Can anyone else use subscribed worlds with "quotes" and Astrix* in their names? I can't, they don't even download even though they say they do. I've actually had to request some people change their files workshop name so they work.
App data
[QUOTE=Vilusia;42743749]App data[/QUOTE]
Yeah i found them right after I posted that.
-snap.
There is one look at the bottom of it.
Consider the following: Once space battles are in, space debris will pretty much become a thing. And a potential threat, as well.
I was thinking about space battles, and I think it'd probably be just small little 2 to 3 ship battles, because operating a fleet will require a lot of players and I don't think multiplayer is gonna be able to handle multiple fleets on a server.

Which basically means my mega-carrier design is useless

nobody's stopping you from ramming people with it
Except that i'd hate to ruin such a massive ship by ramming it
[editline]3rd November 2013[/editline]
It's 60 stories high and 200 blocks wide 250 in length
People would probably just board you easily as well because of your size then find the control room and murder you.
not to mention you'll probably never bother freebuilding something of that size
Has there been any word on max server sizes? I'm hoping for at least 8 slots.
That said, I'd sell my firstborn child for a 32v32 space battle in this game.

I hope they do a lot of optimisation, but I doubt they can work magic.

I was going to build a large mining vessel.
Build the main structure of it. Start building the drill struts.
"drill is not available on large ships"

im slowly making progress but this is just to show you the scale of the thing.
[editline]3rd November 2013[/editline]
Right wing is 20 stories, Left wing 40 stories, and the bridge is either going to be 10 or 20 stories not sure yet as I haven't decided on that. So it's going to be 50 or 60 stories high.

One of my favorite things about ME was this discussion that the Asari ship was the way it was because they were asexual.

Where as as the other races had sorta phallic shapes.

more scaling pictures comparing the height of the right wing to the height of the left wing

You wish.
Atm I am creating a full size Starcraft battlecruiser:
Visible is the front hammer head which I am starting to work on, 6 wraith jet hangars, connecting beams that will run through the thinner middle secition.

yes i'm aware of the Star Destroyer-related irony
has anybody managed to make a huge ship without their FPS tanking or
[QUOTE=geogzm;42745937]has anybody managed to make a huge ship without their FPS tanking or[/QUOTE]You can have a massive ship without that much of a drop in FPS, it's just when it starts doing something e.g. moving, colliding, that it drops. Well, in my case, the game slowed down the physics timescale instead.
Yeah i think i just broke the game and lost a ton of progress :/
I was using CTRL to put a lot of blocks at once, and it just crashed.
There goes 1000 blocks gone.

*2000
i was just building by far my biggest ship yet
i had just about finished
unfortunately the ship was very far away from the starting area, but it'd be fine since i'd spawn right where i was
i save and go for a while
when i return, i'm back at the starting area
i've been searching for an hour in one of the starter fighters and i can't find it

Someone make the Exxon Valdez.
This is the perfect game for it.
So everyone are showing off their cool designs of ships...All I am capable of is this:

Thing is so freakin slow.

In mid construct I actually forgot that you need thrusters on every direction, so I had 4 thrusters at back and when I test-flew it I set my speed to 0.3 m/s and it slowly was flying away from spawn and I was quickly puttin other thursters on the fly.

I like it. It's simple but it's great.
