      Minecraft in Space?

      I feel like one of few that actually liked Minecraft... I bought it when it was indev and still played it right up to the Microsoft buyout.

      Jumping from 60+ FPs to less than 5 when loading a planet is extremly annoying

      That's odd... I'm running: Windows 7 64-bit Core i7-930 @2.8GHz (this is from 2010!) 6GB RAM Radeon HD 7850 (2GB) (2012) And I have no issues with lag like that. I run it at 1920x1200 fullscreen windowed (setting in the config file). It takes a while to load in planets, but I have no trouble...

      New storage button: Add stored blocks to filter

      OMG... Would like this. In fact, if there was a priority to this over allowing categories in the filter... I'll take this.

      Salvage Pulse Correction

      Build a salvage computer. Place all your salvage beams. Build a cannon computer, place an equal amount of cannon modules (doesn't matter where, just build a block). Hit C on your salvage computer. Hit V on your Cannon Computer.

      Why the mining "fix" is/was a bad Idea.

      It makes me wonder if you guys are playing on servers with pirate drops turned off or you just focus on mining. I don't have a problem with a mining focus, and I feel like mining has a huge disadvantage to fighting because the default pirates drop TONS of finished products (so much that you...

      why is my base not saved correctly?

      I've spawned in ships before that were missing chunks and I have the occasional undo bug now and then... but nothing to this scale.

      Travel between galaxies

      I assumed they meant admin warping from the map, which could take time to 'navigate' to a nearby galaxy.

      StarMade 0.1836 New Tutorial and loads of fixes

      What I don't understand is why, if I need a solid beam weapon, I need twice as many cannon barrels as I do beam modules. That's my gripe with the change. The ratio of making the slave system require twice as much for an effect seems wrong and counterintuitive.

      StarMade 0.1836 New Tutorial and loads of fixes

      The only reason I'm using it is for the pull effect... so... I don't care about DPS. In fact, DPS is the last thing I want.

      StarMade 0.1836 New Tutorial and loads of fixes

      So, ignoring DPS concerns, how does this impact stop/push/pull beams? I had to rework all my beams to include twice as many pull beams so I didn't cut a hole in the thing I was trying to pull... Edit: Sorry, not pull beams.. cannons on the beams...

      0.1837 / Turret problems?

      I've yet to fully test, but it appears as though some of my missile turrets on my faction home station have fallen asleep. I verified that the AI is turret/active and now that I'm actually getting pirates the turrets decide to just chill out and stare at the floor. They don't seem to track...

      Unable to manufacture Cannon Computer...

      In case anyone else comes across this thread... Make sure you have power attached to the same structure that the factory is on and/or use your power gun you start the game with. It will show the progress bar even if there is no power. There was/is a small red error that pops up if there is no...

      Core overheat leaves ship intact

      I'd love to see some AI settings for tractor beams to pull in derelict ships as well... I've made a few tests to pull in pirates attacking my home base to scrap them and I have to wait until they get sucked in before killing them or the AI ignores the scrap.

      Unify block shapes

      No... Let's say you need to build a wall. This will be a 10x10 wall. The most efficient way to build that wall would be to take a stack of 100 cubes and stack them up. If you allow breaking that cube in to wedges you double the amount of wall you can build by accepting that one side of the...

      How to outfit fighters?

      Shotgun right now are janky. They don't properly randomize so your shots will always go out in the same vectors. You can see this best with beams.

      import a space station?

      You build it again or get the help of an admin. I just re-read this... you are trying to copy a station on a server for personal use? If so, you need to get in the station (weapon computer/build block/etc.) and open inventory. Go to Catalog, and there's an option to save local (not at home...

      Help with Setting Up Dedicated Server

      I run my game server on a Debian Linux box, so I can't tell you much about windows configs but I did run a dedicated on my Windows box a few times without this problem. What processor does the machine have? (I have an early Core i7 with 6GB RAM that I used and didn't notice any performance...
