*sighs* Can't we stick together for once :D ?
We were all together and it kept crashing forsaken's server. Mine is just here because I can run it and to help forsaken's not crash, I can't leave a laptop running more than I already do :)

So, are the IPs for the servers buried somewhere in the thread?

Yes.

What they do is have your homeworld be *your* homeworld, and travel with you to any server you connect, like your ship, so people can showcase their planet to others. Wasn't that going to be the original plan?

What if two people with the same homeplanet joined a server? And what happens when you DC, does it revert to the default or stay as it is, and if that's the case, what's stopping you from just filling a planet with crap, joining a server then DCing, having people loot everything and then repeating it.

I'm pretty sure it's exactly the same as the ship mechanics, just like how you get kicked off someone else's ship as soon as that person disconnects. And the loot trick can be already done with your ship by savescumming: Make a backup of your player data, have people loot your ship, then revert to your backup.

So what happens if you've built something on that planet before the person joins? Does it just get wiped or what.

Decided it was time to pick up this game. Research Purposes, of course.

Still waiting on my pre-order, but I'm rather enjoying playing around with the character creator:

Wait a moment, you aren't part of the dev team? Go fix that immediately.

... I think the more important aspect of that picture is the fact that those two skull hat critters aren't the same height.

Not sure if you're comedically missing the point, but that's two Florans, and one is crouching.
Are you saying Florans can change their height at will? OP.

More to the point, are you saying florans aren't skull hat creatures?

If I only had one word to describe Florans it wouldn't be skull.

It would be SSSSTAB.

Just make different instances of it and let people select which one they fly to from a drop-down list. There's the server's instance, the Player_5_Homeworld instance, and the Player_6_Homeworld instance.

Can a person not simply be hoping to play as short humanoids? Anything to shave off a block from the character model, because I swear the most annoying thing about this game right now is that the dig radius is 3x3 and the character's size 4xwhatever.
