i'm pretty sure it's just the game doing the funny, i've had similar stuff with the "square pieces" before, you just need to exit game and reload and it should work
@AK5Z neato
273 days for one observable universe is really damn fast
for reference, during post-"final"-battle Zenith went from the absolute edge of the universe (beyond observable) to the solar system in about a month, and somewhat faster from there to the edge (though he did get delayed there, due to having to fight a giant space horse thing...)
@AK5Z hmm
so the real TYC is 1.2k light years away, your rendition is at trappistan distances
i'd say your current estimate of 58 can be put under 40 (±20) ly, which is pretty good
that said, though, what are the interstellar technologies of both relevant species? i assume they're well under 1c though, since you mentioned that they meet in 2195 so that's ~200 years if starting from modern times
if you ever get to releasing your NH lore, would you be okay with me making a comparison it of it and my Hypernova? (not a "which is better" kind of thing, but a comparison of things like the future scifi tech used, time span it takes place in, and so on)
@H3itorrrr click on community in the top tab, go to forums, there should be a "new post" button, click on that, it will make you choose a category (make sure you choose the right one since you can't change it here) and then you can write title and text as normal
i'm not a vizzy expert, but ig you could try to use a repeater piece (should be in the second button with the arrows and pieces), though you will need to remake some parts of it (get rid of just the "wait until", put the remaining stuff into the repeater, and put that in a "if" piece with it bound to AG4 (if AG4=true))
yeah, i've noticed too that the forums generally aren't very active during most times
that said, though, i am also hoping that in the future we can more easily communicate with the Chinese players, they make some really good stuff and i'm sure the rest of the playerbase could benefit loads from their advice
@CloakPin they still do
that said, though, if you need to increase their rigidity, my usual solution is to increase the stability modifier - you can access this by enabling the advanced properties switch and then also tinker panel (so yeah, sadly it's not career compatible if that's your aim), you will find it at the top of the tinker panel menu, i don't know much about how it works but if you follow the hover-over instructions it should work fine
@Seeya appropriate reaction
and honestly, even if i lost SR2, which is still my favourite game, i still have Terraria and like 5 different F-Zero games on emulators to keep me entertained, and that's just offline games, with internet introduced you get the whole mass of Roblox and the funky world of online games
edit: nevermind, i just had to load a game... bruh
devs, this almost gave me a heart attack :skull:
only my settings got reset to default (shame, because i had some beyond-the-limit XML modded settings, most notably the 500% ambient light at night & space so i could actually see) but everything else is still there
they can do a wide variety of things, some things can in fact only be made with them, but problem is that they require actual difficult math to use, so i wouldn't recccommend it, stick to remap curves and basic arithmetics
(bonus: the fact that my fairly low intelligence means i can't make use of PS expressions is the main and possibly only reason why i can't get any better at planet building so i'm just stuck at heavily modifying existing templates or making some basic 3-biome thing with blank template)
@LeMagicBaguette i specifically wanted to make sure that the GIF's won't absolutely shred mobile data, so it's only three frames with a 2-second delay (the site i used, imgflip, also did some major compression)
@AK5Z by "dwarf planet update" do you mean something for VBSS or something else? Worand 1.1 will have a dwarf planet added (and a pretty epic one at that) alongside the above mentioned asteroid moon & submoon, plus maybe one or two extras and updates to the current moons, but apart from that, idk
@JanusSpaceIndustries yes
there will be 2 more protagonists later on, Nadir and Azimuth (to keep the cosmic theme), both acquired roughly around the same time, that is around the mid-late point of the story
@JanusSpaceIndustries ofc later in the series he extends his "services" to other aliens due to the alliances that were formed between aliens and humans
as for alien tech, he also does check out some of them but i haven't gotten to that yet
@JanusSpaceIndustries basically his only purpose is to just assist and protect humans, so in-universe he just tries out human stuff and grabs some of the stuff that he likes for himself
@JanusSpaceIndustries he's basically what happens if you take IRL me, add a bit of anime-tier plot armor and make it extremely chaotic
it's bern toned down a bit since this is the old version (won't be updated)
@Pedro understandable, thanks
