Greetings capsuleers!

As some of you may be aware, Team TriLambda have been hard at work making a new build effect which will be coming out in the next release. This effect should currently be present on all anchoring Player-Owned-Starbases and associated anchorable structures.

This work has required refactoring in a lot of old systems, therefore we are interested in getting any feedback you might have. There are a few known issues that are currently being worked on at the moment, of which I have listed below:
• Nano container (the egg) left behind on SOV blockade and Outpost Structures (effect still to be implemented on these structures)
• Titan Yard build effect Z-fighting
• Outposts and Customs Office Gantry will disappear after anchoring

If you notice anything that looks odd or out of place please file a bug report and comment in this thread (Preferably from the in-client bug reporting tools, accessible from the button at the bottom of the F12/Help menu)

ooOOooh, I got to give you your very first like.

Nice work on the new animations - they looked good at fanfest. I'm looking forward to them in game.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

Looks quite nice on the towers. The "holo wireframe" for lack of a better term is a nice approximation of what our ship computers should be feeding our brains. If you wanted to get Star Trek on it though, I suppose structures should assemble themselves from the centre outwards, rather than edges meeting in the middle. But whatevs. vOv

For the many, many armchair developers "asking" why do this to structures exiting the game... you do understand visual effect code can be ported to new models too, right? They're not spending weeks rendering cutscenes of control towers over there.

Do not actively tank my patience.
