Honestly starmade seems to be the one with the most frequent updates/content so..
Starmade seems to be the one that is technically most advanced.
But personally, I like Corneroids look and feel the most...
block-based starship games are the new space race
this is how my first ship looked like :v:

This seems really fuckin' neat. Gonna check it out.

Is it possible to add AI as detachable things on your ship? It would be neat to be able to fire them off as little automated drones.
There are AI cores in the game and people have mentioned something about using AI wingmen so yeah, I think you're right.
Also sorry for blowing you up Mald :C
This is like all my dreams for Garry's Mod Spacebuild turned into a real game
Just lost 4 hours into this game. I built a fairly large ship, the pirates disapear in one missile, and I can generally rip through the entire hull of a ship with one blast of my laser things.
Killing pirates seems like the most rewarding thing because they drop shit tons of loot most of the time. I have some where over 2 billion credits and more material than I know what to do with. I'm forcing myself not to go on right now to build a bigger and better ship because I know I'll lose at least a few more hours.
For an alpha, this is pretty good, but the build interface is wonky, and takes a lot of getting used to, and even then is still wonky. I guess that's space, but I want a little more work done on this obviously.
Flying huge ships gets obnoxious because you have some very weird turning feels and you get lost very easily. Multiple cockpits should be able to provide me multiple views in small windows or something similar to that perhaps. Also, I feel like a 2x1 wide cockpit would be really useful, because I wouldn't feel so offset in my designs that aren't in odd numbers.
looks pretty strange.
But i will try it!

I was going to build it vertical, but it was far easier to build out.
And then I wedged it in there, it started spazzing out and I died.
Some guy called Canary has been killing people in spawn.

Will ban them.
Im so sorry for blowing you up with heat seekers gufu D:
Also I still have no idea how stations work, cant connect docks to them like you can ships so idk.
I think once mald moves to the new server im going to make a ship just covered in ai turrets
Yay another space game! Downloadered
I don't normally have time to play games like this, but I'm going to make time for this one.
My ship is getting pretty damn big.
that server I was on was so laggy I have no idea what was going on. I got out of my ship and everything was gone

someone in a big triangle ship blew my ship up and salvaged all of it up, while I was 1 km away helpless in my space suit
This game doesn't work for me, where do I go/who do I contact to troubleshoot?

Ensure your drivers are up to date
Looks very interesting, downloading it now to try it!
I hosted a server, but my friend (on LAN) says he keeps skipping around and teleporting. I have a very high end computer. What could be causing this?
Your internet connection?
Also I got the game working.
this game is pretty hard, how do you even get credits? I shot some pirate ship for literally 10 minutes expecting to get some loot or something but nothing. I'm just kinda stuck with all the stock stuff you start with
Anybody know how to set a server up on this?
Fishing around in the cfg's, I can't find anywhere to set a server port or IP.
[QUOTE=Cakebatyr;40353384]What would be cool is if we could gather the materials to build a space elevator out of a planet's gravity well. Dock our ships and climb down the bean stalk.[/QUOTE]
You actually CAN do this

Pirate ship drops are broken right now, they drop way too much. Just keep killing them until you get some items dropped from them, you have to get out of your ship to get them. Or just find space stations or planets and harvest them with beams, then sell the goods.
Just started this game and already the game feels like it's borked.
Are ships not allowed more than 1 weapon system or something? Anytime I try to add anything other than Anti-matter cannon to my ship it just doesn't register (yes, I have the specific weapons computer for the weapons on the ship too).

Bad internet connection.
So what are resources used for right now, just selling them for credits? I've got a shitton of ore but the closest shop is far as shit.

You have to select the computer you want to attach your weapon to (I'm not sure how, I had the same problem, after I installed a harvesting computer, I couldn't switch back to the weapon computer to put on new cannons.) So it's not that the game is borked as much as I just don't know how to change the selection of computer.
Also keep in mind the game is still very new and it already has some good stuff. Landing on planets is really awesome.

What you want to do before you lay down weapons is find that computer, look at it, select it by hitting "C" and then laying down your weapon based blocks. Then you want to hit "T" and press "1" on your weapon selection.

If you're having problems, go to the starmade website and go to the irc/chat. Ask them, I cannot help you with everything
Also, here is the wiki if you have other things you'd like to learn about the game.

Theres an entire community and website people. You need to use it.
It seems the most efficient shape for a ship has to be some sort of warped spear shape. I found my Anti-matter cannon firing like a machine gun for insane amounts of damage one I just fit the center of my ship with a 30-long cannon stack.
It's like a god damn railgun.
