    Hello Schema.
    I hope it would not be too much of us to ask you to try and focus a tad more on optimisation for the next update?
    Especially optimising the collision detection system.

    Still loving the game, so just keep on going!

    There is some optimization to collision in this update. It's of course not something that would instantly get rid of all the load from huge structures but it should already help a bit
    Yes I noticed.
    But I'm worried about the current state of the game. Multiplayer is not really relliable enough to play on and having fights with with turrets active brings everyone down to 1frame per second.

    So if you would be so kind to try and find some time from adding awesome features to look at bit more on some serious optimisation then I think a lot of people in your playerbase would be really happy.

    Woooo! Shipyards! Time to replace the decorative shipyards on my stations with functional ones.

    I have some more plans for optimizations already to cut down on the load. There are still a lot of things that can be done especially in such special cases like turrets.
    I'm looking forward to those.
    Especially as I really want to play around on servers without a mile high ping. That and I really want this game to stay alive.

    Badass update. I wonder if in the future it would be possible to ditch the ship anchor block and just center the ship inside the yard module's dimensions?

    This is an incredible update! StarMade is going to new heights with this, imho.
