Maw this gamemode is amazing but weapons are still underpowered as fuck Also the asteroids are all the same if they are in the same asteroid field. I kind of liked having to look for the best asteroid. This also allows room for more minerals, there are only so many T15 sectors. Also random chances for super-rare minerals that can be used to craft extremely good weapons would be nice. Also maybe black holes could take you to different sectors and maybe even a hidden black hole that doesn't show up on the map could take you to a hidden T16 sector? That'd be cool. And railguns and automated turrets. Everything needs railguns and automated turrets. Would be nice on mining ships too.

[QUOTE=themaw;43653261]Hand it over... in 3ds format + textures.[/QUOTE] How about just break it down and build ships from modular pieces. Less models and could make more interesting space craft.

Why don't you just let him build it the way he likes and see where it goes instead of giving him boxes and mocking him?

[QUOTE=themaw;43653261]Hand it over... in 3ds format + textures.[/QUOTE] PM'ed with link.
If anyone bothered to read previous pages, the way the map works is that I simulate objects around the player, meaning the player never moves around the map, AKA, you will never hit the skybox and the models aren't infinitely small. The reason why I don't want people to interrupt warping is because I never planned the gamemode to have any interrupt feature for the gamemode. Experienced a few annoying facts from Sunrise about the so called "Free warping" and this annoyed the HECK out of me and everyone else in the server. It caused more problems than it solved. Deal with it. [editline]25th January 2014[/editline] KeitaroCOS. Approved!

[/QUOTE] He said the "deal with it" because you're making a huge fuss over nothing. It's his prerogative to answer the question with detail or not, and the reasoning for demanding such information would not change the outcome. It's not something about it's a problem that needs fixing, but a development and gameplay choice that he made. As I said, there's really no point to cancelling warp (if it were possible with the way Maw has the positioning run) from a technical and gameplay standpoint, anyway. What I fail to understand is why you're so torn up about it. It's not a matter of Maw acting superior to you, but you feeling inferior to him for whatever reason. In the end, you've just stressed over nothing and you are left with nothing after getting the detailed answer that you desired so much. [QUOTE]the maws furry army has been called upon to rate me dumb, oh no![/QUOTE] Oh, please.

[QUOTE=LauScript;43673822]-nonsensical rant-[/QUOTE] I don't know why you're so riled up by this. Why is giving a simple answer to a simple question a "douchebag answer given from a high-seat throne". Do you possess the amazing ability to detect tone and intentions of text? It was a simple question that got a simple answer, and you feel the need to blow the entire thing out of proportion. Don't even attempt to act sympathetic toward killer346, for he has not acted "betrayed" over such a "terrible and simple" response. I don't know what kind of a grudge you hold against Maw, but derailing the thread over something so small is unnecessary. Could you please stop?
MOVING ON Ehhh what to expect on 0.14: - Did some rearrangements on when to update the players account. (This caused the server FPS to go down to 2 fps because it was loading a lot of them at the same time) - Currently designing the new modules menu (Bound to the context menu button. Default key is C) - Propably will add a bank in the station, because people die a lot. - Redesigning the voice chat icon thingy. WIP Modules Menu: [img_thumb]http://imageshack.com/a/img560/5964/je44.png[/img_thumb] Future plans: - VIPs and Donators can project youtube videos out of their ships, so they can watch something on the internet while mining or something. - VIPs and Donators can stream music of the internet out of their ships. - Chat will have different tabs: Universal, Local and Fleet chat. - Voice Chat will only be heard within the same solar system or fleet. - Fleet hud glitch. - Crafting with multiple ore combinations gives stronger equipment. - Skills - Missions - Factions and faction stations. (The leader of the faction can design their own interior for the station)

Hey, if people abuse music playing or video streaming, you could always blast them.
I optimized the system that saves peoples accounts. Downed it from 113kb per update to 10kb per update. That'll lessen the stress from the server :)
[QUOTE=Dmaster;43677831]Hey, if people abuse music playing or video streaming, you could always blast them.[/QUOTE] That's always an option, yes, but I currently don't have the greatest missiles you can get legit.
