Your post is still up?

It is in the support/bugs section. You posted this in the general section. The forum post will only show in the section it was posted in, not the ones above it

So you are banning people for the truth now?

Comment
    Rocket on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
Only forty permanent bans have been issued on this forum. Which is quite a small number considering the quantity of posts.

The the reference ban was provided without a ban reason; which is against our own internal instructions so I reversed it. Bans are a last resort and require their ban reason to be genuine, and provided at the time of the ban.

As such, I reversed the ban.

Nitrolizer & Dedicated Server Fixes lay the groundwork for atmospheric changes

Post
    Rocket on Steam - Thread - Direct
As we head towards the atmospheric changes that we discussed previously there is new content we want that lays the groundwork. This week is an example of that. The Nitrolizer extends the ability to get nitrogen oxide, which you can be used to make even hotter fires.



We've also continued to work very closely with the community, both here in steam and on discord, to identify and fix serious issues both with the base game and particularly with dedicated servers. As always you will see these efforts continue front and center with each of our updates. Please do reach out to us via these channels. While we are not always able to get issues fixed immediately, we can always use your experiences to frame out how to fix them in future.

"Registering Prefabs" - game does not start

Not beta.

Verify completed, does not help.
No mods.

Being offline does not help.
Being online does not help.

[EDIT[
Reinstal from fresh does not help. Not removing files on hard drive, to do not loose saved games.

It looks like an edge case where discord's API is causing an exception because it is open but not logged in. I'll fix for next update. For now, try running the game with discord logged in or not running. Sorry about that!

Multiplayer issues after patch

Comment
    Rocket on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
Yes because some changes for clients listening on multiple network adapters were rolled back till we could test more, as it was breaking things for many.

Now the game will use the network adapter issued by the OS for the client, which will be your default one. You can change the priority of the adapter in network settings.

Another option get the local ip issued by the hamachi adapter. Then go into the game setting.xml file, change (or add) a new field called LocalIpAdress which is that IP. You only need to do this for the clients. This will force the clients to connect via the hamachi network

Solar Panels damaged by storm while indoors

There is an edge case that if the atmosphere inside is very similar to the atmosphere outside, it will be considered a storm currently. So to solve this, pump the atmosphere out of the room and it should work fine until we can solve the issue.

[IMPORTANT] Temporary connectivity problem for those with multiple network adapters

Post
    Rocket on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
Clients joining a game where they have multiple valid "network adapters" (gateways to the internet), will not be able to properly connect. This could happen because you have an internet VPN active and your network connection active, or your wifi and ethernet etc...

I am working on a fix for this but our build servers are down for maintenance and I need to test it thoroughly. In the meantime, check the following for connection issues:
* use the localIpAddress setting in setting.xml to tell the game which adapter to use; OR
* disable the other network adapters to connect

I will be fixing this as soon as possible.

Please share with others who aren't on the forums.

Playing with Fire | New fire mechanics, Multiplayer Fixes, and more

Post
    Rocket on Steam - Thread - Direct
This week we have begun revisiting not just core systems but gameplay ones. Fire is the first of the gameplay systems we have revisited, as we see it as one of the central systems that Stationeers have to master. Additionally, we've been working very hard to provide some key fixes. We also have also been working on with some new art for future updates, working towards exciting things like nuclear reactors, satellites, and more.



Dragging Items no longer destroys suits
Throughout most of the development dragging items has been dangerous, often resulting in a buggy experience that resulted in destruction of suits, development of leaks, even damaging the player severely. With the refactor this had become even worse, to the point where dragging crates or containers was almost impossible without risking catastrophic damage.

How to use DLC?

Everyone has the DLC content.

Make sure you run the game with steam turned on, currently the game only shows the DLC if steam is running (and valid) when the game starts.

In prep for the new Fire metrics...

O2 toxicity will be a longterm problem, rather than shortterm, for the player. We will test out and discuss the mechanics here and on discord, through a beta while coming up with a system.

CO2 toxicity is a lot easier to outline as there is some great research on the topic. We will likely mix this in with partial pressure calculations, but the rough estimate remains the same.

Concentrations of more than 10% carbon dioxide may cause convulsions, coma, and death. CO2 levels of more than 30% act rapidly leading to loss of consciousness in seconds.

Cosmetic packs

Comment
    Rocket on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
Many people on the discord expressed wanting to support the project.

Previously, discussions with the community both here and on discord requested we focus additional purchases purely on cosmetics - leaving game features and content to be included for everyone.

We have released three new worlds (and another on the way) for free.

You can also easily edit the game files if you would like to access the content. I will be adding a setting in the settings file for people to change if they would like the content, but don't want to pay for it.

Nitrogen Ice, Optimizations & Tutorial Improvements

Post
    Rocket on Steam - Thread - Direct
The pace of our development has been able to substantially ramp up. The refactor work to redo much of the games foundations is now paying huge rewards in terms of our ability to iterate and produce content and fixes. Additionally, the new team members we added over time are now operating at full capacity with a much more robust codebase.



Through the week and the weekend we worked with the community on discord to continue to hit off some of the more problematic bugfixes, introduce a few community requests (such as exposing more logic variables), and fix bugs. A huge thank you, as always, to our amazing community for this hard work.

Just asking...

We had a sale a few days ago, and there was some very rough and troublesome bugs with the tutorials.

Note that recent reviews are only from the very recent period. Additionally, they've gone from 63 to 67% today alone.

I think the reviews dipped down because of legitimate issues with the tutorials. If you buy the game, regardless if it is on sale, the tutorials should work and it they do not people will be very turned off the project. And so people were naturally unhappy with their purchase.

We have fixed some of these issues and will continue to do so. Naturally, over time, the reviews will continue to increase.

Apologies for the trouble. Could you email me a link to download the contents of that save folder? I'm unable to replicate the issue locally, but if you could zip up the folder and put it on google drive or something, I can download and track down the issue.

Bugfixes & Stability

Post
    Rocket on Steam - Thread - Direct
After a massive increase in players (thank you!) it highlighted that we needed to do some more work, particularly on fixing issues with the tutorials. While we knew we wanted to upgrade them to be better, we didn't realize they struggled quite so much with the changes we made in the refactor. Additionally while fixing some bugs and making optimizations, we inadvertently made more bugs.
In the future we will be implementing phase changes for gases and liquids, please start updating your bases so that you don't have frozen water in your pipes, as a future update will cause them to break and turn into ice
