How Massive can you build in Starship EVO? 

Thanks a lot for showing my battleship! It has progressed a fair bit since the blueprint i sent you. Smoother, with a slender back end and with an (almost) fully decorated first deck!

LOD tech would be amazing for these larger builds with fine details but would be a lot of work to get right considering the creativity that can be done within the game. Interested in how you would tackle that. Have you thought about potentially merging polys on flat planes if possible?

- so how much french accent do you want ? - yes

you really explain this well

Got this game a week ago and can’t stop playing. I love the challenge of having to figure out the engineering/mechanics of something as simple as a cargo ramp and bay doors for turrets etc. I haven’t had a game challenge me like this in ages.

The build tech in this game is amazing. I backed it a couple weeks ago and am really hoping it makes it to full release.

Another cool video. If have a small request (hopefully), although I haven't got the latest update yet so maybe this is already there. I can see you created letters from the decals, which is great but they are large. Would it be possible to have a decal where custom text is allowed for signs above doors, on walls and stuff like that? Something so we could indicate that it's Engineering, Medical, Docking Bay 1, Docking Bay 2 etc. I think it would be a nice addition, especially for larger ships and stations.

We could all build a lot bigger and faster if the invisible block bug was fixed. Having to reload every 20-30 minutes has killed my desire to try and build anything at the moment. The bug has been reported and commented on many times and my concern is that it will not be fixed adequately before early access release. It really doesn't matter how much the engine can handle if there is no stability. Lack of stability will harm early access multiplayer and that could easily cripple adoption of this wonderful project.

Keep up the fantastic work François!

@Francois I noticed the modularity used on space stations and now the large builds being showcased. I am wondering if you have your eyes on making some more building tools like copy-paste. I haven't had the drive to make starships since setting up turrets is a hassle if you got even a few. Should we expect anything like that soon?

Just asking, can you make the background stars more randomized about colour? like some stars white or whatever you want, just to make some diversity.

This looks great will be keeping my eye on this one!

even today, this is super helpful. thank you for your beautiful game

Je viens de tester ton jeu (coucou les promo steam), et franchement bravo... si tu continues dans ce sens, tu vas récupérer tous les fans de space engineers ! ton concept est bien plus élaboré sur des choses qui peuvent paraitre tout bête mais qui vont libérer la créativité : le mélange de 2 tailles de grid, la déformation des block pour obtenir exactement le forme que tu veux... Hate de voir la suite :-) Merci !

I love this occlusion thing, so much potential for building massive vessels

I hope you know how much potential your game has, its insane!

Ce jeu m'a l'aire tellement prometteur !! hâte de voir la suite du dev =)

The game looks great! A friend introduced me to this and I'll definitely be getting it! I am curious though is ship pressurization going to be a gameplay mechanic with survival mode?

Will there be an advanced build mode/overhead build perspective? I would love planes of symmetry and other tools to speed up building, perhaps as a shipyard

Great to see. :) I'm trying to build some sort of bar/pub station module (new to it but it's getting there) - was there a deadline by which you need all submissions? I figure this would be a cool module for players to hang out, get items or tasks from npcs and maybe a place for some kind of bounty board in the future - good to know what I'm building won't stress things compared to these huge ships. :)

Please keep working hard the game looks so amazing

this might be a good competitor with StarBase. As in, sandbox spacegame

Vous faites du travail très propre. Félicitations.

I LOOOOOOVE this game thanks for making it and hope for many more years of improvements and more in terms of survival also down the road.

My dream is for a game to be able to build ships, travel between stars and land on/explore planets. This game has ticked two of those boxes so far. No Man's sky, and Space Engineers combined could be Starship Evo.

OMG ! Awesome Yamato !

what kinda specs is you rig running to get such huge craft built in your game?

thank you so much for making a system able to make super massive ships i am always let down by how you cant really build scale models of star destroyers or super star destroyers in space engineers

So it should be possible to build a 1:1 Macross SDF1 complete with Macross city inside it ?

Best sandbox UNSC frigate I’ve ever seen

dude this system is genuis i think this game is revolutionary

I wonder what the performance would be with two or three huge ships near a space station, can imagine it would put some strain on the lower end GPUs

Can someone link the blueprints for the builds in this video?

This looks great! Are there plans to allow for larger servers to run so people can have big battles?

Interesting, I still have enemies and habitable planets in mind, but it looks great. Cheers.-

I like how much you optimized the game to run smoothly. With the current update the intro/tutorial is bugged for me, so I have to leave the space station with no clip mode. Still I commend you for the building mechanics

Occlusion culling by perspective culling on thew GPU? Awesome! But how do you want to implement LOD for physics without making parts of the ship "inactive"?

Are there explosions when ships get hit? Or do the blocks just dissapear?

Impressive. We bought 3 copies to support you.

Yo was that a halo UNSC light battle frigate?

Those HD1s you wearin?

whats up with the blue starfield?

Amazing game! Looking foward for more material about it. But... Technicaly speaking, what makes it Windows only? I mean, can it be ported to platforms like Macs, which uses Metal 2 as it's 3D foundation with a sufficient rost of devs? If not, despise the overuse of onboard GPUs this platform, what kind of features does Metal 2 / Mac OS lacks to do a proper porting of this kind of game?

The game so far have the biggest amount of potential I've ever seen beside elite Dangerous and Starshitizen, I would like to know if there was any kind of tripple a publisher who offered too work with u so far. And what ur opinion at this is

is the game going to have some sort of steam workshop

François pense tu que se sera compliquer de construire un vaisseau de la taille de l'USS Vengeance du film Star trek Into darkness, étant donné qu'il fait 1400 mètres de long et 500 mètres de large ? et aussi, est ce que dans Starship EVO, les blocs sont calé sur le Système métrique ?

Amazing! Will this game feature exploring other planets, building outposts, trading, quests? And survival aspects? Like growing crops, basic needs food, water, oxygen?

Could you build ships at 100 km?

Will you ever allow custom content as far as the space suits and helmet on the workshop like if a player faction is made and they have a custom suit that differentiates from the others so you know that you are in a group!

just you wait, people are going to build the enterprise to the littlest details you could ever imagine.

Can the player increase the build tool scale? Like StarMade, you can edit a config to make the build tool go way beyond the defaults, basically as big as you're computer can handle. Was essential in that game for large builds. Could take the default 10 block length and make it into say 100 or even 500 blocks long.

Your game is genius. I am dying to try it. My current pc is way to slow. I have several ship designs I want to try.

ok so basically Stormworks... _in space._

Do you think you’ll ever consider bringing the game to console in the future if it does well after it’s released?

Do I have to build my ship all the time or are there pre-built ships that I can pilot also?

Nice!

Can we build ships with spin gravity?

When is this coming out ?

Mec, t'es un génie 🔥

this game looks so fun :)

French accent is always legendary

You need to contact Robbaz ! He's a famous youtuber who plays this type of games and make it very entertaining, I'm absolutely sure he and his followers would love this !

i really like this game but i dont like how you need rotators to make a perfect circle. its just frustrating to try and do and you should just add placement blocks to where you can make a perfect saucer at any size

What's your hardware? I assume you need to have a decent computer to run the game, especially with big ships like this?

Do you think it would ever be possible to make say a 1:1 scale S.S.D Executor from start wars

This game is moving a lot farther than starmade ever did.

Is there a creative mode on starship evo?

Id be interesting to see a warhammer 40k stuff with this.

I've just bought the game. Which anime for that Yamato?

This is so good, cant wait to build my own drone carrier

I hope this game gets resource extraction and trading. Maybe even factories so players can mine resources, produce goods and sell them on galactic market

StarshipEvo Are you gonna post ships to the workshop? :D

So, does the game have a Core Gameplay Loop? If not, are you planning to add one? What I mean by that is, a game like Minecraft has the Core Gameplay Loop of: -Go out -Find resources -Return to base Which is kept interesting because basic resources enable you to create tools which enable you to find more advanced resources which enable you to create more advanced tools, enabling you to create the best gear and build the best base, enabling you to tame your environment and survive its dangers... there's a constant sense of progression. Space Engineers kinda fell flat here, because there were basic resources... and that was it. Once you had a ship that could process the basic elements and produce components... that's it. There's nothing to do in Space Engineers other than build ships, and the ships have no purpose other than to show off to your friends. In Minecraft, there are challenges to build up to, obstacles in the game world that can be overcome once you've acquired powerful tools and resources, which provide a sense of purpose to finding things. In Space Engineers, there are no such challenges; no missions or obstacles or opponents to be overcome by clever design or acquisition of powerful resources. At the moment, it seems as though Starship EVO is in the same boat. I understand that the game is early-access, and you are a one-man design team, which I think is awesome, but I think the game will be much better off for having an engaging Core Gameplay Loop. In other words, don't be Space Engineers, be Minecraft.

Deathstar inbound!

Will there be AI's all over the game doing random things just like the way the player would?

Oula ca sonne francais la voix XDD En tout cas bravo le jeu est très prometteur est semble etre plutot facile a faire tourner je vais voir pour me le procurer alors :D Courage aux devs!!

I can't stay still in space. My jetpack is useless and I'm constantly moving in one direction without clicking anything.

Its readlly nice to hear about the technical stuff about the game. Very Sexy ;p

i might just leave SE for this

All i see is people building ships . What can you do with them once theyre built? Is there any point in all these weapons and armour?

I hope in a survival mode... I totally hope it...

From what anime is this amazing yamato ?

Enfin un super jeu venant d un développeur français

Wow, its very big 🌚, ship😂

Ooooh

Can I build a Battlestar?

YAMATO!

But can we make Warhammer ships in the game?

Man this game is so cool. @bluedrake42

i like your accent

a european game without portuguese language, gentlemen devs, i'm not asking for portuguese from Portugal translations i'm asking portuguese from brazil for a simple reason portuguese from brazil the portuguese understand perfectly and brazilians are the biggest community of gamers that they speak portuguese, i'm sure if the game was in portuguese from Portugal they would accept that too, well, if they don't have translators i can do portuguese from Portugal translation. greetings here from Portugal ps: the portuguese language is spoken all over the world by 400 million people, the portuguese language is spoken in Portugal, Brazil and some African countries and maybe in other countries but I'm not 100% sure, companies in the united states ignore the portuguese language it's normal, now a company that is from europe this is surreal, Portuguese speaking gamers around the world we are close to 150 thousand players, I think it's enough to make a translation in Portuguese, don't you think?

Please make a android and iphone version of the game please put it on playstore pleaseee
