That and/or making astrotechs repairing the ship to the design in the ship core. I could just go on and on about that. Therefore, please consider the spoiler:
to find out how]) to replace blocks on the ship. It would have a punch-through beam effect that would heal all blocks in a line(and maybe an area effect too). However, when it placed blocks it would place then with one hitpoint, and AI would replace all blocks in an area(decided by the program? If you piloted it it would do where you pointed it? Give me your opinions) before starting to heal them. This would mean if you got hit by a missile you could call in support drones to heal you, but risk getting hit with another weapon that could be very weak that would destroy all of your newly placed blocks. It would also look really cool, like a scab or something glowing red as repair drones healed it.
Recently we've re-addressed our development timeline with regards to dependencies etc and found that a lot of what was initially mentioned as things that would be added in over the next few months in this thread have now been pushed back due to the number of other dependencies that have to work the way we want them to. It does highlight though that we should probably do an updated thread speaking on development timelines again.It's been a while since this thread was started almost 8 months ago. Wow! Just wow! only 2 of the 10 features listed have been implemented. At this rate we'll hit Beta within the millennia!
I apologize for the snarky comment, but I'm just SOOOOOooooo tired of waiting
I for one would be most pleased to hear another 'state-of-the-starmade' type dev blog that gives us a re-outline of whats coming with fresh timetables.
There isn't a power in the 'verse that could keepMy two cents worth...
I have little patience for impatience. If getting SM released sooner means it becomes a bad clone of a poorly thought-out game we have all played before then I'll wait. I urge Bench and the team at Schine to have faith in their vision and in the gamer community. I am always glad to hear that there is a critical path being followed and that Schine has a good handle on what needs to be done before fancy new feature can be implemented. It gives me confidence that the devs are planning this thoughtfully and not just responding to every whim and request of it's 'enthusiastic' community. Stay the course folks, we have your back.
from staying true to himself and putting out a quality game.
