Wait, so you're not gonna release it?
I mean, the thread sort of implies it. But honestly, why would you make a thread about a gamemode if you're not even gonna release it, is it just to be mockful or for a transparent attempt to get some extra advertisment?

We don't want Devinity: Outer Edge. Just about every other gamemode posted here does not have public server files.

Old Age
Giablo.
Yeah, I really like private gamemodes and once they become public the gamemodes just turn into a shitstorm.

1. I don't have any servers.

Not sure I follow you there.
On-Topic:
Nice gamemode and great progress, however I was wondering where my drone script went? It was scrapped 3 times by sunrise/devinity developers for an unknown reason, I'd like to know a reason for that.
Played it a bit more and did some mining/extracting(?). It's surprisingly addicting. It needs some ambient music that plays in the background to give it that spacey feeling. I ended up listening to [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_3qI-haKps]this[/url] as I played. :v:

Since your code is not used, drones will be implemented when we get to that part of our list and written from scratch.
I haven't personally even looked at the code you wrote for them.

Point is when are we ever gunna have drones on Sunrise/Devinity?
It has been [b]about 1-2 years[/b] with no signs of any big new feature. There were actually alot of features on the Devinity scripts, I send you, but you decided to go the exact same game concept as Sunrise. Please make something new and something that isn't on the other Sunrise edits.
Reminds me of a more adult version of spore
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;24787598]Reminds me of a more adult version of spore[/QUOTE]
Um... ok...
I'm working on it Maw.
I could do better. lol jk
How many people are usually on the server?
Usually 4 - 10 or so. Maybe people could tell me what they want to see on the gamemode?
A warp to and target interface like in Eve Online.
And make it so spaceships require certain skills.
Stars as actual objects that you can mine!
Where are the files for this gamemode available for download? The connecting to server download is taking WAY too long.
[QUOTE=minicunga;24803839]A warp to and target interface like in Eve Online.
[/QUOTE]
For the warp to interface you might want to check out the F2 menu, it's a look at / search menu for asteroid fields.
It needs to be rewritten but it's okay for now I guess.
I just played the gamemode and I've got to say, its pretty good for an alpha gamemode.
Suggestions:
[b]More user-friendly beggining[/b]
When I joined the server, I knew nothing. I didn't know how to mine shit and how anything worked.
I would like to see some sort of manual or noob guide for beginners since the gamemode can seem pretty confusing at first.
[b]More varied color scheme[/b]
Yes, that map is incredibly pretty and the star is amazing, but everything is just too... [i]blue[/i].
Maybe you can add some lights to the stations that light up 700km around them or something like that.
After playing the game for a while, the blue doesn't really make you feel too good.
[b]More use for minerals[/b]
All you can do right now is sell them. While I know you guys are probably going to change that, I want too see some possible weaponry/armor crafting?
[b]Other Suggestions[/b]
-More weapon slots (you must buy them)
-More enemies (yeah, you'll probably do this)
-More enemies (as in more abundant)
-Random enemies that start attacking random stations
-More bounty hunter missions
-More upgrades
You guys will probably do most of this without me telling you to, but whats the harm in ideas?

Drones <--- Just drones, that's all I wanna see!
Minor:
- Multi-targeting system
- Some sort of manufacturing thing so minerals have a use
- Have some of the weapons and items require a certain skill level such as a T6 miner requires level 30 mining.
- Impliment modules you can install on your ship that enhances it abit (With a visual display on the ship that shows its on, resulting in a custom build ship).
- Planets :3

Well on the F1 menu, the thing that opens up on initial spawn you press getting started and it should tell you everything you need to know to get started.

Good suggestions most of them are already planned.
Maw how are we going to do planets without other servers? Unless they are really small you know full well we will run out of map space.

Not going to happen unless we get more modellers.
Just been playing this, and I've got to say it's fantastic.
It's like a free EVE, something I've always wanted.
Keep up the fantastic work OP and everyone else who's developing/helping with this gamemode, I'm looking forward to the future.

As you mentioned yourself. Make the planets small. You tried out my version of Devinity and it had tiny planets. They were excellent decorations. :D
Add a hyperspace also. You could use render to cut the model with pushing and popping the clipplane. Just making suggestions, mate.
-> Switch your server into something compartible with scriptenforcer please!
Oh yeah, the clipping on the viewplane happens ALOT.

We don't have the money for Windows, maybe Garry will fix it.
Relating to planets, if we made them small like how the station is then they would be rather flat and not look very planet like from there.
Perhaps something else to do other than pirate hunting and mining, since that made Sunrise about as fun as watching paint dry on a wet lawn.
Though I haven't been able to connect to the server lately, I am assuming the mission system hasn't exactly been...how should I say, made 'wider'?
.....
I didnt even understand how to mine
In tutorial it says to equip and unequip at the same time .

Equip your mining laser on the loadout tab on the ship terminal in the station.
Undock
Find asteroid.
Press E on it.
Press 1 through 6 depending on how many lasers you have equipped.
Thanks
If anyone with a Mac has any problems with Devinity let me know and il try to fix the problems.
