    That's right. It must be fun !

    And damn!, I've never thought about using two graping hooks at the same time ><

    I realise that this is kind of a harsh challenge so,

    every 3 tiers you can obtain a new weapon

    just pants: wear pants only, no shirt/breast plate no hats/helmets
    Just shirt:shirts only
    Just hats: hats only
    Realism nudist: you can only carry whats on your hot bar you don't were clothes or armor (not even vanity)
    and you must return to were you arrived on the planet before going back to the ship.and permadeath.

    Isn't this Impossible?

    ghosts n goblins:
    at 75% health remove chest piece/shirt
    at 50% health remove leg amor/pants/loincloth
    at 25% health remove helmet/hat
    restoring health restores armor (if you pass those %s)
    undurable armor: same as above exept restoring health doesn't restore armor (destroy armor if damaged past that point)
    no idea what to call this one: same as above but you can no longer were armor in that slot
    no idea what to call this one either:same as 1st and 3rd you can no longer wear armor in that slot until healed enough
    good luck!

    halo: you may only carry 2 weapons at a time:viking:

    TheDeviousDuck Void-Bound Voyager

    Kerbal Space Program: Start game, beam down, and build a launch vehicle. DO NOT BEAM UP, until you've built the rocket.
     
  9. Thalant

    Thalant Zero Gravity Genie

    Building a rocket? What are you talking about?
     
  10. Garatgh Deloi

    Garatgh Deloi Master Astronaut

    It seems to me that he means having to build a rocket/ship/whatever on a world before you allow yourself space flight (beaming up). This whole thread being about creating arbitrary challenges in starbound.
     
  11. Campaigner

    Campaigner Giant Laser Beams

    Apex Mutant Challenge
    Create an Apex with yellow skin and green fur. Must use the bald hairstyle. Try to get the smallest beard you can.
    Play on Survival Mode (when it's out) for hunger mechanics.
    Use /admin to spawn the following items;
    - Two Gauntlets
    - One Banana Seed
    - A Hoe and Watering Can
    Get growing on those bananas, they're your only food because it's genetically altered. Do not eat ANYTHING else.
    Play naked. APE NOT NEED CLOTHES.

    EDIT:
    Optionally, spawn in a scientist costume and roleplay as a scientist who screwed up.

    doll13 Void-Bound Voyager

    grain eater: you may only eat recipes that use grain or pure grains
    no sun and no fertile soil: fraking universe mod challenge, you can only grow things in hydroponics and you may not use solar panels for energy
     
  13. Ciryl_lynyard

    Ciryl_lynyard Space Hobo

    heres one:
    Money is power:
    scan quests must be done by buying the racial items from any shopkeeper if possible
    weapons, armor and consumables (except food) are uncraftable so you'll have to farm pixels to buy your items
    any mods are allowed
    the strategy i intended for this is to build a large colony or space station to get shopkeepers and just cycle through them until you can buy what you want
    you can make this harder by only getting shop keepers in a space station or just not using colony deeds
    goal is to beat mainstoryline

    Wolf1e Void-Bound Voyager

    Castaways Challenge

    Beam down to planets with nothing in your inventories. No weapons, Food, Money, etc.

    Take it a step further and lose the armor.

    Here's a helpful tip: When you make enough money, build a merchant's house to buy armor.

    ---------

    Digestion Issues

    Only eat what your race is capable of eating. If you eat anything else it just won't sit well in your stomach. Would you eat Nuts'n'Bolts?


    Humans: Wells I think you guys got this figured out.
    Avians: Birds are cannibals but they can eat a wide range of things like fish, meat, veggies, fruits, even candy. They love candy.
    Apexs: Vegetarian
    Florians: Purely meat... They're not cannibals. Sheesh! To them it's like pretty much being a vegetarian.
    Glitches: Metal
    Hylotls: Seafood
    Novakids: Anything Spicy
