Neolithic Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 So I was watching videos from the Dual Universe channel: Dual Universe - YouTube And I saw how big the cores for building were. After seeing the sizes of them, I wondered if they could ever be resized to smaller versions but with the same functionality, preferably for smaller ships, such as: pods. --------------------------------------------------------- Check Out My YouTube Channel: MaxedMASKED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Void Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 There will be several sizes of cores ranging from small to large Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord_Void Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 lol no that would be a little dumb. I think they have the art for the different sizes somewhere, but can't remember where Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord_Void Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Yep. That's the one. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevisDevine Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Awesome, I wouldn't want to have a freighter as an escape pod. Sure you would. When youre stuck drifting in space for a few months youll be glad you had to room to pack some more food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Will each core have a building limit? Like you can't have more than 100m diameter to your ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevisDevine Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Will each core have a building limit? Like you can't have more than 100m diameter to your ship? Im sure someone has more specifics, but yes. It seems that each core size increases the side of the build. Not sure if its a block count, I recall it being a volume build space. Bigger cores have larger volumes. Now we had a discussion recently regarding this. It was mentioned having unlimited build size. So is this done by having the largest core infinite in build size (seemed to be the suggested mrthod when first brought up last year), or can you tack on more cores to increase the size where needed. I dont know which, and I dont recally anyone having a confirmed answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockeray Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I would hope that they have the cores limit the size of your construct (the largest being infinite sounds good). It would seem strange to have a pocket sized core tucked away somewhere in a capital vessel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Void Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I agree. I like the idea of needing the larger cores to build massive constructs. I hope the bigger sizes have similarly higher build costs to make so as to balance things out a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurock Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I would think that each core gives an ever increasing building area based on the size of the core, but the largest is not infinite, just very big. Then to build even larger constructs, cores would be linked to make ever larger constructs. Course, the more cores the more expensive the construct would be. Though NQ might have a completely different way of doing things. We will find out...soonTM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shockeray Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I would agree other than the issues of what has to be done with these extra cores. If you build to max with one core, add another core, and then add a bit more material, what happens when you try to move/remove the core? Can you not until the material drops below the single core limit again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least raise a flag and make the ship inoperable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you not until the material drops below the single core limit again? A Core provides an area you can build in. You cannot build outside that area. With core linking (if NQ go this route) it does raise the issue of whether cores should be removable at all. But yes, a solution could be to not allow the removal of a core if 1) it leaves any voxel or element outside of the new building area and 2) does not break the ship into multiple disconnected parts or disconnected build areas.

0something0 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I think the removal of a core should cause the ship to leave those parts(and other parts, including other core) when launched and moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireStormNova Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 So I would have to think that the larger the core the more materials need and the higher the price right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuritho Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 The core size is just a sex joke waiting to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
