      Help with new player

      I have just started the game and found out that a lot of old pirate(mabey factions?) blueprints are outdated and from what i have been told the only way to fix this is to replace them with community creations. Would people plz link creations for a full playthough so you can get the feel pre...

      Blueprint mapper

      I think Starmade would benefit from having a mapping program that provides a Top-Down visual of our blueprints. This program would read the sment files and create a pixel-type map of our ships, layer by layer. Although this would create some redundant layers, especially for larger ships, it...

      BP Spawn to Docking

      When v0.201.336 was announced one of the features in the changelog was: "Can now load blueprints directly onto docks" I recall seeing the option at the time, and I was sure it was under "create docking" in advanced build mode, but now I can't find it anymore. I'm really starting to go a little...

      Save Rail Load/Unload Settings on Blueprints

      Would it be possible for rail load/unload settings be saved in blueprints, or just default to "always allow for faction"? I'm trying to make shipping containers, but each needs to be configured manually, making it unfeasible for a trade fleet.

      Organize blueprints into folders

      When I push "U" to view my blueprint list, it is a big list. I wish I could create folders to organize them. My soul grows weary of scrolling through a long list of carefully crafted ship names.

      Traders Home blueprints and misc. NPC stuff

      The trade node Traders Home is a beautiful and functional station. I decided that I wanted to build my own, away in some lonely sector, just for fun, except that I cannot find the blueprints anywhere in the game files. The only place it seems to exist is as an entity, and that isn't a...

      Spawn Ships to Docking Rails

      When I spawn a ship from schematic in a shipyard, it appears docked to the shipyard core. So this function mechanic exists. When I spawn a ship from a blueprint (or shipyard), it would sure be nice if I had the option to tell it to spawn docked to a named rail dock on my structure. Instead...

      List of outdated blocks to remove when modernizing blueprints

      I started a thread a while ago, in which I missed a key point due to having no substantial experience in the survival gameplay area of StarMade (thread: Question: the ultimate fate of outdated blocks and blueprints?). I learned that when players try to spawn or shipyard-produce structures from...

      Question: the ultimate fate of outdated blocks and blueprints?

      My main concern has little to do with systems, but I was recently informed by a fellow player that the current compatibility of blueprints that rely on legacy systems is only temporary, and we won't be able to spawn such blueprints down the road(?). The only thing I read about outdated block...

      Allow Bulk Blueprints/Spawning

      Larger ship mobs seem to be more functional recently, and now I'm wishing for a way to bulk fill & spawn identical ships in MP as a player. Admin mass spawn is fine for testing, but there should be a way for players themselves in MP to get their fighter and drone swarms into play without...

      Blueprint Download Detector - Wrapping Client-side - Linux

      So this is a pretty basic script for linux. It wraps the log file and looks for log entries regarding downloading a blueprint design to local. It tells you when it starts and when finished. I created this since the game doesn't seem to bother informing the player when a blueprint download is...

      Improve the Catalog Manager to handle multiple worlds

      I use multiple single-player "worlds" to keep my designs organized into different universes. However, the blueprint catalog manager doesn't work well with multiple worlds. I think it should be able to shuffle any blueprint saved from any "world" to any other "worlds" on the same server. In...

      Include Turrets in Shipyards

      Simple: either through designating a storage as being for turret plans or through allowing selection of blueprints labelled as turrets, add a feature to shipyards allowing the builder (with available resources) to add turrets from a list to any empty turret dock on the loaded design.

      Blueprint Icons

      Icons on the left (same one a creator puts in Community Content for example) of all blueprints, and a bigger version next to the performance graph when you click on a blueprint to buy/spawn/view. Srsly. Show me what I'm looking at already. How is this not already a thing?

      Starmade Blueprints not migrating correctly.

      Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me with migrating blueprints from previous versions of starmade because when updating to latest version a ship I have spawned and that is already present in the game world ends up looking like this: The same also happens to blueprints from previous...

      Per-entity control of logic pipes via advanced build options

      It's great we can disable logic pipes... but some structures are designed with the intent that logic pipes should be disabled from view. Currently disabling of logic pipes is global through the graphics menu. Lets allow BP designers to select whether to display logic pipes should be displayed...

      Read/Write to Zip files for Blueprints

      I ran into a bit of a problem on windows. When trying to move blueprints to a specific folder, windows told me the path was too long. This folder was something like: "c:\folder\starmade\blueprints\11-29-16". This is 4 folders deep. First I wasn't able to move some of the blueprints over...

      Recovering space station from copied blueprint folder

      Greetings! A while back I was working on a certain few projects, most notably my "SGI Asteroid Laboratory" which was seemingly lost in a clean install. My game was broken, and as such I was unable to export it's WIP blueprint as a sment. Fast forward to today, I found a copy of the blueprint...

      Importing Old Schematics

      I took a hiatus from the game about a year ago, but I backed up all my files, including a blueprint I want to get back to. All the tutorials on importing blueprints say there should be a .sment file. In my blueprints folder, I can only find a header.smbph, a logic.smbpl, and a meta.smbpm. Is...

      Retrieving blueprints from a corrupted world

      I made a big mistake by messing around with the config settings and now my main world became corrupted. When I try to enter the universe, the game gets stuck at "Connecting to Universe". So this isn't such a big deal to me because I have all my ship blueprints stored in my catalog and I can...
