      Looking for ideas

      - Janitor's closet - A complimentary gas station? - A starship wash - If you're going restaurant style, don't forget the secret mafia hideout upstairs.

      Brainstorm This Astronaut Mode gameplay.

      Here's my problem with astronaut gameplay: My character moves like a brick! When I press "w," I instantly move forward at max speed. When I let go of "w," I instantly stop. Instantly. When I jump, I come down at exactly the same speed that I came up. When I press shift, I go slower. When I...

      A quick little idea for how to implement missions

      Perhaps these NPC's could reside within the current Trading Guild stations? They're rather empty now. There could be a designated place for them, especially when more "fluff" NPC's are added to fill up stations. Perhaps: Commanders on the bridge give pirate cleaning bounties. Freight ship...

      Read by Council Galactic Map - Exploration

      Well I'm still against wormhole traps, but it might be interesting if you had to explore wormholes before knowing their paths. And what if - when you reenter space after going through a wormhole, your star map is completely blank, and you have to explore and buy maps to fill it up again just...

      Read by Council Galactic Map - Exploration

      Wormholes should never be purely traps. That's cheap. If they were never meant to be explored, then they shouldn't transport you anywhere.

      Read by Council Liquid Nebula

      Because it's supposed to be a nebula, I think it should span an entire system. I don't think this would reduce the fun or tactical advantages of them at all. I suppose your reasoning is that in a combat situation, it would be tougher for the evading ship to maneuver away from an enemy, but I...

      Or something less weird, like an NPC bounty system.

      Read by Council Let the robots grind I want to fight.

      Maybe Starmade should have some "default" blueprints you can buy for stuff like auto-miners, turrets, astronaut gravity cannons, etc. Just so that new players don't have to figure it out all on their own.

      Recognized Job/Bounty boards?

      A Job Board could be fun in single player too. What if NPC bounty requests appeared on it, detailing reward, the type of ship, (displaying a miniature display of the ship?) whether it's wanted captured or destroyed, and the coordinates it is at. The ship would spawn when a player gets within...

      Recognized User Programmable AI, via a grid system

      Perhaps for players who don't want to use this system, the BobbyAI could remain as it is, and a new AI block can be added, called the "ProgrammableAI" or something.

      Planned Better Solar Systems (More Cool Stuff!)

      How are purely aesthetic things redundant? They serve the function of making the universe less boring to explore and look at, something I support regardless of it's gameplay function. Having said that, planetary rings could be destructible for ore. After all - the rest of the planet is already...

      Ship Navigation Icon Changes

      Are you suggesting that boarders don't get the astronaut icon? Or that astronauts in ships shouldn't get icons? You aren't really being clear. Perhaps there could be some kind of handheld scanner that detects the ship's core. if you're close enough, or tapping into another computer on the ship...

      StarMade v0.19282: Putting more fun into battles. Also, boarding!

      Are you looking for multiple composers, or only one? Because I can do orchestral stuff, but ambiance and electronic isn't my strong point now.

      Kupu's thread

      I really liked the idea of ships getting yellow-hot when I shot them. Like I was melting the hull right off their ships. Though somehow it didn't look quite right, like the hulls were just painted yellow instead of actually being hot. Maybe it just needed a bloom effect? What if the old damage...

      Thoughts on Gigantism

      Eh, I rather like the idea that space-fighters are much bigger than atmosphere-fighters. ...to fit all that space equipment... or something. That's all I got.

      Ship Cores - The final detonation

      If ship cores will actually explode in the future, then a Metroid-esque countdown timer should display on the screen when you're close to/in a ship. It would make things more exciting for boarders if that ever becomes a normal part of gameplay. That's a ridiculous self destruct explosion. Look...
