Sweden not really swedish im dutch
I don't know enough about the missions to various planets, but am I wrong in thinking that the engines are not burning for the entire duration of the trip. I mean I'm sure more is used during an acceleration phase to get there faster, but for the sake of simplicity as Dex Luther said can't we say that they cut the engines at roughly the same time and coast the remainder of the trip? Roughtly the same amount of fuel burned.

Ah! But oh no!

How does our spaceship just magically go to Mars with the same fuel use and time as going to the Moon?

Armed with my incredibly valid idea, I shall CRUSH your pathetic little argument! Muahaha!

-.- mic says no to the idea though

Thanks for supporting my idea. How cool would it be if you, say, built a pre-designed ship which would fly around space and allow you to go out in a space suit and mine asteriods, explore abandoned space ships/ stations and would launch you in a drop pod (EG: HEV pods from Halo) onto the surface of planets?

Yeah there's a game like that. It's called. NOT THIS ONE. You should go play it.

My ideas for Galacticraft
Pre-designed spaceships that at like space-stations. Above planets it would say "Build spaceship in orbit" above (or below) the "build a space station" button and you could go into an editing mode (kind of like the one in starmade or whatever), where you would use the items in your inventory to create a pre-designed space ship or a space ship of your design. Ideas for it are:
  1. A flip thing like a mirror that would clone the side of the ship you are building (Provided you have the materials). It would not include small things like the hibernation chambers, chests or anything that hasn't been specified. Those must be placed separately
  2. Engines which can power it towards wherever it is specified. They must have an engine room.
  3. Controls which you can use to fly your ship in real-time or fast travel to the destination. Life support, communications, shields, weapons and hull plating are needed for ships.
Also there should be loads of aliens from different games, such as halo, xcom enemy unknown/within, Aliens v.s. Predators, etc
There should be randomly generated worlds with different biomes and possibly a civilization.
New weapons, such as plasma weapons from halo and xcom, Mass-drivers from halo and more.
New elements such as Elerium, Meld, Titanium and more.
New Vehicles like Warthogs, Scorpions, Skyrangers, UFOs and more.
Crew are required for ships. You must hire them and also hire specific ones that look after critical systems. They can be from 100s of different species (as long as you are friendly with that species). More are required for bigger ships.
Base raiding and ship boarding to add more fun and rewards.
Motherships with hundreds of weapons. Each species has a different one.
Jaegers and Kaijus from pacific rim, including many of the ones from the films and your own custom models, each with addons like plamsa cannons, swords and more.
Warp Cores to allow really fast travel.
Elysium Weapons, vehicles, etc.
Genetic Modifications.
Titans from Titanfall, along with weapons and armour.
Shatterdomes from Pacific Rim.
Health Restoration beds that heal deadly wounds (But they cost loads).
Automatic saftey belts.
When the ship gets holed, all the air rushes out and sucks crew out too.
Ship rams.
Civilian ships and trade ships which you can raid.
Special chests and pipes that connect to cargo loaders/ unloaders that will take the stuff out of rockets or put them into rockets.
Alien space ship crash sites that have loot and (maybe) some surviving crew.
In-atmosphere ships that you can use to fly around.
Exploration robots to land on planets if you can't. They should be controlled from a computer that is taken along with you.
Anomilies like Meteors (Can be mined), space ship/ station wrecks (can be boarded an explored) and wormholes (that teleport you to other systems).
Spaceships that are built out of Atmoshere that you can use to attack other ships, explore wrecks, mine asteriods and shoot you out of the ship in a drop pod (eg: HEVs from Halo).

I would like more ideas please! And I will also be updating this as often as I can.
Maybe more original content and minecrafty content than stuff from other games, this isn't a Halo, Alien, Predator, xcom etc mod it is its own mod, but it would be kinda cool to have civilization bearing planets and multiblock ships like the old zeppelin mod for minecraft 1.2.5 ish, and more planets than in our own solar system

yeah i know. It would be cool if there were those aliens in though. Maybe even just one or two.

Like the games, hate the fact that you make it sound like it SHOULD be them.
Not saying it should be them. I just think it would be cool to have some aliens like those ones.
