Starbound (interplanetary terraria)

Had some interesting conversations on a friend's server and we rolled into a tangent about space PvP a la Faster Than Light. I about creamed. If they can do something like that I would be content.

Also really need to lock spaceship doors for "Friends" that beam up in order to reduce the inevitable griefing that would occur.

Don't you have to be in a party with a person to beam up to their ship? Don't invite people to your party that you know will be dicks.

That's why I put friends in quotes. Some friends just want to watch the world burn.

A friend of mine from Steam helped contribute to making this video, it turned out fairly awesome so I wanted to post it here. It's kinda amazing considering what all you can do in this game.

It's amazing what you can do with the instruments:


Now if I only knew the first thing about music...

[Kelenae]

They made wood no longer be turned into ship fuel. I like this change... now to wait tell they fix weapons again (with another wipe) Because 4 shotting the UFO boss with the iron bow a bit OP

[Corrderio]

Hopefully it fixes mob difficulty. I heard mobs are extremely easy to kill now.

Changelog for v. Frustrated Koala 10/12/2013
Hi guys, so last night we pushed the major balance update. We'd tested it for hours and at the last minute a bug crept in that broke crafted weapon damage, making them crazy overpowered.
Hence the name of this version.
That's been fixed. It was an interesting bug. The old leveling system used a "level" specified in each swords configuration file. The new system no longer uses "level", instead each sword is hand balanced. The bug that crept in at the last moment reenabled "level". Given that they are now unused, levels weren't changed from their previous values that went all the way up to level 100, and now that the game is leveled up to 10, they were massively too powerful.
Also..
Uranium, plutonium and solarium now work as fuels
You can now REALLY craft a grappling hook
Boss balance has been tightened even more
Platinum armor is now unlocked on tier 5
You can now 'recapture' pets
some more fixes
More coming really soon!

remade my Mudkip char, wound up on a Magic mushroom planet with all of 8 tree's on it but tons of gold silver and iron kinda of a weird trade off

The music in this game is the best.

found a sweet legendary sword on a threat lvl 10 planet with like 2.2k dps

[Jakson]

Is there a way to mark my chests, or indicate what's in one without going through and opening one? I'm thinking how you could put signs next to chests in MC - just to keep the massive number of things in this game organized.

patch tomorrow

the patch broke the BG server, they fucked with the config files and now its not binding properly and crashes. Im going to be checking up on it regularly to figure out whats going on and get it going

[Corrderio]

2 questions:

1. Does threat level still affect how hard enemies are on the selected planet? If so is there any way to tell if I'm ready for them or is it just trial/error?
2. Killed the UFO and upgraded my metalworking station, so anything to look for in the Beta sector?

threat level is a general indication of strength, there are still easy/normal/hard planets and you can't tell which is which from your ship

UPDATE:

I think I fixed it, please try to connect now, same ip/pw
