Oxygen isn't my favorite feature and I hope that's the last of the tedious maintenance-type features they add to "Survival" and they add more environmental challenges (and rewards).

rossmum posted:After several false starts at a new design of my own, I've gone back to my half-baked project of converting GotLag's exploration ships into a destroyer. This time I actually chopped them together to make the ship slightly larger, and totally gutted the interior to give myself room to work with. It's turning out pretty well so far, just needs some finishing touches (and some real punch, to make it worth of the title). I like this. I'm doing something similar just scaled up a bit (one additional deck, about 60 meters longer). It's still something of a drone carrier but also has an internal hanger. I was going to build in a 3D printer but I can't find the room for it.

It's goofy, sure, but at least a rotating sun provides a (minor) environmental challenge for "survival" mode. I am curious though if the sun rotation with meteors will turn the entire thing into rocket arena though.

Still very much a work in progress, but making a more "traditional" carrier heavily influenced by GotLag's Duchessa/Contessa series of ships. This is the second go at it, using only vanilla blocks and trying to keep it a reasonable size. Only the upper hull section and aft thruster sections are complete.

Collision avoidance gives objects a wide, wide berth so if you're doing some precision autopilot stuff (like auto docking) it won't work. Someone would bitch regardless of the default setting.

Last I know it doesn't function quite right, center if lift is thrown off since stuff attached to rotors counts as different grids.

I've seen a guided missile example on the workshop, and a variant that packs a bunch of gyros in the nose so they scatter after impact. I will dig up the link when I get to a computer. I don't know how effective they are, those missiles.

Is it me, or are flight controls inverted despite settings? When I go to check on them they start to work the way I expect them to.

Moving beyond the sandbox is what the scenario editor is for. That thing needs to be more robust, or moddable in itself.

There's a mod I've been tinkering with off and on, adding two different grades of armor blocks (Medium and Super Heavy.) Still need to math things out to be consistent (it's based off of vanilla values) but I wondered if anyone was interested in something that's, well, boring like that. And, of course, I need to do some texture work (using vanilla assets for now.)

I "made" (vanilla models, just changed values) a mod that is a straight upgrade of vanilla ion thrusters that function well in atmosphere. They're a bit more expensive, requiring as many superconductor conduits as thruster components, have an idle power draw as much as hydrogen thrusters, provide about 85% as much thrust as a hydrogen thruster, and overall better power efficiency over ions. In short, the only 'balance' i tried to build it was up front build cost, after that I didn't give a poo poo. They're also significantly more damaging with the thruster flame so your light armor landing platforms will get melted by these things if you get too close. The engine flame effect is also a pretty rad purple.  Would anyone be interested?

I wonder how one defines the mount points, if that is something in the model itself or the .sbc files. I haven't had time to sit down and figure out blender yet, so I hope it is in the .sbc's.

Learning how to model (and texture) due to this game, and the new blocks they showed off .. I want to emulate that style but it's kind of intimidating.

True. I just find Blender to be an unintuitive mess, sadly. And SE itself is fiddly as poo poo, I've had some thrusters melt themselves on the small ship version but the large are fine.

Been doing a simple armor mod on the side (adds medium and super-heavy armor) while I learn how to model, messing with texturing and such. Uses Keens base textures but did a little messing around to add slightly dulled or shinier patches and unpainted spots and scratches. It's rather neat how the various channels in the image adjust things. e: oops, accidentally deleted the puush. Sorus fucked around with this message at 00:49 on Sep 6, 2016 |

 Super-Heavy, Heavy, Medium, Light. Futzing about. Managed to remove the camo pattern from heavy (it's for the super-heavy on the far left) without just swapping it with light armor.

The original plan for super-heavy was to make it appear like much larger plates, nearly seamless, not like the smaller smattering of plates like light and heavy.

Neddy Seagoon posted:At least they're finally putting some work into parallelization, because goddamn is that a bottleneck they should've sorted months ago. It's probably almost a direct result of Xov's stream the other night where a bunch of people dead a Battlefield like deathmatch, with auto-respawning grids and such (it was pretty fun, but was really only stable in a 4v4 setup). The turret reload time was a direct result of that too. The auto-spawning grid thing Draygo-somethingorother came up with is kinda neat, and I am thinking of a space based DM map using it.

Ambaire posted:I need to build a new regular ship soon so I stop getting red text constantly when trying to upgrade this one... but I'm slightly worried about getting caught in the open with a rogue meteor storm. I suppose a possible solution is to excavate a cavern. Is it possible to just do land clear mode with the ship mounted drills or is that a feature of the hand tool only? Another option, instead of building a new ship, is build a new "station" on the ground, add a merge block, put another merge block on your ship and just connect.

About a month back I played an SE map that had respawning grids and the goal was to knock out the enemy bases power. Putting together something similar but space based. I can import into one if the multiplayer branches something made in stable/dev, yeah? Might be an ideal way of testing, shooting the poo poo out of each other.
