As of right now there are no gear assemblies in the game and no known plans to implement such.

Discord is a thing.

Let me elaborate. I'll tell you a story. So listen up, sit down and grab a snack. The Church of Pip have received info on the location of a base full of herepips that refuse to join the Chruch. (Oh and this would be very hard without a coord system, which we don't have, meaning directions will...

Sure hope that's not sprinting speed.

The rendering distance is the same for everyone and cannot be changed.

I think I might have missed something, what are the changes?

I'm not sure if the holographic displays are able to be installed on ships, and if so, I'm sure they're not meant for anything other than advertising. I don't think we need any sort of holographic designer.

advanced gates like that require cameras to be put on different sides, which complicates it greatly and puts a strain on pc resources, but goddamn does it look good when done right.

I don't want to fly whatever the hell requires that many buttons.

And if there's any way to get emergent gameplay, I'm all for it. Hacking, sneaking onto the ship, anything- I really enjoy reactive gameplay. On the topic of hacking, what do you think if there was a way to remotely (relatively, from like 10-5m distance) hack into device fields and change them?

I think replacing them would be an even better idea than making them be able to be recoded.

Cheeky you.

Oh corrosive status basically means "burning", it only applies to damage by flamethrower and/or explosives. Not acid, sadly. And yes, there's armored glass already in the game which I'm guessing is more like a seethrough plate in that it's more strudy.

It's all up to you and how you do it is your decision completely.

Fair enough. Let's wait and see then!

You'd have to get a bit more creative. You can check if a wire or a tube is damaged by looking at how fast it loses fuel/electricity. Basically, we don't need sensors for damage if we can have a system that checks if a wire that runs through the wing is still intact or not.

Sorry to attack you so quick. As far as we know, fuel and electricity doesn't exist outside of numbers on a screen when that screen is connected to a reactor. Has no physical behavior, therefore can't really interact with glass too much. Kinetic glass might be interesting, although I can't see...

But then again, this system pretty much forces the defenders to log on during the vulnerable times, no matter how good the rest of the system is that's a big flaw, as explained by Rec's last post.

I agree on this device needing to exist, but there also needs to be some sort of way of hacking it. Maybe there's a way to instert a different data storage device to "re-bind" the ship to a different owner, or using some expensive hacking chip, or literally smash it with the stock of a gun.

There's no need for this. The only reason you'd ever want a thermal-proof glass is for the flamethrower, which won't be used against ships anyways. Useless. Kinetic? We don't have gravity. Useless. Acidic? Fuel isn't acidic. Useless. Electric? Electricity can't escape outside of the wires...
