spaceships

This post was born from a discussion in the main discord's #alpha-feedback channel. The discussion happened on April 1st, around 3:30PM GMT if anyone would like to find it and read it for themselves. The general statement is as follows: Smaller, more powerful and potentially modular thrusters...

In many 3D software, press F to focus on the selected object (or focus on the entire scene if nothing is selected) I think this can be really useful in the Spaceship Designer

Hey, everyone! One of the things that I'm looking forward to most from this game is the ship design. More specifically, the design for the most effective and deadly combat ships possible! So, out of boredom given the quarantine, I thought I'd take a shot at predicting the optimal forms that some...

So I have been very busy recently posting on these forums about various aspects of ship design including stealth. Now Frozenbyte have said it is very unlikely stealth tech will ever appear in Starbase which means different solutions such as camouflage would have to be used to conceal a ship...

As seen in the Starbase FAQ Cloaking stealth technology is probably not going to be added to the game but since you can paint your spaceship this allows for different types of camouflage. Now my question is what sort of camouflage would be better: Dazzle, dark colours to blend into space, using...

With the missile video Froxenbyte has shown both missiles and torpedoes which I imagine will be quite expensive to offset the ability to track and follow ships so how practical would it be to have a fast attack craft armed with torpedoes and maybe bow mounted missiles for greater accuracy with...

With the YOLOL and other devices in the game I would imagine it would be possible to link a number of batteries (each containing several powerful weapons such as rail cannons or plasma throwers) to a single turret manned by one player. As such you could have large ships with a comparatively...

Hey all, so this is a bit of an odd thread I decided to start. But I thought it would be a nice topic to think about: Are there any ships you can think of that will serve as your inspiration for ship construction? They can be from a simple piece of artwork, an actual ship you see or hear about...

Hola. I thought about Ship Armor quite a bit. Spaced Armor is definitly possible but what about composite or ERA armor? Taking a look at tanks might help. What do you guys think about it?
