It's "dwarf", uncapitalized.

Unfortunately, it's down again. While I had someone's rusty girders. An awkward situation to be sure.

[March]

lol, great damn crashes during megaprojects.

It was upset that it could no longer send birds after me while building a sand pillar into the sky.

[March]

Probably, but on a different note, I've spent some time and got some more materials, if and when the server comes back I'll keep building the best I can.

[March]

Well some news, things above the planets like asteroids right outside the atmosphere are static like terrain features, and the tiny arid planet at -8 -11 A sector with the large asteroid chunk above the two tunnels and avian village, will always be there. So I've now claimed it as March's moon.

[ank]

How do you make a helmet allowing you to breathe on moons and asteroid fields?

It turns out my netbook is too slow to run Starbound's map gen fast enough for no lag. Sadness!

I'm surprised a netbook can run starbound in the first place, one of those tiny cramped minilaptops never did much for me.

Anyway, server should be up in a few minutes unless starbound updates (or has a fit).

I hoped it would be at least fast enough to run the server, but alas!

I'm thinking of picking the game up as soon as I can get money in the bank and I was wondering, does it require a particularly majestic machine to play? I mean, I can play Terraria on medium-highish settings with no problem, but this game appears to be a bit more graphically intensive.

[Aklyon]

Well, I have an integrated graphics and 4gb ram, I can run the server fine. It panics if I want to load both parts at once, but after its loaded both sides work without usually crashing.

Thats not a netbook if it can run 1920x1080p
The best I've seen on a netbook was 1024x800, and it had one of those tiny cramped physical keyboards builtin to it with ubuntu netbook remix.

Those were the old netbooks, a-la EeePC and such. Now it's all UMPCs and convertibles like my Samsung. A tablet PC is, by all counts, less of a PC than a netbook, since it only has the same case that houses its screen for all of its hardware. And yet modern tablet PCs outshine UMPCs in some regards, especially with keyboard docks.

Starbound pushes my comp about as hard as T does (And I run T with everything that can be turned off, turned off. Starbound doesn't have turn off buttons yet, mostly), maybe a little more, but not notably. T's actually (was, anyway, before the latest patches) worse with some of the more intensive mods or with the wrong lighting. I posted my specs a few pages back. SB's just... not a very heavy game, relatively, and presumably will become even lighter as optimization and whatnot gets put it (though that may be a while, yet.).
