Very cool stuff, those map screen shots that everyone quoted like 5 times was worth it. Release that and the new life support :-D Thank you for your time to make toys for us to play with.
I hope this hasn't been suggested before, but, what are the possiblities of destructable items (such as coolant tanks, energy cells, etc...)? Just kinda putting it out there, because my friends and I like to play this mod and it would be kind of cool if you could maybe strafe an enemy ship and take out their air supply for example.
I don't know much about coding and things like that, so I'm not sure of how much of a pain that would be to create, and obviously its up to the developers of this mod, but I thought I would just throw it out there. :-)
I want to see thrusters that use gas. gas could be hydrogen and you would need hydrogen and air to make thrusters work, making it important to carry a good supply of it. you could take the risk and have one tank for life support and thrusters or go with separate systems. I think this would add a lot to this mod.

A few post ago I said that I'm going to make something like what you just said, thrusters that require fuel.
This game mode rocks! what would be good though would be some sort of container that can hold everything, like coolant, air etc. But really this thig rocks.

Yes. For small fighters. And if your using breakable props it's more dangerous. Good hit or two and oh crap! More like a fighters systems, all in one build in. Would need recharging, of course.
[QUOTE=npckiller]Yeah, but like, one actually dedicated to it.
Don't just blow me off.
For instance, as I said systems you need to survive pressure, ect.
Reactors.[/QUOTE]
He's not trying to "blow you off", He was just saying that they do work underwater. Try the map "Blindfight", that's a map made for submarine battles using the life support systems. :D

You could probaly use the destructible props stool, I think it works with that stuff. :)
Shanjaq actually started the life support addon for submarines. There's just a lot more to add for spaceships than subs.
Also, I kinda meant to get this finished earlier, but here's a more in-depth guide on how to make planets for Spacebuild, since I didn't really like Shanjaq's instructions when I made my own and figured they needed to be expanded a lot. :P

By the way, is there anything wrong with using the arch tool to make the wall around the planet instead of two cylinders and carving?
Also, are you planning to make a way to control the atmosphere of an area through trigger volumes or something? As of now, it's not possible to build a habitable space station into a map without using one of the planet entities.
Gravity plates work in space when you can fall to the floor
Is possible to design mod or a map so a gravity plate can also work underwater? No longer swimming or fog? Simulated air bubble
how's that update coming Shanjaq? I can't wait!
When i make a constraint the sky goes blindingly white
The sky goes white when, either there's a glitch with the map (rarely actually appears), someone turns on their flashlight, or it just randomly happens.
NICE GAMEMODE, Er sorry about caps but this is cool (only just descovered this spacebuild thingy). :P
By the way I am going to try and make a map for this aswell.

Dude, it has been reported at least one thousand times in the topic. It's a Source bug. :/
Oh well, just felt like being nice and TELLING the guy who doesn't have the patience to check the entire thread that it's a source bug ok?.
Hey! The last part of the credits is wrong. Half-Life Two wasn't made by Steam, Valve did! Steam is just a company that you can download games from.
Er, Steam is a program made by Valve, not a separate compan... meh.
So, anyone else working on Spacebuild maps? Will we ever see Chapter 2?
I am working a spacebuild map. :)
I can't wait! I love a new spacebuild map. Be sure you don't give anything away in the map description; I really enjoy exploring the planets for myself :dance:
I just downloaded the space build game mode and the gmod patch, and when i try to run the game mode on Garry's Mod, it doesn't show up. I extracted them to the folder gamemodes.
Did you extract it to garrysmod/gamemodes or garrysmod/addons?
i extracted it to /gamemodes and still doesn`t show on the gamemode tabs
EDIT
problem fixed, i hadn´t restarted steam, if the gamemode doesn´t show just restart steam
EDIT 2
no, after further testing the problem was how the rar was made
to make it work you have to extract the folder that says spacebuild, not spacebuild_v2 and the map folder to the gamemodes folder
EDIT 3
ok i give up, i don´t know how to play on the spacebuild map :(
Where exactly do I extract the map to? I've tried garrysmod/garrysmod, maps, addons, and most of the other folders.
this is very confusing. I think it just doesn't work on some computers or something to do with that.
Sig220, i'm not sure, because i downloaded it to the map folder and it showed up. But back to the gamemode, i think i will try and download it again.
I forgot how it was organized. Extract it to your desktop, then drag the internal maps and gamemodes folders to garrysmod/garrysmod.
Shanjaq are you planning on doing anything about Fusion Reactor abuse? People on your server constantly nuke and it gets pretty annoying especially when your ship gets vaporized. I thought spacebuild was about trying to explore and build the best ship but some people just constantly nuke and don't even bother building. Well anyway I love your server and I love spacebuild. I hope to build with you soon and hopefully by then this problem will be resolved.
Why doesn`t I die when I'm outside earth?
And I'm using the life support. I alos entered "sbox_godmode 0", so It's kind of strange.
Sorry if someone has asked this already, but when I load a saved spacebuild, it's like the spacebuild mode wears off, and I'm stuck in sandbox. Could someone please give me the command prompt code to restart the gamemode, assuming one even exists. Thanks!
[QUOTE=Jinto]I'm most likely not going to get around to finishing the gamemode that went with this. So I converted it for spacebuild. I'll release it sometime tommorrow after a full compile.
