A faction's lore can easily be adapted to any story StarMade might have. Example: Toward the end of the 21st Century, the United Star Axis led a mass exodus from the Sol system via a prototype high velocity gravity catapult; which we destroyed with timed explosives after we left, to prevent...

That is the point that so many people are missing. Simply put; we explore what we create. Nothing more. Nothing less. It is we; the players who build most of the ships, fleets, stations, and cities seen in StarMade. This is the way it's been since Schine gave us the tools to do...

I wouldn't be against a story line. However, I personally wouldn't really put much focus on it since I have my own story line/faction lore that I incorporate into the game.

I'd have to agree with this. Some of the most fun I've ever had in multi-player involved supply runs, rescuing stranded players, showing visitors around on my planet bases and fighting spider crabs on the old derelict stations. For combat, I specifically build smaller ships so as not to...

Sorry. You guys responded before I could hit the save button.

I understand that Schine thinks the power system needs an overhaul to rebalance the game but I don't think the same thing can be said about mining. The unpleasant truth is that most people take a very lazy approach to mining due to faction arms races and the desire to operate capital ships...

Regarding edge turrets... Theoretically, this method is a good setup for that. Unfortunately, things like shield rechargers, the armor HP/resistance mechanic and passive effects make small turrets useless. Meanwhile, big turrets take a bite out of your thrust and power systems. The way...

To a degree, yes. But no more than any other home base with large craft docked. The collision check areas (bounding boxes) of ships and stations tend to increase draw on server resources when large objects or craft with a LOT of cores get really close to each other. Once docked, or...

You know what they say. A good idea is a good idea.

Hmmm... I hadn't anticipated this change. ...or did I? I guess I'll just add that to my list of reasons why most of my station/MCS designs have giant enclosed docking bays. Edit: Now that I think about it, I've been doing this for a REALLY long time... :confused: Coincidence...

How do I feel about StarMade? To be honest, I'm very concerned for the future of the game but still cautiously optimistic. Originally, I saw StarMade as one of the most revolutionary games I had ever seen. I saw it as having the potential to be every game I ever wanted; all rolled into one...

On your command ship/main carrier: You can setup a logic button for each fighter to make it launch. Mine typically consist of an Inner-ship remote that connects to an activation module. That activation module changes the rails to launch the fighter then changes the rails from...

Regarding the original post; I think we were supposedly baby steps away from what he's asking for. The problem was that explosive effect slaved to a cannon or beam only spread out in a 1m radius. If Schine fixes (if they haven't already) the radius for explosive beams and cannons, then you...

Interior shots of my 2nd Generation Mobile Command Systems. 3rd Generation...

Yeah... You'd think the smaller turrets (upper right) would be able to one-shot a small fighter but nope... A little fighter like this can actually tank the missiles! Don't even bother firing a machine gun at it or you be shooting for 5-10 minutes per fighter. Rather than let the...

Did someone call for a world builder? I find that templates are an easy way to save portions of a base. Most of my planetary bases are built from templates. Those that aren't are saved in pieces as templates for later use.

- You can actually launch different fighter groups (on different ships) using wireless logic. I was experimenting with this before the power rework was announced. With or without logic, the fleet command "carrier recall" is the only way to automatically reclaim fighters on any ship...

Yeah. It's the wireless. It's best if OP learns to use the wireless block. You can pull off all kinds of cool stuff with it including what's in the original suggestion.

She's a beauty. It bears some resemblance to a Nebulon-B frigate (Star Wars) with heavy traces of Caldari (Eve Online) styling. I especially like the scaffolding work over the central thruster stem. The extra paneling over the main armor is a nice touch. I think it would look even better...
