      Weird Transparenz

      I played around with transparency settings in the blockconfig and transparent blocks. For test purposes, I made "Glass (Plextanium)" half completely transparent, half with a white fog in the textures and set it to non-transparent in blockconfig. Then, I made a dark room (black hulls on one...

      An Idea for Turning Speed

      Me: We need fighters to be faster. You: But bigger ships have more efficient engines!!! Me: True, but it if you have 2 ships - one big and one small - you can afford better fuel for your small one (buff first 3..x thrusters?). Me: In Star-Trek some small ship traveled cloaked inside a bigger...

      Starmade Texture Pack

      imgur doesn\'t like png-files. click the pic for a 512x512 (each) download. (This preview is the old version, new has 4x6 images (for animations, 1 block and rotate 90deg for a 6-sided block differently colored) You have to resize and put it manually into the right position of your files - I...

      Different coloured Crystals? Pointless!

      although i find it easier to do it manually via the starmade\\data\\config\\BlockConfig.xml file. Yes, I even thought about making a bulk editor :) Search&replace a property in all \"hull\" with/not \"hardened\" + 1/2 hp/cost for wedges, etc. But I think I will wait until the next release...

      An Idea for Turning Speed

      If there is no thrust, a ship can\'t turn in space. Wrong! Imagine 2 weels in a formation which look like the number 8. what happens if you turn them both clockwise? EVEN 1 weel will cause a temporary motion to turn your ship around.

      Power AMC balance

      Since when? I think now I dock ships with bobbies and amcs to attack selected target... \"Give them a full broadside bobby!\" :) I think there is (currently) no point in shielding your amcs more than with a couple (1/10) of blocks. Basic hulls have just a little bit more hp, amcs lag-die...

      Lights. Lights. Pink lights, rimless lights.. so on and so forth

      Hive mind :) It would be a lot easier if there were not 130 pages of posts and all peoples would help - everybody takes one category. But we should clean up some doubles (which are link-post-linked to others) or already implemented things first.

      Unclutter the inventory <-- everything that fits into this thread!

      We talk not about painting ships while not in buid mode. We talk about which block is allowed to be set in which quantity and what do you require for it. How can you then edit blocks while you are in your space suit? :p

      Graphical size comparison

      This might be adjustable in the server files, though. No, but a good idea

      Unclutter the inventory <-- everything that fits into this thread!

      Currently Wedges and Hulls (as all others) have the same texture. Their block type is different - type0=block, type1=wedge, type2=corner, type4=tetra, type5=penta (or similar) I think they would not need extra memory with the best implemention. But currently, they are handled like...

      Combined mechanics idea for max speed, asteroids, collision damage and ship spinning

      I like physical deflectors, but they should reduce your speed a bit if they project force onto another object. (( Maybe it could decrease your max speed and drain power (just like shields recharging), so it would be a second shield type (vs slow things) )). Because they could reduce lag of...

      Unclutter the inventory <-- everything that fits into this thread!

      #1: Separate function (hull, advanced) and color. Think of deko plates on top of your hull. #2: Merge Blocks/wedges/corners/penta/tetra. Currently you can't fit all your blocks - not even just hull without plex and custom server blocks - in your inventory + hotbar. Details for 1 and 2...

      Different coloured Crystals? Pointless!

      I like ice crystals. If you have factions (Earth peoples vs Mars peoples) or like in Warhammer40k or just Aliens instead of Pirates or peoples who like it more rebelish, it is good for the game. But I still think there should be something done to un-clutter the inventory - and the shop btw.

      Suggestions from the Calbiri chat

      +1, Support Now all of these three ideas 2: I thought you mean having a computer emit light and plex lights enhance the radius. But this computer should then be able to toggle not only plex-lights but also Plex-doors, etc. Every activateable thing.

      Countering Collision Damage

      Add rubber, but please let it just increase the minimum speed for taking damage. But I think it is stupid to have items which were down. Except you have some auto-repair for them while standing still or not colliding.

      Ice flat planet ship

      It would be nice to have oreo-planets with different types of terrain. One extreme at one side, the other extreme at the other (desert vs vulcans) (flat ice vs icy mountains with little green on bottom) (ice vs desert), etc.

      Suggestion/question

      IMBA = Imbalanced Master-slave is something like this: AMC = Cannon Slave-AMC = Stronger, higher reload time. Basically to get 25 different setups with just 5 different block types (less clutter in the shop) and less computers too.

      Rename shops to: Shop alpha, beta, gamma, etc

      I don\'t think there are enough letters in the greek alphabet I think enough for one sector - or 9 if they are not all clumped together. Or we could just add an last-visited timer (client-side, for last 10-100 shops?) I think it will come hand-in-hand together with something like this...

      Texture Pack,

      Limited to 4 frames of animation on such a small tile Is it possible to combine different block sides and animations? +1. I don\'t like the BB/core/FM animations. I like how amcs and missiles are designed. Animations just need to be limited (less overall-color changing) per block, or with...
