I will check the mass of the bigger drones and let you know. They are skinned in standard armour and full of systems so they could be pretty heavy. I will let you know.

Cool idea but templates seem to have filled this gap for now. If storage pulls could be saved in the template data they would be perfect for me!

Works for me! I have two mining fleets. On MP I am using my Hyena drones and they have gathered me 90% of the resources I have in my inventory, in some cases MILLIONS of capsules! In SP I am working on some new, bigger, more powerful drones and they work fantastically! Try the Hyenas (in...

I like to explore in my stealth ship and check out other peoples stations or ships or hang around at spawn and surprise noobs when they log in or nudge ships.

I have experimented slaving the salvage computer to cannons, beams, pulses and missiles and even have a test fleet with mixed systems. Yes, the flagship never mines so no point wasting time making it a salvager unless you are flying it manually. Maybe make it into a tender to offload mined...

Strange, I have moved an entire undocked fleet due to pending pirate attack, recalled them to carrier and jumped to another asteroid field and carried on mining. I will admit, sometimes odd things happen, like an identical drone simply sitting there while the others mined, only to work...

That is a shame. After the asteroid update my 5x5x5 drones that I tested to death and served me well simply failed to work anywhere as good as before but on the current version my drones work fine and I am building some bigger ones and so far so good. Fleet mining is far from perfect at the...

I have never had any problems with mining drones off a carrier. Check out my Hyena Type C and D's in the Community Content as they work fine. If you have just a group of salvagers, I have noticed that the flagship won't mine. I don't know if this is by design or a bug but that's how it seems to...

Feel free to review my humble creations. I hope to be uploading a station and some more ships in the near future too!

I will email the admin and ask them but after a complete fresh install and two attempts I am free to get back on. I've not tried SP yet but will try tonight as I have some bits to do. Thanks for your help.

I noticed when looking through the log mention of a pirate station just at the point where the game broke. I have emailed the admin and asked him to look at it for me. I have normally had a good response from them in the past so I to this time. I agree, it is way past time the stations are...

Thanks I will try. Interesting what you say about a universe corruption as there was some odd thinks happening just before the problems really started. I will email the admin and ask if they have had any problems. They have only recently reset the server and things were going well until last night.

I too am having a weird preoblem since last night. Was playing online for a while and then endless "Null Pointer Exceptions" or "Loading Universe" hangs like above. Offline play simply hangs and I cannot get in. Online play either hangs or the game loads and I am waiting to spawn and I then...

I have finally shared something in Community Content!

I could have done with one of those some time ago. I sent my cloaking ship off as part of a fleet and accidentally deleted it from the fleet while they were in mid flight! I hunted and hunted but simply couldn't find it. Would have been so useful to have had a scanner that could have detected it!

This would be fun on a single player universe and introduce some story based gameplay somehow. On multi player the technical aspect of it simply might be prohibitive as others have said. Scanners should be able to identify undiscovered stations within range of the scanner, in fact this is what...

I'd love to see a cloakable starter ship! Especially one that can mine resources and then vanish at the first sign of trouble. I've played on servers that provide a starter ship but I tend to find that this tends to be simply a bonus collection of blocks/sellable items. I built this not only...

Thanks, I just may upload this to the community content next week.

The server I normally play on is resetting on Augist 14th so everyone is having to start afresh! To save me faffing around at spawn trying to build a ship and make the exodus from 2,2,2 and find a nice piece of space to call home I have prebuilt my starter ship that can be built from the default...

The countdown for pirate stations would be good. Hand salvage what you can carry and risk death. Derelicts are a different matter. Maybe like asteroids they could have a few "useful" blocks and the rest scrap. Maybe base the ratio of good stuff to the ratio of scrap? The more scrap you collect...
