Stoat posted:Is there a reason why every planet I can find is threat level 1? The level range got much smaller a couple patches ago. Alpha is all 1's, if I'm not mistaken. There are "easy 1's" and "hard 1's", but no indication in the UI yet.

Stoat posted:Is there a reason why every planet I can find is threat level 1? They redid the threat levels and now all you find are threat level 1 until you kill the UFO, when you move on to level 2. Some planets in a threat level are now way harder than others, but there's no way to tell other than beaming down and getting obliterated

Is there a way to delete characters at all? Or do I have to find their files and delete them?

I've noticed a lot more mobs grazing on grass now, except they kinda get stuck doing that and won't agro or attack back if you get close/attack them. I'm sure the devs are aware of this but boy does it make for some much-needed free meat and pixels early game.

Does anyone know what the in-game file reference is for the Lantern Backpack is? I'm lazy and want to mod it in and "sticklantern" apparently isn't the correct reference.

30 seconds to find a tech on a new playthrough. I'm starting to think they're being placed intentionally close to the spawn.

nerdz posted:Is anyone beating the dragon without cheesing the hell out of it? I have the matter blocks armor, which is a tier above titanium and if the dragon gets a lucky hit in I'm instakilled. I burned all of my phoenix emblems and other projectiles on it only to be destroyed in a single flame burst from full health, where the fireballs kept hitting me, ignoring any sort of invulnerability on hit. Make a bunch of wood platforms and make walkway about 100 or so long and at least 3 player heights off the ground. Also get a weapon that shoots the white energy balls, marked with a lightning bolt. The dragon's shots go right through the platforms and thus don't leave a bunch of fire for you to trip over. Then just run under him when he shoots fire and jump around swinging at his face when he isn't.

Fintilgin posted:Maybe it's on purpose, but has anyone else noticed the 'random building' code is sort of... clumpy? Like if I encounter the frog merchant underground on a planet, and go dig somewhere else on the same planet, chance are I'll... find another frog merchant instead of something completely different. I forget whether it was in the patch notes or something Tiy said in IRC, but the rate of underground events was increased in the patch, so you'll more likely run into underground tombs and frogmen and poo poo.

It seems that the inventory screen actually sticks, but since it recenters when you open a cooking screen it then sticks to that position. It'd be nice if cooking screens weren't tied to the inventory screen. edit - Seems to be cooking, fuel, personal locker, maybe chests too.

There's no point in saving all the weapons I don't want that drop in (say) the prison, is there? I can never sell them or feed them into my Mr. Fusion fuel input or anything? Might as well just trash them all?

My new starter planet is full of angry Avians, so far I'm way better off than my last game! Found some weapons right off the bat, including that goofy bone mace. Is customizing your ship something that you unlock? I can't seem to place anything in the background of mine, I'm pre-UFO.

Leadthumb posted:Can you scan the spawner? This is from a ways back but it's actually an annoying and kinda important thing if you have a spawner: Scanning spawners does not work but will still destroy the spawner. For some reason you can't 3D print them, but the scanner will still eat them anyway. At least it did for the doctor spawner that I tried.

I so want to get this game. I don't think I will be able to until after Christmas. Family, friends, and son come first. Man, I thought being an adult would be so much more fun. Also the lack of time to play games. I'd love to play a game like Starbound for a couple days straight.

So I started playing this last night with a friend and it worked just fine, but today I can't load the game for some reason. When I click "Launch Starbound" from the little starter screen I get an error "bonk" sound but no error message pops up and nothing happens. I can open up my task manager and see a big Starbound process running, but I can't actually play the game. Does anyone know if this is a common thing or if there is a way to fix it? I already tried uninstalling and doing a clean install and it hasn't changed anything.

How do I delete characters? I assumed removing files from the Starbound\player folder would do the trick, but the game doesn't start without them.

Time to Voluntarily retire Robo Bot and see how this tweak turns out. I'm optimistic though. Unrelated, are map coordinates supposed to have the Y ones a digit shorter than the X ones? Everywhere I clicked on the Alpha Sector for Robo Bot, including spawn star, had 8 X numbers, and 7 Y numbers. Pre wipe coordinates had 8 for each. My newest random Glitch,(Named Glitch Glitch), is back to 8 digits each though. Also, nice, the Launcher now has bold red text about the Beta/Bugs/Wipes situation. EDIT: Oh cool, the first wild animal that attacked me not only would die in 3 hits (and had no projectiles), but was smart enough to move to saftey on a dirt ledge I could not reach before I could finish him off. Whether by design of coincidence, that was a nice immerssive start. Though I also just now realized I didn't spawn with full health  Section Z fucked around with this message at 04:01 on Dec 12, 2013 |

I found a Hiraki Corale note in the Apex city. She talks about how she had the genius idea of bringing together the Resistance and the Minikong's followers, so she led a Minikong platoon to the Resistance base. Then she left because she was busy, and she was happy that she saw them marching together through the town square.

I'd be willing to bet that if you had a spawner before you unlocked those recipes, you'd be able to print it. There's no way that I know of to craft the Doctor Spawner, though. I just found one around and then fed it to my printer for no benefit. Also, I'm pretty sure you can't scan the things you can craft at all. It certainly doesn't do anything when trying to scan stuff like the furnace or crafting table.

Mushroom Palace? Try MEAT CASTLE. The meat Guardhouse. To the left is the Meat Bridge. It is also the spawn-in for the planet, and has a sniper window at the top level.  The Meat Bridge, with its glistening, gristly vaulting arches dripping meat juice down upon those who walk under it. The proper castle is not done yet, but needless to say, it will be beyond the ken of normal thought.

Is there anything more to use Diamonds on other than the pickaxe and Drill? The tier 3+ planets are filled with Diamond ores. Not that I'm complaining, as each ore gives 100 pixels in the refinery. Also, has anyone found any blueprints for crystal other than the bed and chest? Looks like you could build a neat base out of that.
