VIP shuttle, Slave/Captured-Transports, Mass Transportation (evacuation or civilian like current 150 person air planes) I like it, but do Interceptors not need to be fast? and destroyers more weapons against orbital fortress? You don't need 3D for 4 states. You can make 5 triangles with...

I guess with the jump-when-dock @Lecic Place a docking module in the middle of your elevator ceiling or floor and dock the elevator module with core in middle. Nice strategy btw.

Do they not disappear after some time?

How about adding a target object's speed as your offset-speed by pull-effect-%?

I like the new planets, but I also miss the continuous plane. To have larger (non-laggy) ones: I would like planets to have less chunks to load. would like an option to reduce chunk count to 1 vertically (or dynamic loading of chunks below). But maybe it is just my hardware or missing...

I just worry about this leading to higher rewards when you are off-line because the USA/European/Asian peoples trade or for peoples already having an advantage by starting on this server earlier. The time zone would chain you even more to your PC and that creates a bad game environment.

@TomansJetson You speak in past. What happened? @Crusade How do you manage to have it stop exactly where you want it? Not 1/2 block deeper or higher

Building a ship with a long nose and turn it through some jump-station => 700 speed :)

I just think that black on grey and yellow + lime-green are not the best combination of colors. would be fun if blocks would reflect dynamic scanner-light back (you can only see lights of your currently controlled entity to reduce lag) Then they would only be visible if you have some sort of...

I figured out that you can create resources by using the XY mirror plane. Works with rock only (maybe orientation bits are used for this feature?) EDIT: gives just this one ore type (at least on this same planet - even though you go to another segment)

Seems like the code really has to learn some way to know how many of each blocks are at the side/top/below/behind/in-front all others in at least one direction. So many nice ideas ruined by this fact ... (cloak hull,...)

I like the heat idea. That makes big vs small ships balanced without any hard-coded limit. Volume grows faster than surface area.

WOW, that is ... unexpected! crashed with 1 mass when it should support 100 (that really excludes all calculation errors with 1 vs 10 Newton and mass vs block count...) How fast does map gravity accelerate you? If you bump of the ground (due to rotation caused by collisions) how fast does a...

We have iron. There are near infinite worlds in near infinite star systems in near infinite galaxies. There has to be at least one alien species which have the same name as one of our ores for iron. ferrum, iron, Eisen, ... This game does not need to be all English. Maybe English will some day...

You don't see that you will only get the cheapest L1 crap from pirates, maybe a few L2. The expensive party you have to craft yourself. L2 should be standard, L3 should be very expensive that you only equip only your flagship or very small things (escape pods, warp-scouts) with it (because it's...

Maybe we will invent magnetic lenses which can push a shuttle into orbit using energy from a ground station (gravity-rays, ...) According to http://peswiki.com/index.php/Directory:Andrea_A._Rossi_Cold_Fusion_Generator we already have micro-fusion generators fusing hydrogen+nickel. A 1-2 litre...

The staff said something like: If we name it after real ones, peoples will ask: why do we need uranium/iridium for hull ... But if we choose fantasy names, peoples will accept resource costs more likely as given and that makes balance easier. (Not exactly this words!)

I have made my own texture mix (based on some others). Power generators are Walzou's Plex-Lift-frames above lava for example. I hope you can see this picture (not embedding as it is a big one): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3J3ky5LiwtCOTlGUU9iT0Y4Wk0/edit?usp=sharing Maybe some inspiration :)

We have that. I guess it does not work because planet segments are located near the core or it is difficult to compare the distance of chunks on different objects to each other.
