Several suggestions have cropped up about "viewing screens" that link to a camera or something and render an outside view on the surface of blocks. I think I've finally thought up a way to do this without absolutely murdering players' frame rate. Well, this is a little difficult to describe so...

One way to do this is to add a simple marker to show you where to shoot, taking into account the speed of the selected weapon, your velocity, and the enemy's velocity. I think this is what the OP was suggesting, and honestly it would probably work the best.

The ENTIRE POINT of this suggestion is being able to be picked up and moved. Without that, it just becomes a really nerfed and annoying version of this: http://starmadedock.net/threads/save-player-relative-to-ship-upon-logout.1804/

That would be interesting. I like this idea. Shields need to protect against collision damage, period. Otherwise few people will play with it turned on. If they can't deal with kinetic energy how the heck do they stop cannon projectiles? Seriously!

It has been confirmed that players in the future will be able to log out and log back in to the same place in the same ship regardless of the ship moving. I had another idea that might be interesting: statsis tubes. When you freeze yourself, you'll get a menu similar to the one when you first...

Go away.

I may become mildly frustrated if this doesn't get a "Planned" tag.

I would suggest that you show some discretion with the use of explosions in cases like this. They're cool if volatile system blocks, especially power/shield capacitors (sooooo much energy in there!) get destroyed, but if a few blocks of hull and a few cannon barrels get slammed, an explosion...

That sounds pretty good to me. Cooking sounds interesting. I'd like to have a decent galley onboard my ship.

The only reason I can think of that you wouldn't like a hunger system is that getting food isn't fun, or that it distracts you from things you'd rather be doing and offers no benefit. A good hunger system should: 1) Licit interesting resource production 2) Allow you to meet your basic needs with...

I had a similar idea to deal with excessively large edits in build mode. With a queue, the amount of processing power build mode is allowed to use can be controlled. Then there won't be any real need to limit the selection/copy/paste size. As for blueprints, I think when shipyards are fully...

Thanks, Captain Obvious. :D But yes, these are features that must necessarily be included in the final game for it to be much good.

You're not the first to suggest this, nor will you be the last. On another note, why do people rip on Minecraft's food system? I've heard very few people who actually play the game complain about it unless they just don't know how to play the game and survive. Please recognize that people have...

The build helpers are kind of broken, too. They're asymmetrical and messed up much of the time.

So are you saying this will be a full-on moving parts system rather than just a multipurpose monorail track? The more I hear about this the more interested I become.

http://phys.org/news/2015-02-earth-moon-crazy-orbit-reveal.html Interesting how things in space do funny stuff like that.

Yep. Hopefully when breakoff works right, the segments can be broken up as the planet explodes.

Yeah, whatever shape this takes, it should allow for self-sufficient ships with mass and size drawbacks.

This guy is offering many music tracks to Starmade free of charge. Just listen to this! It's great.

Yeah, but that's not really the purpose of this thread. It's more to get people thinking. If you want to make a suggestion thread for fuel and link this thread, that'd be a good place for a poll.
