RELEASED FrackinUniverse 6.4.3

What are those adorable cow beasts with the big ears? I can't hurt them, and I'm mad because I want to capture one ;A;

 

...Are you talkin' bout the Mooshi and Fluffalo?

 

why would I remove it when they are displaying exactly as I want them to?

 

Mooshi, they're a Vanilla animal. They produce milk, and eggs for them can be purchased from Terramart.

 

sayter updated FrackinUniverse with a new update entry:

4.11 RC 0.12

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

1. Enjoy your vacation.
2. come back unharmed/alive

 

latest github version crashes my game, log attached

 

Using an advanced centrifuge and a quantumn extractor on the same 8v battery doesn't work despite math saying it should (5v+3v). Other combinations work, so I suspect that one is drawing too much power.

 

No. The power system is stupider than that, unfortunately. It divides the total output by the number of stations. Two stations attached to an 8v battery will only get 4v each.

 

Recently ran across another monster that did an inordinate amount of damage despite my War Angel armor. It was either a poison vomit or an acid vomit attack, couldn't tell which since it doesn't show attack names like it used to. Something greenish and liquidy, at least. Either way, one unannounced surprise salvo when I was distracted and I went from full health to about a third.

 

not sure why that would be. The biome wasn't removed, and is still right there it has always been.

Looks more like the mod didn't load, since there are tons of other similar errors for FU specifically. All of which aren't things I removed. So , the error is on your end, not in the mod.

 

that is completely unhelpful since I have no idea what the monster looked like. Generated? custom? no idea.

 

Can you actually make asteroids useful? Because the vanilla ones don't offer anything that can't be found on a basic planet. Asteroids should be special somehow.

 

i think it *may* be possible again. I'll have another look, since I would love to re-add the old asteroid biomes

however, asteroids do offer something: Metal content in the asteroids, and easy to kill/avoid mobs. Given that in REAL space you wont see creatures running around asteroids, thats about as special as they need to be, IMO.

id just like to see variations. Ice ones, rock ones, etcf

 

Agreed. They're actually kind of boring right now, and need some kind of spice to kick it up a notch.

Oh, and I tested the Barren Worlds planet-type mod with Frackin Flora and they play together beautifully.

 

no idea what this barren world mod even is *shrug*

Anyhow, going on vacation for a week so I won't be replying much after the next hour or so, since I am leaving then.


Astroids are....odd. There are biome files like normal, but they aren't called in the celestial or terrestrial files like normal. instead, they are called in asteroids_worlds. Which means, for some reason, asteroids are actually instances of a sort. So I'll need to add more variants in that file and see what happens after that Not the usual way to do things but certainly possible (based on what I am seeing anyhow)

so if it does, expect ice, metallic, elder, and all sorts of other asteroid fields in the near future. If it doesn't, expect nothing

 

I'm not sure how that is possible, since I moved my old working version to my outdated folder, unpacked and renamed the new version and launched, like I've done every single time before now. Unless it was a freak onetime error.

EDIT: Looking like a freak error, or the first iteration corrupted when unpacked from the .zip. Tried unpacking it again and it launches fine.

 

I cant teleport to The First Planet!!!! Help

 

Sorry about that. It was a generated one, a large biped. Had the "sharpteeth" head... and that's all I can remember. I'd go back to get more information, but I'd left that planet after RNG had me running into nothing but sulphuric sub-biomes, and that feature that shows your path through the stars seems broken for me.

 

Is it bad that I find this hilarious?
