You know what would be awesome? Being able to bank pixels on your ship, but if you die on a planet you lose ALL of the ones you're carrying. That would actually be an amazing change, I think. It would still carry that same fear aspect, especially if you're bringing a lot of money from your ship to buy something from a merchant in a dangerous land, or hauling a lot from underground. It would provide a fun choice for the player to decide whether or not to bring a lot of their money to buy big items, or leave it at home where it's safe.
I agree with this, I would like to poke at this and do useful tests, and knowing the groundwork would help a lot.
A new update every night? Amazing. I am really looking forward to these Ore changes, can you provide any more details on the direction you are taking this?
The bow is for hunting/for meat, as a Hylotl, you can quickly rack up the needed pixels for Hylotl weapons by killing the local predators
Wahoo - I'm XP so it'll be good to be able to play at last. I have a 573.4MB Update on Steam for Starbound so hopefully by the time this is done the XP update may be close to ready.
Quick question: Do we need to restart our games for these updates to take place or can we just keep playing our existing characters?
Your team's dedication to quickly fixing and adjusting these issues are unparalleled Thank you for everything you've done so far. Really enjoying the game.
Tiy, please work on NVIDA optimization soon if you have time. That game is currently unplayable for me and supposedly a good number of other people because the game doesn't like their graphics cards and the fact that the highest frames you can get it 12. please please please please!!
Starbound is stunning. Thanks Chucklefish for providing us with such a stellar game. I have been following Starbound since the very beginning and threw my financial support as soon as I was able (and x5 for pushing it on my friends, lol!). It was well worth the painful wait. On another note, re-assignable/mappable controls I would consider to be a top priority, if you are looking for beta-testing feedback. Thanks again! I'm very happy to see your team stick it to all those who complained that it was taking so long to release a beta. Being this polished, I'm 100% positive they all shut up pretty darn quickly! Cheers!
I think a slot in your Ship's chest for Pixels would be pretty awesome, that way you'd have to beam back up to your ship in order to store pixels, and only store pixels there. Also, remapping keys would be extremely handy. I hate having to reach all the way across the keyboard for that damn "I" key.
