I'm one of those people. Use your radar. ;) That's a bug. Nope. Yep.

Sure, but it'd still be nice to have this block. It would allow for much better detailing in a lot of places.

I normally start with a good idea of what I want the ship to look like, and then make the interior and the power grids work together, then do other systems and exterior. I usually have really strong power grids proportional to the size of ships I build.

I think you're focusing too much on RP if your ships are that bad. It's possible to strike a good balance, with aesthetics taking up a lot less mass than you'd expect.

The odd thing is, @kupu was taking exception to me making about three planet-related threads, as well as participating in other discussions about planets. I still don't know why. The threads were all distinctly different suggestions, made on different days (weeks?) and not even related to each...

It appears that there is some disagreement among the community, including @kupu as to what the purpose of a new thread actually is. Is it for a different topic, a different category, separation of related but dissimilar information for the sake of organization, or what? I've included a poll.

The O.P. has been completely rewritten as people were reading it incorrectly. Please read the clarified O.P. before posting anything else.

I enjoy dodecahedrons. I just wish the edges were smooth. I'd enjoy spheres, but I'd still wish the blocks weren't all weird. All I'm saying is that it would be a fun option. I am not saying by any means that this should be the default setting. It should be hidden away in the config for...

"Old" yourself. LOL I don't know why the disagree button was taken out. It makes no sense. Why not just rename it "I politely disagree"? :P

http://oldsite.star-made.org/content/starmade-dev-update-why-spherical-planets-dont-fit-block-world Schema mentioned that he might add this as a gimmick someday. I it should be done at some point if it's easy to throw in as a config option. If not, I think the test build should be published...

What I think is most likely to happen is that dodecahedrons will be refined, or that they will be made into a different shape that still uses segments or plates. I can think of at least one possibility for that. The biggest issue is the edges, as almost everyone will probably agree. They are...

*presses disagree button*

Okay, after thinking it through, here are my two cents worth. Explosions: -A ship should rarely if ever go "kablooey" and just vaporize. I really like the idea of all systems having computers and disabling ships leaving them dead in the water. That's a far more realistic solution. - If one...

AAAAAH!!! Brilliant! If certain systems would explode after a percentage of that type of block is blown off, it could cause a chain reaction blowing the whole ship apart. It would be far more realistic than the current system (although still not very realistic, just more convincing). 1. 50%...

I'd like climbable scaffolding that can be used both for decoration and as a ladder. There are a lot of places in ships I build where ladders are necessary, but do not exist so I have to build a rather awkward and inconvenient sideways grav tube to solve the problem.

Rendering isn't a bottleneck. Yeah, and Eiffel tower was built by my crazy uncle who went back in time. Rendering is the number one issue on most people's computers. Most players do not have access to Milky Way 2 to play Starmade on.

This does not solve the problem the OP addressed. You cannot make a one-block-wide letter if one pixel = 1 block.

I think this whole idea was recently added to the queue of features to add to the game.

Did you have Lion at the time the issue started? Interestingly, this didn't happen when I first started playing starmade. It started happening sometime before the weapon update.

http://bugs.star-made.org/issues/33 The whole story is there. Macs with Intel graphics cards crash every time any kind of beam is fired in sight of the player, thus the Draw Beams option must be disabled in graphics settings. This is a known issue that has been around for months without any...
