      Read by Council Too Many Artificial Numbers

      As the title suggest, I feel there are too many artificial values in the game that should be replaced by self-explanatory ingame mechanics instead. Why do shields stop being shared at a certain threshold ( 25% / 50% ) instead of depending on a reasonable correlation between e.g. shield cap...

      Although the "similar threads" shown upon creating did not yield any results, I can imagine this got suggested before already. Forgive me if that turns out to be the case but I simply feel this is of utmost importance. Advanced Buildmode should let you: 1. Select and move parts of your...

      Suiciding Penalty

      If you put somebody in a difficult situation, i. e. you capture somebody inside your ship or putting up a fight they likely will lose, I noticed quite some situations where people immediately suicide, taking away all possible interaction that could have happened with this player. What you will...

      Questions, Questions, Questions

      Hello all, I am enjoying starmade for quite some time but rarely go further than fiddeling around with a few blocks. Watching all these amazing build on youtube and such, I thought I'd finally try myself on something bigger. Assuming that those ships are being build for online servers with PVP...
