      Idea's at how to design a good looking ship

      I build a frame first, just a wire outline, then i put armor plated on top of that, and i keep adding detail. Split up your plates into large, simple-looking bits. Add details by cutting into them and adding stuff instead of putting stuff on top. Add realistic details, fuel tanks, pipes and...

      Shields and turrets

      You realise Shift + v links groups right? I spend about 2% of my building time actually linking things.

      Remote activation blocks and labeled cameras

      For No. 2, use your docking beam to hit an activator. It will activate it.

      Shields and turrets

      I've given some thought to this. I'd like to suggest to ability to link both types of shield blocks to docks, both turret and static. The linked blocks no longer count towards the motherships shield count, and instead provide shields to the entity that is docked in the zone that has the shield...

      PUBLIC.ENTITIES not found?

      Are you trying to run on an old universe? Don't do that, it causes problems. Reset, or create a new install and try again.

      Restrict eject ship if at speed.

      If you align (space while looking at entity) to the ship, this will happen. You will be part of the ship 'world'. Really you're just attaching yourself to the ship entity.

      New GUI ... new issues

      Open the storage. Find it in build mode.

      Restrict eject ship if at speed.

      Isn't this already a thing? By default, if you are moving at over 50m/s the game should display a message when you try to get out of the core. This speed is configurable in settings.cfg G_MUST_CONFIRM_DETACHEMENT_AT_SPEED = 50.0

      Playing with missile turrets

      Don't forget to look at the missiles reload times. They are important. Capacity, on turrets using that much power is more important. IIRC, turrets will draw power for weaponry from the dock, but not for shield regen. So it's a good idea to have a little onboard regen just to keep their shields...

      Java, man.

      Uninstall all traces of Java, then try re-installing the 64 bit version. If that doesn't work, back up all yo' data and re-install windows. That'll solve your problems lol.

      advanced locic blocks

      You can trigger activators by shooting them with the docking beam, that's sort of like the receiver idea. You can link plexdoors to activators to cover turrets when not in use - though I have no idea how effective this actually is. Logic activator on your hotbar is abusable as a 'fire all...

      This game is so fcking broken, how did it make it to steam with f3 still in?

      Did you not read my first post? Get used to it. Seriously, thousands of people have played the game, and have loved it. Bugs, 'cheats' and all. Just heads up. The database window (F3) doesn't show what players are using, it just shows loaded entities. When the list refreshes, it forces you...

      The game can be rebalanced at ANY time. For christ sake, you can do it yourself.

      This game is so fcking broken, how did it make it to steam with f3 still in?

      Welcome to the wonderful world of 'Alpha' games. If you don't like it, don't play on servers or don't play the game at all. There are many hotkeys and button combos that can be abused, these will be removed by the time the game hits 1.0 All the hotkeys are there for testing/debug purposes...

      Is there a problem with my game?

      Solution: Bigger gunz Seriously, faction modules have crazy-high armor stats. Get a weapon that deals over 1,000 per shot and you should be golden :) No idea about the stations, however! Sorry!

      Terrible FPS near planets

      Planets in Starmade are very resource-intensive. They have threaded generation and can cripple high end PCs. I go from 800+ fps down to under 10 if i'm not careful loading in planets. Your best bet would be to lower planet size to allow faster loading. Open server.cfg with notepad, or a...
