      Another year, another update?

      I'm still holding on to a dream of the perfect game. Expandable, procedural, and playable on older devices. Multiplayer, with openness to economics, warfare, and diplomacy. As of today, I will have a new PC. I had the same Toshiba laptop from 2011-2017 when it met my cat, and consequently, the...

      Templates on Building Hotbar

      Is it a feature I am missing, or is it possible to load several Templates unto a hotbar and then select them quickly without having to *unclick* Paste *click* load template, scroll through with no sorting options *load* and repeat? Maybe also have a 'template inventory' with a thumbnail image...

      Selecting the Ideal System for a Faction Base

      Hi all! Where would you point a noob for selecting an 'ideal' system to start a faction on survival, or multiplayer? Given the current unreliability of planets, my assumption is that 'many asteroid belts' and 'away from other factions' would play into it. Because of this, and because I have a...

      'In Atmosphere' Vessels

      A recent thread discussing ground Units prompted many to share images of drop ships and planetary scaled entities. My question is this: Have players crafted aircraft that lack the capability of space flight (can't escape gravity), but would otherwise fly around in the atmosphere of a planet...

      Discussion about future NPC Factions and villain concept

      I have in my head a concept of a faction that I'd like to implement for NPCs on a private server, or release for others to see. My concern is the game has not progressed to a point where this is possible, but my hope is that it can within months to a year from now. I will be asking questions...

      TheatsCo- the Clueless Collective

      Greetings! This is Theats, your resident noob who struggles with learning curves. I've begun some projects on a private server, which I hope to save as blue prints and bring over into multiplayer. Full disclosure- I am 95% clueless on weapons systems, 100% clueless on AI, 100% clueless on...

      Ship and Station Best Practices

      If there a source to find best practices for uniform ship construction and station construction? Obviously some artistic choices will vary, but I mean things like standard ranges of length, width, height, weight of hull, of hallways, of rooms, etc. I don't even know what systems should go on a...

      Advanced Build Question

      I am trying to figure out how to use the copy and paste functions better, and have figured out that you have to have something to paste against, and that it typically wants to paste from bottom to top, or from back to front of the ship. While trying to copy and paste, I was wondering if there...

      Confession of a Lurker

      I bought this game almost two years ago. I played for a bit, but because my graphics card (Nvdivia 310m from 2009) crapped out, I stopped playing most games. I have followed, at least monthly, and almost weekly, the updates on this game. I believe, truly, that this game will achieve what Star...
