Cheerio 2,675 Posted August 24, 2018 Gantry takes more metal and longer to build. Rocket selection is now seperate from destination selection on the star map. Rockets can be launched directly from the rocket list in the star map. Fixed a crash that could occur when rockets landed. Fixed a crash that could occur when clicking on the star map. Fixed a crash that could occur when inspecting disease on a tile. Rocket fuel tanks need to be full for a rocket to take off. Fixed move tool negative sound. Move tool no longer cancels itself if you click on an unreachable location. Fixed DTUs in building descriptions not showing the correct value. Transfer arms should work once again. Creatures should no longer drown themselves. Fix a case where dupes would get stuck at tube launchers. Fixed some issues with dupes not delivering/sweeping.

zzKratoszz 122 Posted August 24, 2018 Very exciting update. 1 question though. "Rocket fuel tanks need to be full for a rocket to take off." What if we only need half the tank and want to save some weight? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grimgaw 523 Posted August 24, 2018 (edited) @Cheerio Seeing as moos require Chlorine, and Chlorine geyser isn't guaranteed, could you guy change map gen to make sure there's always one on the map? Edited August 24, 2018 by Grimgaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably because the game now correctly identifies piles of material so both compactors, sweepers arms etc actually work now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mayveena 29 Posted August 24, 2018 Experimental updates aren’t for existing save games. If you want to use an existing save game and keep your game stable, wait for the patch to be live. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buildings for gas bottling and emptying building -> available I guess only the changed world gen, the fossils for more lime. Rest should be there, but current beta is very unstable, if you thinking about making a rocket, get ready for tons of game crashing. I just made one in debug mode and game crashed after rocket took off and meteors hit something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blash365 592 Posted August 24, 2018 Actually i am more interested in incorporating the gas storages into my current base. Fossils are only for lime, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WanderingKid 493 Posted August 24, 2018 (edited) I don't have a fresh build to rancher yet, so a question. Does this mean drowning tanks for Dreckos and hatches no longer works? I've got a hatch in 350kg water that I would have expected to start turning itself into meat. Nevermind, throw them in deep water and they still drown.

Yea its for lime production, if you don't cook oil you are safe to run old base. Old save, dock don't see checkpoint or something. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
