#The Solution to Economy - The Exchange

I'll make this short, sweet, and simple. Runescape has a feature in it called the Grand Exchange. How this works is a player goes out to gather what ever resource they want to sell. Then goes to the grand exchange to sell it.

They open the menu select the item they want to sell and it gives them the MEDIAN price for that item. You can then click a button to adjust the price lower/higher by 5%

Once the item sells it gives you a notification, buying is done in the exact same way only it...

Hello!

Aside from managing social media I work on a lot of the in-game assets that will be present in the StarMade universe. A few others and I will use this thread to show off the work being done on the latest builds and maybe tease future releases. We will also talk about the design philosophies that go into each build and help define who these factions are and why they build the way they do!

Now we want to give some personality and purpose...

Hazardous materials and Hazardous Material Storage

In the future, rare resources may come into play. It would be fun and challenging if some such resources were also highly volatile and hazardous. This would provide additional challenges when handling and transporting these materials.

Hazards might include:
  1. Poison/damage over time on contact with the material
  2. Slow radiation damage when close to the material
  3. Instant damage on contact with the material
  4. Explodes if shot or bumped
  5. Explodes if stepped on (YIKES!)
  6. Might...

Recently I was building a X-wing and had some problems with the moving wings. After consulting the forums, I learned rails can only hold a position that is at a 45 degree interval. I came up with an idea afterwards that will solve my problem and I think others in the future as well. Before I say what it is, please note that I have no coding experience and have no idea how hard this would be to implement into the game.

My idea is to make it so rails have a menu where you can adjust the...

I'm sure everyone has their favorite, sadly the starting formation isn't mine (bit of a collision nightmare). Sadly most formations are aircraft based and thus flawed in they need to account for gravity, vision and turbulence (none of which apply in space). Here are my suggestions for a formation (and it's math) as a good non-colliding default:
  • Flagship used as start/center of formation and it's dimensions are the 'default' spacing.
  • Spacing is fixed based on the mean...

I think I've finally shaken the builder's block (is that a thing) that's been giving me trouble over the past few weeks. I finally have something going that I really like.

I just spent maybe an hour or so blocking in the basic shape. I'm a fan of smooth hull panels, but I do want to add a lot more detail. Those rectangular glowy things on the bottom are supposed to be some sort of anti-grav by the way.

What do you...

It was brought to my attention that the ElwynEternity server of old was dearly missed by the community at large and so. With permission from the Elwyn Eternity owner, Gravypod. I will be resuming the legacy of the ElywnEternity server in the following weeks.

This server will introduce a faction point system that requires the claiming of systems near ones home base system to maintain homebase invulnerability. Further this server...

I am the current leader of the Furon Empire and I am in the process of recruiting new blood for our mighty empire. We can be located on the Shattered Skies Server.

History: We started out as the Furion Empire about 2 years ago and have gone from that to the UNSC before finally settling on The Furon Empire. Ever since our foundation we have been dedicated to building new types of ships, galactic domination and space exploration. We have been involved in the great server wars of the sunworld...

Venting - So hard to find a decent server

Ugh, I am having a devil of a time trying to find an acceptable server to play on these days.

It seems nobody really does a plain vanilla PvE server anymore. Everybody is "Huge mining bonus!/Hardcore 1x mining bonus only", "No solo factions", "Vote for our server and get God Mode!", "Block limits, no ships over 500m!", "No shop spawns!", "500 million Starting Credits!", "Enhanced Pirates!", or is a PvP server.

Is it really so much to ask for these days that if you say you're running a...

This is a concept where a person can create a Holographic station and "Call" other people with it. They would appear on each other's holographic display, looking like the holographic ships do when building on a shipyard.

This would have 3 parts: two platforms and one computer. One platform would be used to project yourself, the other would receive the projection of someone else. To project yourself to another platform, you'd need to basically call it. Every Holographic station would...

Yes, I know that it is a big ship, but what I would like to know, (without starting another debate on ship classifications) is what sort of stats each of you personally considers to be a titan? And not just in terms of size, but stats as well. How much power cap? e/s? Shields? Thrust? Armor?
Would especially love to hear from some folks with pvp faction experience (just vague numbers is great, no need to give away your best ships' secrets).

Greetings fellow shipbuilders!

With the recent updates i think it is about time we lift space combat to the next level. Also the next level of AI design showing what the real demand in that regard would be since we can't commandeer all of our fleets alone.

So i thought we are doing a competition to figure out our skills as builders of efficient war machines aka drones.

So, I just did a little off-the-cuff experiment with tertiary weapon effects and got some rather unexpected results. And then I took pictures of those results because I figured no one would believe me otherwise.

I was slapping together a small sniper beam turret for a ship I've been making and I couldn't decide what tertiary effect to use. Many people here on the forum seem to swear by pierce effect, so I decided to try that. And then I decided to try Overdrive, Explosive, and...

In community content, you used to have time ranges for most downloads and most popular. This allowed us to see what people liked this week, this month, this year or all time, rather than having the only way to see the most popular is to see the most popular all time, spotlighting only the most well known content, making it very difficult for new stuff to become known.

Reddit does this.
Steam Workshop does this.
This site once did this. please bring it back
