Stationeers Dev Tracker

Ice will sublimate in a vaccum, as it gets heated due to solar radiation, if it is in direct sunlight.

Yep - there is a dedicated server for either linux or windows.

A guide is available: https://github.com/rocket2guns/StationeersDedicatedServerGuide

Note that it has recently been updated with entirely new netcode. Much better than before, but many guides will be outdated and based on the old system.

There is a setting for "pause when empty".

Note players need to be in an oxygenated (and CO2 scrubbed) sleeper to keep living.

Note that in the factorio multiplayer instructions[wiki.factorio.com] that if you do not play through steam, you don't get access to the steam SDK provided peer-to-peer or nat traversal features.

It is extremely expensive to support both the full steamSDK and maintain steam agnostic support. For most of Factorio's development, this was not supported. However, factorio is one of the best selling games on steam.

It is unfortunately not standard to provide this one click service, as there is no way to do it without fully integrating the steamSDK. This works if you are okay making your game entirely dependent on steam, or writing two completely different systems to handle those with steam and those without.

Originally posted by Gatekeeper019: Why do I need to do all of this to simply play a feature on the game? Game already refunded.

Using steam's inbuilt peer-to-peer has issues, and it also requires us to require the SteamSDK for all users. We have removed the requirement for this, making the game completely DRM free. This allows all users to play the game together, whether their copy is pirated, copied from someone else, or via steam or anywhere else. This means the game will survive even if our studio goes under, or steam stops operating etc...

Because of how security and routers work, unless customers "allow" an application through a firewall and router - the game is not visible. This is an important aspect of modern in... Read more

Thats for reporting - we will get this fixed as soon as we can. Sorry about that!

You can build a "sleeper" that will suspend metabolic functions (hunger, thirst, etc...) while someone is inside it.

However, the sleeper will not provide oxygen; which a suspended body will still require. You can connect a passive vent up to the input of the sleeper to simply mix with the atmosphere of the room, or setup an active scrubbing system.

Note that suspended bodies will still produce carbon dioxide and heat, so you will need to deal with that.

Good luck!

Can you confirm if UPnP is enabled in config for the host, and on the router for the host? If not using Upnp, you will need to make sure the ports are forwarded. Additionally, check firewall settings.

(Other thoughts - EA game nearing 5yrs with major bug issues (per reviews) that go unfixed due to old net code that hobbles the games).

Note the game was *completely* revamped less than a month ago. The netcode was entirely replaced. If you read reports here, it works extremely well.

A good comparison video by a content creator is below.

There was some bugs, we just released a hotfix - double check you are on latest version.

Also though I *have* noticed weirdness in other games with the changes to steam cloud - so keep us posted!

Sure, there are appearance differences but if you think there's no change to game play you are sorely mistaken.

This was my fault, sadly. Many in the community had said they would love us to add "extra" content, as for some people they play the game for thousands of hours and wanted to give a little more to the project.

We came up with "cosmetic skins", but when i saw the skins... I felt uncomfortable with them not being different (human entities in game have organs etc...).

So I dedicated a weekend, in my own time, to add "new" stuff. I tried to keep it balanced, but it ended up being quite a change! So yes, it was intended to be cosmetic - but it just felt weird to have robots with organs.

If anyone has any suggestions, please do let me know.

• Fixed saves not loading when there is a bad backup or autosave

We have another fix coming shortly as well, we are just testing it.

Note steam sometimes doesn't update quickly, check version is v0.2.3407.16727. If not, restart steam.

Working on fixes for these. A fix for part of this will appear on beta shortly

Working on fixes for some of these bugs, sorry

Are you able to view this link?

http://40.82.200.175:8081/list

That will show you the list in JSON format, that your game is using. If you can let me know if you can't see that link, it may be a domain/region issue.

Additionally as a workaround, you can go through the list and connect directly via IP.

We have now fixed this, will be deploying a new build shortly.

Will have a look at it, probanly related to smoothing (or lack of) network update for client positions.

Just to confirm are you seeing this when playing in single player or as a client on server? If on server, dedicated or as a client on a host?

P2P was a steam only function. We have stripped all DRM bound features from the game, so steam only functionality is no longer available

For UPnP to work, you need to enable it on your router. If You don’t want to use UPnP, you need to forward the ports used (default port is 27016)

Check you aren’t loading the original save rather than an auto save? The auto save definitely should have your base correct

This very much sounds like something is burning. Burning will consume oxygen at a great rate, and produce pollution. Some things have a quite low combustion rate
