Johnney Guitar found out that you hold down ctrl shift and drag, you can make platforms and shit so much faster!

[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;42727067]I hope they implement Text-to-speech in multiplayer[/QUOTE] I just did a bit of googling and [url=www.speechfxinc.com/fonixtalk.html]FonixTalk[/url] is the engine Moonbase Alpha uses I checked the demo and it aeious properly I hope they look into it

[QUOTE=Callinstead;42727052]So I was bored... [IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52242457/comicresize.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] BOOM DE YADA!

I usually make things like this. [t]http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/266/b/6/c63_by_ajaxial-d6nidt2.jpg[/t] Guess I should start making some ships or something ready for import into this.

Fuck... I was building a massive dreadnought I was calling the Nostradamus. I saved, quit. Came back to it a few hours later. Went to place a block and -BAM- reached my memory max...

Is there a tutorial for adding blocks to this? I'm eager to do it but i haven't got a clue how.

What colour should I paint it? [t]http://i.imgur.com/WQFgEUM.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/dTv4Fwu.jpg[/t]

white / red masterrace

Red white and black. [t]http://i.imgur.com/Og1cOxY.jpg[/t]

Red Scum. My blue ships of power will destroy you all. When this game gets MP I can imagine FP patrols on large servers and shit like that.

I finished the ork-like ship, although I abandoned the ork idea halfway through. Ill call it the Marianas. [video=youtube;qkwxPbi_xHs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkwxPbi_xHs[/video] If you want, skip to 6:30 for da ramz well, half finished. This is the cargo version. Ill make the battle version later, with more armor and guns and stuff.

i want to see you guys making more non symmetical ships, as well as wider ones havent got the game yet so the only thing i can do is check this thread to see what you guys are building :v:

I'm working on my first ship and I figured I'd make the ship from the game of Traveller I'm in using [url=http://filesmelt.com/dl/Traveller_Ship_Mk3_with_key.png]the schematics we drew up[/url] Mostly uploading these pictures so my group can be see them but hey if I'm making any super obvious mistakes don't hesitate to let me know.

[QUOTE=Ogopogo;42728977]Red white and black. [t]http://i.imgur.com/Og1cOxY.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Now I need to make a carrier for this.

You know what? If people actually cooperated and formed fleets, it'd be godly for carriers to have, instead of traditional fighters, burrowers; fighters with drills instead of weapons, meant for the complete destruction of a ship.

What if you got attacked by multiple smaller fighters at once? A bit harder to ram small fast-movers with lasers and rockets.

[QUOTE=Jrose14;42729895]You'd have to rebuild half of your fleet like every fight though. What if you got attacked by multiple smaller fighters at once? A bit harder to ram small fast-movers with lasers and rockets.[/QUOTE] Make it so that WIP fabricator can be loaded with blueprints for small craft and set to auto-build. Or better yet, make it keep track of how many ships it has created and how many are still functional, so that you can input a limit to how many ships you want, and so that it can build more once a few ships have been destroyed. Make it happen devs.

After 3-4 hours, the outer hull of my capital ship is complete. Just need to finish the interior, add details, and paint it.

I can see it now. Huge areas of "No mans Land" where hundreds of ship lie dead. The Facepunch fleet comes into the area with to search for resources for the FP HQ. The Main ship is a carrier, made by the best FP can offer, it's big enough to hold small frigates and hundreds of fighters. The fighters are sent out to set beacons on areas to scavenge later. Suddenly something in the distance opposite from "No mans land", A pirate fleet. The fighters quickly head forward to intercept the fleet. Hundreds are in this battle, small fighters are exploding while the frigates from the FP fleet flank the pirate fleet. The frigates finally make it around no mans land a see it. [t]http://i.imgur.com/QXgA9rn.jpg[/t] The FP frigates barely do any damage to the monster and are quickly destroyed. The rest of the fleet leave because they know it's impossible to beat them. My imagination wants this game to be the best game ever :(

you're setting yourself up for a disappointment because you know the actual game will never play out like that

[QUOTE=NoDachi;42729985]you're setting yourself up for a disappointment because you know the actual game will never play out like that[/QUOTE] A man can dream.

It could, potentially, but probably not. I'd imagine, provided there's a way to load ships into a server, we could probably organize some stuff like that. You would have to organize it, though. It couldn't be spontaneous in the least.

I don't get the point of this game, effectiveness of a block type just seems to be linearly related to how many of those blocks you have and there's a speed limit, so there's not much you can do with propulsion. Is this one of those games that requires this "creativity" I've been hearing about?
