>>168039592
Yes and the more weight you add to them, especially with blocks that trap less air, the less buoyant they become.

>>168039592
They're usually not very airtight from my experience.

Nope, there are some boat bricks.

>>168039592
The problem's going to be how many blocks are above the waterline, since they won't help with buoyancy.
Aircraft carriers are probably the best shape for this actually, since they're flatter/wider than most ships.

But FAR is shit. It's iffy in transsonic areas, doesn't really do sideslip and the fundamental design of the game prevents any kind of meaningful aerodynamic simulation. All the mods do is desperately try to make of something so shallow and dull, and none of them have managed to truly succeed, including FAR.

>>168049062
>>168049094
I got 110M with one fucking trade of particle accelerators and my cargo hold is tiny as fuck.

Building an actual hauler is only good if you ghetto one out of iron and even then, what are you going to use all that money for?
Stations ATM are absolutely useless, making a production chain takes a long ass time and you have to haul everything into them manually.

The game is far too early into development to start roleplaying EVE in it.

>>168049642
>you have to haul everything into them manually.
wrong. put docks on your factories and NPC haulers will occasionally come by and sell/buy shit.

>The game is far too early into development to start roleplaying EVE in it.
that won't stop me from trying

>>168049906
>put docks on your factories and NPC haulers will occasionally come by and sell/buy shit.
Problem with that is that all sectors are active only when the player is in them. There is technically a mod that solves that, but only partially. It just keeps track of each factory and ticks the production up when you come back, it doesn't handle the selling and buying of goods.

>>168049403
But did he actually remove them or just talk about doing it? I haven't played in a while and I find it hard to believe he'd be that fucking retarded.

>>168050267
He did it in the past, and he's done more retarded shit. It's a cynical, educated guess, but a very good one at that.

>>168050267
He hasn't said anything, but think about it.
You have two brands of engines, (electric and RTG don't count).
One that uses fuel and one that uses materials directly.
The one that uses materials has moving parts while the other one doesn't.
Fuel engines require you to refine materials to turn them into fuel.
Knowing how he's simplifying things for the target playerbase, it makes sense that it will get rid of refineries, and by extension, fuel. And since both engines would run with raw materials, and one has animated parts and the other doesn't, you can guess what happens next.

>>168050183
yeah, that's a pain. hopefully koonschi will add some simulation for trading in unloaded sectors

>>168049906
> put docks on your factories and NPC haulers will occasionally come by and sell/buy shit
Yes i tested it, made a power plant in onje of the home sectors with a shitload of factories, in 1 hour only 1 NPC visited my station, promptly rammed the docking port and fucked away.

It'll still fragment into smaller and smaller pieces, with everything eventually crashing down on the planet. Look at chelyabinsk meteor. 1 big rock fragmented into 2 pieces and completely burned out. Shone brighter than the sun for a few seconds, and people needed sunburn treatment in the middle of fucking winter. If you have thousands of meteors crashing down on a planet simultaniously, the heat transfer is gonna be ludicrous.

Meanwhile the martians react with "they ruined our sky". And the Earth's UN Ambassador or whoever she is is more concerned with actual stuff earth has on its moon, and not desctrution of the moon resulting in eventual total annihilation.

End of February is open beta. Game has actually gotten alot better in the last few months. Not nearly as jewy as it used to be and they are balancing weapons every week now trying to make everything decent enough for when they go open. Also graffix improvements.

The only problem is that they already killed their own playerbase a long time ago by being a bunch of greedy kikes with terrible systems in the game like durability on parts that would break after a few battles(not in the game anymore). So when they finally go open, it will most likely just be the hardcore fans returning who already liked the game anyway. It will most likely be stillborn.

The one HUGE issue the game has is servers. Theres only 2 servers. Russian server, and North American server. North American server is dead as fuck, so they are forced to play on the russian server which has actual players, which means anybody outside of europe is trying to drive a fast car and shoot at the same time with 200-300+ ping.

>>168047518

>It's probably gonna become F2P bullshit eventualy,

It is a F2P game. It only costs $$$ on steam because thats if you want to get in early.

Once it goe sopen they will probably just sell gold currency and weapon/car packs, but you can play for free just fine.

>>168052147
Free to play game has only 2 servers? Oh, I wonder how do we fix this problem.

Sure overpowered designs would be created, but that's just the nature of module design. The min-maxing could be minimized by adding module durability like gun barrel and engine wear, that'd discourage the chode method of getting the absolute thinnest structure you can without it breaking.

Correct. Read the Steam reviews etc.

Does Factorio actually have a social commentary or are people just meming?

Don't know what the rest of /egg/ thinks about them, but some good spess book series are
Honor Harrington - basically 15 books of tactical and strategic space battles with politics and significant tech development in the background. Unrealistic but internally consistent.

The Lost Fleet - basically same as above

Seveneves- apocalypse and space survival. Everything is an extrapolation of current technology which I found super satisfying.

The Polity series - AI spaceships, weapons, missile carousels, androids, drones etc. Has similarities to the Culture but with a less advanced, more militariatic bent.

Gonna also chuck The Difference Engine in there. Not spess. Basically started the steampunk genre. Describes all sorts of mechanical goodies which I love.

Is Peaceful a trap option? I didn't expect to need to build military things before reaching purple science.

>>168088726
>Aliens can still aggro from pollution
Are you sure you actually enabled it?

The mode clearly says 'aliens don't attack first'. They will attack if a train runs one over or something but not from pollution.

And I don't know what you're doing that makes aliens spawn anywhere but at spawners.

>>168088726
All ayys must hang

>>168089662
I'm pretty sure I did. I got the first alien attack from pollution achievement and after I took care of the spawners near my iron miners at the edge of the factory I got a notification that an electric pole near my steam engines at the center of the factory got destroyed by a biter so that's the only explanation I can think of.

>>168090863
Sometimes a stray biter or two will get lost in transit to a meeting area and will only end up attacking after it times out from not being able to meet up. That's probably what happened. They only spawn at spawners, unless there's a spawner in your base then it won't be spawning there.

Someone took the time to do this, and at no point during that did they consider what the fuck they were doing.

"Look, I left plenty of metal in the flange. I'm sure that's more than enough to take care of any weakness in the web... See, chapter 3, Working with engineered trusses...

No, it's a structural beam, so clearly it was engineered. It shouldn't matter that it's metal or wood."

Good riddance. The generator thing was fucking retarded and I never liked it, and it really needed a redesign for a long whi-

Good riddance, Starmade.

If they'd gone with multiblock systems from the start they wouldn't have needed to fuck around with the silly HP system to get decent ship battle damage effects. They also could have done some balancing by requiring things like heat sinks on the exterior of the ship. It's too bad the development cycle for Starmade is such a mess, I thought it had a lot of potential.

I could barely stop jumping through the few frames in which the stabilizer shears off and the plen drifts into an angle the hueframe can't handle.

>Fucked up the lateral symmetry
wrong retard, left/right have equal number of tiles
>Fucked up the rotational symmetry
First of all that's not even what rotational symmetry means retard, secondly it's because the photo was taken from a slight angle

>>168110962
I didn't even know there was a Tile Internet Defense Force

>>168110962
Also... Did you count the fucking tiles before you made this inane post?

>>168110962

I counted the tiles and you're objectively wrong

Not even close

I've got 200k health and shield and 7 slots and I still feel only medium sized. (mind you, I can steamroller everything thanks to 27k om firepower)

>>168113280
1. As opposed to the post I was replying to initially?
2. No, when something is completely wrong, not just a little off, you're not being pedantic

>>168113245
The sides do have the same amount of tiles, I will say that. But not the same amount of specific colors of tiles. The left inner vertical line has one more than the top-left line, which FUCKS UP THE ROTATIONAL SYMMETRY YOU CUNT

>>168075921
That is sad to read.
On the other hand is retard dedotated wam kiddies getting fucked over, so i'ts a good thing.

>>168113245
Also, bottom left red section is 3 wide, bottom right is 4 wide. Which FUCKS UP THE LATERAL SYMMETRY, YOU CUNT.

You must just be trolling for how objectively wrong everything you claimed is.

>>168107394
Much better than current. Starmade's actual systems are easily the weakest thing about the game right now. All they have to do is allow factories and shipyards on ships and I'll be one happy camper.

That is cool and terrifying at the same time.

If you could point me in the direction of where we were even debating the amount of fuck-ups, I will be impressed.

desu, as long as you don't care about interiors Avorion solves how dull building in games like starmade is by just scaling up the build process.

If you want complexity, Star wanderers looks like it's going to be far better.

Starmade a dead

>>168107394
my initial impression is that changing systems will be for the better
>all those convoluted and not intuitive at all rules
my final opinion is RIP starmade

>>168114775
Every single one of those things has been fucked up. Anon was right. It may have been caused by one single original fuckup, but that many things have been fucked up because of it.

You do not belong in this holy place of geometry and efficiency if you cannot see the error in your ways.

I think I've actually softlocked too due to that bug and I don't think I can play this game ever again.
Honestly, just fuck that so fucking hard, jesus christ, my everything hurts after that.
