Section Z posted:This would be nice, yeah. But what drives me really crazy is when identical stacks of materials from the same planet refuse to stack Is this why some cobblestone breaks up in a few swings of the pickaxe and other cobblestone apparently got help from swolePT and is about as resistant as platinum?

I'm gettin kinda annoyed by how enemies don't seem to drop guns. Just murdered the guards of a huge Avian temple, and prety much all of them had guns. But they only dropped lovely melee weapons that nobody is ever going to use. What happened to all their space guns?!

Leadthumb posted:Doesn't that happen when they have a different texture? I have found a lot of different looking rock that all says "cobblestone" even though they look different. Pre-Wipe I assumed "Blue dirt is not stacking with identical blue dirt, because THIS dirt is from the orbiting planet" or something, though that did not explain the Cobblestones because there wasn't any on that second snow world. And I blamed my "I wear glasses" Eyesight for needing tot take a closer look to notice the shading difference between some kinds of snow. Post-Wipe, without even leaving the spawn world yet I still get visually identical stacks that will not stack. They even have the same Inventory icons and mouse-over image/text. For added mystery, these blocks that will not stack themselves, when turned into Cobblestone bricks THOSE stack.  In that picture are two single wide vertical columns of one stack of cobblestone, and two single wide vertical columns of the other stack of cobblestone that will not combine, I have not left my spawn world with this guy. Guess which rocks are which! Go on, GUESS  The only thing I can think of that could be a consistent reason (not that I know of a good practical way to test this), is that if you get to a certain depth, but not deep enough to change the entire biome, like when it shifted to mud, then shifted to "Hivestone" and "Plantmatterblocks". Once sand and the more rocky background if you knock out the wall tiles show up, it is possible it considers those "Different" blocks despite being the same kind. But I'm just talking out of my rear end there. I have no idea what actually caues this, but it's happened across all three of my characters so far (One pre-wipe, one post wipe, one post "make a new character if you want to see all the changes"). Tl;DR: I get why visually distinct blocks of the same "type" end up in separate stacks, even though I wish there was a better way to sort and store those. But I fly off the handle when identical poo poo from the same planet won't stack. EDIT: vvv Yeah, that's why I don't feel bad when in Beta, a lot of the things I looked at with a glitch deep in the planet had no Glitch style "statement type" preface. They sure as hell know that stalactites will hurt them glitch style though. Edit Two: OH GOD WHY AM I SPENDING SO MUCH TIME OBSESSING OVER HOW DIRT STACKS SEND HELP

Are the little revolving coffin things that explode when you touch them actually supposed to do anything or are they just traps?

But they only dropped lovely melee weapons that nobody is ever going to use. What happened to all their space guns?! Can't say, though I haven't been getting anything decent, even from the boss monsters I've run into since I started up my latest character. Just crappy melee weapons and the occasional shield. Well, at least that custom ship I've come up with seems to be working fine; I was a little uncertain about it's layout for a bit but it seems to work pretty well with a bit of change in approach.  Featuring a weird mishmash of looted Avian Statuary, High Tech stuff, and a weird statue of a giant worm I happened to stumble across deep inside an otherwise boring planet. I'm a little held up on this modding thing because I'm just starting to realize that holy crap that is a lot of one liners to write about everything. Probably best not to think about that for now and just work on the graphical side of things.

Ahahahaha I just ran into a friendly yet suspicious inhabited Apex lab. I was swarmed the minute I walked in by a bunch of fundamentalist apes asking me if I believed in Big Ape, then a guard followed me around a while yelling at me until I equipped the MM instead of a gun. This game is fantastic

Do you happen to have the coordinates? I haven't seen an Apex settlement yet and I want to see if they say ominous things about the Hylotl like the Avians do. Do humans have settlements yet?

So I've summoned two distress beacons and killed the UFOs both times. I completed the quest the first time, but I am still unable to get out of Alpha sector. I feel like... this isn't supposed to happen? I also don't have an active quest anymore.

You need to make a Star Map Upgrade Mk.2 from the anvil.

You need to actually build the thing that allows you to leave the structure, (something chip upgrade I think) which is available through the Metalwork Station.

You should take a look at what you can craft with the item the UFO gives you when defeating it. This is a game about crafting, after all.

Has there been any news yet on what the next patch might entail, or when it might be? Section Z posted:This would be nice, yeah. But what drives me really crazy is when identical stacks of materials from the same planet refuse to stack The problem is that for some reason, cobblestone remembers its values for appearance/color/variety/hardness, but none of those are actually displayed. So you can get a light gray, smooth type of cobblestone, and a darker red-brown, tight-packed, very hard and resistant cobblestone, and your inventory will remember which is which, but they'll look the same and place as the same. All the values are saved but none of the things those values are supposed to effect seem to be 'connected', really.
