[QUOTE=damnatus;45797746]Wait what is that dual pitch rotor thing and why is it good for turrets Oh it's about using two rotors for axii instead of one[/QUOTE] i think it has some effect on stability rather than doing the usual one axis rotor. atleast it looks more sturdier! i also finally figured out how he made the pitch thing without leaving mergeblocks behind. which took an embarrassingly long time..

I pressed I and K at the same time on my refinery, and my game crashed. Uh, shit

[QUOTE=Silly Sil;45792953]Can you delete items or the best you can do is to throw them away and reduce number of objects for a moment?[/QUOTE] Explosions destroy floating objects,learned this when I was trying to make a shrapnel bomb with a crate full of rocks and explosives.

[QUOTE=GreenLeaf;45796796]-hugepost on capital guns-[/QUOTE] I've been looking at a way to remodel all my capital ships guns to be more functional, and this seems like the perfect method

has anyone ever tried to make a modular fighter with weapon and fuel pods to make the fighter lighter and more maneuverable should the situation arise?

[QUOTE=Dr.C;45801744]has anyone ever tried to make a modular fighter with weapon and fuel pods to make the fighter lighter and more maneuverable should the situation arise?[/QUOTE] At first I thought that would be impractical because the size of merge blocks Then I remembered I needed to design a new small utility ship Then a few good ideas chained together for once and I got this: [t]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/46480656336984044/5F19D8D24BFC2355126E088619935CCE2391C834/[/t] so youre welding stuff up and suddenly you need to grind somthing. Do you hop out of your ship and use your dinky little hand grinder? switch ships? fly back and switch out the side pods for grinders? hell no. You hit 3 buttons and BAM [t]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/46480656336985882/47C24688C174C2CA8F7CA1503A9E029B2B837020/[/t] [t]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/46480656336986897/450865FF03EC46DDF16F22AD5874F73689F03B1C/[/t] [t]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/46480656336988021/05C3D456586B4B87AADB86C621C4616AFFF8074F/[/t] Both pods flip around, you just re-lock the connector and grind that shit out. Ill polish it up and make some weapon pods tomorrow. Probably just guns on front and more thrusters on back. [editline]26th August 2014[/editline] And build an armored hull

I dabbled with modular fighter craft shortly before i switched from my Adder fighter line to my Ultimatum fighter line. Ultimately proved ugly, fat, and ineffective in the sense that it wasnt any better than anything i already had. In the end i ditched the protos and designed the Mk.I Ultimatum.

So the reason I have to deal with large quantities of stone is because I've made this semi automated mining platform. [img]http://s13.postimg.org/v2zp3j77b/Space_Engineers_2014_08_26_11_06_00_607_Final_Scre.png[/img] The arm is on a rotor obviously. [img]http://s13.postimg.org/9s24z9p2v/Space_Engineers_2014_08_26_11_06_26_608_Final_Scre.png[/img] Stuff drops from the arm into the platform. [img]http://s13.postimg.org/417d7srp3/Space_Engineers_2014_08_26_11_06_46_059_Final_Scre.png[/img] Then from the platform into a long conveyor. [img]http://s13.postimg.org/xo0odb77b/Space_Engineers_2014_08_26_11_08_20_109_Final_Scre.png[/img] Which in turn drops the stuff to my main ship which is just a bunch of containers/refineries/assemblers for now. [img]http://s13.postimg.org/9uhf8d3cn/Space_Engineers_2014_08_26_11_07_20_194_Final_Scre.png[/img] Every full turn you have to detach it, convert to ship, move 1 block forward and attach it again. Which is a pain in the ass but it's still much better than anything I've made so far for mining. After I'm through the asteroid I'll leave it with that tunnel in there and go for a another one and try a longer arm this time.

Had to tweak the design quite a bit because the first one kept on blowing itself up and drilling holes in the structure itself. It'll probably satisfy my ore needs in survival for quite a while

Is the debug menu disabled? I haven't been able to open it for a long time.

[QUOTE=Binladen34;45808312]Is the debug menu disabled? I haven't been able to open it for a long time.[/QUOTE] For some reason it only works if your game's set to "Offline", won't even work if it's private or invite only and you're alone.

I reeeally want this game, but I need to know if forcefields will be available.

nope the developers have said they want to keep it as realistic as they can

[QUOTE=TAU!;45810913]I reeeally want this game, but I need to know if forcefields will be available.[/QUOTE] get it anyway. this follows are more semi-realistic way to play, no shields, just lots of armor.
