Wow I was terrible at Acs. After rebuilding the explodey turret it now has a layer of armor but exactly the same rate of fire and ammo capacity as before.

Anyone messed with shields on the below-deck turret parts or ammo ejectors? I'm going full safety salamander on this.

>>163412685
I used to have the same problem with my 150mmx6m spam tube mounted onto my fag subs

Just make a layer of heavy armor on the side the gun faces so that it rotates to whatever it points at. Also make sure that pesky fucking HE bugs can't seep through the turret bottom and the hull top by having a tiny 6 way connector linking the top to the bottom with the hull roof spared by heavy armor to guard the internals.

>>163413106
For clarification I meant mount heavy armor on the front of the turret basket, so that when the turret faces someone, even when they pen your hull, theres a layer of heavy armor guarding the ammunition to stop their shell.

Has anyone had any luck designing a shaped charge in spengies for small ship torpedoes meant exclusively to pen through a fuck load of armor? No explosives in cargo crates. Also knowledge on how the game does damage from impacts and explosions would be a god send.

People are still salty as fuck about the dev of FtD changing the resource system to use less types of resources, 'unifying' some aspects of resource management into a generic brick of nonsense.

Its litterally the only bote game with vaugely focused engineering aspects. Most of the time it lines up with reality, but sometimes the dev just decides shit that doesn't make any sense. Ballistic trajectory, for one. It just falls off at a certain distance arbitrarily.

While I did enjoy my time with FtD, I think it's a strongly overrated game.
Sure, 137 hours is quite a bit, but at least 10 hours were spent banging my head against the wall, just trying to learn the ass-backwards controls.
Another 10 hours were lost to the story missions which you *need* to complete to unlock certain very useful blocks.
Then, some 20 hours were spent learning how the fuck the campaign is played, and wondering why there's three different buttons to access unit controls (each button of course produces a marginally different menu).
I could've been saved a lot of suffering if someone had just told me to put everything out of play. Seriously, don't put things into play unless you absolutely have to.
The remaining 90 or so hours were spent on 1 (and a half) campaign, most of which was played alt-tabbed because FPS during battles is measured in decimals.

Somewhere in the above, I had about 10 hours of good fun, trying to design functional and effective machines of war.

>>163456892
I'd love to see the REM engine hacked up and used for a simple RTS for reasons like this.

Spengies unfixed when

>>163457129
Personally, I think we just need a multiplayer game like machinecraft with voxel/vehicle collision damage at some point, since as soon as that exists the thread will have something to lean on that people can post about regularly and newfags can join in with easily.
I've noticed that, because each game here has only one or two features in that new people specifically want from these games, they tend to spend ages on the game they picked up first and discussion between the resident playerbases doesn't go very far. If we had one simple, common game that nearly everyone here could play regularly in multiplayer then we wouldn't be so ded all the time.

Purposefully doing it is another thing - I totally get stringing up things / shooting them / etc., but when you're upset and start punching walls and breaking stuff it's another thing.

>>163463263
Honestly I don't know, we started this run the day planets released, and we aren't putting it down until we've touched down at least once on every planet

>>163464715
I dunno, everyone has a breaking point. I had a customer who was aggravated with his new Mac, this was when they first switched over to OSX. He got so upset about it he threw the fucking $2000 computer out a 3rd story window and ordered a $400 Dell, which he also hated.

It was a stupid thing to do; I would never do it; but I understand the impulse.

Is there a simple explanation of Starmade basics somewhere? The tutorial's not very helpful.

>>163466510
"DON'T BOTHER"

>>163466510
simple explanation of starmade building:
1) make shitbox miner to get enough resources
2) make shitbox factory to make blocks
3) start laying out your dream ship
4) realise you're gonna need to think about weapon
5) look up the table online because it's not ingame
6) get bogged down with just how many options there are for the weapon and how probable you'll get it wrong and end up with a really big time waste of a peashooter
7) give up and play another game / actually do finish it regardless of if it is crap or not
8) realise no one is generally online when you are, so it's a ghosttown of protected ships
9) give up play something else

of course now AI fleets are in I guess there is something to do, so maybe this is wrong now.

>>163466028
That's like 6h gameplay on a 1 1 10 settings, how the fuck have you been going at it since the planets release?

Never.

They want to kill CLANG, stop believing marek the false prophet.

>>163467486
There are NPC factions now, so there's at least an illusion of activity.

>>163447525
Single player or multiplayer?
SP: don't go fast
MP: don't

Actually, it would work in MP too if you don't ever touch or control your ship, no matter what you see the server will not fuck up positions until a player gets involved (like using a remote or sitting in a cockpit).

If you're in SP you can also get the control module mod and control the hinge with a couple of buttons on your keyboard.

I've always found written tutorials to be mostly garbage, given that they don't give accurate visual examples of procedures, and leave things up for interpretation. A video tutorial is usually done by someone who knows a lot of tricks and shit to make things go faster, a written tutorial is typically done by someone who has never in their entire life had to hold someone's attention for more than six seconds.

As someone mentioned before an actual hybrid using frames for the hulls(physics porn) and some kind of voxel builder for the weapons(gun porn) and other systems sounds pretty fucking fappable.

In an ftd type setting it wouldn't be a gay multiplayer arena shooter anymore so your balance complaints are invalid. The idea was to make it into a fun engineering game.

Never said that, don't think. I said he made really poor decisions I didn't agree with. The game runs poorly, but that has more to do with massive amounts of voxels and the problems with that.

Nothing wrong about mining by hand in the early game, before you can afford a proper mining ship.
In all likelihood, you can gather ore quickly enough to keep several refineries busy.
The lemon comes equipped with a collector and a gravity generator, all you need to do is build a quick funnel and adjust the gravity field.

I don't even think it would be safe to mine with, considering the distance between drills.

FtD's UI is undeniably a mess, and a significant detractor from any fun the game can offer.
It is not just that singular anon complaining, you'll see it mentioned frequently.

You're fucking retarded.
Stabbing is an effective means of damaging major blood vessels and vital organs - which usually leads to death.
We've been killing each other with stab wounds for god knows how long, and are still going at it.
For the same reason, several modern-day countries have restricted the availability of long knives, hoping to reduce the amount of fatal stabbings.

So, eggmen. How would I go about defending my base in Factorio with just gun turrets and no logistics bots? Do I just make a huge loop of conveyors within the circumference of my walls?

I might set up flamer turrets later but they won't be enough by themselves probably.

>>163513393
No loops.

>>163513895
Actually, when it comes to defenses, loops are actually helpful because unused ammo will circulate and remain available to all turrets, instead of piling up in the dead end while turrets "upstream" get torn apart because they ran out of ammo.

>>163515523
Or you can just put an inserter between each turret. You'll have to set down power lines when you inevitably upgrade to lasers anyway.

>>163515583
But I'm trying to get the no laser turrets achievement.

>>163509000
>Saying he's the real Ramirez
Not only is he not the real Slim Shady, but the guy telling the story has not mentioned saying anything to the mystery astronaut about Ramirez already being inside. This means that Outer Ramirez (who at first was acting normally) has realised you've noticed the real one already being inside and is becoming desperate.

>>163515715
Doesn't mean the inserter thing is any worse.

>>163515754
Yeah I'm gonna use it probably. Could get fucky if the wall isn't straight tho.

>>163513393
Yes, that's one of few times when loops are reliable option

>>163518264
A loop can be good in extensive burner feeding systems, though it'll only stave off a coal shortage by a few minutes.

>>163518329
But here comes sudden downside as looped coal will be accessible to all boilers, which means shorter span of higher electricity output, opposite to slowly deepening brownout happening with dead-ends fulled with coal

>>163518448
Except a burner doesn't burn any coal unless it needs to in order to get the water to a 100°C.
And a slower brownout won't help out much, because it will affect the inserters loading the rest of the coal as well unless you're doing the coalburner inserters.

>>163513393
The best defense is a good offense. Clear all the enemy bases in your pollution zone, and if you don't think it is cheating, turn on enemy candidate chunks.
To do so, hit F4, click the always tab, scroll to the bottom, and check "show_enemy_candidate_chunks". Green circles are where they are likely to form, to red where they are not likely to form. Things that reduce chances of new bases forming is the existence of spawners and your structures. So, an enemy base will show up as a red circle surrounded by green circles.
Be sure to leave a few random gun turrets randomly placed to alert you to new migrations. Also, check the map every so often.
Flashing green circles is a new base forming, or a base expanding.

>>163543021
yes it's worth it

>>163543021
Empyrion's "galactic survival" title is very fitting because it's not an engineering game, it's a survival crafting game. It has some neat features, actually working 70% of the time being the biggest selling point against SE, but advanced construction is nonexistent, nevermind coding, you can barely even control specific blocks. It's an okay survival crafting game, you can get a dozen or two hours out of it, but that's all.

>>163506673
I've done the tutorials, they're pretty basic, too time consuming for what they say and completely ignore some things.
You could sum them all up in some text and a few highlighted words for the tl;dr, sort of like the help if it was made better.
But anyway, once you realize the basic parts you need for something, picking up the game isn't that hard, when I bought it I thought I wouldn't play it much because it would be too hard for a physician but it turns out it isn't.
The hard part is getting good I suppose.

Don't fucking use the tutorials you mong, experiment and ask questions. The tutorials were made by the really salty dev who can't into game design even a little bit.

I like how steep the Ftd and DF learning cliffs are it keeps the normies out. Once normies start playing your game you are 100% fucked.

One minute ppl are complaining ftd is too complicated then you get ppl moaning about how the resource system was simplified it's impossible for a dev to win with players nowadays.

why do these fuckers even moan about complexity there are tons of games out there there should be one for everyone
fucking casul normies should play angry burbs

ffs man just pick one engine type, pick one weapon, build a small shit vessel to test what you learned, then go spawn in an enemy ship or do campaign or something for a bit so you get a flavour of it.

What is REMdev up to?

Need some help. My spengies server in a VM refuses to run current version of the game.
It's still running last week's stable and no one can connect anymore as I've tried deleting my Space Engineers game folder, reinstalling, and launching the dedicated server again.
It is still the old version.
Where is version related data kept? In the world files?

yo, not sure if anyone here is still interested in skubmade but the new "big" community server just went up, and the big baddies of the game have been going pretty hard on it, dropped a big station near spawn to nuke players they didn't like, been popping most everyone while they tried to set up. more action that i've seen since probably /egg/made LCB server

its been fun so far

How's performance? WOrth setting up infrastructure where we can build AI warfleets?

>>163575028
it's been pretty good so far, they had some early issues due to DB bugs from the new update but its been seemingly resolved. i'd say its worth it as far as playing starmade goes

Besiege, kind of. I spent a lot of time building engines in it anyway.

>>163576459
can you duplicate all that shit and make a massive working car with driveshaft and so on?

>>163576590
I doubt it. That engine doesn't make a ton of power, and bigger ones that do lag the game. I think I saw someone build a tiny car with a much simpler engine, but that's not really the kind of thing the game is designed for.

My cousin was just, 'Hey, couldn't we use the steam from heated water guns as a source of power for engine?' and then we spent a month building different designs. It's really a pain getting anything to run well because of how the blocks go together. That engine there has horrible fucking valve timing, but there's not much to do about that other then to make everything bigger so theirs more room for adjustment.

>>163577417
maybe a single-stroke to make an incredibly slow car

Some anon was using steam to simulate an otto engine, and also was wondering how to make a working clutch, a way was using spin blocks to fit in a cross gear shaft, and the spinblocks in the cranckshaft, so when they spin, they get into the geared cross closing the system, and releasing it doing the oposite.
webm semi related

I wish I had tried this stuff while playing besiege, all I managed to do was unsuccessfully attempt to make a rack and pinion thing out of reversed tank treads to make a monowheel.
