You still didn't explain why you aren't using a station

I think you should just use a station with a faction module and achieve exactly the same thing. Asteroids can be pushed around anyway (depending on settings), so even if you had a shielded asteroid, someone could steal it by pushing it.

http://bugs.star-made.org/issues/2113 For now you'll need to use it on ANY mode.

Hey xXGrizzlyXx , I took a rather long break from it, so it is mostly still just a shell. Now that rails have arrived, I've started working on including them. The turrets are looking pretty good IMO. I probably should have not been so ambitious at the start though, 750m long ships take a...

Great thread, I played around with the values a bit. My next jumping ship should be much better :D

The admin command /spawn_creature may help you, assuming that it hasn't been changed to spawn those spider things instead. I don't remember if you can hire them though. http://starmadedock.net/threads/admin-commands.1283/

It's a pretty hard thing to balance. In multiplayer, the 28 pirate stations will be destroyed by the players in no time, leaving the system boring. In singleplayer, it is excessive. I think it is set up for multiplayer servers by default at the moment.

Surely you've been around long enough to figure out a solution :p

What about occlusion culling? Also play with the 5 options about textures at the bottom of the advanced settings.

Did you try turning off occlusion culling and/or VBO bulk mode? (second page of launcher, settings menu, show advanced) Not sure if it will help, just a suggestion.

As far as spawning inside your ship goes, I find that leaving 3 blocks of space above the core gives the best results.

Have you got the 64 bit version of Java? If you have a 64 bit computer (I would guess you do), you should get it. The website only downloads the 32 bit version automatically.

Two things for both of you: 1. At what point do you get the JVM crash? What is the last thing you see before it? 2. Have you tried running the game at absolute lowest settings? http://starmadedock.net/threads/people-with-slow-computers.2216/ (just the launcher bit for now)

Hello everyone, I've been working on making a 50% scale (750m long) Earth Alliance Nova class dreadnought, which is from Babylon 5. It isn't seen often in the shows as it is an older design, and has been replaced by the Omega, however the Omega has a rotating section, which we can't make in...

4 GB is enough actually, provided you don't have way too many background programs/windows open or want to build ten million block ships. Download 64 bit java (if you haven't got it already), and increase the memory settings on the first screen of the launcher.

So you need to set it each time you use your computer? Do the settings get reset when you start your PC or something? If you don't mind the lower performance, you should be able to run it on the intel card with minimal settings. Lowest textures, no shadows, etc.

Try setting the program "javaw.exe" to run on the Nvidia card (high performance) instead of the Starmade starter. This will most likely be a permanent solution for you.

That is an interesting suggestion, it would add a whole new level to construction. I'm guessing weapons would be highly customizable by changing the shapes/ratios of the blocks. The copy-paste function would prevent it getting tedious on big ships. However I don't think it is the direction that...

I suspect that your SP universe has carried over the old server config settings. I actually don't know though, as I haven't done a fresh install since the universe rework. I believe that the new default sector size is quite a lot bigger.

Creatures are in progress. If you go to an abandoned station and explore it on foot you might find something. PS keep your pistol handy when exploring abandoned stations!
