RELEASED FrackinUniverse (Archive)

That's great. Except for a couple things:

1. Alpha sector MUST have Penumbra. Period. Some of the crafting stuff requires Penumbrite, and you won't get far without it into beta. Also, must have Crystal Moons present in alpha for the same reason. I think those are the only two "musts" on the list though. Bog would be handy, but not necessary apart from algae.

However, that won't last long. Once I have the quest revamp done you'll be touring all sorts of planets before you even get to Beta.

In short - you need to watch out for "required" biomes for progression-based stuff. Still, great work


(yes, it is fine if Penumbra and Crystal Moon are set to rare system status. I'll be doing the same on FF side of things anyhow.)

 

See, I thought that it would have been better to have them only be available after you kill dreadwing and go to Beta or beyond. But point well taken, I want to help make this mod more compatible AND more realistic. I did have them only available at Delta sector, which thinking about it does feel a bit late (I've never even gotten to Gamma before I did something that requires a universe wipe ).

The Bog, I wanted to keep to the later sectors. After all, Luke Skywalker didn't just head around the corner to talk to Yoda, he trucked his ass all the way out to the Dagobah System... presumably a long ways away. After the tweaks, the Alpha sector does seem a bit empty, as I noted. I'd like to make it more common to have nice, habitable planets there, but that would involve quite a lot of categorical trickery that I'm sure would break compatibility somehow...

I added "penumbra", "crystalmoon" to just the beginning of the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma sector lines... if you're wanting to keep that up to date.

 

Cool beans. Don't get me wrong , Alpha usually doesn't take long to pass just to get Steel on the menu for the robotic crafting table. But some people like to just muck around, so I want them to be able to still make most things without being forced to beta first.

Once quests are more integrated, I'll make a more concentrated switch to make things more interesting.

 

I would like clarification, is the crystal moon where you get the crystals needed to make silicon???

 

Thanks for the info. The planets I visited were all desert worlds.
So, I'm going back to searching for one... again.

 

Yep. That's why I have the quests send you to one

 

Could take a long time to find one. It's random chance, and there are well over a dozen mini-biomes going on there.

 

I'll have to see. Would have been nice to just get some coordinates from the Coords thread but yeah... maybe I get lucky soon.
Just found a Wasteland biome now included with FF... awesome!

 

You may even find my custom Tar one before a "real" tar one, for all you know.

 

Let's see.
Oh and btw: is it on purpose that the green water whatever-thingy on the bog biome also floods dungeons?

 

Yea, its technically an "ocean" and thus, endless.

 

I know this is kind of off topic but speaking of nature the v46 version of the bloodstone Biome is causing havok with my setup Ive even tried deleting the contents of my universe folder I dont know why but when I updated to this new version I keep getting unhandeled exceptions relating to the words bloodstone biome I need help please

 

I figured out how to get uranium what about solarium is it possible from biome like uranium currently is?

 

Sure. Send me a starbound.log file and I'll take a look. As is usual: When reporting a bug, go to your core starbound folder. Find Starbound.log after a crash. Open it up, and take a look inside. Paste the contents here, and I can poke at it to see where the issue lies.

Without that, I have absolutely no way to fix your issue, since I don't know what the issue even is

 

Solarium, no. Uranium is middle-tier quality stuff. Solarium is tier 10. That will remain where it currently is. So, if you want that...get to tier 10

 

You can set it to only appear in really late sectors, or the X sector. It would work especially well with the extended celestial.config options and sectors in Starscape. There is already penumbra, a planet of eternal darkness (which looks phenominal along with the directional light mods I have, btw), why not have a planet of pure light. Super-Hot, tons of Solarium, only appears in the last sector possible. Basically a miniature sun you can land on.

Call it Solus.

 

Heh, that's pretty badass. I may just do that

 

Pardon my ignorance, but how do I harvest bamboo. It only gives me one shoot.

 

Nevermind. I found out .

 

Very daunting at first given so many items and things but the quests help a LOT as does the codex for a refresher. Slowly getting the hang of this.

I accidently extracted my carrot seeds you give as a quest reward [I think] so I'm stuck trying to find said seeds to finish that line but eh it happens. I'll probably have modified [insert seed here] before I find the carrots!
