      Build Helper Symmetry help?

      Finally working on something large and using the Build Helpers pane to create large scale structure (circular arcs, namely). So there's this interesting feature called Restrict Building to Helper that acts as a mask so only blocks are placed within the helper zone. And Symmetry can be used a...

      Planetary Vehicles

      We know the Universe update is coming, and with it will be improvements to planets, hopefully making them larger and more complex. If planets change (especially if they become larger), then we may need better tools for manipulating their structure. I propose a new basic element called a...

      How do I prevent a StarMade version update?

      How do I lock StarMade to a specific version and prevent it from automatically updating to a new release? There is supposed to be infrastructure in Steam to do this, but either it isn't working correctly, it doesn't exist, or I have it setup wrong. I have tried to set my version to Release...

      Pink Crystal Armor cannot be placed?

      So, I have discovered that I cannot place Pink Crystal Armor. I can place all other blocks (though I have not exhaustively tried to place them all), but I can't place this one. Anywhere. I can't place it singularly or with a larger brush. I can place other types of crystal armor, but not...

      Advanced Build Mode tools tutorial?

      New to this game (just started with v0.200.335), find it very compelling, but having some difficulties with build mode. It is clear to me that in order to create larger and more complex structures, I need to master the advanced build mode tools, but I feel like a child grasping in the dark. I...
