      How do you balance a cheater? With a ban hammer.

      For those of us who are casual players, could you demonstrate what a "meta" reactor is?

      What Do We Want From Planets?

      I voted for "Bigger, rounder, but otherwise pretty much the same as they are now." But... I also want to see planets be a renewable resource, for different types, at least differences between gas and rock planets. The most important factor is performance, they can stay the same size and shape...

      New Planet Speculation Thread

      Translated: "My way or the highway". There's a valid a point there. Take a look at No Man's Sky, a game that heavily relies on procedural planet generation for exploration (that's the entire point of the game). Ignoring all the other issues with the game, what they achieved with their planets...

      New Planet Speculation Thread

      You might be right, it could just be performance increase, size increase and better terrain generation (biomes, buildings, monuments etc). If they go for any of the examples I listed, angles between the plates will be reduced. I've thought about this a little. If they're using a plate based...

      How do you view planets?

      I don't want to see another planet space game simulator. I think large amounts of time spent on planets, is large amounts of time wasted. If I wanted to play Minecraft, I'd be playing it. If I wanted to play planet exploration 2016, I'd be playing No Man's Sky. If I wanted to fool myself into...

      New Planet Speculation Thread

      I was going to post this in my own thread, but seeing as how there is a planet conspiracy thread already.... :D It seems to me that a plate system is being used here, the plates are being warped to appear spherical in nature. We can see warped "plate" systems in physical real world objects...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      As long as you're not naming it something very similar with the express purpose of confusing potential customers between the two products, there are no issues. Take a look at the host of games similar to StarMade. I don't think you'd be able to do it, but at least you would have learnt how...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      Profit Welcome to the real world, companies are here to create a profit for the work they do. They are not here to make a loss or break even. If another company or individual thinks they can offer a superior product for the same price or cheaper, they will do that. If someone thinks they can...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      This is funny, you do realise this will never generate the same amount of revenue a purchase will right? Yea, I do, as I said, you rarely make sense. When you write garbage English, don't expect to receive complete understanding. We could make the debate of software as a service vs a product...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      90% of the time, you make no sense at all. I understand English isn't your first language, but just know, most people here do not know what you are talking about most of the time, hence, your posts are usually ignored. With that out of the way, StarMade is a product, just like every single...

      No kidding the power system is broke just realized why!

      Ok, but this is for (at least) the second time :) On Sep 22, 2016: To all of my fellow community members, I highly recommend reading that post, schema chimes in here: You just got to love the chunk system used on vehicles. (OP's proposal here makes very little sense, and demonstrates his lack...

      StarMade Surprise Update

      From what I know of Eco, admittedly not a lot, it's a planet based game, where all gameplay content occurs on a single planet. There's no reason for it to be interactable or truly spherical externally, so it doesn't need to take that into account. What you're seeing in that image is the world...

      A Scripter's Wishlist - For Future-Compatible Server Modding, creating Quests, Events, and More.

      Just a tip, make a google doc with all these suggestions. Group them in some way, for example, grouping them by which ones would help modders the most. One single, easy to read document is going to be far easier for a developer to go over. Just want to help your chances of getting this into the...

      Starmade being overtaken?

      Hi, I'm a pre-alpha tester for Skywanderers. I've played some, as well as watched gameplay content, so I have a rough idea of where the game is in development. I'm a game developer myself, so can speak a little on my perspective of the two games. Skywanders positives... Skywanderers is...

      Auto-Log-Out Time

      I get this issue as well, I do use a VPN. Yes, I am a security nutter :cautious:. I would very much like this. I can't use this forum as it currently stands, although, I despise sites that don't have auto logout times, I'd be willing to sacrifice that to be able to actually post. Otherwise, I...

      Welcome the Change

      The OP really missed a chance here to say something impactful, instead, it came across as welcome this particular change. This is not the right way to go about this. Let's put whether you like or dislike the proposal to the side, and address what Schine has actually done. What's incredibly...

      Power System Overhaul Proposal

      The goal should be, small scale systems = easy to do, this is what a beginner will be making. They're not going the be making a massive, or even medium sized ship when learning. Finally, large scale systems = complicated. A new player shouldn't be able to master the art of creating large ships...

      Power System Overhaul Proposal

      Good developers improve their games, even if that means at the cost of making some sections of their community angry. This effort is a good intention, it doesn't even matter if this is a good or bad proposal. We should focus on the negatives that actually matter, instead of making up excuses...

      Power System Overhaul Proposal

      Yea, no, this is not a valid issue. This is a game in development, if you think your precious little ships are worth more than improving the game, perhaps you need to go play a game that isn't in development. Some of us actually want to see improvements made. That being said, I have no idea...
