      How cargo just happened.

      You TOTALLY missed my hint. NVM, you'll see.

      kickstarter?

      I doubt there's going to be a paywall for anything BUT the core game. If you are buying language packs then you're getting shafted. MY advice would be to video tape yourself paying for the language packs and then posting that on the internet and hope you make some of the money back with ad-revenue.

      How cargo just happened.

      @FunnyBunny14 PROTIP: Keep all those ZERO COST items. Don't space them and let them time out. There are zeroed for a reason and it won't be changed.

      The new HP based system WILL change that. I think we need to see a weapons system balance before we start tweaking the default block HP and ship HP calculations. Basically when enough blocks have gone missing the core will begin to overheat killing anyone interacting with the core. At that point...

      The game and the community are in alpha. I mean that. We are the alpha user base. The first, the most experienced and the least likely to enjoy big splashy changes. The game has done from a "shoot your way to the core" PoC to a full blown Multiplayer Sandbox. The aim is to create a stable...

      We have a system in place that works. Look at all the updates. We do not need more eyes on the code. The schine team is compartmentalized for good reasons. As a mod I'm just an extra in a movie with a single scene walkon part. Schema, calbiri, audentio etc are the talent. On any set there's an...

      How cargo just happened.

      Of all the typos I've made with far greater possibilities you latch on to that one? I promise to be impressed later. Those options for shops already exist. It's just an editable XML file. If you can change the contents with notepad it's open game. That's why teh sckeams dood eet dattawaiz. You...

      The schine engine is 10 years of schema's life. He's prolly jump in a 10 foot vat of green jell-o rather than allow anyone access to it. Or at the very least he'd weigh mortal cessation by flavored collogen against his hard work. No.. the fewer people with hands in the code the better. We'll...

      How cargo just happened.

      How about a warp-elevator or wrap-car? just a small vehicle to get through a small gate to go grab supplies at the warehouse/depot.

      How cargo just happened.

      The idea is already out there to have salvaged items go into storage. My hope is someday to build mining AI to clear out asteroid and debris fields. They are excellent marks for would be player pirates too. They could get away with some loot without having to attack someone specifically. We'd...

      How cargo just happened.

      On NASS we run the DS/TS:SMDaemon so we've had a bit of time to play with FTL like situations. As it is now I plan to use my Daemon jump nodes in favor of the new FTL. Because even if the gates are not your cup of tea there are other options. I have my main base and two outlying bases both over...

      How cargo just happened.

      Getting up to speed. As you know we can no longer buy something without being near a shop. With gate based FTL upon us this makes transporting raw material and produced goods to and from funded markets a challenge. Inexpensive transport vessels are now a better idea than ever. You can still keep...

      kickstarter?

      The ol' donate button does get its uses and people register for copies of the game all the time. I think a lot of the schine team is pretty proud of how we've progressed without some sort of crowd funding. The game is making it on it's own merits. Even with the bugs inheirent to an alpha. Even...

      Salvagers dont focus

      love the user name you chose. As far as I recal salvagers have always fired unfocused. You can try a few asteroids and see if there is some sort of focal length issue. Tho I can't think of many uses for focused salvagers sine it wouldn't affect how they harvest.

      If the Checkers board game was like StarMade

      Every server can be set up differently. The vanilla configs are meant to test the game out. You know, cuz it's in friggin alpha still. And free. Still. All a server admin has to do is change the value of blocks by one order of magnitude and BOOM, balanced economy. It's a real shame no one has...

      Space Sims

      I've plated every space themed game I could get my hands on. It can be a real wasteland. Space Rogue (Origins 1998)got close with 3D flight and FTL with RPG twists but I was really disappointed that the locations you visited were not 3D as well when two years prior Yuji Naka produced a 3D...

      Space Sims

      I know the guy who made vegastrike. A lot of people at a certain forum have no love for him or his project. I tested a very early beta of the game. AAMOF I think I still have a copy some place. Privateer Remake was a nice effort too. Past that early beta tho I never could get the game to run...
