      Challenge: Smallest 1,000,000 power/s reactor.

      Yes, that block links to a single which extends in the axis you can\'t see and increases the power. It would make more visual sense if there was another layer above it. Imagine two chopsticks laying across each other and perpendicular to each other, that\'s the sort of principal employed...

      Turret direction is bugged

      I get the same thing, it\'s probably a cosmetic issue which won\'t be fixed for some time (I assume). Best way around it is to either point it the correct way just before you exit the turret, or cycle through to it from inside the ship and point it in the correct direction then. However, this...

      Challenge: Smallest 1,000,000 power/s reactor.

      Okay, so to start the ball rolling... Here\'s a 23x23x23 cube.

      Challenge: Smallest 1,000,000 power/s reactor.

      To get it to the most compact shape possible, it\'s going to have to be a cube. You should post a starting bid to challenge us highwaystar! :)

      Better projectile movement, vector math

      It should also apply to an astronaut who\'s accidentally exited their ship while travelling.

      Texture Pack – Low Res, Minecraft Style + Clean GUI

      Fantastic! I love the way the animation on the enhancers actually display that they are expanding what they\'re attached to. Also, the docks themselves.. the Turret one is circular to reflect that the turrets can swivel? And the ship dock is square reflecting that ships, once docked, don\'t...

      This is actually the most energy/sec you can get out of a 5x5x5 block that we know of currently. Test it in game with your solid block of 5x5x5 power blocks.

      Texture Pack – Low Res, Minecraft Style + Clean GUI

      I was skeptical when I read the title as surely reducing the resolution would make things worse, but I actually really like this. Very smooth, and dare I say it, sexy? The blue looks very velvety, and the textures of the AMCs, thrusters and .. power blocks? are interesting and sleek to look at...

      ship core turning

      Age? That\'s a bit harsh for making an easy mistake really. I haven\'t done it myself, but I think this is a perfect suggestion for an unfortunate mistake anyone can make, no matter their age.

      Fighting Gigantism in Starmade

      You\'re nitpicking now, and it doesn\'t help this conversation at all. The first statement was not an absolute anyway; the word \'about\' saw to that. I didn\'t mean to offend you with that question, it was because I couldn\'t understand your reasoning, I was not implying that you were thinking...

      Fighting Gigantism in Starmade

      More mass requiring more thrust is about the only correct statement in this reply. Can you explain why there would not be a difference? Also, a difference between what and what? Do you mean that if gravity isn\'t present, it doesn\'t matter how much thrust you have to counter the mass in the...

      Fighting Gigantism in Starmade

      There is still mass in zero G environments. Mass is what gives things inertia and means more force is needed to accelerate it. More massive objects will always need a larger force to accelerate them compared to smaller objects. Also, the guy you replied to first said slow missiles, not slow...

      Moph's suggestion thread (for current content issues and performance)

      With the recent addition of the public permission block, I can imagine faction members running through a ship and not closing faction doors behind them, making parts of your ship accessible to the public. This was also a problem before, however, we didn\'t actively invite the public on board...

      Best 10x10x10 Energycube layout

      Ah, I think I understand.. no, I\'m not recommending people use these 10x10x10 blocks in ships which are far larger than that; I\'d strongly recommend against it. I wasn\'t trying to compare that example of 200x100x100 with the 10x10x10, that would be ludicrous. I was trying to point out that...

      Best 10x10x10 Energycube layout

      So, let\'s say I had a ship which was 200 blocks long, 100 wide, 100 tall. I\'m going to set aside a volume of 150 blocks long, 20 wide, and 8 tall for my power blocks and I\'ll place them on the inside of the bottom part of the hull. Rather than running parallel sticks of blocks along the...

      Best 10x10x10 Energycube layout

      It was just in response to OP\'s question really. It\'s more about an efficient use of space if you\'re restricted to that size, not about getting the most out of the number of blocks you have. The highest output of power would be for all blocks to be part of a single entity, so a line, an L...

      Best 10x10x10 Energycube layout

      Thanks! If you start with a pair of interlocking 3D L shapes, so it\'s sort of like a cross, but half of the axes offset from each other, it\'s just a case of muddling it out from there really while trying to keep the longer lengths intact.
