I can only assume everything relating to the 3D printer is a work in progress. I would prefer it only work on all building materials and decorations so you never have to strip more than one kind of structure. People keep saying they want some kind of shipping/trading/mercantile system and quests. Would that fall within the current capabilities of the modding system? I'm surprised there isn't something like that already.

I'm surprised there isn't something like that already. I'm certain it's doable but would require Lua scripting. Having to actually do code stuff is a major obstacle for the majority of us. I've been poking at Lua tutorials but I just have no background whatsoever so I don't think I'll get very far. I definitely want some kind of economy mod.

Today's painful reminder. Whoops Q makes you throw away your equipped item. Whoops Two enemies at once when you're busy scrambling for your backup weapon in the dark means you die fast. Whoops your dropped spear found in a chest isn't there when you get back one minute later. Aaaaand removing that binding. Which at least I can do now in the options menu. EDIT: I guess Q had quite the throwing arm because the spear was over a hill quite a ways further to the right

Yeah, Q as a "drop equipped item" button seems really precarious considering Q is "switch to previous item" in a lot of games. Fortunately it hasn't caused me to lose any weapons but I've had a couple close calls.

I think I'm going insane. Earlier I went and checked out these coordinates, since I need the treasure map, but the planet had dangerously high temp and the character I was using didn't have the heat-proof suit yet. I just got the suit, but then I punched in these coordinates and that system is nowhere to be found any more. To make the whole matter even more consuming, despite those coordinates being basically on the opposite side of the universe for me, it's claiming I'll only need 10 fuel to make the trip. Help

If you're using the 64 bit client, and someone else is using the mac, linux, or 32 bit client, their world gen will be different than what you have. It's only the same architecture that will provide the proper world gen.

Anyone have the location for a USCM Penal Colony with the stone sign out front you need for the Jail House Rock quest? I found one on a volcanic planet earlier, but for whatever reason I couldn't mess with any of the objects or terrain in or near the colony  That's the last one that I need for the next ship upgrade. I really just want to finish upgrading my ship all the way so that I can reorganize everything in there one last time and stop worrying about what goes in which crate. fyi: For the Mech boss just use full Violium with a heavy hitting Violium weapon and just go at him like a mad dog when he's shooting missiles. When he's using the flamethrower or the Touhou bullet spam thingy just try to play keep-away while eating every healing item you have access to. Took me two tries, but it was a close thing.

Vib Rib posted:I dunno, it looks fine to me. You can see pretty clearly that he's in a light surface area, and just below him, where all the non-coal ores start, it opens up massively. Terraria's cavegen works the same way, basically. Terraria's cavegen generates tunnels from the surface to the bottom of the map without you having to do a great deal of digging, Starbound just generates a bunch of disconnected holes in the ground.

I'm saying Starbound does basically the same thing: in both games once you get past the surface level, caves become much more abundant and often overlap. When you reach the bottom of one, you can use torches, flashlights, or your MM to scope around the edges, then do some brief digging if you need to. That's about the same as how I cave in Terraria.

Well, I ALMOST made it through my first shot through the mines. Combat is such a loving slog. Steel hammer also felt insultingly pointless because it does juuuust enough damage to the normal monsters in the mines that it leaves them with an "Empty" health bar, so may as well use the spear, but that still gives them enough time to spit and it floats just long enough for a vertical jump dodge to get hit (I have dash unlocked, but too many cases of dashing that would either make me aggro a second enemy, or sent me hurtling off a ledge onto a pile of enemies soooo), so it was mostly one shot from the compound bow, one stab with the spear, repeat. Compound bow which takes... 10? I stopped counting past 5+ shots for the tougher miner monsters, didn't even bother trying to fight them in melee considering a single spit attack guard breaks my shield. Alas, the only shield I'm allowed to craft right now, Basic shield, can't keep up with the beamspam of the boss even if I perfect guard, since the beam is slow enough to still take out a chunk of the shield bar even if I walk through the beam as they pass by. So my death was P guarding my way through one beam, then whoops P guard into guard break into last of my health through another beam (Couldn't dodge the other way, monsters were spitting in that direction). Maybe if I had more sicknasty milisecond perfect timing the Perfect guard frames would work better? But if it's down to that much of a difference in timing in a 2D sandbox digging game, then that's just silly. So the semblance of something good is there, it just feels overtuned damage wise. Especially if you come in with what is expected of you, with bandages and steel craft equipment. Against the normal enemies a few at a time it was okay, but considering they liked to come in clusters at times and so few hits kill you, a single spit will break your shield if you don't perfect guard, etc, yeah.

Glowing ore mod is another great candidate for the base I think. Make another ship upgrade available that costs some core ore, so you basically just have that first trip down to be your bit of a slog.

I'm not against ONE slog down in your home planet, as long as it makes further trips much easier. As it is, I cheated in the grappling hook, and holy poo poo, night and loving day. Love that thing, wish it was tier 1.

Base speed of MM is still atrocious for your first slog, considering your choices are surface coal or digging a bit, hoping for some copper. On the other end of the spectrum, you can fell some trees, kick some jelly rear end and get tons of torches to go spelunking in Terraria. Along with surface deposits of iron and copper. Also, the mining outpost now crashes on load for me. Yay, chucklefuck.

LAY-ZX posted:A friend of mine is running a server, but when playing on it a few planets cause the client to crash. Which planets do it is consistent and it happens to everyone. At first it was just annoying, but as of yesterday's patch the story missions now do it too. Anyone have any idea what's up? Should we be supplying coordinates of bugged planets for a "don't go here" directory? One of the desert planets in my home system behaves like it's got lag. Like, blocks will stop being mined and collected and monsters will just walk in place for a minute and then start back up again, and then go back into that paused state later. Teleporting back to the ship during the "lag spikes" still results in me staring at the planet surface after I beam off of it for 30 seconds to a minute before it cuts back to my ship. :starbound:

Vib Rib posted:The quality of life mods are amazing, in particular. There's one just to condense crops down to 1 tile wide each. I generally find a couple of ways down in terraria, as well as the cavern layers being much more interconnected. Starbound doesn't generally get you very far with its caves and it also doesn't have any variety in content or style. It's just a bunch of cramped, ugly, useless holes in the ground that don't lead anywhere and have virtually nothing of value in them.

Section Z posted:Well, I ALMOST made it through my first shot through the mines. I'd be happy to give you a hand with this if you want; I'm reasonably geared so I can help you out. Doing the dungeons in MP is A Good Idea because the instance won't reset when you die as long as one person is still active in it, even if they're just sitting somewhere. This counts for the boss too: they don't even need to be in the boss chamber. There really needs to be some sort of difficulty option, though: bosses have so much health it's annoying, I just want to get back to playing space legos. Vib Rib posted:Taken from 4chan, but if you're like me and just want to actually be able to use all the nice blocks and furnitures that are already in the game, here's a mod excerpt: These mods are perfect. I feel like the microdungeons should have an "implode" button that reduces them to blocks because breaking them down is a nightmare but these are way easier.
