They shouldn't be thinking exponential power vs thrust, they should be thinking exponential power vs acceleration. v = m*a or v = m*v^2 Smaller ships would have an easy time reaching max speeds, but titans would start to consume more power at greater thrusts than would be manageable in a fight...

Whoever voted that it would ruin the game, I don't agree. Duh.... lol

Yes exactly.

There is no reason a massive ship wouldn't have more massive thrusters to accelerate them even faster than a small ship. I would think it should be a huge power drain and disable the continuous use of lots of other systems though. Why does a giant ship have to go as slow as a turtle? It's...

Why not just have ships that are too large disconnect once the other ship moves? Docking enhancers would make more sense if they increased the strength of the enhancer so the disconnection doesn't happen upon movement.

Not unless it was designed that way. Think thrusters mounted on a 360 degree swiveling platform for example. The technology is there (in real life). Besides isn't stopping just as important as moving forward? (If not more so) I can see a fighter not being able to go full reverse. They can...

I was thinking that they should add a floating camera with a materializer attached to the player's position during build mode. I was thinking it could be a translucent glowing blue robot looking thing. It would be made of light or something, so it would still be able to no clip through walls...

I see what you're saying, but I don't see how that could work... If you placed a bounty on someone, you're basically demanding they pay you. I can go and place a bounty then on the richest person on the server (Player A), and when someone (Player B) captures them, Player B gets 10% of the...

My opinion, may it get lost in this sea of voices: If you put 100% of your thrusters in 1 direction, you should still have a minimum thrust available in every other direction, say 20%? You think this is unreasonable? I give you 3 reasons why it is NOT. #1 Harrier jump jet It has...

Docking enhancers are stupid.

It's possible Angled windows and doors, and better paint jobs.

........... Please try to read everything I type, not just small parts of it. please. Again, a bounty is added through a "good" faction. Your definition of bounty is obviously more akin to a contract, or murder for hire. This is like that game Hit Man, where you play agent 47 who kills...

Again, that's called a Hit List. That's the sort of thing that you might do if you were aligned with the pirate factions instead of the protector factions. I would think both putting a hit on someone, and carrying it out would garner a bounty, personally, so long as you're in protected space...

probably wouldn't hurt them at all.... :-\

I'm basing my version of bounties on real life bounty hunters. The money has to come from somewhere. Usually, it's a fine or a settlement, or bail, unpaid by the fugitive. The bounty hunter would then get a percentage of the uncollected money upon capturing the fugitive who would then have...

It's not how it works unless you program it that way. You may need to go deeper into the code to do it without warping the coordinate system, but it's possible. And if the planet is big enough, you wouldn't notice any warping effects anyway. I was also thinking, if you created several...

WHAT?! that makes no sense. My system in know way creates money out of thin air, no does it promote "base raping" If you run an attack on the base and do X monetary damage, then your friend kills you, he would get .1X of the money directly from you, if anything at all. Any additional money...

What if your cloaking blocks only cloaked the blocks within it's radius. Each cloaking block would require X amount of power which is higher for the number of blocks that cloaking device has to cloak, and lower if it shares the blocks with another cloaker. You could force deactivate the shield...

I was looking for an email. Couldn't find it. Maybe I was too tired.

LOLZ. Saber is right here on the forum, that's pretty cool. I've been watching his videos non-stop for the last 3 weeks. I wish he'd review my PYRO corvette :-D http://starmadedock.net/content/pyro-gtx-mk10-corvette-descent-2.1403/ or the smaller fighter version...
