      The Odium Pact

      I will happily post a warning on any group's recruitment thread, as it is not "off topic" to inform potential recruits of the drawbacks of joining that group, much in the same way I'll happily put up warning signs around sinkholes and minefields. Posting a new thread is unproductive in this...

      The Odium Pact

      Which is why I said "with the pin pulled" - you don't jump on live ammunition unless there's a really, really good reason for it.

      The Odium Pact

      Grenades with the pins pulled don't have warning labels, and people tend to agree that any attempt at handling them, even with care, is extremely unhealthy.

      The Odium Pact

      Overly restrictive rules damage relationships. Factions which are based on familiarity and trust do better in the long run, despite the possible threat of assholes trying to ruin their day with no readily apparent reason other than "Other people aren't allowed to be happy". I advise others to...

      The Odium Pact

      Hey man, the more people don't get involved, the better. The attitude put forth by the "Pact" is probably a good thing for the rest of the community.

      Y'all have fun with that.

      What Can Crew Members Do?

      They're a work-in-progress, like the entire rest of the game. Still, they're in the game in the first place, so I suppose it couldn't hurt for us to start building rooms, bunks, barracks, etc. for them in most of our ships...

      How to change Mass Place Size?

      Try server.cfg

      It's hard to play with collision damage turned on

      Which would be a bit simpler, because it's just one large box instead of a complex mesh like a ship. :P

      Hull Painting or Block Type Conversion

      Repeated block replacement, paintbrush style, would be good. Click and hold, and it does its thing. Brush size in advanced build mode could just do its brush size thing and we'd be all set.

      A Manifesto on the Relationship Between Fighters, Titans and AI

      You're forgetting the massive amount of space needed to use fighter drones. In a straight capital ship fight, you're better off using that space for more guns and shields.

      Calderon

      Hey, don't tell him when he's doing something stupid. You're risking cutting the amount of potential fun down.

      A new Turret accuracy mechanic.

      At the very least, turning applies because of inertia. You spin something, it'll want to keep spinning, and you need some pretty strong and accurate motors to stop it from spinning. Thus, the accuracy issue. As for while moving, perhaps sudden changes in velocity decreases accuracy a little for...

      A new Turret accuracy mechanic.

      How about we do it like most other shooters? If the turret is moving or turning, its accuracy is lower. If it's firing at a stationary target, its accuracy will be pinpoint. The turret will naturally attempt to lead the target as well, so if something's moving in a constant, straight line...

      Is this game dead?

      When we know it's not just going to die there too. Guncraft looked pretty promising, but they released on Steam too early, and ended up losing the vast majority of their community (as in, 20ish people play it anymore in total)

      Hull Hardening Effects

      You have to turn the effect module's computer on in the weapons hotbar.

      What do you think about the new shield system?

      I like the concept. Space superiority fighters with high recharges vs. bombers with high capacities for surviving single runs and returning to the carrier.

      Massive Circles.

      Seconding this. Windows XP method I use is to set the image size attributes to the circle diameter, then zoom to 800% and enable the grid view.
