      Controlled Ship Stop While AFK

      Not sure if the best way to do this would be a timer, a distance calculator, or something more complex like a function that reads your ship's distance from your current waypoint and stops the ship if it ever starts increasing. This way if you send your ship forward to a destination and step...

      Moving a space station?

      I was recently on a sever and I had asked a admin on there to move my space station closer to my planet. He responded with "no you will have to move it manually". So is that even possible?

      Don't forget to BUFF THRUSTERS for Power 2.0!

      Thrusters are still TERRIBLY under powered. I did some testing, only when my 15k Mass frigate is completely 100% (One Hundred Percent) filled with thrusters with NO ROOM for any systems (weapon modules, shield rechargers+capacitors, jump drives, or interior) can I achieve 2.5 TMR That's 47K...

      Directional Thruster Plumes

      I looked, found nothing, so here is my obvious and simple request/suggestion/impolite demand/whatever you may call it. Make plume direction be determined by thruster orientation. Recently ran into this issue on a build where I was using thrusters for an engine-core sort of look...and needed...

      Fuel and Ammo

      Well here's a subject that's been discussed quite a bit but i am gonna throw my own spin into it. As we wont be changing current systems in this idea but adding on instead. Parts could be omitted if they seem too complex Fuel Systems Thrusters: New fuel based thrusters that feed from a fuel...

      Read by Council Ship Turning

      The current way the thrusters work doesn't really make sense. They are all facing one direction, yet you can turn and even strafe? How are those thrusters exerting sideways forces like that? I was thinking that we should be made to place sideways thrusters to allow us to turn and strafe. With...

      Survey: Ship Stats

      I'd like to get a better feel of what players look for in terms of ship stats in relation to their size. I'm mostly a builder, but I've been getting back into the game gradually and to sharpen my ship building skills I'd like to know what other players look for when they take a look at the stat...

      New Weapon + Thruster + Shield + Generator + Fuel Generator, using resources

      Hi, so this is a pretty simple idea at the root of it. The AIM is to make smaller ships more useful and help larger ships be a little less annoying to use by introducing fuel/ammo based versions of already existing blocks and adding a new block to make use of stars in farming. New Weapon...
