Starbound - adventure, terraria graphics designer ( INDIE )

Having lost my ship and all my gear, I really can't be arsed to start again until there are more significant improvements on offer.

Really don't like the new ship teleporter. Have to use 'e' then choose a destination from the menu with the mouse, whereas before I could just press 'e' and I was gone...

Just press the teleport button on the right hand side of the screen when you're on board the ship.

That being said I'm probably gonna take a break soon. I'll pick up again when they are done with character wipes.
 
Having all your progress wiped must be so damn annoying! I'm not getting this game until it comes down in price a bit and these character wipes are done with.
 
My character (and it's inventory) didn't get wiped this time around, just the ship and planets were reset...
 
Frenchtart my brother can't get on the server, yet I can perfectly fine...

Character -> Pinkie

[SD]Neil79: linktart.co.uk
[SD]Neil79: then blank under account
[SD]Neil79: then password linktart.co.uk
[SD]Neil79: dont put anything in acc
[Arc] P*: ok, now it's saying wrong password
[Arc] P*: linktart.co.uk is what i put for both the password and ip name

Very strange, anyone else getting that issue?

Here's what new stuff Chucklefish have planned:

  • "Revolvers, pulse rifles, hand grenades, shivs, Floran needlers, Floran thorn hammer
  • "Human guards now wear soldier uniforms
  • "More decorative hats! Yay, hats!
  • "More random encounters
  • "Possibly more content, if it’s finished on time!"
"There’s also the highly anticipated/possibly feared final character wipe," explains a new post on the Starbound blog. "This patch contains a fix for save files so after this, you won’t need to worry about our patches destroying your characters or ships. This patch will wipe everything – characters, ships and worlds. It will definitely be the last time we’ll need to wipe characters or ships, and will hopefully be the last time we’ll need to wipe worlds."
 
After the wipe I might start playing, had this for a couple of months but never given it any real time tbh :) Might get on Frenchtarts server :)

I may also join on that server, really enjoying it to be honest will be nice to play not on my own ha
 
I fired this up last night as my 3 year old wanted to play a game on the "pooter" and I was bored of her car driving game :) Really enjoyed playing the game but are there any particularly scary parts I should know about so I can avoid it when she's with me?

So far it's gone reasonably well, although we did have a bit of an issue with meteors destroying our house every time we built it - I've restarted as a new character and "helped someone move out of their house" as I told my daughter. So we've acquired a little house in single player!

She's loving it, She tells me what to do and I make "Emma" as she's now been named do it. This tends to mean walking about and "running from dinosaurs" :)
 
I think other than the world falling from beneath you cos its made of gravel and you crapping yourself as you plummet into darkness... there isn't any genuine horror to worry about.

Might come back on this now they seem a bit more settled on things and have finished wiping chars/universes.
