      Which is better for drones? Size or quantity?

      Yeah that's what I was thinking.

      Which is better for drones? Size or quantity?

      I am using logic and drone racks. The logic will move them out of the ship to be launched. I can either have 48 fighters with a max (unlikely to use all the space given) 30 L 20 H 16 W or 16 fighters with 50 L 20 H 30 W So as bricks of modules, those would be quite effective, but since looks...

      Which is better for drones? Size or quantity?

      I am making a carrier, and I haven't ever finished one before, but this time I have. I have a large space inside my ship which I'm going to fill with AI Drones, but I'm not sure which would be better: 48 ships that are smaller, and less powerful, or 16 ships with better capabilities? I feel like...

      Bug StarMade server closes, exe continues running upon launch

      Figured I would stop by here again and state that the only way I have found to fix this is to freshly install the game, and you can't rescue any unsaved ships from the server that died. My power went out today and this same issue happened again. It seems that the galaxy file gets corrupted if my...

      Blocks not visible at certain distances

      Just bumping this post since it's been nearly 10 days. Not being able to see planets/players at a distance is quite an issue especially in PVP.

      Blocks not visible at certain distances

      Alright, my problem arose after the new textures and before January i'd say. I haven't been playing frequently until now and figured it'd be fixed pretty quick, but it hasn't been so I'm making a post about it. Basically my issue is that as I'm flying away from ships, or planets, or anything...

      Poll: How do you start your ships?

      I was curious, how do you, the average starmade citizen start building a ship? The options are a few I could think of, and a few I have used. There are some beautiful ships, and some not-so beautiful ships, and I would like to know if there is a pattern of results coming from one of these...

      Bug StarMade server closes, exe continues running upon launch

      So a few hours ago I was playing on my local server, with one friend, and then suddenly I bluescreened (happens on my PC frequently with no fix). Anyway, when I restarted my PC, the StarMade server wouldn't stay open. It opens, "minimizes" and then all I can do is close it in task manager. The...

      star wars shipyard by El_Poulpy

      I have to ask: How long did it take you to make that Venator? After looking at a bunch of oddly shapen Venators I decided to take a crack at it myself, but eventually stopped working on it. Downloading your Venator and looking at it has made me decide not to finish mine lol. I must say, very...

      New shield values?

      Yeah, I have 1,200 weapon blocks in 2 groups, and 1,000 shield blocks. I get 300,000 shields, but only do 1,920DPS per gun. This just means combat will be excessively drawn out, and if you miss or stop firing for 2 seconds, the enemy has all their shields back. They really should've left out...

      AI Turret random laser deviation

      That's a good idea, but an entire new system would have to be made to scale accuracy to the amount of AMCs.

      AI Turret random laser deviation

      This is a good point, but would you rather have cool factor or something that works?

      AI Turret random laser deviation

      Try making a AMC that fires really fast, and spawn an enemy version of it. You'll notice it doesn't shoot in a straight line, it sprays everywhere.

      New shield values?

      Just tested it, math is right. 10x10x10 of shields = 495,000 shields. And if you all remember your long sessions of shield placing to get up to a million+, you'll recall it wasn't just that easy.

      New shield values?

      Yeah my ship isn't a billion shields, confusingly enough it was a different number of shields last night. I didn't update or change my ship. It had 1,699,000,000 shields, and now it has 178,797,465.
    17. Cody38

      New shield values?

      Yes, previously you could hit a threshold where each block was giving you one shield points (or some other low value like 50) so if you placed a 10x10x10 block (1,000 blocks) you would only get 1,000 shields. But now, that threshold seems to be gone, so placing a 10x10x10 now would be around...

      New shield values?

      No it most definitely is a billion shields. I have a theory that mass has something to do with shields, as my friend's ship with 1.8mil shields was only boosted to 700Mil shields (his mass was around 100,000) and my ship with 200,000 blocks is at 1.7bill shields. But remember what I said, shield...

      New shield values?

      Previous to this patch, shield blocks didn't have a flat value. For instance (Not actual numbers) The first shield block would be 2,000 shields, the next would be 700. And then every block after that would be 1 shield point less, so eventually every shield block could end up being worth 1-2...

      AI Turret random laser deviation

      So long ago, when AI were controlling turrets they would have random inaccuracy for balancing purpose I suppose, but this year that was removed and it saw a major increase in the usefulness of turrets and AI fighters. AI could manage to hit moving targets and other fighters, but as of...
