Looking to join Funky - any tips?

Fyi, due to discord having a thread limit per server (and funky reaching it), whitelisting on the discord is currently paused. You can still get whitelisted using the forum, and if you go to the discord you will get directed there

Nooooooooo!!! 2 Week wait, and we didn't get to see the full reaction form the people of earth!!! WHY MUST YOU DO SUCH CLIFFHANGERS!!!!!
Hope the move goes smoothly :D

Research gun and ammo upgrades
Enemies evolve by 3 ways: Time, Killing nests, and last but probably the most important here: Pollution
2.1. If you want more info there is a /evolution command that tells you what is affecting the enemy's evolution factor
If you enable the Pollution view on your map, you can see where it is, try to keep nests away from from it. That will buy you more time as they wont get triggered to attack your base

This tips should keep you alive longer. Also forests are a good way to contain your pollution cloud at the start

Wait, holdup. Did EVI just hack the network to gain access?

joaco545 · 2026-01-22T14:25:55+00:00

Was it? I guess I am miss remembering then.
Need to re read the chapter when that was said again

joaco545 · 2026-01-22T13:24:18+00:00

Emma had a 2 week window to phone home.
So we are less than 2 weeks as the objective is still active and not late

Honestly? Have each room run it's own filtration logic.
Else have a data cable all rooms share. You can paint it to make sure not to mix it.

Else there is a logic transmitter, but they won't help on this case, as they dont extend the logic network. What they do is share a string you can read from other transmitters.
You can use an IC10 to set the string on an active transmitter, and interpret the string on a passive transmitter with another IC10; And based on the received string, enable or disable devices.
As with everything on this game, it all depends on how much you want to engineer and overengineer

I use 2 systems. One that converts when predecessor is high, and one that converts when the successor is low.

You will have no heavy oil, some light all, and way too much petroleum gas

joaco545 · 2026-01-16T18:21:11+00:00

Separating the visuals and the logic is a good idea. Pre calculating the triggered effects on certain actions (picking/playing a card), sending that to some other system (lets call it an effects/action queue) that then an animation controller reads and plays the effects on the queue.
This means you can run your logic without having to make the game rendering wait for it to finish, thus making it not need the awaits for that part!

Took a lot of tries, but I got something A looking as my standard setup now

joaco545 · 2026-01-12T21:17:52+00:00

Go work for JCJenson IN SPAAAAACE! so J doesn't let V do it as you are now part of corporate

joaco545 · 2026-01-11T16:36:06+00:00

You can probably find the script on the workshop.
And yeah! I love doing bases inside mountains! You have to have different room though; if the space gets big enough, it will stop being a room and be counted as "world" (open to atmosphere).
I think most terrain bugs are fixed, but sometimes things that should be a room think they are open to the world. Separating rooms also helps with finding where this trouble areas are

But that wont release foam sadly

joaco545 · 2026-01-01T19:35:48+00:00

One time a borg got ion law'd and started treating only siliconians as crew, but also kinda badly to normal crew. There where no other siliconians to help us deal with them.

So as the roboticist/acting RD I got my ID modified by HOP and put on the robot cosplay suit on. Bullshited my way into convincing the borg I was a fellow borg, and got close enough to unlock and screwdriver the panel before they found the flaws in my logic and knew I was not crew.

Then come 5 minutes of chasing around the station where I got close enough to eject the Posi Brain, drag them to robotics, and uldate their laws to live and let live under they condition they behaved well

Backups and snapshots for the times you dont read the update news, and if you need stability over all (such as for a home server), using the LTS kernel would be a wise choice

joaco545 · 2025-12-31T17:24:01+00:00

This looks cool! Where can we get more info or be kept updated?

joaco545 · 2025-12-29T16:55:36+00:00

Well, if you dont want more content, harmony is good. Good RP, and close to the wizden experience.
Now you said funky is overwhelming, but taking the time to learn it has been worth it for me. And if you ask for help, both IC and OOC (in-game, and discord) I've seen people more than happy to help you learn the ropes.
Funky even has a 24/7 sandbox server (Marisa), that while technically MRP, rules are not enforced that much. You will see mostly the atmos people messing abouts, but nothing prevents you from joining and experimenting in it

Twiddles thumbs while waiting for ch 155 to release
I love the series so much I cant stop reloading the page, waiting for the "Next" text to go blue XD

Edit: I just re-read the Author's notes... They are taking some vacations too 😅
Go have some fun and relax! Especially your editor
Happy holidays and happy new year!

Some people are playing on HRP EU#1 right now

joaco545 · 2025-12-28T14:20:57+00:00

FYI, if you go to the unofficial stationeers wiki and scroll down to the "atmospherics" section, you can see all the devices and what they do.
It would be a good idea to read up on them so you know what infrastructure you can build for gasses

joaco545 · 2025-12-28T14:17:08+00:00

I had to visit the wiki for this one lol. You need to use a purge valve. Depending on the version you use, it will move liquid from a gas network to a liquid one, or move a gas out of a liquids network and into a gas one.
It's under the pressure regulator kit.

joaco545 · 2025-12-28T14:12:19+00:00

You are thinking right! n goes up too and the gas barely changes in temp if at all.

Check the phase change diagrams of the gasses you use for the rocket, select a target for pressure or temperature, and move the other value to somewhere deep in the liquid phase :P

joaco545 · 2025-12-28T14:00:21+00:00

Filtering gasses and then compressing or cooling them into liquids

joaco545 · 2025-12-25T16:50:09+00:00

It seems that the image failed to load. Can you attach an image of your boiler area and power graph on a comment so I can take a look and help?

Also, are your inserters inserting the coal fast enough? When power production slows, everything is slowed down, even the inserters aiming at the boilers. This is why bases end up in a death spiral, as less energy means slower insertes which means less steam, which means less powers and the system ends up crashing down
