      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      (1+2) so why did they build in the ability to target the parent ship? (3) they could have just built it into only transfer 90% they didn't (4) As you know with rail systems your ship can fit in any area it doesn't collide with another object. Collision boxes are usually just boxes not the shape...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      Your misunderstanding my intent. I think you and I can agree the development team isn't stupid and the game has a lot of potential. So they wouldn't be the type of people to hand a crack addict $20 and not expect that person to go out and buy drugs. Not just once but they repeat the behavior...

      You could learn from Notch

      Fair assessment to a point. But how much easier is it for a person who builds automatic farms to get arrows, make potions, food, and so on that effect combat or even simply getting further in the game? How fast can someone hit you with 3 splash potions of harming 2? My point is there was a...

      Hope that is a little clearer now.

      You could learn from Notch

      You know what that would be a good learning process for them. Please talk to MS about selling the game. Expect to provide them a list of records showing issues in the game the time spent adding new content vs resolving those issues. They will want to see the manor in which you dealt with issues...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      A big armor bar essentially means if you go past a point you start taking even more damage so its just another penalty. Lets play a game count the penalties. power transfer beam - penalty. Shield transfer beam - penalty. Power over 2 million penalty. Weapons multiple groups penalty. Big armor -...

      You could learn from Notch

      I can't count the number of times stuff was made in minecraft no one ever expected. Did Notch get upset and try to nerf it. In most cases no. Very little nerfing was done simply because someone made use of something. Was it originally intended for people to build computers in the game or play...

      Fine you brought up Schema's reply. How about this line? Clear Segmentation of data: A chunk is a clear part of memory. That makes for a lot faster access because you can reference it with static indices in an array. You can make assumptions to it's size and apply several data structures to...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      Unless you have a sole target some of those cannons will target other stuff unless you are using fire at my target. Then add to that the larger cannon will actually keep shields down more and gets added penetration damage meaning the ships SHP drops faster thus the fight ends faster. Then there...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      No you can do the same thing any more. Before power transferred up stream was storable and accumulative. This meant if you chained 20 1.5Me Power-supplies you you got 30Me power generation. Now you will only get 1.5Me no matter how many you chain they are not accumulative nor are they storable...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      So started building a base. I realized stuff wasn't working right. So I started testing. Here is what I found you killed all upstream power transfer. So you can't recharge a ship by docking, you can't charge even caps in a turret none of it. So 99% of anything made in the past is scrap. Why did...

      Starmade just got 0wned...

      No kidding just seen this yesterday. If it has a minimal amount of bugs I'll be playing it over this. -- I found out it uses unity as a game engine. Won't play it at all.

      Allow Astronaut Roll

      Actually. There is a max angle of 180 up down rotation. Probably because they are using matrices vs using quaternions. So at least for me pretty easy to determine. In short if you don't know pull strait down on your mouse where it stops is the direction your feet are facing.

      Allow Astronaut Roll

      I'll be honest I can care less it isn't going to make anything easier one way or another. Generally you can align to the object you are in the influence of by hitting space. I don't fly with an astronaut to take picture or anything I simply use a core or another ship. In short if they do it and...

      A vision of what could be

      Actually, no because big ships wouldn't be able to do everything under what I was saying. You would make a ship to a certain size to fill a certain role. In short you would bring in the kind of fire power to match the fire power of what you are going against. rather than run the risk of loosing...

      The Station Alternative to overheating: MELTDOWN

      Not trying to be rude. I am kind of missing your point on this one. We have 3D printers far better than most people even know about. We actually have collected particles using a laser beam. Used for upper atmospheric sampling. It was done at LLNL. Ferro Fluids and shear thickening fluids both...

      A vision of what could be

      If you look at my suggestion on turning allowing turning shields off an follow it. There is a real reason cloaking would be less effective on a large ship. Light refraction around a large object is greater and thus harder to put a beam back together to make a perfect image. In short while a...

      The Station Alternative to overheating: MELTDOWN

      Yep, it would be excessive and thus wreck the game. Not being able to do damage control on a ship escapes all logic and also doesn't help the game. While some science fiction can be a bonus to a game going to far with anything or simply having something because you don't have a better idea...
