Angry Diplomat posted:That, and refining all the diamond you find after making the pick. It gets you a ton of pixels and you will easily get more once you need it for the drill. True enough. It's that ramp up from the start that is the snag, and building up a big enough pile of basic metals that I can throw chunks of it into the refinery while still having enough for me to just screw around with/plan for future objects with. The new file structure is for the best, in making sure I stick to my intentions of Vanilla working my way up at least through durasteel completion. Since at the very least my nigh ignorance was able to handle recipe tweaks like "Coal = 1k fuel" and "Hello I would like ten bars per Tier 1 ore please" along with editing the manipulator to diamond pick speed and size. Blhue posted:I haven't even bothered making the diamond pick and I'm just saving up for my drill once I get around to fighting the dragon and opening tier 4. For some reason, I've been finding gently caress all diamond this play through, with almost all of what I have found having been already refined diamonds I found in chests. Murphys law of materials. I was starved for copper in my surface and every natural cavern run on my spawn world, despite swimming in twice as much Iron as needed to make armor and weapons. I was finding GOLD in larger sized deposits than most copper scraps of 2 or 3. I had 100+ Iron ore before I could finally make a copper pickaxe for example (which is why I didn't dig down). Soon as I had enough for copper armor though? BAM, oh NOW the 10+ sized copper deposits start showing up. EDIT: Case in point, one minute after sloooowly building up the 32 Diamond ore needed to make a pickaxe one ore two bits at a time. I went from taking forever to get 31 bits, and then jumped straight to 63 diamond ore ten minutes later. ...I still have only 14 Platinum though Section Z fucked around with this message at 00:00 on Jan 29, 2014 |

Am I missing something with sector X, or is it always supposed to murder you horribly? I just kitted myself out in full aegisalt complete with weapon, and it'sstill a struggle to explore.

Luminous Cow posted:My brothers and I want to rent our very own Starbound server. I've checked the official servers, but a 12 slot is their minimum, and we already have a private mumble server, so the voice chat bundle is unappealing. What are some good places to look for? I've never really rented a server besides once doing a small Minecraft place, so I don't know who is reputable, has good tech support, etc. Run it yourself unless you have a bad computer or internet.

Yeah, I'm dumb and figured aegisalt was the final armor tier, but I checked a wiki and saw it goes up to like tier 10 so that would go some way towards explaining my confusuion.

Guys I can't make my ultra-beamaxe work anymore I unpacked the assets and edited like I did last time, but I still have my 2x2 molasses-slow manipulator. I'm guessing it's because of the new patch, do I have to repack the assets or something?

Is there a way to re roll the planet without losing all my gear? Everything here is obsidian. And a silver pick isn't fast enough. I've only just killed the penguins but it took a lot longer than it should have to get the resources for the beacon.

Temper Trudeau posted:I don't have enough coal. I tried a matter manipulator mod but it kept crashing the game. If there are any planets in the same orbit you only need one fuel to move, if not then cut down trees, each ten raw wood is one coal, if you are lucky and have a fairly tree covered planet getting 500 raw wood to get to a different planet shouldn't be too much trouble.

Do you have trees? You can convert wood into coal. Or hop on a goon server and collect resources there if that works.

That was sudden. After getting so used to my temperature not dropping at night on the last two worlds I have been on, suddenly my temperature drops like a ROCK if I go past a certain depth. The background materials have not changed again, it's still rocky backgrounds with soft bricks and tiny houses. But If I go down ONE tile deeper than where I put that blue dirt you start freezing like a Popsicle. The blue dirt is the end of the Full Warmth. Soon as you reach where I put that row of bone blocks if dives into full freeze in steel armor. It takes 5 torches or a campfire to hit full warmth. Looks like I'm not going any deeper, because screw fighting all the wildlife that can take off 1/3 my health in steel armor wearing Snow Gear... Which would required going back up to my ship to get it anyway. Considering the end result of constant digging is lava (I've never actually bothered to dig that deep before) I'd have figured it would get warmer the farther I go. Oh well. Off to the Gamma sector!... Once I eat something. Edit: Also note to self, grab the persistent farmables mod. Hours of being deep in the earth between sitting in a chair while dealing with AFK stuff, not a single thing on my ship grew Section Z fucked around with this message at 00:38 on Jan 29, 2014 |

Section Z posted:Stuff about temperature changes. I went spelunking earlier and I hit something pretty much exactly the same, suddenly I'm in a freezing cold area. The weird thing was, I was able to move through it eventually by falling down into a massive cavern. By the time I landed I was back in a normal temperature area. Not sure if it was a layer or a ball of cold but you can get through it.

REFINERY WARNING: The bug where the refinery only gives you the value of two diamond ore per full diamond is STILL in game It gives 100 per Diamond ore, but only 200 per full diamond, which takes 4 ore instead of 2 like all the other bars. Glad I did a quick check after making my pickaxe now, instead of just turning it all into diamonds for use or refining later, ugh. Last Patch I made a small fix since I at least knew how to tweak recipe numbers but now I am a lost little baby when it comes to how to even BEGIN to start modding.

They really need to scale heal rates for the higher tier beds. When it's more efficient to kill myself to regain full health than to pull out the bed I have hotkeyed in my inventory, there is a problem. Also, bug with the Frigate mod, I had three captured mobs run into tesla spikes I placed on the floor of the cockpit room. The filled capture balls flew up and stuck in the section of the ship hull above the cockpit roof. Unreachable; I'm out three of the acid-spitting mobs from TL4 asteroid field. Kinda hard to farm those.

Apple Craft posted:I can confirm that Better Beamaxe works great. No crashes here. I had that mod and "Earlier Drills" both installed earlier so I deleted both. The Beamaxe worked for 9 blocks, then the animation of other blocks being mined wouldnt go away, and I couldn't mine anthing else. I'm also running this game on a real poo poo computer so that may be the real issue. I forgot about turning wood to coal, and luckily my planet still had a few trees left, and I ditched that semi lifeless rock for a cool system with 3 planets. On the first one now and an empty house on the right, and a mushroom dude living a little to the left. Found all kinds of ore and I've only been here a little while. I also want to say the music in this game is pretty awesome. Chill, yet adventurous. Sets a great mood.
