I wish chainguns didn't have absurd recoil. Makes small fighter/drone/turret designs a pain.
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;45965579]Oh balls, this mini patch ruined my periscopes again, because now I can't access the remote control for it form a terminal, damnit.[/QUOTE] Try it from outside a ship terminal. I hope they fix the rotors/pistons/etc remote control thing somehow, but yeah, someone on reddit mentioned that if you use your spacesuit's short range thing (can you even see the K menu from outside a terminal?), you can see remote control things. I mean for sure you can just attach a little terminal with a landing gear but rly I hope Keen fixes it like, before next Thurs.
My next drone will be a radio relay satellite.Just pilot it out there and park it,hell put a camera on it and I have a surveillance/spy satellite .
now that we have cameras, third person should be a world toggle?

Using a button panel is a workaround at the moment as that works. Last update was it worked fine form a terminal but you needed an antenna ont he thing, now its you dont need an antenna on the thing but you also can't control it from the terminal.
so something weird happened.

[img]http://fi.somethingawful.com/safs/smilies/2/3/manning.001.gif[/img][/QUOTE] speaking of this it was definitely a glitch. I recorded a video of me doing the same thing exactly and while still kind of glitchy, it wasn't the absolute massacre that i had the first time. Also you can see my clone and my new project. I got hooked on star trek's ship designs thanks to STO. [video=youtube;IN8SlaHZpcs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN8SlaHZpcs[/video]
[QUOTE=Tmaxx;45966607]speaking of this it was definitely a glitch. [/QUOTE] Thats a shit opinion. I think its a feature.
is anyones connectors jiggling to the point of disintegration? i just lost a small mining ship because the game tore my small ship in half and threw its bits everywhere while i was trying to offload its ore.
Also I just found out that if you have something locked onto your ships landing gears, it won't allow you to control it via the remote control blocks.
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;45967471]Also I just found out that if you have something locked onto your ships landing gears, it won't allow you to control it via the remote control blocks.[/QUOTE] That's not that weird. That's what merge and connector blocks are for, since there aren't really any circuits running through the bottom of landing gear. Also landing gear connections are not treated the same as merges.

that rocket launcher sounds like a really expensive way to trigger the warhead why not use a small warhead?
[QUOTE=ossumsauce;45967630]Predicting future glitches? [sp]it's in alpha, you gorilla faced toilet seat[/sp][/QUOTE] Excuse me, I haven't actually read anything about the since this thread first opened up, which was like last year around this time. My question now is how in shit is this still alpha after all this time?

Why do people buy 400 dollar headphones, 30,000 dollar cars, 300,000 dollar houses, 3 dollar sodas, and "artesian water" that is literally just water? Why does the US government spen untold shittymcfuckloads of money and months of time to pass laws governing how much rat shit can be in your box of cheerios and then go home at night and not drink themselves to alcohol poisoning for being useless wastes of flesh? Why does Squeegy Mackoy do awesome Squeegy Mackoy stuff in every game? Why does every kid on the space engineers forum have his own company/fleet/empire with two years of backstory and 3 people in it? Why do lots of little pieces of candy sell for more than one huge piece of candy, despite being the same amount of candy? Why to flies exist? They are the most annoying fucking useless little shits in this universe. Answer? Fucked if I know. Human nature or some deep shit like that.

Also landing gear connections are not treated the same as merges.[/QUOTE] I know that, wasn't saying that. Even if you have an antenna on something and its locked to a landing gear, you can't directly control it until you release it from the landing gear.
For some reason I can't controll any remote controlls anymore. The controll button is just greyed out while it has power and an antenna (on both ships). I can controll stuff when not trying to steer from a command seat though for some reason, while the exact same setup worked before saving and loading it back.
