    I have yet to see anything of the sort yet, so I figured I'd be the first to start catalouging these sorts of ultramassive ships, supersized forum threads, and just the endeavors and general awesomeness of the Starmade community as a whole. If you want to apply for a record, just post what record you're going for, and proof that you broke it. If you want to make a new record, just post the name of the record you'd like to create.

    My guess is the competition for the title for largest ship is between the Omega project, Skylord Luke, or the Rebel Alliance.

    Question, are large ships like these really practical. I mean, it will defintely be good at lagging the hell out of NASS.....

    but singleplayer and some of the better, smaller servers out there could.

    Hi,

    First; single-player can not handle large ships. As soon as you start messing with AMC/missile/salvager/drain groups that add up to 50K blocks or more the StarMade code starts squirting out all over the place and ends up as a big brown smelly sludge running down your leg and filling your shoes. Accidentally flying any ship near a planet (or near a large ship) will reduce your frame rate by a factor of about 50 (e.g. 200 FPS down to 4 FPS). Worse if there\'s a large ship docked at a planet. If there\'s a large ship resting on a planet (not docked) then pray for mercy - it\'s probably faster to reset the universe and restore ship/s from catalogue than to wait for the next frame to be drawn.

    Now...

    A server is only ever smaller (\"better\") if less people use it; and single-player is the smallest (\"best!\") server possible?

    This definition of \"best\" is the opposite of what makes multi-player fun, and is the same as my definition of \"worst\". My definition of \"best\" would be the most number of people playing on the same server at the same time. In this case, ludicrously large ships are worse than pointless - they kill the game for everyone else.

    Ironically, \"ludicrously large ships that kill the game for everyone else\" and \"total number of people online at the same time\" are probably the 2 biggest causes of lag on NASS; and these are also likely to be the reasons (or the reasons for the reason) why DFN shifted to a different server; and these are also likely to be the reason why the new server will become as bad or worse than NASS as DFN start spawning in their large ships and building their large homeworlds/stations and increase the total number of players using the new server at the same time (and other people on that new server increase ship size and number of people online to avoid being \"insta-wiped\" in PvP).

    Mostly what I\'m saying here is that everyone knows \"bigger is better\" (and want bigger ships); and most people want lots of people online at once; and StarMade currently can not handle either situation well, and StarMade may never handle either situation well.

    Are there any entries for most turrets or things to look at? I\'d love to see the monstrocities people come up with there.

    CR wins on turrets. Owner will ban us if we use it in an offensive manner on Illusive. Way excessive force.

    at 2.5km (diametre) im fairly sure the EDEN would have been the lagest station around, only problem was that it was destroyed when some of the files got corrupted, not to mention that i really couldnt be bothered with building the 2500m x 2500m x 1250m glass dome

    You can\'t really know that, though, there were planetary factories on NASS before, witnessed by DFN once (or was it before their time ? dem Vaygr hmm ).



    DFN\'s thread wins for most spam and repeated posts though, no doubt there. Some members with 15 out of the 30 posts in a single page ^^



    Biggest ship atm (you should stop confusing \"projects\" with \"ships\", to qualify as a ship, it has to be built, not theoretical or just some hull/skeleton/half-done, unless it\'s already the biggest when half done/it\'s current state) would be Calbiri\'s Valhalla. There are also other competitors though. It should be investigated to avoid claiming winners with no real info on the existing ships.
