[QUOTE=RocketRacer;42768845]Well, I maybe know the reason you said 2. The avatar is from TRON: Uprising, which events are spanning during the time when Sam Flynn had no idea what the fuck The Grid is, and Kevin Flynn(the creator) was hiding. CLU in my avatar is the same CLU in TRON: Legacy, who is a copy of Kevin Flynn. It's not a second CLU of any sorts, it is the same program.[/QUOTE] Except it is the second Clu, as the original Clu was derezzed by the MCP in the original tron after being captured attempting to uncover evidence of Dillinger's plagiarism. That clu in your avatar is literally Clu2.0, [B]Codified Likeness Utility 2.0[/B] Boom.

[editline]6th November 2013[/editline] Anyways, back to the thread, trying to build Recognizer now.

When multiplayer is in it is gonna be like this [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pgFXCnksJk[/media] only replace reavers with deathcubes and other "original" craft :v:

I recognize that actor, but I can't stop thinking Russel Howard..

Battles like that? There'l be more fleets than there are fps. I wonder how taxing a mid sized ship'd be if it were: Moving Firing weapons Full of crew, also in combat managing doors/lights/life support/misc systems commanding a five fighter squadron. That'd chug only one ship.

[QUOTE=qwerty000;42769335] and other "original" craft :v:[/QUOTE] OC spaceship do not steal.

-snip- this isnt the ss13 thread. sorry. also, grappling hooks need to be added to fling projectiles or to lock a ship into boarding pod distance.

[QUOTE=Zombie_2371;42770824]-snip- this isnt the ss13 thread. sorry. also, grappling hooks need to be added to fling projectiles or to lock a ship into boarding pod distance.[/QUOTE] Chances are boarding pods won't have a distance, they will be people in pods with reinforced fronts that ram ships and board them.

Finished my first ship [img_thumb]http://puu.sh/5adrU.jpg[/img_thumb] [editline]6th November 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Ilwrath;42736083]You should probably get that symptom checked out. But in all seriousness, it's still missing the primary control pontoons from the end of those two corridors, at which point it'll look more like an Y shape. [editline]22:52[/editline] Here's some of the other stuff I've made, three different "sister" ship designs, a Star Control 2 inspired "modular" ship, and some other stuff: [t]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4888695/2013-10-27_00008.jpg[/t] [/QUOTE] That's awesome

I have a question for you guys. Should I hold out on buying until the multiplayer is released, or does anyone think the price will be jacked up when that happens?

[QUOTE=TurtleeyFP;42774011]I have a question for you guys. Should I hold out on buying until the multiplayer is released, or does anyone think the price will be jacked up when that happens?[/QUOTE] That's why I bought it today. It seems fun enough to play around in for a bit and get used to how building works. Also, crashing space ships is always fun I didn't want to wait for cool features and then have the price raise, though I'm not sure if it will or not

[QUOTE=Pigbear;42771441]Chances are boarding pods won't have a distance, they will be people in pods with reinforced fronts that ram ships and board them.[/QUOTE] I mean my idea of boarding pods is a minimalist pod that only has thrusters in the back with one gyro, as to keep it small and fast and streamlined. Grappling hooks could hold the other ship in place as your pod flies right into it, rather than it dodging your pods. I mean that's just my concept of it

[QUOTE=Joazzz;42767996]can't wait for multiplayer and text to speech[/QUOTE] aeiou john madden

What's a good key setup for rotation and block changes? My keyboard setup is weird, so my insert/delete, home and etc are all funky.

[quote]We have just added "magnetic landing gears" to Space Engineers. When landing gears are above a surface, press "P" and they will be attached to the surface. This way you can attach a small ship on a large ship, grab a ship, land your ship, connect two ships and more. Additional info: Black color - not in proximity, Yellow - in proximity, Green - locked Demonstration on this video: [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BN6F1F9CqLU&hd=1[/url] Full list of features here: Features - added landing gears functionality - minor changes in Steam Workshop UI - updated help screen - added confirm dialog when setting controls to defaults - added translators to Credits Fixes - fixed problem in Toolbar Config when adding custom block - fixed texts in HUD[/quote] [editline]6th November 2013[/editline] A pretty big change to functionality! [editline]6th November 2013[/editline] Oh shit the video gave me an idea. Kinetic torpedoes.

That's 2 birds with one stone right there; landing and salvage (3 for wrecking people's shit without wrecking one's own). A rather elegant-looking solution too imo.

Another great idea for mp: make a light frame big ship with tons of trusters, then grab onto an enemy and slam them into an asteroid. [I]SPACE WRESTLING[/I]

Crashing in this game is so damn fun[IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/74811372/Space%20engineers/Collision1.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/74811372/Space%20engineers/Collision2.png[/IMG] It's like it's waiting to be boarded

-snip- woops late

[QUOTE=NoDachi;42775687] Oh shit the video gave me an idea. Kinetic torpedoes.[/QUOTE] First thing I thought when I saw it. Sure enough, it works: [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/eow25cj.jpg[/thumb]

they'll be even more effective when they add heavier plate

Also still no symmetry. [editline]6th November 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=NoDachi;42776319]they'll be even more effective when they add heavier plate[/QUOTE] The interior is lined with gyroscopes to increase mass, but yeah the front breaks really easily.

I was hoping the large landing gear would be able to stick to other large ships.. Would be excellent for salvage operations, or boarding if done correctly. EDIT: Works on stations though, so there's that.

with this new functionality, I think I'd step away from using ships for ramming, but for boarding instead. so exciting, dock on the hull of a large ship and drill your way in unnoticed.

[QUOTE=acds;42776321]The interior is lined with gyroscopes to increase mass, but yeah the front breaks really easily.[/QUOTE] couldn't you try lining the cap with explosive blocks instead? it would serve mostly the same purpose as the gyroscopes AND it would be an actual missile instead of an oversized, easily-snapped rod. i mean once they enable weapons of course

Do save files get uploaded to the steam cloud? Id like to work on my ships from my laptop while sitting in class.
