this whole scene is just bizarre. why is it just kitchen cabinets around an empty space? again the lighting looks off so all the placed assets look weird.

probably hundreds of man hours on objects and textures but the scene looks like it was put together and lit in 10 minutes.

And it’s supposed to be a futuristic space game but people still eat watermelon and drink out of lovely cups,why not have some weird outlandish alien tree food or a pulsating egg full of blue goo?

loving imagination guys!

That's astonishing. The fuckery is caused by incredibly lovely architecture. They "added a little bit of code to stop it happening" - this is a really bad code smell. That fix will have to go all over the place because BY DEFAULT the code assumes that any message a character gets is about and for that character.

As a goonly FUDster, it's my opinion that this isn't actually an alpha yet, because it's horribly broken from the ground up. RIp it up and start again.

Dwarf Fortress has a sturdier codebase than SC.

Even as a layman, that whole 'client action applies to everyone on server' / 'intercepted with a few lines of code' bit didn't... inspire confidence.

They should just flip all their patch notes to shouldn't:

- Burgers shouldn't dance on tables
- Necks shouldn't form an S-shape
- Water shouldn't behave like the Kraken

Would be quite a long list though

first off, let me say that I love the project and chris roberts and I believe in the vision 100% and I know its an alpha and we are testers and that our pledges go to funding this great game and community that I am proud to be a part of

that said, 3.9 is a complete loving shitshow

edit: before anyone else dogpiles me, please see my first paragraph, I cannot stress how much I believe and love everything about this project, I just bought a prowler because I believe so much, please stop downvoting me I just want to be able to play for more than 15 minutes without crashing or having my entire ship catalog of real life dollar purchases or in-game aUEC disappear. by the way thank you chris for the opportunity to play your amazing vision

There are so many layers to this. The stupid fidelity, the short-circuiting of the stupid fidelity, the jumping between server and client authority, the special case fix. This is terminal.
