old bug tracker, there was a "feature" listed in the to-do list to give missiles mass and newtonian physics, but I don't know if that's still planned.

      Bought game from Humble Bundle and installed, seems to only be the demo version

      Good job, Humble Bundle, selling a free game. Can someone in Schine go shout at them for me? They need to at the very least be giving out keys to register your purchase on the SM registry.
