Space Engineers - Say goodbye to Starmade and Blockade runner. - Games

[QUOTE=Zenreon117;45851027]There is two of every glass block, one for each side. Chances are you just confused them.[/QUOTE] No, they actually bugged glass with the thursday update [editline]31st August 2014[/editline] i have a good feeling about next thursday idk why

I wish there was an out of game ship editor you can use to create and import

[QUOTE=Binladen34;45850805]How can you have an engine that doesn't support transparent objects? Christ Quake had transparency.[/QUOTE] well since the engine is their and new (which is really rare when talking about FPS games), if they didn't code it, it's not there, duh it's not like you code every single gfx thing known to man first and then build a game around it

But they had transparency in since the very first release? Small ship cockpits always had dirt and stuff around the windows, I don't even know where this "the engine doesn't support transparency" shit came from, because it definitely wasn't one of the developers

I want more interior hallway type blocks, with room for button panels and or lights

Guys, stop arguing about the Engine! We've had this before and all it did was take up two pages and not get anywhere. Just get back to business and post ships and discuss the last update and speculate about next week's.

It's always funny to see people who don't know a thing about programming talking shit about game devs or "engine limitations". (I lied, it isn't funny at all, just fucking stupid)

I can't give any information out but for all you LSG types, kepp your eye on Blockade Runner. SE is SE and not much is really going to change. Blockade Runner however is really early in development and the devs have some really nice ideas coming along. Watch their space.

How do I go about assigning more than one function to a button, EG a spotlight and a rotor at one press?

I'm aware of that but there's the chance that there are lurkers here.

It's one of those games that's been "WIP" for several years - whereas with Space Engineers progress is happening before our eyes.

Are you a founder? If not then you can't really comment on how things are doing - not trying to be insulting but there's a lot going on with blockade runner. [editline]31st August 2014[/editline] You've got to hand it to them though, being this dedicated on their first project. Hell they're all way out of their comfort zones and what they;re doing is really impressive. Some SE players would be jealous of some of the features.

[quote]Some SE players would be jealous of some of the features[/quote] Are you trying to stir shit or something

No, most certainly not. Just defending a title I believe has a lot of potential. If I were stirring shit I'd be deliberately trying to agitate people. If I pissed you off then sorry, I didn't mean to. [editline]31st August 2014[/editline] I love SE, I think it's a brilliant game. If you hadn't noticed, I actually started the thread.. I wouldn't have done that if I just wanted to stir shit. [editline]31st August 2014[/editline] On that topic, if anyone has any suggestions for the OP (besides a much needed feature listing update) fire them at me.

[QUOTE=Wickerman123;45856437]If you hadn't noticed, I actually started the thread.. I wouldn't have done that if I just wanted to stir shit.[/QUOTE] That sounds exactly like something a shit-stirrer would say.

[url]http://imgur.com/gtTNpv9[/url] this is the first mod I have seen that introduces actual titan ship weaponry to the game,let it begin.

That looks dumb, it's too big and it would look hilariously out of place, even on larger ships

Waiting intently for real vanilla weapons that aren't countermeasure systems.

[QUOTE=Paramud;45857007]That sounds exactly like something a shit-stirrer would say.[/QUOTE] Well I'm not okay? Can we drop it please? [editline]1st September 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Hammernipples;45857857]That looks dumb, it's too big and it would look hilariously out of place, even on larger ships[/QUOTE] They are a bit big yeah.. However I'd rather try them out first before jumping to conclusions and calling them dumb.

I don't need to try it out to know it's dumb? There's very few good ways to use fixed-mounting guns and you can't really do it with this because it's so obscenely large, if it were two or even three times smaller it'd be ideal, though.

I can see where you're coming from and somewhat agree. I just disagree with the fact your so quick to dismiss and boycott it. At least give it a chance.

What's the point in a model if it doesn't work

[QUOTE=damnatus;45858620]What's the point in a model if it doesn't work[/QUOTE] UHhh, a. few people actually do anything with ships of that size right now, so it's just fun to build with and b. it's a concept to show people he's working on making the model do something. [editline]31st August 2014[/editline] Also as for it being "too big" [t]http://nikon.bungie.org/images/leviathan_lls/LowLevelStrike_large.jpg[/t]

Ah yes halo frigates. The final evolution of the A-10.
