    Game generation bugs of infinite galaxies (and worlds)

    Not sure what the general consensus is, but personally I actually like little world gen quirks like this so long as they don't really break anything. If it makes something inaccessible, sure, it's bad and should be removed. But if it's just an area where asteroids generate in a set pattern, or a...

    What is this sorcery??

    Not yet they won't, sadly. Early Access is planned sometime around the end of 2020, maybe early 2021. Your best bet right now is to sign up for Closed Alpha and join and contribute to the Starbase Discord.

    Other games of the genre. What would you like to be borrowed, or not.

    Space Engineers' player and armor block skins. Basically, armor skins were special textures you could apply to your ship's blocks in the same way you paint them. It let you make a ship look rusty, overgrown, frosted over, or even change what material it looks like. You could make a wooden...

    Programmable and customisable screens

    This would be a great feature. YOLOL coders would have a field day with something like this!

    VoIP do we need it?

    That's kind of a weird thought process. With that logic, there's no point adding pvp just to add safe zones, no point adding the ship designer just to add ship shops, no point adding space just to add stations, etc. And again, the characters make weird robot sounds and the game is too dynamic to...

    Great progress as always! I'm looking forward to seeing how the mining lasers and explosive charges work.

    Purpose of Personal Rooms Inside Lots and Stations

    I think the best way to handle personal rooms in station lots (or possibly even ships, if that's ever possible) would be to keep it simple. Bed-like recharging stations that slowly repair damage done to Endo parts, maybe with some "medical" equipment like heart-rate core-rate scanners to...

    Beam welding with shims and wedges, and plate welding with shims and wedges along with polygon plate packing.

    I'm not sure how doable this would be in game, but I would absolutely love to see it in regardless. The restrictive rectangle-only beams and plating is one of my main problems with the ship building in SB. Just look at ships like the Nebulon-B/Einstien's Demon, or really any ship that tries to...

    Clothing styles and Armor Inventory

    My guess is it's based on how the weapon equipping works. So you can equip a small weapon like a pistol/revolver and its ammo to each of your legs and a larger weapon like a rifle/flamer and their ammo to your hands. Extra ammo seems to go on your chest. I wonder how much of it actually appears...

    VoIP do we need it?

    Well, beyond the fact the robots make weird machine noises instead of speaking, are you really sure that would work in a game like starbase? This whole game is designed around dynamic gameplay, a set of cookie cutter voice emotes could never match every scenario. That's not even mentioning the...

    Clothing styles and Armor Inventory

    The "accessory" slots are actually slots for the different pieces of the limbs. You can see in this video from Frozenbyte's channel, the devs add limbs to their endo and the smaller slots in the limb slots seem to be for the individual armor bits that make up the limbs. I think by "16 changeable...
