      Semi-Proper Explosions

      Using superheated gas and metal fragments as shrapnel, with radiation damage as an added bonus for nukes pls

      HP based mining

      Our refined subsuggestions make that possible ;)

      HP based mining

      I approve of Leanson's suggestion - steady block income as salvagers drain Core HP. You can either do a quick mine of the entire planet for a short term resource boost, or you can set up salvager based core quarries that keep the planet just under full HP regen for passive, permanent automining...

      The Thryn [Recruitment Limited]

      We're mostly spending our time on the NFD Build Server, working on making usable blueprints to spawn in on Shattered Skies. We're currently waiting for turret collision checks to be less laggy before doing any sort of serious in-server stuff. No telling if we'll be interested, overall, in being...

      Warhead Damage

      No. Warheads just don't do what they're supposed to do. The damage numbers people are posting are from small numbers of warheads that collide into the inside of the enemy ship, then explode multiple times from collision checks before Starmade deletes them.

      Furniture - Detailing Block (invisible reference block)

      We already have a lot of suggestions on getting furniture and such, and as far as I can tell, that kind of thing is pretty much confirmed already. This is about how we could place detail and furniture blocks and objects. Carpets! Chairs! Desks! Wallpaper! Things like that. Display modules...

      Make tab + f6 only availale to admins

      I think the plan is something like that. Either that or astronauts colliding based on serverside stuff.

      Turbolift/Ziptube, Still want them and why I think they are a good Idea

      I personally wouldn't mind a really simple gravlift block system. Player enters block, player moves in block orientation direction quicklyish. Disembark blocks slow the player to 0.5-1m/s so they can get out safely.

      Make tab + f6 only availale to admins

      That's a bug that's being patched.

      A History of Factions

      Solid details such as comparative fleet masses, losses, and retreats are needed to provide a view of the battle that's not contested by the less well off faction.

      Planned Better Solar Systems (More Cool Stuff!)

      We're getting randomly generated animals some time, along with (much later) (unconfirmed) randomly generated plantlife.

      A History of Factions

      I suggest that we mention retreats, numbers of what mass ships, and degree of damage on both sides if any party can remember it.

      A History of Factions

      Conflicting information nullifies itself. Screenshot evidence is evidence of an event taking place at a given location or with a given minimum number of ships of estimated sizes, but further information is all word of mouth, which cannot be trusted if there is a conflict of interest between...

      Planned Better Solar Systems (More Cool Stuff!)

      Bright fluffy clouds for the astronaut safe area, with the fog becoming thicker as you go in. As a rule, if you can't see several meters ahead of you, it's not safe to jump out of your ship. Meanwhile, enterprising players with utility ships could theoretically pull wreckages out of gas giants...

      Planned Better Solar Systems (More Cool Stuff!)

      I propose an alternate solution to gas giants - a set gravity distance above the non-block core, and an inverted gravity "bouyancy zone" under the set distance, with a "normal zone" between. The result is that ships sink in, hit the normal zone where the planet repulses the ship itself, and...

      A History of Factions

      We used an array of 97x cannon-pulse-punch guns on the Ordinator, ourselves. Used to blow clean through any size ship you'd like with a nice 11x11 non-checkerboard hole. I used it for core sniping at long ranges. In any case, yeah, glad we got that one cleared up.

      A History of Factions

      Might've been some other guy who got killed across the galaxy if a nametag popped up. I think he was going after Zoro's ship. I just remember that both of us managed to dock our ships back at the homebase successfully after we got out of there. My ship had some minor internal damage where your...

      A History of Factions

      We had no scout ships and Neon was unscathed, but aside from that, that sounds about right.
