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

Graphical / Weapons and Item
Just found a poison 2 handed weapon, attacked a mob and poisoned it in a cave, and the cave lit up as if the poison were a fire debuff.

 

Every time I beam down off my ship my game crashes 100% of the time. About half the time when i select my character my game crashes.

 

Confirmed as of last night @ around 2 AM EST. This is also the case when digging underground. Haven't noticed if it stops at a certain depth.

 

Items
After the major revamp patch, shields do not protect from damage (not even partially).

 

Mouse hover on this item cause the game to close itself, no way to move/delete so

 

I don't know if this is a bug, but the tier 1 crafting items are weaker than the starting sword

 

I was on a planet, about to trade with a merchant, my game crashed and I got 5 error boxes.
I reloaded the game, my ship was still in space, no other planets, no sun, I cant beam down and clicking E on the pilot seat crashes my game. I tried playing in multiplayer to join my friends ship but I cant chat in multiplayer, nor can I send or receive party invites.

After last bug could not open starbound as it told me it was already open. I complete closed it through my task manager and restarted steam. It still did not open so I deleted all the mods I had and now I'm in.

 

Yeah, I get this too.

 

I do apologize if it's already been mentioned, but I had an issue with the teleporter recently.

After completing the gather two iron bars mission, I tried to teleport back down to my planet, only to have it teleport me to my ship(that I was already on.) instead. This continued for a bout three more times, until it started working as normal. Nothing major, but kinda annoying.

 

There is a bug when you jump someone else's ship. Instead of moving their ship to another planet, it moves yours instead and uses their fuel.

Sorry if this was already mentioned, I did not look through the thread.

 

Items dropped still vanish very fast. Was cutting down 2 tress with the manipulator. The wood from the first tree were gone when I was not even done cutting the second one.

 

Alucard: Just had a thought. Have you thought about using a bugtracker like Mantis instead of the forum? Might be a bit more manageable.

 

Now my game crashes apon launching (I verified the game cache) http://gyazo.com/60ca2226d533f569e2b14e589e532334.png

 

My "Badass Nosedicer" has the lightning effect even though it says it has a fire effect. It is a 1-H weapon and has the same bug with the 2-H weapons having different effects.

 

Ubuntu: The game crashes a few seconds to a few minutes after character select. it appears to work fine otherwise, but soon after it starts it stops.

 

It is possible for Apex obstacle courses to double back on themselves. I traversed one, and it ended up running back into itself, thus not generating the room with the chest at the end.

By "doubling back", I mean the dungeon tries to create a series of rooms that leads into trying to build into space that has already been occupied by earlier rooms.

This isn't a hugely easy fix, but the generally accepted method of dealing with things like these is to make either the generation more strictly based on a grid (so it's easy to check for conflicting overlaps) and also create the start and the end first, and then link the two together by a series of obstacles.

Alternatively, they could be made more linear as opposed to zigzagging around.

 

I'm not entirely sure if the dungeon protection items are currently functional in game, but 2 worlds I've been on so far had the item spawn in a random cave near the surface, while the dungeon items were still destroyable regardless if its in one piece or not.

 

Severe: Other.

MODIFYING ASSETS ON CLIENT SIDE WORKS SERVER-SIDE (MULTIPLAYER).

How to reproduce: Modify any file in the assets folder in the root Starbound directory, then join any multiplayer server.

You can modify your assets (like armor stats, weapon stats, make new recipes (as long as the items exist), and almost anything relating to the asset files. THIS WORKS ON MULTIPLAYER.

Examples:

• Let's say Bob is a total doucher and he sets the protection stats and hp stats of his armor to 15000000 in his asset files (Starbound/assets/items/armor). Then, he goes on multiplayer. He is unkillable, with all the hits he takes going to 'BLOCKED'.
• Let's say Bob then decides to make his Broken Hero Sword a god-killer. He sets the damage to 123456789 and then, you can see what happens from there.
• Let's say Bob can't find any fuel. He takes dirt, and makes the fuel value 1000. For every dirt block Bob has, he can refill his entire ship.
• Let's say Bob wants more iron. He can make a recipe that takes 1 iron bar and turns it into a hundred.

All of the above WORK ON MULTIPLAYER.

The possibilities are almost limitless. I just tested this on a remote server that I did not have admin rights to.

 

Server error log spam after todays latest patch

server still functioned and havent seen the issue again since a restart
