    for those wondering how to select beta branchs
    right click starbound in your game section on steam and click on proporites
    in the new window that will pop up click on Betas
    then click on the dropdown window and select Unstable (or whatever its named when it comes out)

    sorry for spelling,

    Sounds good - this hopefully will allow people to get more testing done properly.
    So people who don't mind wipes and crashes can do some proper testing and reporting.

    Awesome work once again, Chucklefish. <3

    I will definitely be choosing the unstable branch.

    Not too worried about losing stuff, so I may as well help test.

  11. You can select it now; it's labelled "unstable - more beta than beta".

    Also, as someone with a limit on my downloads, I am very happy to hear that update sizes will be smaller.

    So from Furious he is now Unstable - so from unstable - explosive? psychotic? supercalifragilisticexpialidocious koala?

    It's just a, currently unused, Block in the game, that looks to be made of gold coins or something of the sort.

    the one thing im wondering is if the unstable versions can play on stable severs?
    for multiplayer

    I'd assume no. Could be wrong, but -- especially from the comments in the anti-daily updates thread -- it seems all users have to be on the same version.

  17. It depends on the protocol version number, which will actually show up on the title screen now.

    Does the fact you are moving towards a stable-unstable strategy mean we're closer to offering the stable, less-often-changing released on non-Steam platforms?

    Sounds great! Smaller patches for people with caps, 'safer' patches for people that choose not to be in the unstable branch. Great job!
