Simple enough. server.cfg -> option to disable planet mining. When option is enabled, non-astronaut salvage beams do not have any effect on planet plates at all. Of course, I think astronauts should always be able to mine planets to prevent getting stranded.

At this point it suffers due to the extremely high player count. No amount of rules can prevent that from being extremely difficult for a server to handle, I don't think - unless the server magically gets a dozen admins from around the world overnight to constantly patrol player positions. I...

They're there, they just get buried extremely quickly. The simple fact of the matter is that the community in general is not made up of computer scientists and such. Any technical explanations of issues in programming terms tend to go over peoples' heads very quickly, and suggestions on how to...

Because space doesn't suddenly stop existing around you even when you're in the middle of nowhere. I can guarantee you that if you went *anywhere* in the universe, you would be able to see light from somewhere at some point in the sky.

Periodically, on heavily populated servers, players are unable to receive chunk information, resulting in bizarre and ridiculous problems such as only being able to render the single chunk immediately surrounding other ships' core rooms, or what have you. This happening even rarely is enormously...

Note for future reference: It is possible to disable Skype's "Automatically accept incoming files" feature. Tools -> Options -> IM & SMS -> IM Settings -> Show Advanced -> Uncheck the box If you are vehemently opposed to receiving NSFW images in a group chat, I strongly suggest doing this.

Thanks for clearing that up, mate. :D

First *and* last name were posted afterwards, guys. That response has since been removed by moderators.

Cleaned out the inactive players on the member list. If you were a member and you become active again, just shoot me a PM and I'll re-add you.

Overdrive totally annihilates your power efficiency, you know. Most of the time, I've found that you end up needing more space for the power capacity than you save on the weapon size itself. Incidentally, missiles now use the new/advanced explosion system rather than the "sphere of death" thing...

...45 seconds to adjust your aim after missing? What kind of gun are you even using? The only things that punish you for missing are Cannon-Pulse and Cannon-Beam, which are 15 and 5 second reload times respectively, I seem to remember. Not sure exactly, but it's somewhere around there. In the...

I think that was fixed. Beams hit targets just fine lately.

Yeah, no. Closing it. We don't want them. I recommend Mandalore or Khanid Domain.

So, a minor annoyance that I think, if fixed, could save people some headaches. Waypoint setting in nav is a bit annoying and slow. Kinda breaks immersion. I propose that all number sets that appear in the format of coordinates be clickable in the chatbox for automatic waypoint setting. I also...

What Jaaskinal is saying is accurate. A flat angle of armor is a death sentence unless you make it extremely thick, whereas curved hulls are stronger against missiles and wedge (read: Star Destroyer) hulls are extremely difficult to kill with cannons. The reason is simple: take a one block...

Won't be over for another several months to two years, I expect. There's a reason I tell new players not to get involved with large factions.

Tanks and mechs still have to deal with a simple issue that hasn't been covered here. Surface area and mass. Mechs by default would, unless effectively wearing snowshoes, dig themselves deeply enough into the ground with each step that their height and leg advantage would be nullified in hilly...

The situation with Black Flag has been wrapped up. PilotClone23 did glorious battle with Azereiah and Lecic using a Trident Industries Brawler. The battle lasted for several minutes due to server lag misrepresenting positions and shield values, but the ship was eventually defeated and reclaimed...

That actually really fucked the Allies up. Everyone expected the German tank forces to run into Allied fixed guns and tank destroyer forces, but the Germans never actually drove where they were expected to. Really, in Starmade, travel time is short enough and faction territory is empty enough...

It's a decorative thing :P
