So, my housemate decided to start up his private Starbound server again and I've found a nice pretty forest world in Beta to make a home in C:

Spoiler: Here, I took some screenies: (click to show/hide)

Beautiful house!

My metro and public library project is waiting to be finished on Tylui's server but I haven't been able to connect all day. : (

Hopefully it'll be working soon. I got me some BIG IDEAS, friends. ; D

[Vorthon]

I should probably upload some pics of my moonbunker once it's done-ish. Because fuck yeah underground living. :u

[BigD145]

Is there air?

[Darkmere]

Apparently I'm patching. No notes yet that I can find, either on the chucklefish site or reddit.

[Vorthon]

Is there air?

Yeah. Turns out that if you dig deep enough on moon-biome worlds, there's air. Sometimes even water.

[Sappho]

I'm updating now too. Gonna take ages with my stupid connection. Maybe that's why multiplayer wasn't working earlier...

I hope we won't need to update all the mods. : /

[SharpKris]

any idea where they post their patch notes?

[SilverSynch]

Apparently I'm patching. No notes yet that I can find, either on the chucklefish site or reddit.

Steam actually tried to do that while I was doing some asset modding (and item hacking). I now have Starbound on "ask me before updating".

[Darkmere]

I hope we won't need to update all the mods. : /

Depending on what they changed, odds are pretty good you can go into your ./starbound/mods folder, open up each mod's .modinfo file, and replace the version name with whatever <adjective> koala this patch turns out to be, and at least some will work.

No guarantees on which ones, though.

[Aklyon]

You mean <anger synonym adjective>?

[Sergius]

Enraged Koala.

This update will allow us to add new biomes and make changes to worlds without the possibility of the player losing their world. There will likely be one more world wipe sometime in the future when we finalize the universe layout. This won’t include a character/ship wipe, though, and you can still back up your worlds.

A ton of work has gone into our patching system. After this update, we’ll be able to push content updates as and when they’re completed, rather than waiting for big engine updates to be completed. Updates after this patch will come at a near daily rate.
Additional goodies:

• Valentine’s Day items including swords, costumes, decorations, bow, etc
• Engine feature, tech can now be granted by armors
• Keybinding reconfiguration, minus the UI (you can reconfigure keys through a config file)
• Server stability fixes for servers with many players
• New death animations
• Engine feature, all objects are now scriptable and interactive
• More Avian weaponry
• Projectile changes
• Dogs can now be captured (lots more pets coming soon)
• A bunch of new items and smaller pieces of content
• New (actually sounds good!) microphone instrument with sounds provided by Smooth McGroove!

[Vorthon]

That last note. It is full of the yes.

[Darkmere]

Ah, so exactly the ones they put out a couple days ago.

The "tech from armor" and "every object is scriptable" ones are great, but


Smooth McGroove mic. That wins the patch.

[Sirus]

That last note. It is full of the yes.

Oh so very full of the yes.
