      starmade needs an intro track

      Yeah, it definitely needs more of a hook rather than an undefined series of nice sounding music. All the great scifi shows have a hook in their theme. You can whistle the theme in 5 notes or less and people will get it. Dr. who, 3 notes. you've got it Star Trek TNG 6 notes. Star Trek...

      starmade needs an intro track

      Every great scifi epic has am intro. Star wars, star trek, Dr who, star gate, etc. Starmade needs something epic as well. Maybe a little more on the ambience side I'm thinking. Anyone know some musically talented people?

      Undo restores removed storage unit contents.

      How about being able to push a storage unit around. That way you can slide it away from the work area. Disallow removal of filled boxes. Enable you to transport the box onto different ships.

      Crime and punishment

      Either suicide would be disabled when bounty hunters are near, or upon death, you would drop whatever bounty you owe upon suicide.

      Non-active turrets resuming default orientation

      I think it should be a check mark option. I've found turrets are useful for planes and angles I can't normally accomplish. They also make great ramps onto docked ships.

      Separate ID and texture. Each block can be plated!

      I like the idea of blocks taking up half the space. Things would look more real if that were the case. Something else I was thinking, we could eliminate 90% of the hull blocks by just allowing paint application. You could just have standard Grey hull, and then you can paint them all...

      Crime and punishment

      We know what's planned, we're suggesting possibly better systems. And if you read my previous paragraphs, you'd know that my idea would not allow you to collect any bounty by simply killing the player. You'd have to cripple his ship and capture him.

      What New Ship Systems Would be Useful?

      The system would attempt the move you into position in larger ships. It wouldn't be a magic teleport beam.

      Crime and punishment

      Currently, but if this system was enabled, I'm sure a stop beam could at least be partially made to slow down jump drives. Besides, the offender should have the opportunity to escape, it won't help him any, but he can avoid paying the bounty for now. Another thing, maybe the player can opt...

      Owning starsystems and a (linked, kinda) better universe map.

      I started a thread on this subject. Go check it out. I explain in detail and expand upon my idea.

      Round Planets!

      You'd program the blocks to exist stuck together just like they are now, but they'd be slightly smaller in the bottom than the top. The unexposed blocks wouldn't even exist until they are revealed. Furthermore, from a distance, you'd use a poly shape in liu of any blocks. It would run just...

      Teleportation Mechanic suggestions

      well, according to the votes so far, everyone thinks it would be a defining feature that would make the game much more immersive.

      What New Ship Systems Would be Useful?

      I think they should replace current docking blocks with a simple connector block. If you can get the 2 blocks close enough together, possibly touching, they would automatically attach to each other. The strength of the connection could be determined by the number of connected blocks and the...

      Best Ways to Incorporate Ammo

      No ammo please. I'm sick of ammo. Just use replicators that automatically feed the ammo into the launchers. woo!

      Crime and punishment

      Yeah, I thought of that too, but the thing is, destroying an enforcement ship worth 10,000,000 credits would add a bounty of 11,000,000 credits. It wouldn't pay off in the end because they'd eventually still have to pay off that bounty, or flee to the outermost corners of the galaxy. As for...

      Round Planets!

      with big enough planets, spheres become relatively simple. The overlap at the bottom of the individual blocks wouldn't even be noticeable down to the deepest crust you can mine. No warping required. The block density to area would be slightly higher at the bottom of the crust, and the top may...

      Crime and punishment

      Ok, this was an idea that had resulted from another post that I thought deserved it's own thread. The idea stems from the following principles. A: This is a creative game and a player v player combat game, not an everything is MINE and I will destroy what I want game. B...

      New weapons. Effectors, Minelayers, bombs, torpedoes, plasma throwers, flak cannons and breachers.

      @wolfboyft I'm sorry to be rude, and really don't mean to start anything by saying this, please don't take it the wrong way, but the more ideas I read from you, the more I realize that your ideas are terrible. I don't like anything you've had to say about suggested changes.... Now that isn't...
