try the "usual" download file path for FU, but change the FrackinUniverse_RC####.zip to simply "quests.zip". Should be good to go.

or, ynow, click this.

 

hello I need help I have screach some times in some worldbut I haven't find mutavisk or somethings which give mutawisk silk someone can help me ?

 

create a mutavisk plant in the design lab. It's one of the easiest plants to create. Failing that, finding one by luck inthe wild is the only other way. Much easier to just create one.

 

Since the giant update (I think), at least since the last 2 or 3 of them I notice very strange creations of racial settlements. I just started exploring again, stumbled upon giant floran and glitch villages, in fact it's like village after village after village... The annoying thing is: they are all empty! No inhabitants. Only on ground level objects are spawned, anything above ground is just structure (materials). I also stumbled upon an empty underground USCM facility and empty apex testing sites. Other stuff I didn't find yet, but I assume there won't be a big difference.
This happened with my old character (last save game 27.02.) as well as with my fresh created one (yesterday). NOTE: I'm playing on mac, if that's helpful.

 

get a log if you can, im curious to see if there are some placement errors being noted in them, or something akin to that. We didn't alter anything with those specific villages etc but it is entirely possible that it's trying to place villages/etc on top of some of the mini-dungeons on the surface that I've created , and takes a shit when it can't figure out how. It could also be an issue with another mod , or something conflicting. Can't say till I see it. I haven't noticed these issues, but that doesn't mean much since most of my "play" time is spent on my ship testing recipes and stuff lately or seeing if biomes load and dont get the Forever Loop.

 

This happened to me for some time before Upbeat Giraffe. Can't say what is the cause as I usually have over a dozen of mods.

 

Chances are its a "glitch" where it tries to set two dungeons in the same spot or something to that effect.

IE: "well, im going to place this lovely village.... and then im going to place this other thing there... wait , what the heck? They can't BOTH go in the same spot. Screw it, i'll just jam them both there and see what happens anyhow."[DOUBLEPOST=1425661145][/DOUBLEPOST]RC082 thus far:

- cloning lab no longer unlocks xeno station crafting

- extra stone furnace recipes removed.

- FU guides in the bookcase within the outpost now have the FU book graphic

- many underground biomes now have hazards and ore rocks

- slime worlds now have greater ground friction and a minimal slow effect. Slime legs will completely ignore this effect, as will eating slime plant leaves (slime leaves also retain their defense boost). It does no damage, so it merely acts as a light debuff.

- most atmospheric and liquid effects (painful ones) have had their damage increased, as they were not dangerous enough to matter. 1hp per tick is nothing when you can heal 50 per tick or higher at high tier. Now they will ramp up their damage each tick, similar to the vanilla types minus the cheap-assed nanosuits.



I'm going to cram as much as I can into this one, but expect it to mostly be "minor" changes. I'm currently working out how to approach the next several updates, splitting tasks between them and attempting to "theme" them. So, you might get New Furniture And Stuff for one. And then the next, Quests and Stuff, and then Weapons and Stuff, etc.

 

Yep, works like a charm. Thank you!

Just a quick note for anyone else who might need the fix - it looks like this folder was pre-official Novakid race, and crashes due to a VariantException error if you're playing one unless you manually add them to the config. It's a pretty easy thing to fix, though (just opening the quests.config and removing the + in the line for the Novakid+ mod race solves the problem).

 

Not sure if it's already been asked, but what exactly does the hydroponics tube do? I can till it with a hoe but it doesn't seem to accept seeds.

EDIT: Is it specifically for FU seeds only? So far the only seeds I have that seems to be compatible is Miracle Grass, Erithian Algae and Ighant.

 

Another update? Man, you're too good to us.

 

Any seed should work. It counts as a normal dirt tile. I haven't tested them, as it was intended solely for the science outpost initially. Anyone else able to confirm this?

it should be noted that some plants take up more space now, which could be part of your issue.

 

So about a few days ago (at least 2 I think), me and a friend played multiplayer with this mod. Since I was way ahead (and was expecting to be playing with him anyhow), I kept on hand the basic necessities needed to get his ship started and running (20 core fragments, 20 FTL crystals, iron, coal, 1000 planks of wood, and other ores).

Before anyone jumps to conclusions, we're both on that latest version (at least, I think we are... darn it guys, stop being so darn efficient with your releases, it makes it harder to keep track), which if memory serves... was RC081. I'm also 85% sure that he made a new character to use on that same day.

I also had with me the stuff he'd need to complete the first set of NPC quests (i.e. bug, coffee, mug, glass, and spoon).

Now, here's the thing... so far, we've both done most of the vanilla missions (up to the Floran party). Since this is perhaps the 4th-5th time he's gone through this song and dance, I see no reason as to why or even how he might have missed or skipped a quest. Regardless, as of 2 days ago from what he has told me (meaning I myself can not be 100% certain), he has yet to receive a mission from the Penguin Bay, so even though we're both around the titanium/durasteel phase... my ship has been upgraded at least 3 times, but he hasn't gotten a single one... Any ideas, possibilities, or explanations?

(I tried to ask him to send me a copy of his character files, so I could try to search for the problem for him, but he was going through a bit of a tough time, and wasn't really in a cooperative mood. )

 

Really enjoying the mod. Made a new character for the latest version and I am having a blast with it. Thank you so much for working so hard on it.

 

im sorry i do know what i am talking about. and you simply did not understand the original context of this message and it went way the heck over your head. and no im a grown man there is no need for you to tone it down as for it might hurt my feelings. but the stupidity on here has instantly gave me a headache. and i simply gave feed back i guess i could have been a bit more accurate than bad workflow. You should get the mod into a stable point. once at the stable point throw out a download link. Then move from there. but throwing out update after update after update of update is just bad. so in short slow it down check your work . no need for a update and upload every day and yes bug fixes are great but not in the fashion you are doing it.

also sense you added i am doing this for free. that is great ! but with that said nobody forced you to do this did they ? if so maybe call the police ?

 

If you knew what you were talking about, you'd realize that:

A. The mod had already existed in a pretty much perfectly stable form before UG, and when UG dropped, the demand to get this mod compatible was enormous. So for that reason, Sayter and his slav--- his helpers got the mod over to UG and stable enough to start playing.
B. The mod is huge. Like, gigantic. Like, it could be its own game. The only efficient way to truly bug test it was to release it. The overwhelming majority are able to play just fine and there has only been one real instance where an update has all but forced people to use new characters. Which means really all we've had to do is download a folder, delete an old folder, and paste the new folder. Its not been that hard.
C. None of the updates are forced. Like I get it, you probably want to use the latest version always. I understand that. But the choice to use the mod in this state is yours. There's no stopping you from using a single version and just having a blast never updating. The constant updating exists for those of us who are content to throw ourselves at the mod with reckless abandon and break it (or, have fun with it. but I do miss the ridiculous ooze storms...). There's lots of new content to add, lots of little things to fix, but its completely unrealistic to expect to find all those little things to fix in any reasonable manner by one's self. Not to mention that if the mod were still not released, people would be going insane. Like when you're working with a mod this big, there really is no other option. You either update a lot, spending your own free time to please people (half of whom will never appreciate it), or your mod sits in development for ages and becomes just a memory.

Oh and to your last bit..

You're updating the mod on your server every time it updates, for free? That is great! But nobody forced you to do it, did they? If they did, maybe you should call the police

 

hey sayter, great mod. loving playing through all the content. i might have found a bug though. let me know if i'm way off. the quest (file is 7_blisterextract.questtemplate) for getting the blister extract seems to be impossible... it asks for moonstone ore, blister pods, and DNA samples, but the starbound wiki says that moonstone ore hasn't been implemented. I've been looking through the assets and i cant find a recipe file for blister extract. So i'm guessing the array doesn't use recipe files?

Anyways, if you know what im talking about, could you give me a quick tip to fix it? if not thats cool too.

Thanks again for the great mod! easily the top of my list.

 

No , you don't.

Not conforming to your exact desires does not make something stupid. That is not the way the world works.

Yes, there is. It's in a beta state and releases are constant for testing purposes. This is how betas work. You called me "unprofessional" , but fixing your own product is anything but unprofessional. So forgive me if I took that as an insult, but it is fairly evident you intended it to be insulting by the tone of the previous message...and then saying "the stupidity in here..." in this most recent one.

I have a wife, a kid, full time job, a SECOND job to help make ends meet...plus other responsibilities. I upload what I have ready when I can do so, because I want people to get the fixes and new stuff I add and to test it and see how it works. Because BETA. I literally have no time to test things 100% on my own. And I don't give a shit if you like it or not.

FYI: This mod was stable prior to the recent Stable update of Starbound. I've got almost SEVEN THOUSAND FILES I have had to update , change or otherwise deal with. And until recently it was 100% being done by me, one guy. You want to critique how I release? Fine. That's your prerogative. It doesn't make you right. I have a github up for the mod for a reason: To design on the fly. And others can contribute if they wish to do so via the github project. If you are so upset with how it is updated, perhaps lend a hand to speed things up. Nut Up or Shut Up, as they say.

*since*, not *sense*

No one forced you to ignore the clearly written language on the mods main page that CLEARLY says that it is a beta and that your characters could be damaged if you choose to use them. You come in here and call ME stupid, when you can't bother to read a single bright orange sentence on the mods main page? Honestly.

 

You may want to just start reporting him if he keeps posting in here. This has troll written all over it, I fear.

 

Just because the starbound wiki says something isn't implemented ,doesn't mean it isn't in the files and ready to use

Moonstone spawns on a number of FU biomes. The recipes for the Array are listed on the main page of the mod. All the ingredients exist, and it is not impossible at all So no, not a bug. You simply haven't found moonstone yet [DOUBLEPOST=1425693847][/DOUBLEPOST]

Yep. One more post from him in the same vein as is currently being done and I report it. I'm not letting some 14 year old run slipshod over the discussion forum like that.

It seems that he's new around here though. Account created on Feb 27th, and only 8 points on said account. He may be completely unaware of the fact that this mod is already over a year old. It's clear, regardless, that he is quite a bit younger. And also that his english is not incredibly good. There is potential that he is unintentionally being rude. Benefit of the doubt, and all that. But, I've moderated before and I would not be surprised if he's simply a douche/troll. We'll see.

 

"It's over seven thousaaaaaaand!"

*dodges thrown anvils*

Seriously? 7K+? I knew it was big but damn.
