      How to free your sector from faction ships ramming all your stuff?

      Just destroy the faction's claim station... I think?

      StarMade v0.199.349 - NPC Faction Update

      While I personally don't see a huge issue with docked power specifically, from experience issues like that don't get handled until years down the line when the players bothered by them have already quit.

      Criss' Thread

      Question... Criss/Saber, where exactly did you get the idea that Scavengers shouldn't have turrets? I can understand for the small ships, but for things cruiser-sized and above, if anything the Scavengers should have the biggest turrets of them all... (think a single gigantic swivelling gun on...

      Diggy diggy... ooh, Fertikeen!

      So, after avoiding it for the longest time (assuming that it was annoying and not any good) I heard The Yogscast's Diggy Diggy Hole for the first time today. And I decided to put my own twist on it. Miners of the sky rejoice! (Fly, fly, fly with me) Fly by and hear that "that ship's noice!"...

      Armor Revamp: Focus on Armor HP over Block Destruction

      You would effectively end up with nigh-impenetrable but incredibly dense and heavy armour, which kinda balances itself. Alternatively, open door-type blocks could just not contribute to AHP... Regardless, I don't particularly like this suggestion. Armor with AHP should feel tougher, perhaps...

      Jump Drives and... Stars?: A proposal to expand the effective size of the universe.

      Capital ship warp drives are already planned, and it'd be a good idea if they could warp entire fleets... This is getting off topic, but I thought it would be better if capital ships used a similar system to the jumps. I envision two modes of capital ship FTL interaction: Jump field Generators...

      The Double-Edged "Forge"

      A system like this is planned, but it will come in the form of crew skill or something like that, not arbitrary buffs via shipyards.

      Dev Blog : December 6th

      Yes, but the point is that it's not "sort of" a feature; it's just not a thing yet.

      Um, no? The broken feature lets you fly somewhere with your fleet and then have them mine in the sector you're in. It does not allow you to send out fleets to unloaded space and mine stuff.

      Jump Drives and... Stars?: A proposal to expand the effective size of the universe.

      The primary issue I have with this is that it mitigates the usefulness of Jump Field Generators, which I intended to have as one way to #MakeStationsGreatAgain... unless, of course, charging up a jump drive out of star/jump field range would take impractically long, but then Panpiper's issue...

      Jump Drives and... Stars?: A proposal to expand the effective size of the universe.

      Meh. This would be awesome from afar, but for the fighter pilot it means a sudden death with no chance to escape or even see what happened to them.

      Jump Drives and... Stars?: A proposal to expand the effective size of the universe.

      The alleged 'problem' in this case is not loading range; it's physics. The highest level of physics calculations in this game happen when two entities are in the same sector, presumably followed by when two entities' bounding boxes intersect, so a lot of entities in one sector means a lot of...

      Jump Drives and... Stars?: A proposal to expand the effective size of the universe.

      From talking to some of the devs, it seems that they're keeping the sectors really small for fear of people packing too many entities in one sector... Which seems like an irrational fear to me, as sectors are already big enough that people can pack in tons of huge things if they want. Scaling...
