Yep and it was a straight downgrade. They probably removed it because the metrics were showing everyone not taking the upgrade.

Game could really use a few more ship classes, not to mention there's a few ingame references to poo poo like class III reactors that I'm sure are definitely safer and easier to salvage. HS:SB's Lead Producer posted:Work will continue on the console ports, on patches and bug hunting, and we’ll see what else may be in the future as the community plays the final version of the game. There are some possibilities for where Shipbreaker may go in the future depending on audience enthusiasm and feedback.

New patch! Among the myriad changes is this under the bug fixes header: -Player can get instantaneously crushed when flushing a thruster on an Atlas Tug So looks like that problem has been fixed  Notes here

Might actually buy the soundtrack now that they added the 'oh poo poo' variants. • Mackerel CMPT can sometimes remain pressurized even if visibly open to the void Guessing this is referring to the magic forcefields holding air inside the crawlspace when you pop the cockpit off. e: Speaking of funky pressurization, is there any safe way to decompress the crawlspace around the double airlock on heavy cargo Javelins, or do you just have to blast through the titanium and hope for the best? Since explosive decompression force seems to be inversely proportional to the size of the hole you make, would it be safest to just stinger the entire outer bulkhead?

Big Ink posted:Open the Exterior doors and blast the interior doors. I know this works for rooms with busted atmo processors, but on same Javelins there's a pressurized space around the double airlock that is completely inaccessible, between the interior cargo hold and the big external fuel tank. Or do you mean I should open it up to the rest of the interior before depressurizing, then pop the airlock door?

Ah I misunderstood, I haven't seen one of those in a long time and assumed they were removed. But otherwise, there's no good way to deal with them. You can either cut the aluminum walls or demo the nanocarbon. The damage done is roughly the same which ever option you take. Broken pieces won't fly as far away if you splitsaw 2-4 of the aluminum walls parallel to the airlock walls so that's kind of nice...

I decompress the rest of the interior and then stinger the whole interior panel. It’s pretty tame decompression. Usually if anything gets wrecked the outer panel gets mildly shredded. You have to have an upgraded stinger to do it though.

GotLag posted:There's no gentle way to decompress that donut around the airlock. However, as far as I can tell, they always have an aluminium bottom panel rather than nanocarbon, so you can get in that way. GotLag wrote something that worked fine for me here as a reply to me asking about the same thing.

I love creative shipbreaking projects! Long time ago, I scooped out the entire interior of a cargo gecko. I'm kind of tempted to try if it can still be done.

Your heat will decay faster than the panel cools off. Return to blasting at it when your bar is gone. Should vaporize with the second bar of heat.

Perestroika posted:Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised that they dared to go with an outright optimistic ending. And Industrial Action was a very fun change of pace. I was rather shocked that The corporation caved so fast but then I realized not only are their workers actively blowing up the company's meal tickets, but doing so in a very visible way. In space you can see everything so everyone on Mars, Jupiter orbit, or on an asteroid belt colony, can just point a telescope to watch Lynx's poo poo blow up. Besides it's not 100% optimistic as the rich assholes at the very top who drove this get away completely free. Which is depressingly realistic. The industrial action was incredibly fun though. Especially with your managers basically fighting over the controls.

The lore on the scavenged hard drives also mentions that the Stellar Commission is a body in search of a purpose, and the publicity over Lynx's abuse of its workers very neatly gives it one

So for the industrial action, should I just slap demo charges on as much expensive poo poo as possible and light the fuse before Hal tries loving with my controls?

Regarding Industrial Action: Breaking everything is very satisfying, but it does make it kinda difficult. I wound up having to pick over a huge debris field, randomly breaking stuff until I eventually trashed enough to win. But they also gave me a huge heavy cargo gecko to smash

Getting back into this, is there still no way to tell what's actually keeping something attached? It's better than I remember, but I definitely still have things that just seem frozen for no reason I can ascertain.

Not as far as I can tell, I still run into issues where an object is clearly disconnected visually, but still attached. It especially happens on the mackeral canopy windows, they really don't like coming free from the nanocarbon without a fight.

Game just got a massive bugfix/optimization patch to coincide with the console release. The list of fixes is pretty staggering! https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1161580/view/3395173894703634213

They might need another bugfix patch yet; I've noticed that some of the prompts you are supposed to skip with the spacebar have stopped working, the achievements for getting shocked and salvaging reactors don't trigger, and even though I have beaten the campaign I don't have the achievement for it, all of which are new issues introduced by the patch. The framerate does seem better, but loading screens take longer. Still an improvement there at least.

The only bug I can really remember encountering since the previous patch was the "multiple computers clipping inside each other when 5 of them spawn in the same location, rendering it impossible to extract any of them without the whole thing going up in flames" one that seemed endemic to research geckos.

Played and finished recently and really loved this game. My only real complaint is the detonation charges feel very underwhelming for what they're made out to be. They only do about the same job as your laser cutter with the attachment, so why bother?  I was hoping for some big ship-bisecting cuts with them. still did my best during Industrial Action with them though  I also wish Tethers were just a shade stronger for larger parts too, or at least upgradeable to be so, as they feel very tepid when you're using them on big pieces.As for sectioning ships; does anyone else just get it down to "the interior full of expensive bits" and Tether that down in the barge to call it done? Dogen posted:Yeah that was probably one of the biggest gameplay issues I had noticed- mysteriously still pressurized rooms open to space, and a depress sometimes between two pressurized compartments I had that happen a few times too. Door's wide open, but somehow the ship's still got pressure. Until I eject a hull segment and then things... correct themselves.

I definitely tin-can all the processor hull sections off, do a little more work then tether most of the remaining bits and bobs down in to the barge all in one go. Might have to hack it in two depending on weight so tethers can pull it, that's about it, but I gave up on surgically separating everything to where it's supposed to go. My quota gets reached, the rest is someone else's problem on down the line.

As far as I can tell, the purpose of charges is to break the hardened cut points the normal cutter can't handle. I also didn't unlock them until just before industrial action so that was the first time I ever used them. Good practice session

haveblue posted:As far as I can tell, the purpose of charges is to break the hardened cut points the normal cutter can't handle. Yeah, but the problem is they only exist FOR the hardened cut points to exist. You could change them to regular cut points and lose nothing, considering they only ever appear on Ion Rings and the big comms antennas. I think you'd get more out of them just by doubling the radius of the cutting blast, even if just as an upgrade path.

Their only other utility is setting up a cleaner decomp that you can be further from but I still haven’t really worked that out.

They're also good for breaking up the larger pieces of nanocarbon if they aren't held together with cut points, such as the rings found in javelins. Blowing up the whole ship into tiny little pieces is also a use, for those ships that towed the line a little too often and can serve as an example to the others.

I'm going though this game on ps5 and I'm hoping someone can give me a light spoiler on how progress works I have a feeling you're meant to complete the ship doctor. Is doing that what kicks off the ending of act 2? I've gotten through act 1 and I'm just doing some ships while I rank up and complain about this new admin guy. Just curious how the progression goes because I need to watch out for industrial action which has one missible trophy based on the action taken
