[QUOTE=<man>;42599350] The reactor. I placed small thrusters towards each side resulting in a neat energy effect. [t]http://i.imgur.com/ENA66vF.jpg[/t] [/QUOTE] This is far better than using pillars, stolen!

[QUOTE=ijyt;42599515]Good question, but I'm assuming top speed.[/QUOTE] Hmmmm. Okay, cause, if that [I]is[/I] top speed... then instead of making a big ole spear with engines on it... make a spear, and then a separate, superfast engine block, and push the spear. With reactors, engines, and gyros off on the spear, if I'm understanding this correctly its just a floating object, which should be free from speed restrictions.

It won't travel faster than 100~ m/s

[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;42599508]The update was like 5 MB, I doubt much has changed.[/QUOTE] 5mb can be a lot of code.

They just reverted the patch. Said it was to fix audio errors, but it only created more.

I never knew there was any audio in the game?

Same. Game music is nice, but I have, like, my own.

[video=youtube;tGUeZq7PIm0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGUeZq7PIm0&feature=youtu.be[/video] I walk around my ship, then crash it into the red ship and break the collision detection.

Holy crap that was a huge amount of damage done to it. Love the bit where you walk down the corridor just goes all black smoke, that was almost some sci-fi horror shit right there

It probably wasn't intentional, but they should totally add light flickering for impacts and damage.

[QUOTE=NoDachi;42600026]It probably wasn't intentional, but they should totally add light flickering for impacts and damage.[/QUOTE] I hope they will focus on details later when the important parts like weapons and multiplayer are sorted out. Things like debris, effects, gibbing, random part failure (including lights) etc.

Gotta say, the Flood lights are the best way to do open spaces like that, they actually add a fair bit of ambiance.

Also, reflectors tend to eat your FPS. I'm using Reflectors in my reactor room. There are total of 6 or 10 reflectors, don't remember exact number now, to mimic foggy/smoky ambience. Once reflectors turns on, FPS drops really hard. Gonna check tomorrow what is my average FPS and what's with reflectors on.

[quote]Change log - 01.002.009, 2013-10-21 - fixed startup audio issues - fixed crash when cockpit is removed from ships and stations - fixed crash during deformation - fixed refresh rate issues - fixed crash when dragging items to toolbar - fixed crash with occlusion queries - fixed filesystem unsufficient permission crash - fixed render crash after longer play - fixed crash in physics when updating shape of light - fixed crash when leaving ladder - fixed saving issues and crashes - fixed cockpit drawing when cockpit was visible through other geomerty (after leaving it) - fixed large thrust physics shape - precise building mode (building in full interiors is easier) - fixed disconnecting small thrust on small ships - more visible object highlight - fixed crash when assigning controls in options - fixed crash when removing block from large station or ship - fixed rare crash when building using CTRL key[/quote] patch is out again. I like these devs. "Oh we're actually ahead of our steam release scheduled so come buy it early" "Oh we broke the patch we'll have it back up tomorrow" one hour later "okay we done"

Man, the deformed corridors in blazing's video are so damn cool. [editline]21st October 2013[/editline] I missed the last buy window :(

worked 2 hours on my station, added a construction bay for ship building so i can finally start building a small ship tomorrow [img_thumb]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/541848736651931866/E28B7E76EBB5DBAB61220F0FCBC9EACC3A3E8AA7/[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/541848736651940570/7EE9BA6F746EBC557419CC788A189EEEB6BBAC50/[/img_thumb] its blocky but i cant imagine any other way of doing a construction bay, still need to add more windows and lights and its all good to go

Ehhhhh... A for effort?

gee thanks :(

Try using some of the interior wall blocks and covering those with the armor blocks. Gets you that neat liney look on the outside with a more sensible look on the inside.

In addition to my other post, I would like to state that I expect a very in depth power system. Things like limits on the amount of power a conduit could carry, and if other rooms with many different systems that require multiple conduits loose some conduits, I would expect lights flickering, Systems shutting down/malfunctioning and doors to be unresponsive/malfunctioning (like dead space 1) This of course would mean nothing without the content in my other post. I just hope that I can feel like an actual engineer when I face the derelict ship that is in disrepair from a major catastrophe. *cough* deadspace *cough* [editline]21st October 2013[/editline] It would also be cool to see lights and systems react accordingly to power fluctuation. Perhaps have (some) lights shatter/burst at a sudden major power draining system cut off from the main ship. You know, the shit that gives you the feels that what is happening to your ship DOES matter, that you cant loose your right engine thruster pod and not have your ship react accordingly.

[QUOTE=Furnost;42601151]gee thanks :([/QUOTE] A for execution and A for beauty

Here it is folks, I have added more to the interior so far it only has, a forward operation center which is located on the top deck, it has a fighter bay, Engineering and Cargo bay I am currently working on Medical, Secondary Command Center, and more general crap for crew will post updates as I get them done.

Holy shitttt that hangar is beautiful. [editline]21st October 2013[/editline] I'd ram my ship into that hangar any day. :v:
