Closed Starbound BETA: Bugs Database LU 8.29.14 (Not for nightly)

It's known (but nice to know arrows work):

Fun
Steps to reproduce: Jump while placing at the farthest distance.

 

3D Printer ate my Shroom Chest and 50 Pixels, but the chest is nowhere to be found in the Schematics. It works with Hi-Tech Chests though.

 

Item: The Rustic Oven and Barrel Fire are labeled as storage containers when they are being used for crafting.

 

Tomato seeds look like a big tomato in inventory.

 

STEAM BUG:
steam_api.dll is preventing start of the game. No log files were written. "Play" button starts Steam process for 100-200ms, and then silence.
Found this when replace steam_api.dll with cracked one.
I bought game by the preorder and activated before it appeared in Steam. What a kind of bug is this you think?
VIsta Premium x64 SP2

After the replace game started normally but only thru starbound.exe.
When Steam starts the game - process starbound.exe hangs up consuming about 600 Mb of memory and 0% of CPU.

 

Using a shield makes me get killed in one shot while blocking on lvl 20+ areas.

 

Not sure if this has been posted already BUT
When you reach the core on a planet and you place blocks into the lava under any kind of ore, there's a chance that the ore is going to appear on the placed blocks as if they were generated there but wasn't able to appear yet, because there are no blocks being generated here. I tested this on 3 planets and it worked on multiple places, here is a screen: http://i.imgur.com/Fkewxq1.jpg

 

I think it's because after the planet was generated, some lower layers of blocks just get replaced with lava, but information about ores in the game is saved.

 

Okay, so over the weekend I also encountered the teleportation "bug". It is not a bug. We found the solution while playing multiplayer, and monitoring the server output. The travel animation is indeed a planet loading screen. And in single player sometimes it ends sooner then the planet loads (Guess the "crappier" the processor, the longer it takes). When you can't beam down, it's because the planet is not loaded yet, so you have nowhere to beam to. As soon as it loads, the teleporter works again.

Also, edit so I don't spam posts:

- ABC songs not specifically written for band play are out of sync
-ABC songs not written for band play make the other band members not give any sound effects, just the music notes, even though they appear to be playing the song
- ABC song sync for some reason murders server performance.. tried it with 3 people and we quickly had to abort, because the server ground to a halt

 

Two movement bugs i came across, not sure if they are related:
1. When diggign down all the way to the lava and replacing lava blocks with solid ones to dig to the very bottom of a world: if you stand on the 'rock' bottom', the lower end of the screen, you are unable to move. Only fix is to log out.
2. When using the 'gravity bubble' tech: if you fall on a trap an take damage and then try flying out of that trap using gravity bubble you cannot move left or right, only fly up or fall down. Also you cannot place any blocks while in this state.

 

It would be great, if you could check ever bug and tell me if it was fixed or not.

 

This was probably already posted, but you can duplicate items in the 3D Printer.
Thought I'd just get that out there some more so Devs can fix it in next update.

 

Flesh block is made out of crystals.

 

Drops seem to pick up/disappear if you are near them with full inventory while using a chest. Either that or they have broken drop lifetimes.
On a related note,
An accidental swing of certain block-breaking weapons (Like the bonehammer) can easily wipe out multiple chests if they are sitting on top of platforms, causing the bug mentioned earlier.

 

If you input nothing into the text inputs at the join server page under the multiplayer tab the game crashes. (No check for null entries? xD)

 

There seems to be a large amount of lag in the same spot due to either height change or loading a bunch of enemies at the same time (Observed while jumping up platforms to reach an airship)

 

As others said, dunno if these bugs are already known

• If you try to jump and placing blocks under your char, sometimes it happens to be stucked in the blocks until you break them.
• Sometimes I can't place block if i'm near the position where i would place it.
• The cursor shows wrong recipes sometimes when scrolling the furnace ( ex. bandages recipes for wood planks )
• With full inventory, when you delete something from your inventory, all the items on the ground are shown as aquired, but they are still on the ground.
  
• In an Avian gun vendor, after the first time I bought weapons, the merchant disappeared and I could not find him other times.
• Armor shown in the stats are related to a single piece of armor ( if its the same sets ) (ex. Imperivm A6 instead of a total of 108 )
• Armor shown in the stats are related to the higher piece of armor ( if the same is different ).
• Sometimes crafting fails, or better, the crafted item won't appear in the inventory.
• The tech upgrade for durasteel+ won't disappear when used
• ***SPOILER***There are two mk3 starmap upgrades. The one you can craft from the robotic crafting table and the one the third boss drops.
• The travel animation is showed even if you are travelling to the same planet ( you should not be able to travel on the same planet imho ).
• ( I'm not certain on this one ) Even if i covered up a poison lake with dirt I got poisoned when I walked on.
• The energy recover seems bugged at night ( It should be lower, but it seems the same ) *** Using the poisoned flower as backpack ***
• Platinum are on tier 4 planet.

Suggestion

• Assault rifles damage on the same mob levels are way too low, i would balance it a bit more (I hit 4-5 on Lv40 mobs, assuming i'm using a 40 armor pen assault rifle)

I'm sorry for my not-perfect english and if I rewrite bugs already written from other players.
Thanks for your work!

 

• I change game to fullscreen mode and when I alt-tab to desktop and go back in to game, the setting for full screen resets.
• The quest "Out of the frying pan" says you need coal to make a furnace, but when you look in the crafting, coal is not a requirement to make a stone furnace.

 

• Asset loading is broken in linux. The game can't start on anything but an ext* filesystem

 

Just tossing in three for now.

When underground and when the background is visible (i.e.: the “painted” background), sometimes when trasitioning from one background to another, the entire background will “flash” a flat color in the transition. (running an nVidia GT 560)

Breaking the sand beneath a tree that's sitting atop nothing but sand will cause the tree to completely disappear.

Your character stands at four blocks high, but monsters can knock you back into gaps of only three blocks high, rendering you stuck until you dig yourself out.
