    So, here's a question. How do you find a gate, currently? I've yet to see one. Are they on the surface of a planet or are they on the outpost planetoids that seem to only ever have the building with empty stores for me?

    I noticed that bug in the actual current version..... (Not the nightly build) it seems to have been there awhile... it has to do with water moving around. It destroys fires/torches/lamps.

    Pretty sure they haven't been properly implemented yet.
    You can use admin commands to summon the actual structure of a gate, but you won't find them occurring naturally, and a summoned one won't do anything.


    And now for a question of my own, is there a hotkey to switch to the matter manipulator now that it has its own special slot under the hotbar?
    I'm so used to using the number keys to access the things I have in the hotbar and hitting X when I need my weapon. I haven't found a simple way of switching directly to the matter manipulator via the keyboard. The only ways I've found are through scrolling the mousewheel, or clicking on the icon.

    It appears that admin commands have been disabled. At least, I can't get them to work anyway.

    Yes, I've got it set on the nightly builds. When I type in /ruinthefun, nothing happens. There's no text that pops up saying it's been enabled or disabled. I tried spawning something in anyway, but I just get the return message "you don't have the privilege to spawn items" or something to that degree.

    This is butts, man.

    Edit: I have also gone into the config files and admin commands is set to "true".

    /ruinthefun dosen't work for me either but i can still spawn items.

    Also, can you beam to outposts, when i beam i spawn into lava, start losing health and can't see myself.

    I've also noticed that in recent nightly builds, ore that is within gravel or fine sand tends to simply vanish when the gravel or fine sand is disturbed, rather than popping out and becoming collectable like it did in older versions.

    Yep, it's happening to me too.
    My roof is four tiles thick. Two of dirt, one of wood and one of cobblestone bricks, but it still leaks!

    I just noticed that the furnace has been changed to produce a crafting menu instead of the input/output system like the campfire.

    I've only just started playing after it updated, so I really didn't get past the starting planet. Since I use the commands to move through all the quests and get fuel and ship repairs, it kind of put the breaks on me. Outposts were actually the main reason I wanted to play after this update too. Wanted to see all the NPC additions. What I'm also hoping for is that they make the shops actually usable instead of over-sized chests.

    In short... No, I wouldn't know if I could beam to outposts or not, but reading that someone else has had the same issue as you, I can only assume that I would also beam into lava. What a way to go... "THIS PLACE IS TOTALLY SAFE, DON'T YOU WORRY!" -beam down and immediately melt- "WHOOPS, GUESS I SHOULD HAVE WARNED YOU ABOUT THAT LAVA, LOL. No hard feelings though, it could have happened to anyone!"

    Yeah, that was my initial thought as well... That something they did most likely broke it. Nearly died on the starting planet cause I didn't realize I was taking damage, lol. Almost as bad as the time I drowned in lava when mining for hellstone in Terraria. :rofl:
     
  15. Surface Ore is back ><

    EDIT: The more i explore this starting planet, the more I think the world gen has just !@#$ the bed. It's spawned an area with hivestone and cobble stone and when i cross the area between it, the paralax backgrounds disappear.

    EDIT2. BONUS, a poison hammer I found has a fire alternate attack. So MB1 does poison damage, and MB2 does fire damage.

    If you can't stand the heat, get out of the outpost.

    LOL at that.

    Btw, I just made a new char today, and before I rebooted SAIL, I noticed something VERY SPECIAL in the random text the AI says while going haywire.
