    Lol Get used to scrapping designs if you build like I do. I just start and then see where it takes me, I erased more BPs than I've completed by ten fold

    Same here. I like Experimenting, but one bugger to Experimenting is that some Experiments fail.

    Playing around with the new update. When the full 6.0 is released this game is going to be a different game.
    The Weather system is going to allow us to create some EPIC pictures and video clips.

    I started fighting some drones and a base at the same time. SO I thought I would add a little Meteor Shower during the battle to give it a little Michael Bay effect. lol

    After work yesterday I raced home, logged in, and updated. My MP server had wiped, and I had to start over...... Awesome! I immediately scurried around to find a couple of POIs. Dodging drones like captain Kirk under Gorn mortar fire I ran in and found boosters, and even a single suit of heavy armor. Life is good. Later on I assaulted a gang of spear wielding locals, and I found one single corn sprout. I now have everything I need, even a T2 drill.

    Radiating rain means I had to add a roof to my starter base. I usually just layout a platform. All in all, I'm pretty pleased with the changes.

    I'm just enjoying playing the game after events in real life pulled me away for a time. I did a clean install, ticked the Exp. branch and wow! I was on 5.XX when I left and the changes wrought by 6.XX are transformative. Kudos to Eleon, I wasn't expecting anything so extensive.

    Was it you who had a quest to build farm on the each of the planets? I kinda wondered what happened with that.

    My wife did that. She is the farmer and cook in our family. I kill and loot my food from aliens.

    That was me. Thank you for remembering! The idea was to build a self-sufficient Base on every planet. I think that I'd managed 7 planets before I had to set the game aside for a while. I will give that quest another go from scratch as soon as I understand all of the changes.

    I normally am not too into experimental branches (I dunno why, I start over so often it really shouldn't matter). But today... I had the opportunity to take my PC to family's house and download the 6.0 experimental on their wi fi. I couldn't take it anymore....

    I wanted to play Empyrion. But knowing the game changers were coming with environmental hazards and weather, I couldn't do it. I wanted to build ships, but I didn't know what would be airtight
    Have experimental now and I can continue building at the very least. So much new stuff it's like Christmas! That's it, I'm starting this next game on Ningues and my base needs a red and green color theme.

    We started a refit today. It's going to take us a while as it's quite an important one to us.

    Where do you normally keep your pc if not in the house with your family and you?

    Discovering new ways to hunt!

    It seems harvester module is useful after all. In addition to trees, you can mow down also animals! What a thrilling way to hunt... :cool:

    Well to be honest harvester module seems to be quite OK in a more dense planets, been clearing my way to POI's. But finding additional uses for it was nice :cool:

    I own my own house, but with present financial situation I cannot afford an internet service. I get my phone data, that's what I'm on the forums with.


    In other news, I was just trying to puzzle a way to make an "air pipe" through the floor connecting a few rooms which for privacy's sake aren't using glass doors. I expected the flat wall blocks to not be airtight but they are, and I wanted to be able to texture it. For a while I tried using trigger plates - texturable and not airtight - until I realized it was making a "Bing!" Noise when I walked everywhere.

    Found the perfect solution... textureable stair blocks! Flipped upside down so the flat side is walked on, but not airtight so I'm using a row of them to connect these rooms in a chain.

    Another beautiful cloudy day on Auka. The clouds make the game look almost realistic like you're watching a movie. Screenshot (534).png

    Wouldn't the shutter windows - without the actual window - would fit the part quite well? Or you want your air ducts to be 100% concealed?
