InGameName: Monchoman45 Why you want to join the server: see stuff, poke stuff, maybe build stuff. I used to really enjoy flying around the mushroom fleet server just to see what people were up to. Example of your work: old boi, from back when advanced armor still weighed the same as hull: new...

This is a pack of small anti-fighter and/or anti-drone turrets, useful against comparably small targets. A beam, missile, and cannon turret are included, along with a naked base that shows how the systems inside are laid out (in case you want to quickly retrofit the systems inside). Beam...

You can also buy Starmade directly from Schine. As a bonus, distributors like steam and GoG take a cut of sales; by buying direct, Schine gets all the money.

You can avoid doubling the ship size by only tracking chunks with blocks in them. Minecraft does this to prevent storing megabytes of nothing to represent the sky.

How do you turn the gate on or off? Currently you just fly through, which means gates are unmanned.

Cameras linked to display modules is frequently suggested; last I heard, it's probably impossible with the current rendering system and isn't really considered important or a big priority, so that'll probably never happen. Chairs are already planned and will probably show up when crew is...

I have to agree with jstenholt, this makes no sense. We have FTL, we're a little bit beyond realism. If solar panels generate less power than reactors, they're useless - why build solar panels when you can just run reactor lines instead? More power with fewer strings attached. If solar panels...

This thread is two years old, the system has changed a bit. Try the suggestions forum.

I don't have that setup, but you'll be fine. If you can afford those, you can afford plenty of RAM and a sizeable SSD and be in the top 1% of starmade players in terms of hardware.

So, basically just custom loot tables?

Shield and power reactors need shield or power supply beams to work, which require power supply computers, and docked thrusters aren't any more powerful than just putting the thrusters on the mothership.

Personally, I think any docked entity without computers (eg, no salvage computer, no jump drive computer, no weapons, and so on) should receive 100% parent shields and remain docked even if the docker is shot off. This covers elevators, rail doors, rail clocks, and other assorted things that...

Hasn't been mentioned here yet, but one thing brought up all the other times this is suggested is that text based programming has a much higher entry barrier than logic blocks, and most people just want light switches or simple rail doors. Scriptable blocks adds a whole bunch of issues; it'll...

Surround it with armor and throw in a logic activated damage pulse. Problem solved.

I generally decide roughly where I want my core, then frame around it. I try to build a core room and some stuff around it as soon as possible just so I have something centered around the core that I like and don't feel like changing. Then I can move other things around in relation to that using...

For the future, there's an arrow at the top of the screen that always points forward. Or you can throw a thruster on it.

This probably isn't possible, there's no distinction between a ship and a docked entity or a turret. It also seems entirely unnecessary; why dock it anyway? I could just build it into the ship normally. It'd be just as "invincible". In fact, docking it would probably make it less invincible -...

This is a thread about a graphical change, but quality of graphics isn't the primary objective?

What he means is that the textures have a fixed resolution, and increasing their size doesn't make them sharper. Look at your example: your enlarged 4x4 texture looks blocky and low quality. This isn't CSI, we can't just enhance. That, and most people don't expose large bricks of weapons or...

This is true if the entire cannon blast is antimatter, but it doesn't have to be. Especially considering AMCs use no ammo; producing enough antimatter for a cannon blast the size of what you see in starmade would involve a huge power cost (specifically because the only way we can currently make...
