No landing gear, but I'm just happy that this is now a possibility in Star Made. (thanks rails and flip-flop)

Now that would be pretty interesting. Like a tiny inconspicuous sprite or block that acts as a homing beacon when placed on a ship that lets you track an enemy if by some chance you could actually get close enough to their ships to plant it in the first place.

On top of what CyberTao said, if we did get a feature like that, it would be very easy to bypass and just have a faction VOIP over an out of game application for players coordinating attacks or whatever.

I've been playing around with the rails for a while now (loving them and the new textures today) but I've got a question or two. How are ships going to or will ships share their systems among each other? For instance, if you want the entire ship to move around a cockpit module on rails, you...

My wording was a little ambiguous I guess, but the intention is for the battery recharge to occur only when the ship with the batteries is the entity being docked, not when the entity with the battery has entities with reactors docked to it. I think that the game can distinguish between the two...

Thread title says it all. The idea is an alternative to power reactors and mostly to help small craft gain an edge with an alternative weakness to it. Battery cell specs: Cannot be used in conjunction with a power reactor on a single entity. (Lore-wise, let's just say the two technologies are...

I for one love the Scimitar Assault Bomber.

Holy crap, and here I thought the TIE Interdictor I was working on had enough dakka. I need to make this, or at least the shell right, right now! Edit: wait, you sure this is legit? Those extra ordnance pods look kind of like they're shopped onto a TIE Interdictor miniature.

Nah they're definitely not. Check out the burning TIE on the OP. The engines and the rear end are totally different from the traditional TIE. I wouldn't be surprised though if we see the old school TIEs used by the new Imps though. Oh yeah, speaking of the new Imps, apparently these guys are...

If that is a SSD they'll just say that Executor wasn't the only one the empire had or that they built more after it. The EU had a bunch of Executor-Classes anyway so it wouldn't come as a surprise to me if the new movie canon decided to take the same explanation as Legends where "Imperial Black...

I had this problem also, you just have to wait. It took as much as a couple of hours when I recently changed my avatar.

And Pink. Don't forget Pink.

Ironic, the Schine Engine can't make a shiny surface that reflects light correctly over many blocks. I'm actually kind of sad about this. The thought of tacky gold ships cruising the galaxy is kind of hilarious to me. Gold trim could have been a tasteful application for luxury ships as well.

Thing is though, from a relative standpoint ships with an interior are gaining an advantage from traditionally built ships with single layer hulls while the old method is gaining nothing. So now we'll hopefully end up with ships that have an interior ideally (and I stress ideally very strongly)...

Somebody needs to do SDF-1 Macross or some other fully transforming ship.

Way I see it as an aesthetic builder, you can't have it both ways. Look at military vehicles in real life for example, they're crowded as hell with little in the way of interior (tanks and submarines especially) because it is non-essential. The best you can do is compromise and make...

You can't really avoid those situations in a large scale environment nowadays, something we are very far from. There will always be some server that is run by someone doing it for the love of the game though, they just may not be as big as the most popular but they are bound to be around. The...

They're either small enough that the owner can pay out of the pocket, or they take donations. I've seen servers in other games that just have their own forums and get some dosh from adsense or whatever. To do the latter right, don't pester your users about adblock since that's not only a dick...

Absolutely OP. Above all, vote for someone who represents what parts of the game that you like well, and are focused on the game and THIS community, not with their interests elsewhere on other sites.

Just got a massive boner from watching that. Also props for recognizing the gloriousness of Metroid Prime elevators and lifts. Maybe in the future rails will also get SFX and we'll be able to mod the lift noise in too. Anyway, I think we really will need that LUA scripting or some kind of...
