I'm trying to setup a small server to use with my friends using an old laptop running 32 bit lubuntu and openjdk 11. I'm able to install the game and I'm able to run de dedicated server script. But when it gets to the loading resources part of the launch I get a...

Help, I've spent 11 hours building a large carrier ship, but haven't added any weapon systems, or a warp drive yet, and I'm being attacked by pirates. I exited the game to stop my ship being destroyed as I cannot fight them off or run away. Is there any way for me to stop them from destroying...

Hello, guys! AndyP , Lancake, DukeofRealms . I would be delighted If anyone could help me with these minor nuisiances: 1) My support / feature request is simple enough. I believe that it can be achieved editing some obscure XML like file that I'm unaware of. Is there a way to move faster on...

Hi everyone! I have a question. I came up with this battle mode thing, but how i can setup it? I mostly dont understand this part: BATTLE_MODE_FACTIONS = [TeamA, fighters, 500,500,500, 0.5,0.1,0.9];[TeamB, fighters, -500,-500,-500, 0.5,0.9,0.2];[TeamFFA,ffa, 0,0,-500...

I've started working on some basic game play and help videos to hopefully increase interest in star made and help new players. As an admin and server owner I've encountered a lot of the same questions. I hope the videos help. Starmade Beginner Gameplay 2019 Starmade 2019 - Stealing a ship...

I'm trying to find some advise regarding modern anti-missile systems. As everyone knows, the Weapons 3.0 update introduced some sort of health to missiles... Related questions: 1) Is the missile health value a threshold which has to be matched/exceeded by the damage value of a cannon...

DukeofRealms @moderators, Not sure if you stopped by yet, but me and some boys are trying to make a tutorial thread: StarMade University. We would like to break its lengthy topics in various postings/replies for easier access, but the SMD application keep concatenating the whole thing. Is any...

In general, what is happening is that I open up the game and start playing on my creative singleplayer world. The game runs fine for about 15 to 30 minutes, then my computer suddenly turns off. My game ran perfectly fine the day before, and I didn't make any major changes to the game settings or...

So, back again after almost 5 years. Back then I helped build the Megido (https://starmadedock.net/threads/back-from-the-dead-project-megido.11494/) and now we're semi working on adapting it to the modern systems. Anyhow, that's not really what I'm here for. I've been trying to convert that ship...

Hi all! I built a wicked insectile alien ship shell and I was hoping you guys could give me some advise about how to system a ship with the role I want to give it. I intend to use it as an AI-driven drone in a station defense fleet. The plan is to have a huge purple alien station with 5 or 10...

Finally working on something large and using the Build Helpers pane to create large scale structure (circular arcs, namely). So there's this interesting feature called Restrict Building to Helper that acts as a mask so only blocks are placed within the helper zone. And Symmetry can be used a...

How do I lock StarMade to a specific version and prevent it from automatically updating to a new release? There is supposed to be infrastructure in Steam to do this, but either it isn't working correctly, it doesn't exist, or I have it setup wrong. I have tried to set my version to Release...

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...

New to this game (just started with v0.200.335), find it very compelling, but having some difficulties with build mode. It is clear to me that in order to create larger and more complex structures, I need to master the advanced build mode tools, but I feel like a child grasping in the dark. I...

Hello everyone, I'd like to spawn in an area with no stations of any kind around, so I am forced to build my own infrastructure and would not be interrupted by pirates (At least until I leave said area). My question is; would this even be doable without mods, and how? Bonus question: If I need...

I've started to play a lot more with creative inventory to test out all of these different factors that go into making a ship. And by far the one that has me the most puzzled is structural integrity. I've looked for help on the wiki but it seems outdated on that topic. Can someone at least begin...

I've been playing for 3 days now and I 'm having trouble finding consistency as to how these two things work. (Along with a few other things) Here are a few questions I have: When I add too many Shield Capacitors and Rechargers to a ship, the integrity of the entire ship reduces dramatically as...

I like the idea of the game but I have a question or two to ask first. 1. What does a crew do? 2. Can you have multiple ships with some commanded by Ai? 3. Can you start colonies and build an empire populated by NPCs? 4. Why do you enjoy the game?
