I would love it if there was a period of alignment after undocking similar to astronaut alignment/attachment. Sort of soft docking until it exits the bounding box of its parent entity under its own power. Would save a lot of collision shenanigans.

Damage to own shield first then it keeps checking down the docking chain until it finds a shield >50% If it cannot find a shield >50% apply the damage to hit entity.

The hit entities bonus will be used when damage is transferred down the chain (turret barrel being the top of the chain, your ship being the lowest). So if the armour has 0% ion bonus, it will do 100% damage to its own shield, and any shield the damage is transferred to. If the armour has 60%...

It depends on the entity hit, if the armour is hit it will use the armours ion bonus when passing it down the chain. If the shield (shield entity not shield stat) is hit it will use the shields ion bonus If the main ship is hit it will use the main ships ion bonus.

With armour you want to isolate it on top of the shield, so main ship -> shield -> armour. this causes armour to ablate at 50% while maintaining shield regen. Also means less effect modules needed, but also means relatively weak armour unless you use large chunks. ion on the armour reduces...

I would prefer micro-gates as well.

Would be great if we could use the marker beam and slaving to modify ship bobby AI behavior, by binding it to blocks on other entities or various computers on the bobbies ship. For a few examples, If you want a bobby to patrol you mark the bobby, then bind it to a station or planet block. The...

Yep bigdog and its variants will be excellent pack mules.

Scenario not really needed, Mechs are the equivalent of a dude balancing a chair on two legs with a 40kg pack, who has to fire his rifle without falling over. As cool as mechs are, they just aren't practical in any way :( Just like to add, there is a reason 'walkers' in many robotics...

Well we have skid racing, why not tank wars?

Cool as Mechs are, Tanks have it. We just need true ballistic weapons for planet side warfare.

With starmade you are likely to have to rely on physical systems (eg rotator blocks) or a PRNG in logic to get usable randomness. A feedback register would probably be one of the simplest to implement.

The armour system could do with more work, not seeing many issues with the hp system though personally.

Wouldnt mind getting my hands on a redemption hull, thats one sleek ship (yay amarr).

I've had no troubles with a simple delay-not-not either, question should probably be what are you using for clocks?

2 RAM systems with internal ablative shielding for maximum over troll.

Consider it a strip down and refit, 'repair' or reboot the ship at a shop if you need to first then do it if you want to limit/not feel so cheaty about it. Too bad starmade doesn't have pipe cleaners ;)

Well after further play testing, I don't really see the new HP system as a problem. I can understand how homogenous ship designs can face serious issues, but its up to them if they want to keep to their outdated designs.

Better to make onions than bread loaves.

There is a silly simple solution to your problem. Take your waffle and turn it into a linear array.
