@TrainingKourse You can do as many mining jobs as you want, even endlessly. The mining job area is instanced, so there's no limit to how many players can be mining at the same time π
@r4be_ Yes, pretty sureπThe level of detail (or LOD) on stations helps with the performance. LODs render completely when the player gets closer to them so an entire station won't be fully rendered at any given time. It also helps that stations don't orbit.
@jackmerritt60 The sun is its own separate thing and moves separately from the skybox. The skybox also moves, everything else is stationary, which is what gives you the impression that the planets are rotating π
@Kruzil Valkyrie got a bit unlucky, it was a powerhouse in earlier tests but we didn't get footage with proper settings from those unfortunately :) Should do a rematch at some point!
@Kruzil @Frozenbyte @starbase They're walking during the first 5-6 seconds of the video, the rest seems to be sprinting. Running isn't the fastest method of getting around - turning off mag boots and floating or investing in a Vasama to fly inside stations is definitely faster.
@Kruzil Glad to hear you enjoyed them! π Some anomalies with the shadows/rendering in general will likely remain until late EA, but the most noticeable issues get a higher priority. So it's on the fix list but can't promise it'll be perfect before CA/EA.
@PVallum The starting area of the game is very large and currently contains 1 gas planet, several moons and an asteroid ring, which is about 2000 km in radius. Getting to the moons takes days π Eventually the game area will expand to entire galaxies, but this is the start.
@Kruzil Shouldn't be any features that have been entirely scrapped, but many have gotten improvements/been changed from the state they were first shown in. For example the mining cycle has gone through changes and will likely continue doing so through Alpha and EA.
@__The_Wrench__ Not sure if you can use the Steam music player directly on your phone, but you can download the album on your harddrive after purchase and transfer the files on your phone.
@Wonziu Hi Maciej, the alpha is still limited to a small number of people, but we have a survey which you can fill out here which will increase your chances of being selected in some of the next waves: https://starbasegame.com/alpha-signup
@Solearo You can fill our new Alpha sign-up form: https://starbasegame.com/alpha-signup

@JmanDD Closed Alpha is still limited to a small number of testers, but we have a sign-up form here that you can fill, which increases your chances of being selected in some of the next waves: https://starbasegame.com/alpha-signup
@BartZArific Sorry, currently the only way to sign-up as a potential tester is to fill out our Alpha sign-up form: https://starbasegame.com/alpha-signup
It's not a guarantee that you'll get an invitation, but we save all answers with for future testing waves in mind.
@Lowkee1g One-time payment only, no subscriptions planned! There might be some cosmetics for players to purchase further down the line, but that's not coming to the game anytime soon.
@UngeWang Yes, both are planned π Trading between players isn't implemented yet but coming later, and the game's economy is already partially player-based - we're making adjustments to it based on player feedback.
