      PvP Anti-Player Research

      Anyone noticed that overdrive effect does not add up to block count of weapons? This makes it almost useless. To be more precise, it does not add up to total block count when calculating damage. However, it does add up to block count when calculating power consumption.

      Thrusters only push at the direction they're pointed at

      For all those guys talking about realism and creative ship building as Ithirahad rightfully pointed out without anyone noticing: - Turning a cube sideways does not change anything to your build. - However having sideways external thrusters that actually look like they push sideways is megacool...

      Thrusters only push at the direction they're pointed at

      OMG I posted the exact same thing like 2 weeks ago! And you even replied to that thread! Why do you get more answers? Cause you have a profile picture? Back on topic: Yeah we need those directional thrusters, starmade needs that, common sense screams for that, DO IT! And btw, the GUI solution...

      Weapon balance, we don't need that

      Lecic: You don't even TRY to be constructive. The goal of this thread is to start a discussion. I proposed what I think is a good solution. Please propose yours instead of just rejecting everything in block. You can take example on Valiant 70 for that. At the moment the META is missiles in...

      Module Docking Block

      Maybe it could be done without wireless logic if the docked entity can be considered completely part of the ship, this would simplify all calculs. I hope it is feasible and if it is I see no reason not to implement it cause this would just be pure awesome!

      Turrets Reset to Default Position When Not in Combat

      That's why I like the logic reset button idea.

      Weapon balance, we don't need that

      Who said I did not try? IRL, weapons are designed for different purposes: long range, close quarter, self defense, mass destruction etc... In the current implementation of starmade weapons are just designed to do damage, there is no real reason to use one or the other except personal taste...

      Weapon balance, we don't need that

      Maybe... but I think it will always be less effective than other weapons for damage. It is true that I haven't used it a lot so I would appreciate if you guys could share a few examples of how you use it.

      Module Docking Block

      This si an overly complicated solution. Why not just add the number of blocks of the module to the total of the ship? The idea here is that, when docked, the module is part of the ship, it is not considered another entity anymore. As said earlier, it would be just like adding those blocks...

      Module Docking Block

      Nope, you are still thinking modules = no weight. If module adds weight then it can add everything no problem, it is a part of the ship. Same goes for turrets. The issue with sending data back and forth might be worked around by considering the module simply as part of the ship, it is 1 ship...

      Module Docking Block

      And so many more things. I was actually doing a cloaking device whith concentric rotating elypsoids so you can dock your ship in the middle and it is cloacked. But power is not transfered from one part to the other so I can never get enough power to cloak...

      Weapon balance, we don't need that

      Actually, I agree. But I feel it could do more. Maybe bigger range? Less damage and more emphasize on effects? I could see it becoming a way to affect many ships in an area with IEM or Stop/Push/Pull It could be this kind of role.

      Module Docking Block

      Actually it would do the opposite. If you remove the curve-thing it means more power with less mass... so smaller ships. Also: - Shield is not on a curve. - Thrust is determine by the number of blocks in one array. - Only power would be affected BUT we do not remove the curve-thing with this...

      Module Docking Block

      Oh... and what is the reason? The reason is that we could add power with weighless docked units. But if the unit shares weight as well we can share everything, it just becomes part of the ship, it is just natural. Actually Thrust is the least important thing to share cause it is easy to add...

      Turrets Reset to Default Position When Not in Combat

      Directional Thrusters

      Title says it all. We need that. Forward thrusters only? ship can only go forward. This way bigger ships will need more thrusters if want to turn faster. Yes it will make super fast turning giant ships possible but then they won't have room left for weapons. Also probably increase the...
