StarMade v0.199.349 - NPC Faction Update

[DukeofRealms]

the NPC update has so badly broken the economy that you can barely play starmade at this point.

As Jojomo has mentioned, please contribute your thoughts on the impact of the NPC Update in this thread NPC update resources and maintenance now give live economies? . We're always interested in reading feedback on a newly released feature, that's what open alpha development is about, player feedback.

It lags like hell.. I place one block and it lags for like 6 seconds, and the entire game runs on 15 FPS

Stock response incoming:

This is a bit ambiguous. Did you send in a bug report on this? are you on a server, or single player? Are you on a new world? How many entities are loaded right now? How big is your ship vs. max sector size? Are you doing something that worked well in the past? Have you tried warping to an empty sector?

If you want a solution, you'll need to be specific. If you just want to complain, than by all means carry on.

I didn't sent a bug report, but I surely will.. I am on a server, yes the server got a wipe after the new update, I seriously don't know how many entities there are on the server, and I have like 20 blocks ship, and yes: I am building power regenerators one by one, and I am in an empty sector

will the bug for unable to salvage fleet ships be addressed? seems without the ability to farm and profit its more fight npc to fight npcs.

I have a request. I'm not expecting it. This is a at will request. For those of us that download and update the Dev Build regularly it would be nice to be able to see a news post as to what was changed or added or tweaked in that particular update release. finding bugs for that particular update would be a lot easier and faster if we all knew what to look for in advance. Thank you for your time and have a good day.

So, I have a stupid question, that hasn't been raised in here yet, but may be on somewhere else, so maybe just point my stupid face at that thread.

The blueprints now have 'roles' but is there anywhere where these roles are defined? I wanted to make a fleet pack for NPC factions to be able to use, but it seems I ought to figure out what all the roles are specifically, so that I know, for example, whether to give my scout a tiny salvage section or not, and whether support ships should only have 'supply beams' and so on.

Thanks
