Why not if it does have a faction block, transmit to your faction only, but if no faction block it's a general signal? I love the idea and the way you're doing this. How about a chamber that when scanning is activated, it also broadcasts to those that can receive it. (I think that's what you...

could you dock a ship to the pirate station to force the AI to blast it to bits?

I will be employing the use of a nomenclature along these lines Especially the screamer, I quite like that name ^^ (Any and all future drones will be named screamers)

Perhaps a fix to this without redesigning is to up the rotational thrust? (I haven't played in a while, but keeping track of updates, and from memory you can adjust the proportion of thrust?)

How interesting, yes I would flag that as an error, either that the block is still there, or that the functions work without the block

Whilst a ship has full AI capacity when in a fleet, I believe if they're not in a fleet, Bobby AI is still useful (not sure why you'd want that though) Also, the AI module is still useful on turrets, so removing them would make all of our turrets useless and manual only

Basically, had a small discussion on another thread, and I would like to collate the suggestion to bring it up properly. I think that if we added the ability for turrets/Bobby AI/Fleet AI to target "neutral" entities (asteroids and planets) that could open up a lot of interesting things for us...

Point taken, shall post in suggestions anyway and see what comes of it

Perhaps this type of thread would be better suited to the suggestions forum

If so, then there shouldn't be a major problem with a single loading point Multiple loading points would be quicker I'd imagine still, but not essential if they are able to queue

(How I understood your design is that it only works with perpendicular shootout rail, as parallel rails don't meet) Unfortunately I've seen elsewhere in the forums they only reach a third of max speed while on the rail (using the rail speed enhancers linked to a shootout rail) but this would be...

So far this seems to be only a good option for mining planets [Disclaimer, the following statements have been made without any knowledge of coding] However, would it be hard for the devs to include in the next patch the option for the AI to also target neutral entities? Just an addition to the...

Going to post my thoughts on drones and fleets since I won't be getting around to making it anytime soon I saw earlier that it was raised that launching drones one at a time would be non-beneficial which I agree with, but I don't think you have to bypass the new system to achieve this end. How...

Questions not covered in the update video To what extent has the AI been developed with the fleets, for instance Is it possible for a carrier + fleet to have all the fleet docked, then automatically detect it's under attack and deploy its docked ships to defend itself, or would that be...

Five hours before you posted this from the thread : Anyone up for murdering the dev build when it comes out? Seems to be the dev's are still quite active Been keeping tabs on the mentioned thread to see what's being tested at that point in time

This to me says that it's a large update that will break the two week update schedule for an indeterminate amount of time. We just have to wait, keep the ear to the forums about what's happening in the dev builds, or jump on a dev build to help with bug squashing. To be honest, this would be...

Bonus Note: If you default all your storages connected to rails/dockers to pull, if somebody visits you, or you visit somebody it'll prevent theft. But also, you may be able to pinch some stuff back from them, so bonus

Whilst you can't really move the docker around, you could move the rail So for instance, have them flush, but when you want to dock to something, retract the rail basic into the ship slightly, so that only the correct pair of dockers and rails can dock together

If you solved this, it would be good to post how just in case somebody else has this same issue

This theory also applies for all three dimensions, it's just hard to explain in words. You want each block to extend the groups dimension in any direction, if you draw a bounding box around it, and there's power blocks that are within that that are not contributing to extending it, it's not as...
