    Hi, all!

    I am pretty new to this game (thanks to Yogscast) and totally love it! I would like to know if it is possible to share saves across different computers.

    I have a desktop computer at home that I do most of my gaming on, but I also have a nice laptop that I take with me to work and on vacations. I have installed StarMade on both of them.

    So far, I have only played on Sandbox mode and have created a few cool ships (at least I think they are cool... see my Recognizer - http://star-made.org/content/recognizer in the screenshot forum!). I would like to know if it is possible to transfer the ships I have created on my desktop computer to my laptop so I can continue to build them while on the go. I know in Minecraft, I can simply drop the folder with the name of the world save right into a flash drive and transfer it that way without having to transfer everything else like texture packs.

    We have a 6-hour drive coming up for the 4th of July and I will need something to kill a lot of time for the parts of the trip where my wife is driving.

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    The easiest way is to run a dedicated server off the machine whos universe you want to keep and log into that machine from another local machine. The wiki has details on how to do that under multiplayer: http://wiki.starmade.rtag.me/wiki/index.php?title=Multiplayer

    Check out the rest of the wiki too. Some neat stuff in there. Good luck and thanks for playing Star-Made!
