How do I stay warm?

In the previous stable update Enraged Koala I was able to craft armor to stay warm with leather dropped from mobs using the Hunting Bow.
Ever since Upbeat Giraffe was released I have been unable to find anything about staying warm.
I suspect that its most likely a "Tech" item now.
If anyone knows what I need to do to survive a snow biome please tell me.
Thanks.

 

As you do missions you will get various nanosuits to survive hot planets, cold planets, etc etc

 

You need to do Quests and Missions for all progression now.
You'll get a tech that allows you to survive cold from one of them.

Edit: Heh, ninja'd

 

find a dead moose and sleep in it's body to stay warm during the night

I didn't get that far,yet,but I'll assume you can get a Nanosuit Tech for completing a specific mission that will offer protection from cold temperatures. In the meantime,I'm sure you can make an abundance of camp fires and use those to warm yourself up.

 

If you play Floran, you have to stab people and wear them for warmth. Once they cool down you need to get another one.

 

Interestingly, I have visited a snow planet (circling an eccentric star) with only the nanosuit for o2, and I was fine. Seems like the game only checks for the star's temperature and not the planet's biome.
I need to check the planet's description again, but it sure /looks/ cold.

 

Some ice planets are "Dangerously" cold,while others aren't. You found one of the not-dangerously-cold ice planets.

 

And there you go! Thanks for the info.
Incredible how people cannot like the internet. You wonder, and people will provide answers. I love this.

 

Thanks!

 

As a matter of fact, just a few hours after this post I discovered the answer. After completing the Mysterious Floran Party, the floran hunter gifts you the nanosuit required to survive dangerously cold planets... Silly me

 

Saddens me that fireplaces don't grant area based resistance similar to cold nanosuit...

 

That was a feature in previous versions, it was removed until Chucklefish finishes making them better.

 

I have to admit I've always kind of scratched my head at the whole "drop a fire down" tactic as some kind of major component, as the EK build gave you the ability to craft super-warm armor pretty early in that negates the cold of pretty much every planet or asteroid field. And it wasn't too long after that the normal progression armor's heat ratings got up to that level too without sacrificing durability.

Plus, you know, cold planets really didn't offer anything progression-wise you couldn't get from any other planet, so I was happy to mine elsewhere til I didn't have to do the "drop a heat source" thing.

And now that (most) snowy worlds have been pushed back in progression (a move I'm good with), to the point where you ought to be able to craft the insti-negating stuff by the time you start hitting cold worlds in abundance?

That's the trick. The system has to work in concert with all the other systems in play as a cohesive whole. I'm guessing they felt the temperature system as it was didn't really work with the revamped progression and planet redistribution, the primary focus of the UG build. They still HAVE the system, and now that the core progression is closer to what they want, they can rethink how to weave a reworked temperature system into progression... and if it's worth it to do so.

Personally, I favor a tiered nanosuit system over a numbered temperature deal, with three levels of Too Cold, Too Hot, Too Radioactive... but that would have to work in concert with the planets themselves having unique things per tier, stuff simply not available at Tier One Too Cold that you can only find in Tier Three Too Cold.

 

Perhaps they restore it in a way, so that players don't have to use a nanosuit, and still get survival aspect by constructing a closed space with a heat source inside...
By turning the generated heat into a matterless and weightless "warm liquid" that is spawned by heat sources, radiate outwards in spherical shape that weakens and eventually dissipate on contact with matterless and weightless "cold liquid". This "liquid" would provide same effect as cold nanosuit does.

Might work, but dunno how much it can be heavy on the processors...

Maybe planets that combine more of major enviroment effects, like planet that is radioactive and cold...
But propably not, but possible for modders to do it.

 

Cold Protection. Duh.

 

I recommend wearing alot of layers and drinking warm coffee, being near a campfire helps to.

 

i prefer the body of a squirrel, squirrels are much eaiser to find.
