Also this keeps happening when I try to connect to Wolly's server:

Try killing Javaw under task manager processes. Usually works for me.
Also,
Buidling my first ship:

Planning on making it a stealth based ship without weapons, maybe later adding weapons if I feel like it.
Wollys server went kaput
is there any way to place a docking system on a base? for example: an outpost on an asteroid docking system
[QUOTE=Milkdairy;40485428]So uhh, How exactly do you get monies from pirates?
Do they drop some sort of loot or do you just salvage them[/QUOTE]
Both.
Money from loot, but you can usually salvage enough to build the ship you want (if patient).
ec-box.tk:4242 now operational once more.
Apologies.

dont know what you mean, does just putting it down not work?
Beginning work on an extremely large ship, plan on making it at least several km long.
Here's the core so far, which has its own shielding systems.

[QUOTE=Shadaez;40485268]I asked the dev on twitter
[editline]30th April 2013[/editline]
if I could, I would suggest that the maximum amount of gens be brought up to 512, so we can have an even cube
[editline]30th April 2013[/editline]
Wolly's break?[/QUOTE]
I would suggest using 512 blocks instead of 500, because that way you can jsut have a full 8x8x8 block and have the max
I feel like if a perfect 8*8*8 cube was allowed it would very obviously be the best choice, the odd dimensions make the perfect solutions less obvious. This is about density, not pure amount, though. If you want a cube 6*6*6 works.
edit:
also it's 300 not 500
What is missile distance in? Because it's sure as hell not metres like it is with cannons. A 90 distance missile can hit a target at 1km, and still keep spinning around the target for a minute if it gets blown up before it arrives.
Is there any way of entering a ship without having to go through miles if armor plated corridors just to reach the core?
[QUOTE=Wickerman123;40487074]Is there any way of entering a ship without having to go through miles if armor plated corridors just to reach the core?[/QUOTE]
A tiny 1x2 corridor with plex doors reaching down to core?
it'd be neat if explosions weren't a perfect sphere generator and instead took the armour into account and had a bit of randomness, and hell, it'd be amazing if missiles would blast more directional holes into things

Randomness is bad for PvP

the borg cube
just look at it
It'd be nice if the hardened grey and black blocks were, in fact, grey and black.
Working on one of my ship's 1km long hallways, may be up to 2.5 km long, still deciding how big to make the ship.

You can always edit your blocks :)

doing it
I find that the way I'm currently playing(pretty much roaming for pirates, killing them then strapping pretty much everything from it onto my ship) reminds me of a certain anime, the game just needs drills now.
So I left my ship near sun for 13h. Front was nearly touching the center of it. This is result:

Before that it looked like this:

whoever designed that speedy little purple fuck pirate on vagax's server can go fuck himself, that thing is so hard to catch :v: Was satisfying to finally nail its engines with a wellplaced shot though.

Is there a way to like cover an entire area with a specific block or is that all hand placed.
Would there happen to be a demo? I'd like to try but I'm afraid of spending money on something I'll ultimately never play again.

Everything's free right now. Don't even have to make an account.

If you play on Windows, hold Left CTRL, if you are playing on Mac hold "-". It opens advanced build mode where you can set mirror planes and choose box dimension. This way you can build bigger things much faster.
I was making a pretty badass starfighter.

[B]BUT THEN I REALIZED I BUILT IT BACKWARDS[/B]
Example of how would look Ironmans spaceship if he had one.
[QUOTE=TextQUAKE;40487404]Randomness is bad for PvP[/QUOTE]
nah not the actual damage output, but within the blast radius, variation as to where damage is applied would be neat
though I guess if/when armour actually resists explosions, maybe a raycasting explosion model could be used so that armour can shield stuff behind it (depending on the strength of that armour), and because of that, the results wont be hemispherical eyesores
[QUOTE=Crimor;40487841]Is there a way to like cover an entire area with a specific block or is that all hand placed.[/QUOTE]In advanced build mode with symmetrycal placement and 10x10x10 it can go fast.
