Actually emergency rations is a very inefficient way of getting food. You're using 8 plots to produce a rations pack that provides 500 food. Another much more efficient option would be to make ratatouille. Two plots (1 blue pepper and 1 spice) are all that's needed and it provides 212 food.

your system specs would be good to know. But usualy and especially at the first start of the game you need just have to wait some more time and don't click or alt-tab.

Hello Preston,

actually it's quite simple and all you have to do is:
1. Close EAH
2. grab the Config folder of your old EAH
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Empyrion - Dedicated Server\EmpyrionAdminHelper\Config

3. and paste it to the new and correct path
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Empyrion - Dedicated Server\DedicatedServer\EmpyrionAdminHelper\Config
4. Start EAH

Hi Galactic Survivalists,

We just released Alpha 9.4.1 from the A9 branch with important bug fixes that cannot wait until the next major A10 release. Moreover, we changed the folder structure of the Client and the Dedicated Server in the Steam install directory to prepare the upcoming Unity 2018.3 game engine upgrade.

The new folder structure is as follows:

Empyrion Client:
|----- Client
|----- DedicatedServer (for local Coop)
|----- SolarSystemGenerator

Empyrion - Dedicated Server:
|----- DedicatedServer
|----- PlayfieldServer

Important:
- You need to adapt your firewall settings to take into account the new .exe files - otherwise the servers will not show up in the server list
- EmpyrionAdminHelper (EAH) tool has been moved into DedicatedServer folder


After updating to A9.4.1, please make sure to "Verify Integrity of Game Files" via Steam Client before you start the game.

For bug ... Read more

Update: February 15, 2019 (Build 2281)


Hi Galactic Survivalists,

Based on your feedback, we improved the Voxel calculation for mass and hitpoins of building blocks: while mass and hitpoints are still correlated to the size of the building block (ie shapes with more Voxels have higher mass/hitpoints), we adapted the formula that maps the Voxel count on mass/hitpoints.

Now, the smallest shape has the same mass/HP as in A9.3. From the mass/HP of the smallest shape, we interpolate to the max mass/HP of the largest shape (= full cube). Before, we interpolated from basically zero mass/HP to the max mass/HP of the largest shape, which resulted in overall lower mass/HP for all structures. Now, the mass/HP of an average structure should be roughly the same as in A9.3.

Here is a graphical illustration:

Die Blueprints werden nicht auf dem Server gespeichert sondern bei Dir lokal auf dem Computer, dazu muss Du wie TH3_W0R5T_0N3 beschrieben hat die ersten 3 Schritte seiner Anleitung ausführen um Deine eigenen Schiffe als Blueprint abzuspeichern.

Hallo, schade zu hören das Du Probleme hast. Check mal Deine Festplatte ob diese genug Platz frei hat. Der Flaschenhals dürfte aber bei Deiner bald 10 Jahre alten Grafikkarte zu suchen sein.
Die beiden Spiele die Du als Vergleich anführst sind leider keine Referenz. Das eine hat als empfohlene Anforderungen dual core und windows XP , das andere Spiel ist zwar neuer aber auch hier keine Referenz. Empyrion ist in Entwicklung (Im Gegensatz zu Deiner Referenz welche fertig releaste Spiele sind und somit auch schon optimiert.

Hast Du versucht die Grafikeinstellungen auf FAST zu stellen ?
