Whether it's something along the lines of what Duke suggested, or a full-on "purchase to vote" thing, I do stand by the idea that next term should feature further effort to filter out potential voting alts.

FP penalties on death, as far as I can tell, serve to discourage conflict and risk-taking. Assuming an economy in which there isn't retarded inflation due to mining multipliers, material loss alone should discourage stupid risks; tacking on a significant FP cost is just insult to injury, and...

Lmao why

It seems that you misunderstand, I think. As Comr4de said, SS got it about as "right" as it can be, with admins using separate accounts with the "ADM_" prefix for actually performing their administrative duties, and personal survival accounts while off-duty. Nonetheless, conflicts of interest...

Alongside this (which I think is a good suggestion, to be sure), I think it would be pretty neat if the "danger zone" of each star could be displayed in the map, much the same way that asteroid belt sectors have an option to be highlighted. Such a zone is obviously sector-based, so it shouldn't...

Jaaskinal's publically-available logic drive is a pretty serviceable example of a logic drive done properly. Actually reaching the same charge rate as a manual jump drive is very challenging, but this model is reasonably fast, compact, and works well for the stated purpose of long FTL voyages...

Okay, no. Let's not pretend that, in the current (or even planned, that I'm aware of) balance of the game, ships receiving all the capabilities of a station (besides homebaseing and system claiming) , free of downsides or balancing factors, would be balanced at all. Such a ship would be...

No. A fairly clear precedent about such logic has already been set; part-blocks have the same mass and HP as the full block, and I get the impression that will not be changing any time soon. From that, one can deduce that any other change based on the idea that a half-block is less than a full...

I very much doubt that any potential players were looking at this thread until you necroed it. Which you've been doing to a lot of threads, incidentally. Please bear in mind whether or not a thread is still active before posting in it, and whether or not your contribution is new or relevant.

Yeah, other people have already pointed out the error of this statement. Good strawman, friend. For the sake of avoiding redundancy, I'll just direct you to any reasonable post in this thread.

Turning on the "mirror cubes" option in advanced build mode should do the trick. EDIT: Maybe not, just realized that you're rotating them, not using symmetry. Try anyway, I guess, but it might not help in this case.

Radar jamming has the subsequent effects: Hides the nav diamonds of the jamming ship and all docked entities, both in the HUD and the Navigation menu Prevents players from locking onto you with missiles (on account of your nav diamond being gone) Decreases AI accuracy with beam and cannon...

This, tbh. At present, I'd say the homebase is too strong for what it is, but with appropriate balancing all-round, so that there are limits on what the HB can do, and other stations can be actually defended (rather than being easily killable regardless of one's efforts), then there should be no...

Seeing as my name has been called and the sacred rituals of summoning have been performed, I figure I might as well add my two cents. Jaaskinal has already made a post that I feel addresses most of your points quite well, so this may be redundant. It is true that "faction tech" and the...

This sounds like something which the game's current lighting engine couldn't handle well, given that dynamic/cross-entity lighting is not possible. I suppose you could just put a transparent layer over the whole game window (below the UI), but to be quite frank I think that colour-shifting...

Are you able to add station-only reactor blocks to the config? If so, a potential way to lock out shield regens from being used on ships is to up their power costs by a few orders of magnitude, and create reactors (which only stations can use) with similarly buffed output. To ensure that other...

The general public is able to add suggestions to the document itself, which are then moderated and approved/denied based on their relevance and veracity. I suggest that both of you do so (go to the google doc, scroll down to the bottom, add your suggestion).

I mean, high-speed docking isn't a very big issue in Starmade; and if it was, you'd still just fire your docker at the rail and be immediately attached to it, with all momentum transferred to somewhere else in the process. So mechanically speaking, building some sort of traditional aircraft...

I think a functionality akin to "create dock" might be usable and simple to implement. Select the logic block to move, click "move logic block" in advanced build mode, and click on the place you want it moved to.

You misunderstand. You can indeed set a waypoint by doing so, but the functionality OP refers to is being able to save your current coordinates as a bookmark, which you then have the option to set as a waypoint at a later time. This is a useful feature, but requires you to be at the location in...
