For fucks sake why don't they just make a craftable mining helmet. What the hell is a backpack lantern anyways? Do you wear a lantern on your back... to light up poo poo behind you? Doesn't even make sense.

The other planet in this system (II) has a huge-rear end Floran complex to the left of spawn that ALSO will give you insane-o loots and I found a drumset which is loving hilarious to play midi songs on because every bit of it is atonal and it just makes different drum sounds corresponding to each note. although I didn't get poo poo for good weapons at the first planet it had good mineral wealth (Platinum and Diamonds down below)

Rhonyn Peacemaker posted:God damnit. I'm going to destroy all my poo poo arn't I. Try wacking some loose dirt with it, it has nice large radius and kinda fun for tunneling through hills with it. Also if you have wooden platforms, with chests on them or stuff like that in your ship, keep in mind that platforms are I think one of the easiest to break blocks in the game. This is assuming all of that style of weapon work the same way. Mine was called Pirate Rockthunker and I love it. Also keep in mind that 30s despawn rate of dropped items while you are scrambling to place chests and refill them with stuff even though your inventory just got filled with everything dropped from the chests, except for the chests themselves. peepsalot fucked around with this message at 23:24 on Dec 11, 2013 |

TMMadman posted:Second, get rid of the pick and axe and just make the MM the go to tool and upgradable to be faster (and possibly bigger area). I also hope they start making larger furnaces so you can smelt multiple items at once. Also, keep everything on your ship running when you beam down and give us a green room for growing vegetables. It's kind of a problem how they don't grow unless someone's on the planet. Rhonyn Peacemaker posted:God damnit. I'm going to destroy all my poo poo arn't I.

So I decided to try to find out why Armor worked in beta sector and was useless in Alpha, and here is what I found: Steam\SteamApps\common\Starbound\assets\leveling contains the folders that control scaling. For instance, it's got monsters.config which allows you to scale the variation on monster difficulty (monsters are .0 at day, .5 more dangerous at night, .75 more underground, etc!) This folder also contains a file that controls armor scaling, and these are it's contents: code:

Doesn't even make sense. I'd rather have a light taking up my back slot than my helmet slot with potentially lower defense than whatever helmet I'd otherwise be wearing, personally. Plus it could always be some shoulder-mounted lamp or something! Being equipped on the back doesn't mean it has to be physically on the character's back.

There's a head accessory slot though, could just make it a headlamp band. that works in conjunction with your armored helmet. Or maybe that's a neck slot? Only thing I've found so far for that slot was a sort of neckerchief.

There are some recipes to smelt alloys, oddly enough (as in multiple bars in the input = 1 bar in the output). I don't know that they'll offer true "input 1 -> output 1" "input 2 -> output 2" in one furnace though.

I would not mind the hunger mechanic if this game had the much mentioned alongside it pause button. Though at the very least, it could to do have food to fill your hunger more. I can understand that most fresh from the ground plants only fill two bars, but having that first bit of alien meat from a monster who can take off half your health in one shot cooked over a campfire (because it can't be made on a wooden cooking table ) fill only THREE bars is a letdown, no matter how much they adjust the meat drop rates for what weapon. Hunting bow is a joke and too risky to try and finish off enemies you wore down with melee because of how fast most of them are (when not spamming ranged attacks). The Iron Bow still takes two, SOMETIMES three shots on it's own, and the most "harmless" wildlife on my world is also very short and very fast, so once it get's close good loving luck hitting them with a bow before they shred you. The top half of my ship is lined with dirt to grow wheat, because at least bread fills 6 bars. I'd grow food at planetary spawn points but they don't like to grow most of the time when I do that for some reason.

Clocks posted:Yeah, it's unfortunate that it seems like boss drops weren't balanced yet. I picked up like 3 legendary cloud/bubble swords and they were all really bad. Oh well. Did you get one named Cthulu Killer? Genocyber posted:Did you do it pre-hotfix or with a character made prior to the hotfix? Cause then the damage of the Iron Bow is much higher than it should be. It now takes 2 or three shots to take out one segment of its health bar. About this, my hotixed character's iron swords I had already made were nerfed. Does this mean this was not the case for pre-existing iron bows like it was not the case for starter weapons keeping their old stats? Because oh lord, if "Three shots, maybe two" is TOO STRONG against the spawn world wildlife, gently caress bows, just gently caress them.

If that's all you've edited just have Steam verify your files to replace anything that isn't the standard file that's still sticking around and it should be fine to edit again.

You might want to delete your coalore.item before verifying - Steam will always download a missing file, but I don't think verifying integrity with Starbound catches modified assets, which was probably done intentionally so that you don't lose your mods every time you verify.peepsalot posted:Cosmetic is something affects your appearance. Adding light would affect appearance. Cosmetic in games these days (after the advent of f2p microtransaction games) generally means "purely cosmetic", adding light adds additional functionality to your character by affecting gameplay. Anything in a cosmetic slot will serve absolutely no function; mining hats in Terraria's cosmetic slots had their light disabled.
