just tested and it's running fine. make sure you update your install to beta and use the last modpack from here on top of it:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/tvs5zyv4lmv9pxg/data.zip?dl=0

(Unzip and copy the data folder on top of the avorion data folder under steam usually c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\Avorion or thereabouts)

i hope they will have official servers at some point, or i porably wont do any multiplayer, but building spaceships is cool so take my money whatever.

I downloaded the demo from the Avorion homepage. Guess I'm gonna install it via Steam then. Thanks.

Well, I already said that I couldn't reach the server ;) I was trying it with the demo, so the demo is not updated enough apparently.
(Yes, I "installed" your modpack ;))

Gonna get it on Steam today probably. Not quite sure yet though.

I just got the game on Steam and tried to join (having it set to beta and with the modpack), but apparently the server is not up-to-date anymore ;) (it's running on 0.10.4 and the current beta is 0.10.5)

damn. i mostly love this game, but them quests. such bad.
the game did a reaaaaly bad job in explaining me what i had to do - even that i had to do anything realy. only when i finally realized i could not progress further in the game and googled what was going on and that i had to do quests to remove that barrier. no i learned that i am supposed to find some sattelites in a specific distance to the center (with i only can tell with a mod) - but after jumping on yellow blips for a few hours now without any sattelites im about to give up.


edit:
found a solution. not to do the quest, i think thats fubared right now. but as it is a common problem someone found a solution:
/run Player(callingPlayer):getInventory():add(SystemUpgradeTemplate("data/scripts/systems/teleporterkey7.lua", Rarity(RarityType.Legendary), Seed(124)))

pasted into the chat will spawn the key. sure, its cheating, but then, this quest was about to kill the game for me.


anoter edit:
quest to get key 8 seems also broken: i tried 3 different smugglers now and abandoned and repicked the quest multiple times each, it each and every time wanted me to deliver some shit to coordinates behind that barrier. well, one cheat fits all i guess, but still i feel that this game was much more fun without the quests.

got the server finally updated to 10.5.x


modpack here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/m0vjwtfa3xsnpry/data.zip?dl=1

it goes to overwrite the avorion data folder, which is usually there:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Avorion

-snip-

I believe there are at least 3 quests that are completely reliant on RNG. And those are required to do before getting to the center..it's really annoying and disappointing. I've spent maybe 4h trying to bump into two of these events, so in the end I got pissed off and edited the game scripts to make it more definitive.
The right way to go about it, IMO, is to make those events come to you after a certain amount of time, after stepping in on their area. This way you will bump into them naturally, before you are forced to google things. The first RNG quest I accidentally bumped into it, and the other RNG quests are well spread so you aren't really forced to google/read code to understand what's going on or to find it.


I think I'll wait once it's a bit more developed, then multiplayer will become really fun. Are people building an economy in our dorfy server yet?

It honestly feels like a lot of their problems came from the fact that their entire team was composed of cats, and the people who were supposed to be herding them were also cats.

idk the others, I'm still looking around to find a place to settle.

one thing that always do is the factories needed to build turrets, so there will at least be that, but a fair warning the economy aspect of the game is completely hollow.
