[QUOTE=crimsonwingzz;43561909]I hope they make some type of capability of creating mech type machines where you can add legs to it. Then you could have mechs in a ship and drop them off on an asteroid to gather the resources. Would be pretty awesome if they made that type of capability.[/QUOTE] if you could attach blocks to conveyer belts then i think you could do it in a massively impractical way. but depending on how conveyers work (mostly if they can move you along like tank treads) then just having those instead would almost definitely be better in every way possible
I cant actually manage to join anything, but I really wanna test how my armorless fighter designs hold up against heavier ships Considering everything including armor is basicaly toilet paper, they'll hopefully do reasonably
watched a friend fly a mining vessel into a rock strapped 3 large warheads to a block nearby to him according to the beacon on his ship, the explosion sent him over 150,000km away almost instantly. in other news I have discovered faster than light speeds.
I think the suit dampeners stop working after a certain point, because I too was sent hurtling into space across vast distances by explosives.
[QUOTE=Terminutter;43559306]Space engineers requires moonbase alpha style text to speech.[/QUOTE] Me and Veger should ask devs about that. This thing will make SE a real GOTY 2014
Did they playtest the MP? :v: I know that's what we're doing but we can't test it if it crashes to desktop loading in.
[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;43562207]I think the suit dampeners stop working after a certain point, because I too was sent hurtling into space across vast distances by explosives.[/QUOTE] oh god imagine if your jetpack just suddenly stopped working and you went flying into space i'm paranoid that that's gonna happen now
[QUOTE=RocketRacer;43562212]Me and Veger should ask devs about that. This thing will make SE a real GOTY 2014[/QUOTE] Already threw it in. :v:
[QUOTE=BandClassHAH;43562217]Did they playtest the MP? :v: I know that's what we're doing but we can't test it if it crashes to desktop loading in.[/QUOTE] As far as I know they've had MP in the works since the alpha release, maybe before, since LAN and whatnot seems to have had traces in the code since then, and specifically last week they mentioned testing it, so we're seeing it early and they're still ironing out things. Probably figured the community would like even a slightly broken version than none at all. I appreciate it; MP is a stupidly difficult thing to get down right away.
[QUOTE=BandClassHAH;43562217]Did they playtest the MP? :v: I know that's what we're doing but we can't test it if it crashes to desktop loading in.[/QUOTE] Everyone has different computers and the engines reacts to everything differently. Besides that one might play 64 bit while the other plays 32 bit, perhaps the other has not enough RAM, maybe because a mod is interfering with something or it could be something in the background that is messing with the server. Besides you have people joining other worlds which are massive or have a lot of blocks in it. Perhaps some player spamming lights and the list goes on and on and on... Long story short, there are a lot of things that could cause the crashes.
I was eager to finally test my dakka fighter against a live player, unfortunately I get stuck on loading and it won't ever join. Oh well, alpha and all :v:
Also the speech itself is DECTalk - Paul
I keep getting ejected 10,000 meters into space and have to fly all the way back again :(
[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;43562134]in other news I have discovered faster than light speeds.[/QUOTE]how much explosives do you need to propel a 200 meter ship?
I managed to join an MP world once but I couldent build anything, oh well [editline]16th January 2014[/editline] I really hope they fix the MP before next thursday, it has massive potential if it actually works :v:
i got out of a ship i was building in MP with a friend and randomly ended up 900,000m away this is what happens you move about that far away [video=youtube;PhrA02NykFA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhrA02NykFA[/video]
friend me to join my server.
Me and pigbear have 2 very different design philosophies when quickly building little ships :v: Mine: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ME7YxJw.jpg[/IMG] His: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/4eZvdub.jpg[/IMG] No points for guessing who won :v:

I got to play on two servers and so far it seems pretty cool, but anymore than 2 players and there is a large noticeable delay from when you place down/delete blocks and when they actually start appearing. On both servers the moment the a 3rd player joins he just jetpacks to the nearest fighter and starts blowing everything up causing more lag but so far multiplayer feels good with just one buddy. [editline]16th January 2014[/editline] We had to use beacons to communicate with each other too which left the server littered in them :V

I can host a server so long as people aren't just firing missiles and crap everywhere lagging it up, but people will have to friend me to get onto it. [editline]16th January 2014[/editline] Its also a blank map without a spawn even. So you have to cooperate and not blow it up. (Sgt_Doom...)

ok, it take it none of you want to play multiplayer or there is another server I just don't see.
[QUOTE=darth-veger;43561896]Then you can wait for a rather long time as far as i can tell. :v:[/QUOTE] At the same time as thinking it wouldn't really be a quick job, I'm also thinking, well they've rehashed some shit from Miner Wars, why not the AI so we can have defense shit?
Yeah, uh, there may be a tiny bug in Space Engineers... [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/EJ44UKz.png[/IMG] Well, I say tiny. This text file has actually consumed my entire hard drive. Fix yer game, Keen! (Seriously, though, fix it.) It's a log file, so I can only assume that it's logging whatever it is, all the time.
If I join a facepunch server, I want you guys to know that my name is Box. [editline]16th January 2014[/editline] course you'll probably recognize my ultra fuck hueg dreadnaught.
[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;43562655] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/4eZvdub.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] The prophecy is fulfilled, not even 24 hours and the borg cubes have arrived wreck shit up in mp.
I can't join most servers and the ones I can join are either so laggy, it's like playing on a toaster, or I spawn in a fucking asteroid. I did manage to confirm that copy-paste works though, so now some jackass has a copy of my dreadnaught :\
My game just sits on the "Joining World" screen forever. On the plus side it doesn't crash, but that's about it.
