As I was sorting through my old blueprints, I came across a ship that served me for almost 2 years, and dates back to the days when 100 as a server top speed was considered living dangerously, weapons consisted of 3 types of missiles and a single cannon, and tetras and pentas were mythical...

Overhauled engines, updated stats.

Gotta love those turrets man. They really do their job (which is to clear out any smaller vessels the main ship can't outmaneuver)

The Great Economy Update hit, now if you want to have a reasonable chance to spawn it in without admin rights, you need to go smaller.

Built for the first but fit for the later, Stats seem like it was built for the first but fit for the latter XD

Antenna being exposed isn't a bad idea, especially that some ships are already aesthetically built with huge antenna arrays. Time to put those into use, I guess? I was thinking, flying remote controlled ships could even server as a good training purpose (no one dies, no credits/blocks depending...

(1)No one would use an R/C capital anyway, because of 2 main reasons: 1. If you are on a station, you'd be only able to use that ship in your 2 sector radius. 2. If you're on another ship, you'll still need to be close to the remote controlled one or you'd risk losing it due to range - also, if...

Remote controlled AI ships pop up every now and then in discussions. They could serve as a realtively safe option for station and carrier crew to defend themselves manning fighters and turrets without risking death in those small and fragile things - to an extent. I've been giving the thing a...

I still think this should be addressed. There are even multiple ways to do it. 1. Easiest: Warp gates should not be visible on star map. Those who want their gates to be public can still share the coordinates through other means (mail, broadcast, etc.) 2. Requires some extra coding: the warp...

Naturally, all these would be controller block systems with transport speed depending on number of blocks in the system. Also with the option to add a support (cannon for constant stream instead of bursts; or Damage Beam for range) Homebase invulnerability would of course prevent the Material...

Lancake, that's music to my ears. And a great relief for me lag-ridden computer :P

I've been thinking about concepts to cover direct stransfer of items from a ship's storages to another ship or station's storage blocks. Why not make a "Material transportation beam"? Just like a salvager, this system could have storage blocks connected to it, and upon activation, it would send...

Personally, I think the game already has plenty enough decorative blocks. (I know, I know, those are easy to add, requiring no new mechanics, only textures, still, for that exact reason, calling those a new feature is a bit cheap) I do welcome, with all my heart, any work that involves stability...

The Shrike is my one and only fighter-class ship, weighing in at 100 mass (exactly 1000 blocks). Due to really dense systems arrangement and compact design, it looks smaller than its real size. Despite looking small, the Shrike can dish out quite some punishment for its size, and take more than...

Here's the newest addition to my little fleet, the Shrike starfighter (gotta build a carrier one day for these!) http://starmadedock.net/content/shrike-class-starfighter.2292/

This ship is my first from-scratch capital ship. The concept was making a ship that looks relatively good, has a full, detailed interior, packs a good punch, but does not necessarily require too many different types of complex blocks, thus can be spawned relatively easily in a survival...

Leviathan's built with intended simplicity to be an easy-to-spawn capital in a survival server. Guess what color of normal hull is the easiest to obtain from derelicts and disabled pirate stations - grey standard. I'll see what alternative colors could be possible, but I meant the Leviathan as a...

After some long debates, I finally decided to start a thread where I can reveal and share my builds, also hopefully get some constructive criticism to improve further builds. Note that my ships are primarily performance-oriented, stats come before looks. Here's the first one, familiar to those...

Changelog: - Reworked interior: access to second floor, bridge and captain's quarters in the front, at the T junction leading to the airlocks. - Added med bay - Added mess hall - Added stairway to bridge and captain's quarters - Refurbished captain's quarters - Changed swarm launcher to second...
