Has it got a headless server yet?
If so, I'll be fine with adding it to my startup, and then it'll be available the same hours as the TeamSpeak server.

Alright, I'm waiting to see it happen.

[n9103]

Ask, and ye shall receive.

Thanks for the suggested settings Girl.
I think it's able to be found on the Server list, but I'm not certain yet.

[Girlinhat]

If it's Contested Space, then yes it's up.

[n9103]

It is, and good to know.
Setting it in my startup routine now.

[BadLemonsXI]

I shall play if it go's up.

[n9103]

It's been up for a couple hours now, back when I thanked Girl for the settings.

[BadLemonsXI]

Im having a hard time finding it whats the server name?

[n9103]

Server Name: B12 Sector (kinda obvious really)
Game/World Name: Contested Space
Server Location: USA (because apparently that matters?)
Server IP: Updated IP here.

If you can't find it, apparently it may not come up in search results, in which case, try looking through the list after sorting alphabetically. (as reported by BadLemonsXI)

I have a hard time figuring out just what in the world to do. I'm half tempted to start joining servers specifically so I can look at others' ships. Because I'm creatively inept.

YouTube my friend. All the Tubes.

Eh, actually my biggest problem is my utter lack of sense of scale. I can't conceptualize sizes, for lack of a better way to put it. Like in Minecraft, my homes tend to be rather cramped because I have trouble building things the size I really mean them to be.

In Spengineers, it basically breaks down to Form vs Function.  You can build small, compact, very efficient ships and people will love/hate them, depending how you use them.  Beautiful ships only matter if that's what you're aiming for.  Me and a friend were working on things in survival, and ended up small, ugly little boxes that did amazing jobs.

The smaller it is, while still being fully functional, the more likely it can get out of the way of incoming fire without taking damage.

I have a ship I called The Flying Shoebox.

3 layers of spaced heavy armor, with gyros between the inner and middle hull to act as another layer of protection.
Front side is just a wall of rocket pods.

Looks ugly as sin, especially the second generation variant which has turret towers (with 4 gats and one missile turret per tower) on all 4 sides just jutting out like tumors, but it'll turn most of the pretty ships into slag and fly off with minimal damage.
So I'm quite happy with it.

Hey n9103, do you have any idea how to make it load a saved map consistently? The server runs smooth, which is cool, but it's not really fun to start from scratch every time.
