power 2.0

As someone who has had a lot of love for starmade in the past, I found the changes for power 2.0 to be too much to handle, and left the game for a bit-as it was no longer any semblance of what it originally was. I would love to rekindle my love for the game, but is it worth it during this stage...

Equipped with a scanner with 3.0 strength and ore scanner module Equipped with 3.0 non-cloak non-jam stealth drive Equipped with level 3 top speed Power 2.0 reactors 3600 shields (enough to survive) Low mass - decoration done with motherboards, lights and circuits Purple! Very awesome! Safe -...

It would seem that many, newcomers or not, would misuse or underuse the motherboard, circuit/charged circuit, and hull/armor blocks. This has minutes ago become a huge disappointment to me and I will write a simple guide to use these. Like any guide there will be people who post "Oh, I already...

I'm currently building a space station using power 2.0. I placed down about 7,000 stabilisers in two seperate groups, all good. But when I started placing down reactors, the station only detected the first hundred or so in the power stats tab, but after that placing more blocks onto the reactor...

Hello! So I'm loving all the customization available in the chamber system, HOWEVER, I have a few suggestions here so that servers can start utilizing these features that you spent so much time creating for us! (Thank you by the way! :D) As a server admin, my focus is on providing unique...

The Chrysoprase is a vertically-oriented mining ship capable of defending itself against small opponents. While it's not the most beautiful ship right out of the box, feel free to paint and decorate it as you see fit! Advantages include: Wide salvage array backed by Mining 2 and Ore Scanner...

This pertains to the FTL Chambers in particular. I built 4 chambers for my ship to utilize, all of which exceed the size requirements by about 10%, and have proper connections to the reactor via the conduits. However, when specifying the individual chambers, I am ONLY able to choose the Base...

I can build new ships w/ power 2.0 but I mess up every time I try to convert from old to new. Please covert this ship to power 2.0 and message back.

Hello there! I've been trying to build a warp gate since the new "teleport anywhere" perks seemed really interesting. I used a 100 radius circle (800 warp gates block), managed to have it powered it up with 5000 reactor block, 25% stabilisation to get the maximum e/sec and added 3 chambers to...

Does anybody really understand the way these new dimensional bonuses work? I've been playing around stabilizing my ship, and I'm confused as hell. The update notes provided on Steam and nowhere else state: "To calculate the bonus of 1 of the 6 sides, we take the stabilizer group with the most...

One key component I find missing from the power 2.0 update is the inclusion of logic interaction. We can manually switch reactors and chamber branches but this would allow for so much more freedom if it could be done via logic giving us a little more freedom in a very restrictive system. You...

Allow me to present Power3.0- >Two types of blocks-reactors and dimensions. >Place down "dimensions" type power block to define a volume. (Similar to old power dimensions, except this is just grouped single lines of blocks along each axis, i.e similar to scanner antennae, cept in 3D) >For...

I have a salvage ship, and I have salvage beams. However, they take a lot of power. Currently, my salvager is incredibly long, just to get my stabilizers to 40% efficiency, but the more salvage beams I add, the more reactors I need, and the longer it gets. I would like a way to make my ship not...

I haven't done much testing with the shields, but from what I've seen from them they now protect you in bubbles made bigger by the amount of rechargers you have. You can increase that bubble's capacity by adding more shield capacitor blocks inside the bubble. The capacitors also charge faster...

So I'm just starting to figure out the power 2.0 update, but one thing I've noticed is that a lot of things have to be grouped into cubes, or their integrity will be negative. However, for salvage beams this really can't be done because they need to be separated into long lines to get the most...

Has anyone conducted any real combat tests of finished ships (ie having viable thrust, shields, armor, weapons) built in 2.0? A long tube gets max per-block power efficiency from reactors, but it makes "coring" the stabilizer and reactor core pretty easy since you always know where they are. It...

So Power 2.0 was billed as being scaled so that fighters and other small craft (EDIT: Names aside - doesn't matter if you're calling it a fighter, gunship, bomber, or banana boat - just refering to small combat craft) would not require stabilizers to effectively function. Based on...

So many long and derailed threads are popping up because of the misunderstanding of what META exactly is for the thread's topic. Unfortunately, I have only a basic understanding of the current and "upcoming" META. So I'll ask. What is the current META, and what are it's good points and what...

With the power update hitting pre-release, and seeming to start nearing the final features, you probably want to start practicing and preparing. Fortunately, we've got this! Cake Development Build Server runs parallel the main server. The whitelist is the same, and the admin list is the same...

IT'S TIME TO STOP AND THINK I mean, really... really really reeeaaallllllyyy... just... STOP. Stop and think: What makes a good mechanic? This whole Systems 2.0 Update we can blame Schema for- but I honestly don't know who's really behind the wheel of these horrible ideas. Every devbuild one...
