Terraforming (leveling) is the biggest pain for me, followed by food (I mean eating 6 salamis, then a few minutes of work later having to eat again) When building, having to remove a miss place block or a simple change of mind, take too long. Having the block spec (hit point for the blocks, dmg for the weapons) in the information pane, but I guess that fall in global. Update: the turret sound is too loud, when inside the base
I'd like a pop-up window for entering an amount with CTRL+click instead. If you need to queue more than a few tens of a recipe, then it's probably faster to type a few numbers and get exactly what you want, than figuring out what combination of CTRL+click, SHIFT+click, and click you need.
Some option to add a module to your suit that auto-eats when your food/drink starts to tun low. Handy for late game.
I dislike managing the cargoboxes. I dislike the dirty way the voxels behave. they are waaaaaaay too janky. WHAT I HATE THE ABSOLUTE MOST IN THE GAME IS MICROMANAGING THE DIFFERENT STATES OF MY FLASHLIGHT AND 1ST /3RD PERSON PERSPECTIVE!! Flashlight: STAY ON DAMN YOU!!! Bloody thing turns off every time you enter and exit a cockpit or load. Perspective: I want the game to remember that I set the ship to 3rd person and stay in 1st person when I'm on foot - unless I manually change that. Having to reset the flaslight and perspective settings every time I leave a cockpit is slowly driving me insane.
Biggest pains in the game right now: - Not being able to "repair to blueprint" on a ship (or base) with missing blocks after combat. - Collecting raw pentaxid. It has to be the most boring task in any game I've played yet, and 100% necessary for travelling. They are actually making me reconsider playing anymore. They are such timer wasters they bring the entire game down. There are a lot of other problems that can be looked past during Alpha like bad AI, empty wilderness and so on, but not those two.
Mining asteroids for it isn't as boring. I view picking it up from the ground/water a last resort for when one gets stranded.
Haven't mined a Pentaxid asteroid before - they're so rare you almost need to know where to find one first. Do they respawn their resource like crystals on the moon do? I'm editing some YAML files prior to a new game to add it in as a rare resource deposit on a few moons. At this point I view the material as a necessary evil.
Pentaxid can be added as an ore just like the rest. you just need to write it into your YAML file as its not standard.
Correct. Just not easy after the game was already in progress. Nor for larger universes you didn't create. Etc etc..
Wow, I wholeheartedly second this post. Yeah leveling is a huge pain in the butt because it takes forever to get all the potholes worked out sometimes AND the "fix a change of mind" when building.
My least favorite thing is collecting pentaxid. [EDIT] . Looks like they made moves to fix this in 7.0! Is it enough for me though? Likely NOT, I'm just too lazy. Picture this: You're on the way to get Eres and Zasc... its going to be a sweat-inducing mission. Do I want to go around the moon risking my crappy SV on the collection? There's just something missing to the collection process that makes it un-stimulating. Not sure how to express it but it's probably worthless.
When the server connection seems bad and the only option you get is a "Quit" button. Thanks devs. What the hell? Can this be improved Devs? Maybe a re-establish connection button? Some extra info on what happened? Please pretty please? Also, communication is pretty lousy atm. On MP , we have to wait till X is on-line (if not a steam contact) Specifically faction to faction e-mail would be nice. They do have e-mail in the future right? Same goes for messaging your team. A notice or direct message (if only just for admins) would be a good start. Right now that is *REALLY REALLY REALLY* sorely lacking. Like not even up to Early Access standards, imho. I would be happy with the tiniest hint of improvement in that sense.
I miss chat windows.... Could be like: Global - Playfield - Faction - Private And that you die from -25 degrees... i am from Norway, trust me, I don`t die... specially when i have my armor on
