Look kids, I'm totally not dead, AND I have a fleet! Solar's Star Scouts - Official fleet contest SUBMISSION So after leaving for like 3 months or so and attempting to "build good" again, I can conclude that I can't do well with ships that are either too small or too large. I need to re-do my...

For the official fleet contest I introduce to everyone an explorer fleet for analyzing new areas such as abandoned stations, planets, asteroid sectors, and more!

starmade has potential but like 3 guys in their garage are building it right now.

NOICE. more details please, as in the logic behind it and more. also i'm just gonna be using groups of 6. maybe.

well i really just want to focus on hangars for "fighter class" drones (fighter class drones are what i define as larger than 1k, usually 1k-3k. regular drones sit under 1k for me). starmade logic gates are a bit strange, probably because im used to meinkraft's redstone. which is why i wanna...

well atleast we got fleets, and with this game being operated by 3 guys i dont think development is going to speed up quickly. be glad that starmade isnt being developed by freejam, tho.

so kiddies, i think the drone r&d thread should also focus on bigger drones. i've been doing some work with some fighter drones in a video i made and feel like there should be discussions on here of hangars n stuff.

KIDS, SCIENCE IS IN PROGRESS!

well no. this carrier is gonna deploy drones for defense/capture a point, so I'm only calling back the racks for refilling manually. the drones stay behind to do whatever I told them to do

so im currently planning a 20 drone carrier that will launch drones on flat racks like the Annoying Stick I made. basically i intend for this thing to capture a small bunker in a battle or deploy guard drones/mines, bring back ONLY the racks and reload them.

s try starting by flipping geometric shapes into a wedge. then try more complex thugs like vertical designs, wings, walls of cannons, etc. pick a shape that fits what you're building and go for it.

so kids, it's time to do science. who's ready for drone fleets?

Not really. Think of it as throwing a bunch of ships in the kitchen sink, cutting off the parts you dont like about them, and analyzing the stuff you do like. Then do something from scratch with the properties in mind. Then follow this: Get idea and build. If it looks good, it's done. If not...

eeeEasy! you do teh SCIENCE and watch people burN with hourScinece! In all serious though, my method is to STEEEL URIGIONAL CHURACTERS. Well, atleast get as much inspiration as you can. Spawn in some test ships, replicate artwork, copy/paste parts of good builders. So throw stuff at the wall...

hehEHehEHeh guess who else hard of the NEWS of rts-tyle fleet command ooOOOoo your fav scientist is reTURNing

First cargo transport ship! http://starmadedock.net/content/apple-class-milk-man-cargo-delivery.3841/

This ship is pretty simple and turned out okay. Designed to carry supplies over long distances, this thing is super slow and can only use its radar jammer in short bursts because I built the interior first and had little room for systems because I'm bad at planning. Anyway, enough of negative...

New less-ugly and less-blocky ship! http://starmadedock.net/content/5709-harassing-me-heavy-pulse-fighter.3819/

So after the ugly mess that was my pickaxe, I decided to go for something with a bit more quality. This ship is based on a combination of Dalmont's designs and some PA stuff. I'm bad at making generic cheesy "ooo its gonna cause the enemy lots of trouble," so here are some stats instead. Mass...

Blockiest ship I've made so far. Since I focused mainly on salvaging and less on looks it's kind of ugly (block shape) and has blank spaces in the back. It can carry cargo crates, though! Stats: 7.4k mass 101m long P/R 1mil/1.5mil S/R 59k/9k 11340(main 5670)size cannon salvager
