Empyrion - Galactic Survival

[Sn00ks]

I know how to do this, but to do it cleanly needs access to the server.

I did find a "fully operational space station" out there.

We may have to go and investigate it.

[Sparko]

Might I suggest that the spaceships are re-located to a safer location? :g:

Definitely need to do this...

Also an update has been released today

Hi Galactic Survivalists,

We have just released our final round of bug fixes before the next major update of Empyrion.

Changelog: Alpha 3.4.2 (Build 620)

Bug Fixes:
- Fixed: Tags of Bases, POI and Vessels do not vanish if Core is destroyed (structures with 0 blocks will now be removed completely and also their tags on map)
- Fixed: Duplicate exploit in MP related to containers when opening and closing very fast
- Fixed: Black screen problem with blood overlay/damage effect
- Fixed: Drone Base still spawns drones even if Alien Core destroyed
- Fixed: Resuming a game sometimes shows "congrats you have disabled the drone base, there will be no more drone attacks" message
- Fixed: Survival Constructor Item on all planets and orbits visible
- Fixed: Turrets on some bases (e.g. drone base Xenu P1 on Masperon) shooting through terrain in SP and MP
- Fixed: Vessels sometimes flip over when landed on a planet with thrusters still activated
- Fixed: Capital vessels lose steering ability sometimes (CV sometimes suddenly turn extremely slow when using mouse. They sometimes don't even react to using the arrow keys anymore. This can only be resolved by hitting Q/E and dragging the mouse simultaneously.)
- Fixed: HV issues: Shift-Space will get HV stuck in any material ceiling - if you accidentally or on purpose use the Shift-Space jump of a HV in a room with a ceiling that is too low, you will get stuck/glued to the blocks (either steel or terrain)
- Fixed: HV: Boost-Jump still available when Hover Engine removed
- Fixed: Console Spam with error message: "Attempting to update a disabled Reflection Probe. Action will be ignored."
- Fixed: Bottom of randomly placed POIs may have negative y coordinate, therefore teleporting player back to surface when accessing lower levels of POI
- Fixed: Drone bases sometimes spawn below / in a lake
- Fixed: Ships that were built into up direction, getting incorrectly teleported up
- Fixed: Jetpack Exploit: Permanent fly around on planet like a SV (MP/SP)
- Fixed: “SubjectKilled” does not trigger in SP
- Fixed: Mission “No Man on the moon” does not trigger / wrong check
- Fixed: Wrong Asset: Pyramid crystals on Aitis regrow as straight crystals

Changes / Improvements:
- Offline protection shield is now impermeable from both sides
- Player drone can now be spawned when flashlight is equipped
- Pressing horizontal alignment button "O" in space now allows alignment with default space plane
- Alien Humanoid Insect (Akua) is now in Predator faction

Please can the server be updated when someone gets chance

[Liberator]

Those are a lot of the issues we have actually noticed whilst playing, the Alien Humanoid Insect set off my CV mini-guns and rocket launchers when I have those set to not attack predators or factions.

Oldies SV was a victim of the "shooting through landscape" bug.

So just need the server updating please.

[SithAfrikaan]

God I'm glad to see that bug list!

[Liberator]

God I'm glad to see that bug list!

Still missing the "keeping sync with all players in area and no time travelling"

[Penfold]

Oldie is still on vacation so unless Whitey can handle this it'll need to wait until the weekend.

[Whitey]

I just noticed this as I don't always read all the threads on the forum.  Can you please post requests for server work in the appropriate thread in the GL section and then I will know about them.  I'll have a look at doing the update tomorrow.

Will do, thanks Whitey

We like to make you come out and play with us in the main forums occasionally, we get concerned you aren't getting enough sunlight.

[Whitey]

But the sunlight burns!

That's it updated and restarted.

Swearing alert, whilst looking for a jpeg idolizing Whitey's awesomeness, I came across this:

Not appropriate for work or other sensitive environments.

Server updated

Changelog: Alpha 3.4.2 (Build 623)

Bug Fixes:
- Fixed: Severe server lags (opening containers, interacting with devices etc) on busy playfields

[Sparko]

Guys, whats happening with this? are we resetting things? would love to be able to do missions again with everyone. seems to have gone a bit stagnant

[Liberator]

Not forgotten, just make sure for the time being that your ship is safely on or in orbit around Akua when you log out.

The process is very manual at the moment and because we have visited everything in our area it will be quite messy to clean up.
