Although you can still manually replace files for your custom blocks.

Considering how much is going to be in this update, i wouldn\'t be surprised if it was ready to move to beta!

 

[danyjaneway]

Many news, but few in game.

Hi Dave!

 

[danyjaneway]

Space engineers has still better graphics and modeling of textures (more - better than cube, wedge and corner with picture) than Starmade, but I like Starmade. Graphics are not everything. Playability is.

Iam fan of Starmade!!!

 

[Pirate_Ray]

can i orrrrder them to swashbuckle the enemy?

swab the filthy decks?

walk the plank?

or even betterrrr, fly me pirate fleet?

[Calbiri]

Schema neglected to include this simply because currently his t0002 file is empty, so he didnt include it in the menu, i mentioned it to him, and it will be added

 

[Mariux]

Aaaarrrrrrrrgh!

 

[Jimbob7595]

I\'ve always wanted AI crew members, some marines would be great to take down to planets and place around the ship!

 

[DJ-Col7]

Complete with rave cannons.

What are Picks?

Shema will explain all the features in the release news correct?

 

[xandervm]

NCP crew? f*ck yeah :D

 

[Krade]

hopefully they fill the gap of uselessness of the bobby ai, Bobby was a stupid child who was dropped on his head as a baby

but really, im hoping for some simple commands like

undock/re-dock; no more manually docking ai fighters after a fight

fleet/escort; follows a ship or guards a station within a specified area, <-should be for bobby too

patrol; basically makes them roam around like pirates, or patrol within specified sectors, or between sectors

mine/scavenge; gathers minerals/disassembles shipwrecks while on patrol

raid, attacks any hostile ships/stations excluding faction homes

flee; runs from hostile ships/stations, useful for mining only ships

radio in; radios in specific commands to other daves

distress call; , like a scout ship gets attacked, sends a distress call, you can set other daves to respond to the call with certain commands like taking a fleet to its location

detected ship; say if you have a dave watching over a station you can have it send other daves to investigate or attack a ship in the area

regroup; pulls your forces back together

repair/rebuild; fixes and repairs ships/stations according to blueprints

that\'s all i can think of right now im shure there\'s more you could do with them

 

[DJ-Col7]

is genius.

 

[marcus87]

How will NPC crew influence ship design?

Are they needed for special tasks or are there special tasks planned?

 

[DjJoe666]

Aw hell yes you called him Dave.

Seriously, out of all the names on the planet you have chosen one of the best names in existent.

I will call my children Dave... even if they\'re girls *3*

 

[aceface]

Totally agree, this would surely top off the ai even for the official release!

 

[therimmer96]

Sweet. THanks :D

 

[therimmer96]

Picks refer to pickaxes in minecraft, so a new tool is being added to break blocks. Im assuming we cant just insta-break them now

 

[SBRover]

The new textures...they\'re...they\'re...beautiful!
