    I'm pretty sure it means you'll be able to just teleport back to your home planet instead of having to waste fuel going back.

    I wonder if you can wall off a town that you make and then make sure no monsters spawn inside the walls...
    Oops forgot about fucking birds. Solution, underground metropolis.

    Question about the patch notes. When it says I should make a new character/worlds, does that mean all the planets of my current characters Universe (even the ones I haven't visited yet) won't be affected by the changes, or will worlds I have yet to land on be affected?

  • LanrutconLanrutcon The LabyrinthRegistered User regular
    I wonder if you can wall off a town that you make and then make sure no monsters spawn inside the walls...

    Well! I have theories. I've built some massive surface installations, and enemies don't spawn inside/on top of them (birds excluded). I have a feeling that enemies don't spawn on player set tiles of certain types. I build with prison materials, mostly.

    If it uses similar spawning mechanics as Terraria, beasties won't spawn on player-placed background tiles.

    It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... And take away its pain.

    Welp, time to find NPC spawners and make houses for each one in a town/city populated by my own NPCs. I hope this is in tonight's update or soon, because I am going to be the best mayor ever.

    Another feature I'd like is the ability to mark planets with a note like 'has gun merchants' or 'oh my god so much titanium'

    I guess a notepad file will have to do

    He sold me bombs.

    Millions and millions of bombs.

    I haven't had to swing a pick for hours of play.

    Yeah. If you get them early it's a good way to get a gold pick.

    Also, they sell bombs, and as far as I can tell, nobody else does.

    How do I start a new single player universe (is that even needed in order for some of the patch changes)?

    Each world you visit gets a save file, which includes what version of worldgen was used. When you visit a world, if there's a save file, it'll use the specified worldgen information. So unless you go delete those files, worlds you've previously visited won't get the new changes.

    Changelog for v. Offended Koala 15/12/2013

    There are a whole bunch of improvements to balance here, particularly in the early game.
    We aren’t wiping characters or worlds, but if you want to experience the proper balance
    you should make a new character/worlds to play it on!

  • TIFunkaliciousTIFunkalicious Kicking back in NebraskaRegistered User regular
    They're pressuring me to wipe my own characters so I have no one else to blame

    Yeah, I ran into that guy before the patch. He had... mostly gold picks iirc., tough cheap. And lived in a certain form of "tomb block" milieu that stretched over quite some area. There were also a couple of frog statues that looked like him or his kin.

    It's in my top ten too. (though I think some of that time is due to forgetting to close the Starbound launcher, which steam counts as having the game running)

    And your solution is clear. Buy your family copies of Starbound for Christmas and all play on the same server.

    My current project is a floating island with a Glitch fortress on it... I am hoping I may be making it 1/4th the way to Asteroid... then there's going to be another tower that leads to a titanium space station...

    Is there a way to transport or generate water?

    In X:\\(steam directory)\steamapps\common\Starbound\player. They aren't listed in plain text though (appear as some kind of alphanumeric string), so make sure you make an archive before deleting.
