    resurect starbase

    Yeah, I still read the forums :D The doomsayer pattern seems to be that they want some immediate, cheap remedy which would maybe add a week more of playing for them, usually by burning a lot of remaining people with it, and then the game would be finally killed off for good. And if I dare to...

    Ore is not transferred from the ship to the station

    Your ship inventory may have ghost ores. If this is the case, double-click transfer deleted ghost ores, as does deleting the ores itself. After this the inventory works again.

    resurect starbase

    Most of the issues are real and hurting the game at the moment. However, we are solving them the proper way, not with hot glue. Proper fixes take time. In general, we will stick to the vision presented in the roadmap, as we believe that will lead to long-term success. In short term it sucks, as...

    State of SB - An Alpha player's point of view.

    I actually read the forums, I just don't comment every assumption since I feel actually implementing the features/fixes is much better. All of your concerns have been noted and will be addressed in some form in the game. We are not running away with money but providing service for years to come.

    A beautiful HUD

    This is on our list (and mockups have been done), unfortunately our list is quite long so it has been delayed. But definitely coming at some point :D

    Stations disappointing?

    PTU already has larger stations, and it's still going to be much larger from that. Weekly progress notes outline the progress as well.

    Easy Build Mode Makes Me Cry

    SSC with EBM modules and ability to choose a toolset which works best with that (but all tools are available). We also have to solve how you take the ship/station out from there, but most likely it just uses the modules from inventory (and requires some delay if the blueprint was just...

    Easy Build Mode Makes Me Cry

    EBM was always planned to be just first step leading to SSC, unfortunately things got delayed and we are not quite yet there. However, all EBM modules come to SSC too, including station and capital ship building. Also initial experience will guide players to SSC once it works.

    PTU Update 28.9.2021 (PTU Build 633)

    There's actually already support for this, it's just disabled for the intial testing phase. There's also room to increase the limits, both item limit per area and amount of build areas. Most likely the limits will be adjusted already based on PTU feedback (and PTU siege tests at least). For...

    PTU Update 28.9.2021 (PTU Build 633)

    We have now ore spawning mostly done, but that and moon ground deform server still needs some work. However on bigger picture Capital Ships first version is hitting PTU within next two large patches, so the large updates are on average coming nicely. Once capital ships are in we can also start...

    Starbase Progress Notes: Week 38 (2021)

    Endo box is actually more grim than it looks: it contains the inventory of a dead endo. So players will be dropping these when they die. That's the plan. You can actually edit current GUI already by right-clicking the UI elements and choosing edit. (you need to hold tab or press tab to enable...

    Where are the asteroids?

    There was a large asteroid respawn a week ago. The most respawns happened to a straight line away from each origin station towards the belt.

    I am Just going to say this Once FB

    I'll comment on random snippets: Many of the hardest parts of our technology are pvp-focused; that is for a reason: pvp has massive focus in the final game. Currently there's not much pvp or pvp players since there's none of the features needed Pvp is not going anywhere and generally speaking...

    I am Just going to say this Once FB

    Cheers for the support :D I agree with the time consumption, and currently game is not what it is intended to be in that sense. Automation and capital ships should pave the way for more controlled losses in the final game, and allow also brief but fun play sessions.

    Two changes to save on F1 tickets and make stations viable

    We are working on despawning and spawning ships at player stations. Also SSC and repairs halls coming to player stations.

    EA Update 17.9.2021 (EA Build 616)

    To our best knowledge, yes*. *It's also known that our knowledge is very limited and more often than not stations and factory halls have proven to explode for no reason at all.

    Does playerbase care about easy-build mode?

    EBM unfortunately launched with a lot of bugs and it's still missing a ton of features, namely the seamless integration to the actual ship designer. It was always designed to be the gateway to the actual designer. EBM is similarly gateway to stations and capital ships, although for them it...

    Is pilot vulnerability intended feature?

    The boltcrackers memorial in the moon city features actual ships from the tournament, they can be looked for inspiration about pilot protection (back in the medieval days at least).

    I am Just going to say this Once FB

    A griefer is someone whose pure intention is to bully someone to quit the game. Unhealthy pvp is where the intention is not to get the targets to quit but they do so nevertheless. Unhealty pve is where pvp'rs quit (due not being able to pvp at all). Some games have enough pve content to...
