Also, here's a question, koonschi:

 

did you just made thrusters obsolete? what's the point of having them, if they do nothing now?

 

Well,

 

As I said, you have to rebuild your ships. Don't compare your old ship build in old vs new versions, that's not going to work. Mechanics were changed. I gave you new blocks, use them, then come back and give feedback.

 

Overall thruster power went up. They apply stronger forces. The thing that got nerfed was the rotational behaviour, as I already said. I removed artificial strength in different locations leading to a reduction of rotational speed to 1/6 of its earlier value. It got nerfed hard and I'm working on a better solution other than to artificially crank values up.

 

If you don't believe me on the numbers, build an engine, build a directional brake thruster of the same size, and compare the brake thrust to the engine thrust. Use the new directional thrusters to adjust your stats.

 

 

Yeah, yeah, I get it, don't sweat it.

I just got frustrated that my ship is a brick now - I'll build a new ship.

You could use the tool to select blocks by drawing a frame around them.

Alternatively, if you click on the merge block button, it should try to merge everything as good as possible. If the thrusters are connected, you would end up with a lot less blocks.

 

Edit: I have fixed your image to show up in the post :)

 

thanks for the fix.

 

I would use the frame, if the thrusters were in good spots, but some are completely hidden under layers and layers of other ship parts.

my transformed biggest thrusters changed my ship into a torch. looks cool though

As stated in the patch notes, you'll have to rebuild your ship. With correct placement of thrusters you should be able to get a normal ship flight feeling. And please stop thinking that I don't update anything any more once a patch is live. I'm doing the exact opposite in fact: I put it live in beta so you can give feedback.

 

Also: Previously rotational speed was artificially increased to be 6 times as strong as it should be. I simply removed/fixed this.

(I dunno how to add pictures on here, it says 2k blocks on a small-size ship)

 

Dude, c'mon.. can't you give us at least a tool that allows us to select every same block on the ship (eg: middle click twice said thruster to select every thruster there is) so we can easily remove it? I have a small army of radiator thrusters!
