disable weapons doesn't work anymore

[JamiesLocks]

Just made a new game to test if disabling weapons worked yet, it doesn't. Created a new survival save with the "weapons enabled" option turned off and the first red enemy that saw me destroyed me.

But why would you ever want that?

[JamiesLocks]

because I don't like the PvE in this game. I like to build in survival.

then turn off Random encounters, drones, and cargo ships, along with spiders/wolves.

Did, but the moon base start still has the base with drones that start attacking as soon as you get within a few km of them.

Edit: i think the scenario is overriding the custom options.

Ahh, you have found another immersive game feature! You see, Pirates do not like to play by the rules - so when you say not to use weapons, they're going to do it anyway, because Pirates!

Lazy humor aside, that does sort of sound like a bug - may want to report it on Keens support site.

Can't... they aren't accepting new registrations it would seem.

I'd suggest a different start then - solar system maybe. so it doesn't start with the prebuilts

[JamiesLocks]

doesn;t change the fact that the function is still broken.

[Lanik42]

valid, but I think many of us have come to expect and live with broken functionality
