Thank you very much to @BlackHawk for inspiring me to make this video / ship blueprint combo. I hope that all of you who are struggling with getting your first ship done can use this as a learning tool. :)

That's plenty fair. I'd just like to get the idea out there while I remember it (I kept forgetting over these past few days).

Main Point Make the "Who is nearby" 'o' button optional to be displayed on so that pirates (and their prey) can go undetected, and so that people can hang out semi-anonymously. Problem Currently, anybody can know when anybody else is nearby just by pressing 'o'. This undermines pirate's ability...

Yeah, I'm' fine with that. The balancing tools were just examples.

That's a big one to be off by. :) Ooo, this is big. I look forward to the huge ships coming soon. They'll just have to watch out for that pipe limit. Does this look anything like my idea (which may have actually been your idea): Finally. I'd rather not embarrass myself again by getting into...

For ease of development, couldn't the current thrusters be used but have different component variations that provide different amounts of thrust, effectively filling many roles in the same form-factor. Maybe you could have really expensive parts that push way harder than their cheaper...

Is this tech for new nozzle types and/or just meaning that if they are damaged, then the thrust output decreases?

Recently, there have been changes ... to the damage model and as far as I know, there is not any updated info on how the new armor behaves besides the recent events anecdotally. I think it's proportional. As in more weight requires an increase in thrust proportional to the increase in weight...

Currently, just floating up to them if they aren't moving works plenty well. Not to toot my own horn, but I boarded Kodey's multi-crew submarine and was able to take the bridge with no ship of my own or anything but hand weapons. Toot Toot: Link to video example On a more serious note, I think...

Would it be possible for Odysee to be added to the list of supported media insertions? Both me and @Softwerker use that platform for our videos in addition to Youtube. It would help us out while not costing the forum-goers anything. If it's any help, here's an example of an embedded video with...

In an attempt to get a bit more technical with these videos, I've begun to take on more of the building mechanics, starting with the data/power networks.

Firstly, thanks for your considered response. This is what I was trying to address with the acceleration stress system, but not to your satisfaction it seems. 😅 I seem to have done a poor job at describing the situation I was suggesting. I think all of these points are directly related to...

Preface Following the discussino in @kiiyo 's thread about adding medium, long thrusters, I came up with this idea to help add room for creativity when it comes to thrusters. Also, I'd like to note that this change could work better in conjunction with another suggestion I made, see addendum...

You've given me an idea for a suggestion, I'll make a new post for it to not detract from this medium long thruster discussion. Thanks.

I could see there being sound mods that change or "improve" the game sounds to fit a player's desires, maybe they want the lasers to sound like star wars blasters? As long as the mods don't give any advantages (so only audio/visual) then I could see there being a small market for it.

I think there are some good ideas in here. I like the idea of modular thrusters (we do already have that with the plasma thrusters), and the search for solutions that don't limit creativity. However, I'm worried that this approach is more of a band-aid than a solution for the underlying issue...

Those screenshots are looking sweet, I'll have to build myself a moon lander to go take some of my own.

How will you be collecting the opinion? You're almost there, just post more on the forums.

Combat montage that shows both the good... and not so good parts of Starbase PvP.

So far, I'd say that only ships smaller than capital ships will be viable. There may be some capital ships as flagships just to show the power of factions, but they wouldn't really be used for combat. Being small or just a fighter with oodles of armor seems to be most effective right now. Maybe...
