there are two different devices, one is the detector, this will help to find direction to deposits not revealed on the map yet (you will see red lines in the radar when near uncovered deposit 1000m max). then there is the ore scanner wich will paint blue outline to the hud when your over a deposit while wearing a drill. bot devices only need to be in the inventory not in the quickbar.
For the ore scanner this will only work with higher tier ore but not with iron copper silicium
since those need no detection once found stay on top of the deposit and just dig down until you reach the voxel dep... Read more

I've started 4 new games over the past couple of months, the latest was today (version 8.01 I think). In each of the games, I find my first promethium deposit and try to mine it, and all I find is crushed stone. I end up with a huge empty cavern with the text saying there's still 100% promethium left in the vein. I tried other deposits (they are difficult to find, so only a couple per game world) but they all result in 0 ore.

The other minerals (iron, copper, silicon) seem to work fine.

I deleted the cache directory in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Empyrion - Galactic Survival\Saves\Games

I searched the forums and don't see any mention of this.

Whazzup?

Devs are aware of this now.
You should still be able to play fine after clicking on continue though.

UPDATE:


Fixed thnx god

Anyone gonna make a walkthrough of this scenerio mode ?
-It is very hard to navigate through planets with very low amounts of pentaxid.
-Mission instructions are not clear.
-Enemies are too many and unforgiving, its a bit fun but these goddamn shotgun zirax troopers are 1 shotting from 100 meters is not fun.
-Especially the find Danos portal mission is very unclear. Theres like 3 planets and 3 moons the fully explore to find portal.And every time you go into a portal you just have to start all over again a base, a small vessel, a capital vessel pentaxid to warp other 4 planets and moons weapons and ammunition.
-Its like a massive grind spree.
-thats all i can think of now plz help devs and fellow survivors.

For any docking issues a save game with the vessels that have the issue will be needed in a bug report here:
https://empyriononline.com/threads/bug-reports-alpha-7-5.34598/

...they can just turn off the requirement of having a BA/CV with 7.3 ;-)

current mechanic is a bit picky the landing gear of your vessel need to correct touch the surface while spawning, some ships are not spawnable, devs are looking in to the issue

Afaik you cannot add signal logic to a group. Signal logic needs to be added to each device in any group or anything ungrouped individually.

What you can do for groups though to switch anything on & off that is in a group by only using the control panel is create a switch in the Main tab of the control panel in the Custom column which is 1 to the right of the General column.

Name a switch under 'Custom' & then go to the group in the device list & click on the group to highlight it then a drop down option will be available.
Click on the drop down & select the Custom switch you just named & go back to the main tab of the control panel & now use the switch you just created.

This works for myself. Hope it helps.

Can I invite a Steam friend into my singleplayer game now? Or do you still need to make a dedicated mp game?

Yes. But you have to quit and save your singleplayer game and load it up as coop wich is quite easy to do now, then you can right click your friend and invite him to your game.

to do so :

save & quit your current singleplayer game
resume game
choose your previously saved singleplayer game
click the small arrow on load game - 'local coop' should appear
click 'local coop'
a windows popup appears - allow it (yes)
wait until everything is loaded up and you have joined your game
now... Read more

But being able to have the option to LAN a game where it's retricted to my network only so I can play on multiple coputers isn't an unresondable thing to ask. much like couch co-op game that we play it would be nice to play some sertain games, like this, on thier own PC.

No idea why the snarky comments for absolutely no purpose.

I suggest to just ignore the "funny" comments :)
About the issue not beeing able to play the game with one copy on more than one computer at the same time i can't say much since everything is said in this t... Read more

No we do not have a tether system.

Originally posted by Kraudi: If I have a dedicated running. Can I switch to local coop and use our save?

quite unsure about this since i never tryed, theoretical you can just copy over the save from your dedi saves folder to the clients save folder and load this up, but since i never tryed this i suggest backup everything and try - but on your own risk .
anyway since your dedicated is running (well?) why changing - never change a winning horse or so :)

Correct technicaly is nearly like a dedicated server but you don't have to care about portforwarding and configuring complicated .yaml files you can start it just by click coop instead of start in the game menus.

Yes it's may a bit confusing since steam definition of local coop means same game same screen same computer,
But our "local" coop is indeed a methode to just start a game in coop mode so other players can join your game via lan or internet ip.

edit::

and no coop is not pve only if you travel for exampel to ningues wich is a pvp playfield by
default you can fight each other

Da ich die Finger von den Playfield,yamls lasse kann ich Dir dabei nicht grossartig helfen, aber mir wurde gesagt wenn man unter

..\Steam\steamapps\common\Empyrion - Dedicated Server\Content\Scenarios\Default Multiplayer\Playfields

die Playfield.yaml in den entsprechenden unterornder zu den planeten berarbeitet man


- Key: RegenAfter
Value: 720

diese zwei zeilen bei den jeweiligen POI's rauslöschen muss bevor man den server neu aufsetzt, Das schaltet aber dann das regenerieren des jeweiligen POI's aus.

falls Du daran herumexperimentieren willst empfehle ich auf alle faelle eine komplette sicherung deiner installation zu machen

gruss und viel erfolg

Wenn ihr auf einem Server spielt gelten nun andere Regeln für POI's wie in Einzelspieler, das hängt mit dem Regenerationsfeature zusamen das es nicht erlaubt POI's die vom Admin oder per default auf regenerieren gestellt sind zu übernehmen,

ofc it's not supposed to be toothless :)

Nope not yet as far as i know, there are some turrets wich are working, but cv's are not supposed to be planetary weapons, use a good sv instead and your cv as the heavy carrier wich it is.
