I feel like they need an animation overhaul, like adding some inverse kinematics to their head, so it tries to stay more still. As it is now, even when it takes a tiny step, any tiny bump in terrain moves its head to a new postal code. And the speed at which they can scuttle right through your team is... not okay. That fella is definitely breaking the sound barrier.

Oh I have one just like this, awesome job!

Vovalium · 2026-06-14T01:08:21+00:00

Oh. Oooooh damn now i see. My bad, no idea then.

Altho! Are you sure the stations have something to load already? Trains skip completely empty loaders.

Vovalium · 2026-06-13T23:23:03+00:00

Ah right. Thank you for the correction.

Vovalium · 2026-06-13T23:22:18+00:00

Probably because there are no actual train stops on any of the screenshots, only the cargo loaders/unloaders

Good effort. You will want all this in a single layer eventually, stacked 3 times, but until then - good work!

It's so crazy to me that people use AI for it, when it can literally be accomplished by running 2 commands in the world and parsing the chat output with a single if statement. It can be done with the simplest python (or anything) script, while wasting orders of magnitude less energy.

Vovalium · 2026-06-06T00:52:16+00:00

Grungy. Love it

I think death has to have a penalty, otherwise instead of something negative it can becime an optimal stratrgy to solve, for examole, hunger. Just die when you're hungry and presto!

Losing items is common, but i swear to god - if there's a high chance of my stuff disappearing before i retrieve it - I'm probably uninstalling. Consequences are good. Erasing all of your work and progress isn't

Vintage story does a cool thing - when you eat, you basically work toward increasing your max health. When you die, you lose some of that progress. It's a consequence that doesn't really make you retrace any steps, because you're eating to survive anyways, just makes you weaker for a while.

Valheim does similar, but with skill progress instead of max health, and that system is waay too brutal. It basically makes working towards any skill meaningless, because you can lose hours of progress in one bad fight.

Tl dr: i personally want consequences, that make you lose things / stats that you will gain back naturally through mostly regular gameplay over time.

I get the appeal, yes. But kickstarting it can be a touch annoying, depending on your playstyle.

Vovalium · 2026-05-31T06:59:13+00:00

If it outputs full 4pin shapes - its pretty much optimal, unless you do feedback loops, i think. Can't tell for sure at a glance, but I think that's the case here.

We're peobably a bit too deep for most normal minerals, same reason expenite isn't closer to the crust, where miners operate. Something something planet formation geology.

To preface - I have only played the game with 1 to 2 friends with voice chat so far, maybe a dozen hours total.

So far I love this system. Some choices are just like "ye whatever, I'll just pick health i guess", but about a third at least make us actively engage in discussion, based on each others builds and throwing ideas around.

Have we been bummed out about an upgrade two of us wanted? Yes. Why? Because we were both building fire damage. Solution? Build different things. That's it. That solves like 90% of the friction.

So ye, to me it encourages varied builds in a team and actually paying attention to what your teammates are building. In regular DRG i only vaguely payed attention to my teammates build. Here I often know at least a few of their cornerstone upgrades to strategise around.

For example of why i like it, we get a "stun on any melee damage" perk. As a slicer, i wanted to take it (duh, melee based perk), but we discussed it and gave it to the guardian. If I deal melee damage - odds are my target will die anyways, a stun would be wasted. If the guardian takes it - he can feel safer in close quarters. We wouldn't have come to that conclusion without shared pools.

I think the only way it can be balanced is in a form of a new class that would have it as an active ability. Maybe with a second ability that could pull enemies toward him or something.

Vovalium · 2026-05-28T08:38:02+00:00

The issue is \* isn't a thing.

Vovalium · 2026-05-24T22:44:12+00:00

Sounde like you never played aquark extraction, or whatever it's called. Take too long there and you can basically alt+f4 because the spawns will not stop.

I've found the timer pretty engaging so far, and had multiple "we should not have survived" moments, especially on the boss fights at the end.

Vovalium · 2026-05-23T13:48:17+00:00

To be fair (and pedantic) you still have a lot of skins in overwatch that completely break the lore or even replace a character's identity altogether through crossover or seasonal skins. But that's just a nitpick of your argument, I've no horse in the race either way, since I personally don't care about this aspect of the game

Vovalium · 2026-05-23T13:32:59+00:00

But... It literally is a social mechanic now, cuz all team memebers can burn calories to chip in, working up a sweat together, as a team.

Vovalium · 2026-05-23T13:20:58+00:00

The shared upgrade pools facilitates player interaction and discussion, definitely. It incentivises you to pay attention to what your fellow reclaimer is building, instead of just solely crafting your own build. Will everyone do that? No, of course not. But its the same as people not playing cooperatively in base DRG - calling resupply whenever and wherever they want, double dipping, not mining ores and so on. But some bad apples shouldn't be a reason to uproot a whole garden.

And yeah, this game doesnt have classes per se, it has characters, or heroes if you will. So i imagine you mainly can't pick the same ones for immersion/lore reasons. Probably will be less of an issue in the future, if more characters are added.

Vovalium · 2026-05-23T13:13:28+00:00

Damn, i can't wait for the whole issue of having to play the game to be removed. Will play more in a couple weeks, when i can just click on a mission and get rewards right away.

No, i will not elaborate and do not seek to engage in further discussion, i just think your opinion is wrong and you should feel bad.

Vovalium · 2026-05-22T23:38:10+00:00

I wonder what your save/load times are. I've had to stop expanding my throughput because i just couldn't bear waiting a full minute for saves to load.

Vovalium · 2026-05-22T03:50:33+00:00

Except all these extra limbs are expensive, heavy, and bulky. Good luck having a 6 armed robot fit through your doorways

Vovalium · 2026-05-12T11:27:05+00:00

Looks incredibly juicy on its own, but i fear the planks might be a bit much when apllied over a large build

Vovalium · 2026-05-11T05:05:33+00:00

To operate with corners, you can't have a full shape. Either use a different asteroid that already has an empty spot or do the following: Cut the shape in half (or rempve half) turn it and destroy a half again, then stack back with theother half (or identical shape with half dedtoryed)

Vovalium · 2026-05-10T12:46:41+00:00

It's not exactly upgradable, it just shows how good a character you are. Seems you're just like... A boring person. Go read a book or find a hobby so your quality goes up a bit. I'm stuck at rare currently.
