SkyCorp WarpGate

[SkylordLuke]

my new warp gate is looking great! its still WIP
its 350mx350x150
looots of power and shields,and a small screen for you to see its destination

still have to add lots of small details and more colors

 

[Planr]

oh thats really cool dude!

i bet comr4de is drooling in envy right now...

 

[Comr4de]

I'm here to confirm that I am NOT drooling in envy however my dick is at half mast

 

[Planr]

ok com you earned yourself one rainbow rating from planr

 

[Crimson-Artist]

fantastic idea for the destination display. Looking good so far

 

[jstenholt]

Here comes good ol' Luke, putting us all to shame again. Fantastic looking build so far, friend.

 

[ToyotaSupra]

And the stargate submissions begin. What a great start, too.

We might end up with a competition to have canon in game gates, like with the ships and stations.

This thing would be cut from such a contest due to size murdering anyone who does not use the best of computers.

 

[NeonSturm]

You use ONLY 4 NUMBERS now as we have JUMP GATES ??? :D

I like the shape and all, though I am a greater fan a of red or green and dark or dirty look. Nice work
(SM-Edit?)

 

[TwoNiner]

Holy hell that's one amazing looking gate.

 

[SkylordLuke]

thank you guys!!! means a lot to see your support :p
its actually only 250k blocks,and 350x350x150m so its not that big,but i see your concern
and 4 numbers in enough for default since the range is 128 sectors,so even if servers increase the range to 9999 sectors,you can write the destination,but i think i might expand that to 7 numbers or more :p

EDIT* no SMedit,legit build

Just : why did you not think about the poor admins which are using /change_sector 10'000 and make a jump gate there, call it Pegasus-Galaxy or Andromeda-Galaxy?


You could display the 3 coordinates in different places. left right bottom and use one for distance... if you like that (with 7 numbers you would need a lot of space for these numbers)

*neon-thoughts* 7 is no power of 2 :/

I respectfully disagree. My meh laptop was able to load in a 700k mass ship without any problems. Surely it would be able to load in a 350 diameter gate! Seriously, the occuling (or whatever it's called) that was added in the last patch does miracles.

I have not gotten to mess with the gates much yet. If you place a faction block on a gate, does it keep other players from using the gate?

 

[NeonSturm]

My problem is that I don't know jet the standard sizes.
Thus how big ships will be.
Thus how big gates should be.
Very discouraging - I prefer for myself small things which don't take forever to fill with details

So build what fits you. That is what I'm doing on my server. I'm going to make the gates in my network 250m high x 200 wide. If someone wants to use them, they better build to fit!

To get back on track.....Love the gate. I am totally stealing your destination display idea

 

[Saber]

I mean....it's okay.....I guess..... lol looks great man, the screen giving the destination is particularly clever. =)

 

[Lecic]

Nice gate. Got nothing on the 1KM gate, though.
