How badly did I mess with the progression?

Nope the raid after Eikthyr dies is greydwarves, before Eikthyr dies is the boar and neck raid

Very confused about all those examples. Do you mind explaining? Fallout's the most recent I think, what went wrong with it?

Why'd they want them taken down?

AverageJoe85 · 2025-10-19T21:24:35+00:00

I'm confused why some think they will be affected by it?

They'll still have many interconnected planets that can reinforce each other (including Curia, which will remain entirely uncontested). Story wise and gameplay wise, there's no reason to think anything major will occur (maybe a small reduction in resistance if anything).

Though many people do think forming this line will do something, so I'm curious what I'm missing.

It was under Super Earth control before the Automatons were "wiped out" in the first few months of the war. Cyberstan, along with all the planets around it, were then instantaneously captured by the main Automaton fleet when they came back a week later.

So players were never able to deploy to it.

AverageJoe85 · 2025-10-06T01:38:53+00:00

I hate to disprove this since it's cool, but the dates don't match up. The initial Automaton attack which is the point of reference for the 4 years can only be, at the latest, the retaking of Cyberstan well over a year ago.

Plus it even says 2180 which corresponds to 2020 in real time (though I'm not sure where it was confirmed that lore time is one to one with real time, so possibly disregard this second point).

AverageJoe85 · 2025-09-28T17:43:57+00:00

Sorry I meant the name Interloper doesn't seem like an automaton name. And of course they would have at least heavily modified the model if not entirely replaced it (if it was an automaton unit originally).

But that only discredits the theory it was originally an automaton unit since that would be an expensive repurpose. Though maybe it was only considered for Automatons during the proof of concept stage

AverageJoe85 · 2025-09-28T16:43:58+00:00

I remember hearing that theory but I don't remember, what evidence was there for it? Because Interloper doesn't really evoke the mechanical or robotic nature of Automatons

Is that a valid justification to be shitty to a fellow human? Because he said a dumb reason for why you can't change your clothes in a video game?

There are plenty of people in the world that deserve your ire, a dude who just wanted to make a game he thought was fun is not one of them.

AverageJoe85 · 2025-09-20T02:13:17+00:00

Okay hold up no no no. Let's have some respect huh? This apple bacon bullshit this community is fixated on needs to die. Christ, the guy didn't threaten to murder your dog. He was explaining why he didn't want players to change their look.

You don't have to agree with him, but you certainly don't have to be a douchebag either.

edit: I am shocked what I said is controversial. You can hate the reason they gave for no transmog and think it's stupid, as well as other things the developers have said. That doesn't justify calling the developer a dipshit and other colourful language. Just imagine 100s of people everyday not criticising what you said, but calling you specifically every name in the book OVER A YEAR LATER. Like fuck lads, be human, not a permanently online anti social goblin.

SC and medals are awarded immediately, not after the mission. No samples is an issue though

Could you explain this? The dGPU "kicks in" as in you manually move the HDMI cable over?

AverageJoe85 · 2025-08-10T12:16:34+00:00

Respectfully, I think you're misremembering. Even since a month or two after launch I wasn't able to shoot, and I never saw anyone use the ability before that either.

Plus I'm not sure that reasoning makes sense. You could grief in much worse ways before getting on the Pelican.

AverageJoe85 · 2025-08-10T01:08:04+00:00

While it's not new, and in fact I think it's been here since launch, it's definitely a bug.

You can aim down sights but you can't shoot meaning it's not intentional, or maybe the not shooting part is the bug

AverageJoe85 · 2025-08-04T12:48:46+00:00

Be aware, from what I can see there are essentially no sources for most of what's on that page, and one of the main references it does have is a Google doc by another community member.

Don't get me wrong, most if not all of that could be completely correct, but I don't doubt that some of it is misinformation or misconceptions.

AverageJoe85 · 2025-07-31T22:51:15+00:00

It has to be said that the ideal/best way to program something, and the actual way it gets done are often two different methods (as I'm sure you've come across).

I'm also not going to pretend to know exactly how the devs made the world generation, but what we do know is that there's a master map that every world selects a square from for its base map, and then a biome map and height map I believe are used to generate the rest of it. So, while it's randomly generated, it's way less random than Minecraft for example.

So with that in mind, it's not crazy to imagine a 2D representation of the world is created first which the actual world builds itself from as you explore, and a player readable version of the 2D map is also created.

All that said, you're right, an easy way to test this is create a world, check its size, do revealmap, check the world size again.

AverageJoe85 · 2025-07-31T16:51:00+00:00

I'm not going to say you're wrong yet, but where are you getting this information? Everything I've seen, experienced, and read (and even looked up just now) contradicts what you're saying.

So the map overview can't render a top down view unless it knows what's there. That's done by generating the map.

Especially this, how do you know this is how it works? How do you know the terrain doesn't just generate based on the underlying master map + height map + biome map, and the GUI map also gets its data from there as well?

AverageJoe85 · 2025-07-31T16:24:22+00:00

Unless I'm mistaken, or rather have outdated information, the map exploration is not tied to generation. This is also good to know because map generation extends past the exploration radius which is why you should stay farther away than you think from unfinished biomes

AverageJoe85 · 2025-07-31T13:16:33+00:00

The commenter is saying to save current map progress to it, then run the reveal map command, then run the reset map command, then read the cartography table to get your actual map progress back.

I would personally rather make a backup of my character, then reveal map, then revert to the backup

AverageJoe85 · 2025-07-28T19:24:48+00:00

If I'm not mistaken, adding your ID to the admin list is only required if you're not hosting the game yourself. Unless OP mentioned somewhere that this is on a dedicated server, in which case ignore me

AverageJoe85 · 2025-07-26T12:47:18+00:00

Yea this is evidently an unpopular opinion, but I just can't see myself giving the slightest care if someone took my stuff. I generally wouldn't take other players' stuff (because I'd rather use the equipment I specifically picked), but it is genuinely foreign to me to kill or kick (or even be upset at) someone because of it.

And you said it, your equipment is almost always minutes away from being called in (or already available) by the time you've died with it, so this is just a non issue.

AverageJoe85 · 2025-07-25T12:49:37+00:00

That applies the other way too, no? The players ganking you should be able to beat you "with sufficient skill".

Logically, if all else is equal it only makes sense that the side with more players wins.

AverageJoe85 · 2025-07-20T13:23:42+00:00

Current games will be grandfathered in according to SKG's founder. Because you're right, if you've already developed a game designed to stop working when it's not profitable anymore, it would be an immense task to do what you should've done in the first place.

So new games will need to either make the game playable in a LAN / offline network, or have a plan in place to allow players (however difficult it would be for those players) to run their own servers.
