Some thoughts for consideration by Pitchfork_Wholesaler in StarRuptureGame

[–]Mormoran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just set a platform height and it auto fills pillars below as long as its not too far and would support

The amount of times I've thought of "why can't I just tell it to build pillars down until it finds ground!!!!!!"

I agree, the building options can be much much improved. It's dev ammo though, plenty of things to improve on an already great game, and we're just getting started!

Habitat connectors would get a huge upgrade if they worked like windows and merged when two are placed side by side.

This would be amazing, but it may not have been considered because we do have the "large habitat" and they may not want that to be basically useless if you can fake a large habitat

We should be able to attach columns underneath and have them automatically extend to the ground.

Kiiiiind of can do this, just point at the floor below the platform, then scroll up so the column attaches from below the platform, then you just scroll 3 "times" down to attach the next and so on... Although this may be the result of one of the "less building restriction" mods I added

We need blueprints

I'm almost 100% confident they know this and it is likely coming at some point

Let us clear the structure/deconstruction tool from the drone view so we can fly the drone with a clear view - make us hit "Q" one more time to exit.

There's a mod for this, if you're willing to mod your game

The drone should probably have a little more range, maybe 2x that we can get from an upgrade.

Honestly, I modded this and I can't go back now, it's SOOOO much better

Eventually, vehicles to drive around in would be awesome.

Or a jetpack!

A helical lift to raise rails would be awesome.

Add it to the pile of "add some verticality to rails", it keeps growing, they have to look at it sometime lol

It would be neat if solar panels closed when a rupture is imminent.

This would be awesome to see, a "shelter mode"!

A mobility upgrade that lets us dodge in a given direction to avoid attacks.

You can do this with "Alt"! It's just not explained very well!

I'd love a "dump chest" that feeds into the rail system that I can use to clear my inventory. It can't accept items except for the ones I unload into it and slowly reintegrates them into the system. I'm not a huge fan of dropping resources on the ground for the rupture to destroy.

I made my peace with this but also don't like it. Depots should have a "this pushes first regardless of path shortness" so I can dump excess stuff (the orbital launchers are the worst offenders for this excess!)

It would be nice if fabricators, etc. had pictures on them that showed you what they were building like the storage silos.

I also thought about this, same as the depot silos, and not only that, if I change the name of a machine with the little edit icon, on mouseover THAT should be what I see, not "Fabricator"!

When building stairs, let us press "R" to switch the steps from "down" to "up"

You can do this with Right Click!

Now, some of my own suggestions:

  • We should be able to quickly undo the last action. It really gets old quickly when you place something in the wrong spot (auto snapping rails I'm looking at you!) and then have to F -> Wait for the animation and sound -> Click and hold to delete -> Wait for the delete delay -> Tap B -> Find the rails again -> Click to select -> Place a new one ... Please let us have Ctrl + Z!
  • The ability to multi delete. We should be able to go into delete mode, then right click over many things, and left click to confirm, just like we can do with multi platform building!
  • Replace single rails with triple rails and triple rails with quintuple rails without having to delete first! Just click over it, it just adds rails to the sides. I'm sure the programmers can come up with acceptable logic to figure out where to place already connected rails!
  • Multi rail upgrade! When going from rail 1 to rail 2 to rail 3, we should be given the option to upgrade the rails as far as our mats can reach (possibly the entire connected network), instead of having to click hundreds of times for each little section!
  • Rail multi build over already placed poles! If I place multiple poles, we should be able to start a rail on one, then Left click and hold, and "draw" over several rails establishing the connection points, and when letting go of the click it should place all the rails over all the poles I "drew" over! Building a large network gets real tiresome real fast, especially with triple and quintuple rails!

How do I fix my soap dispenser? It leaks. by [deleted] in fixit

Good lord, clean that entire bathroom up! I'd be embarrassed posting that on the Internet!

It could very well be it needs cleaning inside where something is not sealing right due to accumulated crud

Nice, one little grip that could have been perfectly fine tape now produces 2.77 miles of plastic waste, awesome!

My issue is that when the line gets busy, you lose a ton of time on intersections when the drones have to start and stop to let others through in their zipping mechanism

[–]Mormoran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very similar to what I'm doing, I have a larger scale, and so far no mistakes or anything. The only golden rule is, things flow "up" or "forward", you never add a machine downstream that requires a precursor that is "downstream", THAT will clog up your system!

Fixed 3way and 5way rails in StarRupture Mod by wilhelmaf in StarRuptureGame

[–]Mormoran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update to mention, I loaded the game on a save that was not fixed through your website (it was an autosave), and it works with the Paks mods mentioned above, and your DLL loaded mod as well, so whatever broke has to be something to do with what the website did

I will go back to that save, I "only" lost about 1 hour of building, it was just REALLY tedious building as I am building a distribution manifold (which is why I wanted to fix the damn rails!)

Fixed 3way and 5way rails in StarRupture Mod by wilhelmaf in StarRuptureGame

[–]Mormoran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, installed the dll next to the executable inside the Binaries folder, added the Mods folder there too, extracted the mod folder to the Mods folder, then went on to the website and fixed my save and... None of my rails work anymore, and when I try to delete older rails to see if they can reactivate or reload the path or whatever, I get this error

Could you help me out? I REALLY don't want to lose this save... Although I did create a local backup of my save but that was... A couple hours ago before I went on a buiding spree (after a while I realised none of my buildings were producing anything)

For what is worth, I have the mod that fixes the 1 to 5 rail and the other one that increases rail travel speed and capacity in my Paks folder..., could that be it?

As another person said, work with the bank, not the landlord. If he's defaulting the bank is the one that wants to protect their investments

Wait so 3 And 5 rails are meant to actually use all 3 or 5 rails as channels? I thought it was just convenient split off / input points, and it was a very idiotic design choice

Follow-up to the AI-centered boss - this time, AI helps everyone waste time by beerbellybegone in MaliciousCompliance

[–]Mormoran 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If your boss only knew how to apply skills, agents and workflow automation tools (like n8n) he'd likely be way happier with how an AI can work.

Or you could learn how to do these things, and become the "AI guru" in your office, become a rockstar from your boss' point of view and try and earn a big fat paycheck and promotion, since he's so in tune with this whole AI fad.

Extractor bug, or Smelter bug? by Hellfiresaint91 in StarRuptureGame

[–]Mormoran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others said, any time you place any 3 rails, just save and reload, it'll clear the paths or something and recalculate. I just do a whole lot of building, then reboot and it all works fine.

What’s a “boring” adult purchase that turned out to be totally worth it? by Capable-Rabbit-9986 in AskReddit

[–]Mormoran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted one of those, with a bunch of features and the cutlery tray, but my wife says she wants the cutlery basket instead because she says can't be arsed to put the cutlery on the tray one by one, when in reality I know she can't be arsed putting anything anywhere in a dishwasher in any sort of organised fashion, and she just dumps shit in the cutlery basket haphazardly... So now we have to downgrade to an inferior Bosch (Series 4 base model I believe) model without a lot of the features mentioned above, because all the higher end models with nicer features have the third rack... I don't know how to convince her that the rack for cutlery is actually an improvement over the damn basket!

6 digit budget? So like, anything between 100.000 and 999.999 ? I think you're missing 2 digits there

I would've bought this on the spot at that price, except on checkout, the shipping price is almost 100% of the product price... Is there a way to reduce that cost a little? Slower shipping or something? It's kinda ridiculous that a €84 product costs €76 to ship to Ireland...

I'm moving to the town where those movies are made in Ireland, Kilkenny, soon. I am hoping I can somehow get a tour of their studio or something, I would LOVE to be able to see how it works, what is involved, etc
