Obfuscation is going through (or having a program go through) and scramble the release version of your code's variables, method names, class names, comments, etc. so that it's hard to figure out what it does. The code itself remains functionally the same. AFAIK everything's name in the code...

I don't exactly have experience with them, but isn't a D100 just a ball with golf-ball-like divots? You can technically make something similar with sufficient size, but unless it's immense and spans multiple sectors (which would cause a lot of bugs and/or programming challenges...) there would...

With every passing day, the Ajir-class Heavy Destroyer approaches completion... Application declined.

If you're flying what I think you're flying, the solution is to take apart what's left and build something better...

Diamond planets are not made solely of diamonds; they have surfaces made of carbon stuff and there might be diamonds scattered around. The planet would be mostly black, if I'm correct, but since this is a game the planets could have crystal spikes sticking out of the ground.

Warheads, because useless. They don't do enough damage to be of any real worth. Shipyard build function. Would be awesome, until you realize that it's bugged and your turrets and docked entities are liable to randomly disappear. That bug has been at "release blocker" priority for several...

Some use weapons. Salvage cannons. I've put effect modules in there before. People that do that kind of thing would get pretty badly screwed over.

At that scale, yes. Scale them up to 5km across and implement a (high) build ceiling and a non-block mantle/core layer for sanity's sake, and it doesn't look so bad any more. If you want a space elevator just use a docked entity.

Councilbump. It's about time I get a fancy-schmancy tag on this thing. :P

The stuff added to the game falls basically into two categories: Features that need to be added for later integration into competitive gameplay, and creative things that were either necessary (copy/paste/save/load templates) or could just be thrown in with minimal Schema time involved...

Terok Nor has been built several times, but I don't think anyone has put it near a wormhole yet :p I'm more interested in Galor-class ships. They've only been attempted twice, as far as I know, and both times (no offense to the builders) it... wasn't perfect.

And if you want uses for beige... It makes for a great stand-in for bronze! It's perfect for awesome Cardassian spaceships! ...And more! Get yours today for the low price of just 24 block IDs plus spaceshipping and handling. Call right now at 1800-33-BEIGE or visit www.beigehull.com to order!

Dark red, beige, dark green, and dark blue would complete the color palette, but Kupu doesn't seem to want to do dark versions of existing colors. Too bad... Beige hull is still a possibility though it seems

Again - no, use a new block. That will still break all existing designs. Not everybody uses thrusters or shield caps for a filler block, y'know.

No, but somebody was asking how to deal with safely scaling the game up to 2000-radius default planets. There's your solution :p

In any case, Skylord, isn't it a bit above the Council's pay grade to go rejecting things anyway? I mean, if it has been expressly rejected by a dev in the past, then quote them and reject it. Otherwise I'd just say leave it alone. But then I don't make the rules either :P

Beige glass? Is there really any need for beige glass? If anything we can just lighten the brown crystal armor a little bit; I don't think anyone will care too much as a lighter color would still get the same idea across.

Fullblock 1/4 1/2 3/4 Corner Hepta Tetra Wedge No light, no lightrod? It works out to 24-26 more IDs being used. Seems worth it, to me. No. Brown is good as it is, and it's its own thing. If we wanted brown changed we'd ask for brown to be changed, but it has its own uses so no.

Rejected - Tan/beige/peach blocks What exactly happened here? Seems like a perfectly reasonable suggestion; even if it's not being added immediately I can't think of any justification for an outright rejection.

I see no reason why not. kupu if it was you don't reject things like that without providing a reason; if it was a council member or something... well, same thing.
