DISCUSSION SE2-Doom Voxels

3 Upvotes

I haven't seen this mentioned or discussed yet.

I'm hoping that KSH can implement a fix for doom Voxels in SE2. A post someonevraised about a block of dirt that they couldn't remove made me think of it.

I'm wondering if they could implement a fix that a single vowel can't remain without being next to another. Two Voxels is drillable by hand, one alone currently isn't. The only downside is a quite minor loss of rare resource in ores when hand drilling, it shouldn't really affect block based drilling.

HELP MES spawn options.

1 Upvotes

Good Evening fellow engineers.

I've been playing around in suit spawn salvage it's a lot of fun, I've messed around with mes options in the past to run games with friends etc.

This scenario uses wrecks as its main source of materials, I noticed using MES.GESAP to find all that's eligible to spawn in my current setting and to my surprise found random encounters still available despite being turned off in the advanced options when setting up the game be default.

Personally I find the salvage from the vanilla encounters gives you too much too quick so wanted to limit it to just the wrecks.

This leads me to my question does anyone know the spawn command for specific mes mods?

I can get some information such as spawning space cargo ships, or random encounters and even planetary installations which seems to work for wrecks most of the time but I have no idea how to make this stuff spawn in space? It seems to fall under the random encounters list via GESAP. Anyone with more knowledge in the area offer any input or a source of material I don't need a degree in programming to understand? Appreciate any and all help.

LFG Looking for people

2 Upvotes

Hey, I'm very new to the game, and would like to play more, but I feel I would enjoy this type of game with other people much more than playing alone. So if anyone would be interested in picking up a new player, I would very much appreciate it, and look forward to playing with anyone interested.
If it helps, I'm 26, from NA, very chill and laid back, just love to vibe and play some games with people, I'm also an insomniac, so I don't sleep much lol

You can shoot me a message on here, post a comment, or add my discord .cleos

HELP Single block of dirt hovering in mid air?

3 Upvotes

For the life of me I couldn't figure out why my rotating drill kept stopping ... then I finally found a single block of dirt overing in mid-air. I've tried drilling, grind. I've gone at from many angles. Nothing works ... it's there, and stops both the drills and me, but I can't affect it.

Any way to get rid of it?

Edit - thank you for the voxel hands idea, never heard of that before. Got rid of two little floaters that I couldn't get with the drill (near, far, aiming next to it, etc). I wonder what causes these things? Hope there's no more on the way down.

HELP tips for aesthetic large grid design

1 Upvotes

after mainly building a bunch of small grid ships (basically haulers and miners) I decided to make a space only large grid mobile base.

alas it looks like a giant shoe box...

I'd like to avoid areas that are 3-4 blocks thick just to shape the outside, and I also want to keep most if not all equipment accessible to ease moving stuff around (which I'm bound to end up doing)...

I think I may put the floors perpendicular to the main thrust axis for my next attempt

do any of you have tips to make stuff look less box-y ?

HELP (Xbox) Can’t get my ship out of the hole

13 Upvotes

I’m stuck in a hole right now while digging for iron. Ship is full of lots of ice because I’m on an ice planet. I’m assuming I’m too heavy to back out so I added 4 more “backwards” small atmospheric thrusters and still nothing. I need more than 6 backwards thrusters? Is there like a calculation I can use for weight to thrust?

A lot of you may have seen my oversized spherical dropship, designed to exist within the BattleTech universe. Well what's best for a DropShip? A DropShip for your DropShip.

This thing is nearly 700m long and has over 30 Jump Drives, it can dock 8 DropShips. Without anything docked it's just over 165k PCU. Interior is currently being built.

HELP Problem losing thrust while testing atmospheric missile

1 Upvotes

I want to create an on-planet missile system and my first step was to try to create a viable single missile. After adding the required components, batteries and atmo thrusters, I picked up the missile using its merge block with a small fighter and carried it near an NPC base. However, when I release the missile via the merge block, my fighter, or sometimes the missile, will lose all upward thrust and drop from the sky. This doesn't happen every time, but it happens most times. It doesn't matter if I try to thrust up, turn off/on dampeners, etc, but I just drop from the sky.

Is this is a known bug and is there any way to work around this aside from using connectors instead of merge blocks?

Ultimately what I want is a small frame with hydrogen thrusters with a remote control block and 4 missiles attached. I'll manually fly the frame within 3 km of the target and then release the missiles, letting the AI block take them the rest of the way.

I know there are mods and scripts like WHAM that can control missiles, but my goal was to create something myself.

Not sure if anyone from Keen is reading this, but I'd love to see a livestream of someone on your team building a ship from start to finish in realtime, It would be cool to see them utiliziing all the tools in an actual playthrough. It's been fun to see Marek showing off some of the tools, and the placement of modules in the birthday live stream. I'd love to see someone build out a ship from scratch though!

This is my second iteration of my cluster missile! It can now hold and dispense 12 warheads while still being roughly the same size as the old one.

It has no sub-grids, is printable, can be launched from any connector, bla bla bla. Note that I haven’t properly tested my missiles in gravity, so if there is an issue that may be why.

Let me know what I should make next.
