    Storm got a reaction from Jet in Planet-classes   
    this it’s not what should be in the game, just ideas for it .
     
    planet classes and a brief description
    Class D (planetoid or moon with little to no atmosphere)

    The different types of planets/objects that exist are so many that it would be foolish to categorize them into a handful of classes. However, it would be useful to have a general descriptor of major features:
    Size Atmospheric pressure Temperature There could also be some other important traits such as tectonic activity, distance from sun, etc, but for simplicity's sake and due to the fact that DU probably won't model more advanced planetary processes, lets stick with these three traits for now. Please note that these are very vague terminologies.
     
    Size:
    Subsphereical - Too small to form a sphere Micro - Large enough to be spherical, but too small for unaided human habitation without bone decay Massive - Large enough for long-term living Supermassive - Mass too high for long -term habitation without issues, but low enough to not turn into a star Atmospheric Pressure
    Vacuum - No or exosphereic atmosphere Marginal - Enough air to account for but not enough for unpressurized habitation Suitable - Enough air to walk around without pressure suits (THIS DOES NOT GUARANTEE SAFETY FROM ATMOSPHERIC COMPOSITION) Extreme - Too high for unpressurized habitation Temperature (NOT distance from sun or radiation energy received)
    Hadean - Hot enough for molten rocks Gaian - Warm enough for "normal" liquids to stay liquid (i.e. water, gasoline, unsaturated fats) Cryogenic - Cold enough for substances such as methane to be liquid Supercryogenic - Cold enough for liquid H2 This gives us 4^3 or 64 different types, and we are at the tip of the iceburg. Notable real-life objects categorized would be:
    Venus: Massive, Extreme, Hadean Titan: Massive, Suitable, Cryogenic Jupiter, Saturn: Supermassive, Extreme, Cryogenic Uranus, Neptune: Supermassive, Extreme, Supercryogenic

    Yes - i do like your suggestions. For me these are key elements.
     
    Generally for exploring, adventure and depth there should be different stuf from planets to shipwrecks or even ancient relics.
    As well as those ressources that are hard to aquire in good quantities will create a interesting marketplace and jobs for players that are harvesting those.
     
    And as you might have seen on the dev/sugesstion page - gas giants are allready in planning.

    Storm got a reaction from Ardes in Power Armor   
    remove Cloak   for in-game balance
    make power armor  good for hostile planets like molten toxic ect
    make all none combat jobs 3 times slower for balance
    need power packs [like micro-fusion cells from fallout]
    and give power armor night/thermal vision
    power armor should be very expensive and have tires, and only carry 3 ability's 
    so like .i want speed ,shields and radiation resistance

    PERKS
    . gas filtering for resources
    . hard to access bases and facility's  such as a prisons "ect"
    . hiding spot if deep enough
    . catch asteroids in there orbit 
    . disposal of unwanted rivals
    .scuttle ships 
    .Hydrogen reactor fuel
    CONS
    . BIG 
    . Hard to access
    . Have to make a crush depth
    .strong gravity
    .ballast maintenance
    .if you go outside without a suit you'll get pancaked 
    .violent storms and winds
    .if your base is damaged it could easily sink into the abyss
    .very poor sight need a sonar if deep

    Storm reacted to SzaryWilk in Life support module.   
    "Life support module" it is used to support life in environments where there is no oxygen. On planets with no atmosphere, moons, on space ships and space stations, structures constructed underwater.
     
    We build the module with semi-finished products. To work  we need  a oxygen and electricity.
     
    1) such module in "individual version" we can add to our spacesuit. Small version with a small supply of oxygen and energy to operate. When we have a helmet on our head we can use it.
     
    2) on space ships and space stations we can use "individual version" or........we can build a larger version of "Life Support Unit". We do not need to wear a helmet on the head then. We can set it up somewhere on ship or station board. But......there are three classes of this module.
     
    - class I - produces the oxygen needed for 5 people,
    - class II - produces the oxygen needed for 20 people,
    - class III - no limits.
     
    If we have a huge ship and 30 people from our clan is on boerd we can put a few class I modules or one class III.
     
    "People" factor we can replace factor surface (square meters/m2) of ship or station.
     
    For this module we can produce oxygen tanks. They may be of different sizes. We can trade them.

    Storm reacted to Astrophil in Health Issues   
    So, having just started Grey's Anatomy two weeks ago, I, in the midst of an episode, came upon a thought for which I was not entirely sure the manner in which it would manifest itself in Dual Universe. This thought, namely, the concept of in-game health.
     
    Therefore, let me outline a few questions below:
    Will there be a concept of health, not just in HP or energy, but in other palpable effects (from diseases, disorders that have more permanent effects such as lowered HP or visual symptoms, faster death rate), or will medicine have advanced so far that this won't be an issue? And perhaps potential doctor/surgeon roles? Will there be diseases? If so, what kind of effects and diffusion can we expect to see (as in contamination, epidemics)? Should diseases and health problems carry over if you are resurrected? I have a feeling it's much too early to be digging into such in-depth details, as the fundamental mechanics are still being laid out and refined, but exploring the concept a bit ought to be interesting.

    Storm reacted to GUNWOLF in My take on Trains   
    Right, I’ve heard that rails aren’t going to be implemented because of issues with multi-part constructs and I wanted to show my idea on how we could do trains.
    My idea is that instead of rails in the traditional sense, we add a gps-based system. The “trains” would be simply hovercraft traveling between two points. How this would work is that a player would place at least two “beacons” and it would create a link between them. The “train” would have a special antenna that would cause it to automatically try to stay on the line directley between the beacons. The disadvantage is that you can only have one train per segment, so you would need to have a lot more than two beacons. You can switch the link between two beacons manually or with a Lua script, meaning that multiple branch lines can be made. The trains themselves can be manually or automatically controlled, and I think it would be cool to have a railway network going around Ailoth. What do you more skilled players than I think of this idea?

    Provide an option to recycle elements & materials back to their sub components ore's. Each time would reduce the amounts returned as a cost of processing. Perhaps this might require equipment or skills to drive  performance levels.

    Storm reacted to RoboFS in Power Armor   
    So I looked online and saw that no one else had posted this, so i decided to do it myself, its simple really.. Power Armor.
    Basically power armor would be armor you could modify to assist you in combat, the power armor could also be able to be customized, with different types of helmets, different colors, and emblems on the power armor. The power armor would make you look bulky compared to the normal person, as well as make you taller (i'd suggest like 8 ft tall)
    Some ideas for modifications to the power armor:
    Cloak - Would allow you to pretty much become invisible for a small amount of time.
    Speed - Would make you much faster, good for travel, or escaping from a bad fight.
    Strength - Being able to carry more stuff, and if melee weapons are added, it would add extra damage to melee weapons.
    Accuracy - Making your character more accurate with their guns.
    Shield - Adds a buff to your base shield charge.
    Health - Adds a buff to your base health
    Power Armor Only Weapons - Weapons that are too heavy duty for people without power armor to carry, maybe advanced assault rifles, miniguns, etc.
    This idea is essentially for making super-soldiers for factions with advanced technology.

    It look cool. And also there is another ArkShip for us to discovery when we can go to another system.
    I think they can use your idea about that ArkShip get damage and life support turn off and kill all passenger and crew then player have to fix it. After fixing that ArkShip can become a spawn point.
