Then you must have some ancient drivers on your computer (Windows XP era). M$ doesn't support old hardware. Or maybe the drivers are just poorly written.

You must have a bunch of vendor specific hardware. Or just a bunch of cameras and printers. I simply don't install crap I don't need on windows.

Compatibility and it was preinstalled on my computer. It's better for playing the big name games. Other than that windows is terrible. I think the hardware manufacturers like having a closed source platform for their drivers. Windows is slow and fat.

Might as well just keep the total number of colors available as a nice power of 2, so that memory is used efficiently.

I hate it when people do that I find that it slows down the loading of pages a great deal. If it took 2 seconds to load normally, with imgur it takes 20 seconds. Here's a bash script that does exactly what I promised: It depends on the package ImageMagick. It also resizes the files to 50% the...

Wouldn't putting a faction permission module on the core prevent the player from entering the ship in the first place?

How about releasing the source code instead? Or creating a github repository. What about Linux or FreeBsd users? We might be using a unix-like OS, but the dumbed down version of unix that apple sells usually doesn't work with ours.

Might as well just use 32 colors because 10 is right between 2^3 and 2^4. I just can't think of a simple encoding scheme for using 10 colors (I like to think in 1 byte increments, it's a lot easier than dealing with individual bits). Such a scheme might use 4 bits for each side yielding a 3 byte...

This would take up a lot of bandwidth unless players were limited to something like 256 colors, and the blocks would divided up into quarters on each side. This would only add 24bytes (6 sides * 4 spots per side) per block for memory usage any other option like PNGs or Jpegs would add a lot more...

We don't need any more systems, we have enough already. The best solution to the OP cloaking system is to have them decloak when firing or fired upon which would disable the cloak for say 10 seconds. Also have them decloak if the ship is within 20 meters of another structure. To counter the lag...

Perhaps PNGs take less time to encode and that is why they're used instead of JPEG. It appears that jpeg takes longer to encode with the compression. Schema really seems to try to pull every little performance trick possible, so this might be one of them. If you're sick of converting write a...

That is a great idea. However, what would stop the player from just stripping the loaner ship.

What security hole? All I know about Steam is it's a pain to get working on Linux boxes. At least in my experience.

I like this idea, however what's to stop griefers from stealing the starter ships and taking the resources.

I cheat to get resources on my single player game. I like building more than I like fighting or grinding.

When Starmade comes to steam does that mean I'll have to have steam on my computer to play or will the standalone launcher still work? I don't want to put Steam on my linux box, steam and Fedora don't work well together.

How would this work on a multiplayer server? Where new players are joining all the time.

The direction of arrows say which one is the primary selection(Orange Box Selection). The arrows point toward the connected blocks(purple). Ascii Diagram for vacuuming to primary: (Docked)Storage --> Core (Main Ship)Docking Port --> Storage Ascii Diagram for sending to docked: (Main...

This would be really cool, I could make a ship shaped like a gun and have lights pulsing down the sides. On each side

I don't like the idea of a cargo transport beam with transfer ports. I would prefer to use existing docking ports and connections as follows. Transfer to station from ship: PlexStorage --(Link)--> Ship Core On Station: Docking port ship connected to ---> PlexStorage on station I would also...
