      Bug 0.201.133 release - Missing chunks? Ship damaged on login

      Logged in and half my ship was gone. Good thing I wasn't done building it yet, but seriously, this is like a couple hours of work that just up and wandered off. This was a completed hull when I logged off, docked to a homebase to which only I had permissions. Server was LVD. Is missing blocks...

      Ten Lux Shipyard

      Currently working on three ships. Thought I'd share them. These are all more or less works in progress. First ship. Name: LUX Rocklamator Length: 90 meters Description: Miner / carrier. Suitable for newbies to learn how carriers work (or will be once I finish logic). Intended to become a public...

      Ghost destroyed blocks

      Proposing a new boolean block property, isDestroyed. This property allows blocks to be marked as destroyed by damage without removing them from play. Weapon fire should pass through isDestroyed blocks, and they should be invisible in Flight mode but visible (perhaps semi-transparent red) in...

      Reactor chambers

      One of the concerns that I've seen regarding the power update is that it introduces a lack of depth into ship design. Today small ships play a role in combat against larger ships, but these days are numbered. Soon, bigger will be strictly better. To address this concern, I propose the power...

      Fleet command: form up on me

      Fleet command: Form up on me. Fleet will attempt to maintain a loose formation (about two to four ship lengths) around the player's ship. If the player warps, the fleet will follow if able. The fleet will attack any enemies in the sector. Ships attempt to maintain distance from both player and...

      Large and XL blocks to streamline ray tracing

      Will put this up here since I think it's probably a good idea, if a little off topic. For distant/low LOD, just treat each chunk as one vertice. You could pre-calculate the average color and possibly shape (solid, empty, wedge) of the chunk faces if you bake it when the ship is being built. So...

      Dire Cruiser Project

      Hey all, I figured I'd get some public input on the cruiser I'm presently building. I was able to sketch together a quick blueprint, and I'll post screen shots tonight. The features on the blueprint are mostly skinned out with grey hull but no modules yet. The whole thing has a length of about...

      New Player Archetype Role

      So I noticed on the list of six player archetypes that there is something missing. I have to make some assumptions here because I don't have all the information yet, but I am going to assume that the imperialist is focused on global domination. They might interact with other players, but the...
