Now that shaped blocks were reformed, can I dare hope for 22,5° wedge blocks in the future? You know, twice as acute as the normal 45° wedge blocks. It would make wedge-shaped ship hulls look so much smoother.

Before the rail system, I always built my turrets partially recessed into the ship's hull. A minimal 7x7x7 turret would stand 3 metres above the hull, while extending 4 metres below it. I figured that it would make my turrets harder to hit, allow it to have more shields (since the lower layers...

I hired 4 NPCs. I told the first one to walk onto a block in my ship, and when he arrived there, he the ship's gravity caught him and bound him to the ship. I could move the ship at any speed, without the NPC falling off. I did the same with the second NPC. That went fine, too. But the 3rd and...

I would like to use logbooks to keep notes and make lists. But lists need multiple lines, else they become hard to read. logbooks can only have 4 lines. Is there a file I can edit to make logbooks have more than 4 lines?

Every time I start a single player game, the launcher is connecting to... something. It takes 10-15 seconds until that connection is established. Once, my internet was down, and that connection failed, leaving me unable to play. What is the game connecting to, why does it need an internet...

2 days ago, my game stopped working. I start the launcher, press the Start Game button, the launcher closes, and that's it. No error message, not even a slight rattle from the HD. There are no relevant logs in the log folder (all the logs are from 2 days ago, when Starmade was still working)...

Do other stations exist that have a vendor, or is the one at your spawn point the only one? The vendor in my game has disappeared long ago; probably killed by a bug. Now I can't buy crew members.

Is there any practical use for these things, or are they just for decoration?

Only the turrets are there. Typing "/search myshipname" gives the sector where I parked the ship, but there's nothing there, except the turrets. Restarting the game didn't help. EDIT: Even the space station (the 2,2,2 Shop) with the NPC vendor in it is gone!

Some of the sound effects are broken. Cannon impact, opening inventory, and being close to a core no longer make the sounds they should, but instead give static noise. Other sounds are unaffected and play as they should. This happened when I updated the game to 0.1846. I never had that problem...

I tried to find a way to change the mass of certain blocks in the block editor, but there doesn't seem to be a way. Should metal meshes and medical cabinets have the same mass as advanced armour and hyperflux thrusters? I feel that blocks that are made of arguably lighter materials should also...

I hesitate to ask, because of how I got trashed for my last thread, but here goes... Is breathable air going to be added at some point? After all, astronauts have helmets, so that would suggest that there are environments in which they can breathe, and environments in which they need to wear...

Apart from the ongoing discussion about encouraging the building of smaller ships alongside large ships, I would very much like to see possibilities to discourage the building of overly large ships altogether. I find that ships comprising millions of blocks shouldn't exist at all, or at least...

I just updated to 0.1616, and now everything is invisible, except astronauts and the display screens of display blocks. The blocks are definitely still there, as my character collides with them.

I shot two pirate Isanths apart. Literally. Down to the last block, until only the Core remained. But the Core wouldn't take any damage. Similarly, I'm unable to destroy the Faction Blocks of any pirate station in the universe. I'm shooting with my main gun, with my turrets, with explosives...

I set ENEMY_SPAWNING to false in my server.cfg, and yet, they spawn by the dozens. Any way to get rid of them?

I followed a pair of traders to see where they're going. It turned out, they went to attack a starbase. After a few seconds, pirates joined in. Then, more traders arrived. And then, more pirates. And more traders, and more pirates. After 10 minutes, the sector was full of ships, but they kept...

In some of my screenshots, glass appears translucent, exactly as it is during gameplay. But most times when I take a screenshot, glass will become opaque for a second, and appear like that in the screenshot. How can I ensure that glass stays see-through whenever I want to take a picture?

I can't make heads or tails of it. In one ship, my character spawns in front of the core. In another, he spawns on top of it. In the third, he turns up UNDER the core (and proceeds to fall into the void). Is there some way to force the character to always spawn behind the core when he exits it?

I wanted to build a second ship, but after entering the ship's name, I couldn't see the core. The HUD pointed towards it, and it was listed in Navigation, but when I moved in its direction, there was nothing there. So, I bought another core, tried it again, but the result was the same. Now I...
