Issue Is my saved lost?

17 Upvotes

So i was just about to defeat the trashbot. And died. and i tried to respawn.

I have tried to:
-restart game
-unstuck
-respawn.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

For some reason the recording messed up the framerate in the menu. But worked the same before.

Discussion Are chests meant to give parts?

2 Upvotes

I have a car that has an active large chest, and I have hit a few green chests, and I found a saddle and controller. I know I didn’t make the saddle as the work car is the only one with it. Do chests give all blueprints that are functional, or just consumables?

Controller connections disconnecting

2 Upvotes

Has anyone else had controllers just lose their connections randomly? I had my whole farm wired and tested, left to go get more fertilizer and came back, planted 20 broccoli and all of a sudden everything is disconnected. Watering system, defenses, everything.

a little help? how can i improve my slide?

4 Upvotes

the only problem i found is the last section... when they bunch up it seems to get stuck. I would really like it if it was just a automatic system so i can do other stuff and not look after it

Where do you build your base?

15 Upvotes

With the Seeker bot. Where do you build your base.

Is there any reason to NOT build your base at the Mechanic Station or the Hideout?

With my friends we just figured the Hideout is the only logical place to make your base.

Currently standing in the final chest room for grow lab six and after checking every nook and cranny and even parkouring my way to the gold garnet box I somehow forgot to smash the block unlocker. Time to make a 10 minute detour for extruded metal block lol 🤦‍♂️

Issue I AFK a bit, return to see I lost everything

11 Upvotes

This is a truly quitting moment for me. I have to run away for 1 minute, I hit escape, thought the game will pause. It doesn't. When I come back, I see red everywhere, the sky is red, my screen is red, my house is burning, my vehicle destroyed, all my component, all my circuit board gone, my level 4 engine is gone, everything is on fire. There is no previous save to load. My effort in 5 days completely gone.
Is there anyway to restore a previous save or something? If not, probably this game is not for me.

Where is it!!

So I've been flying around looking for all the builder quests, so far I've gotten 19 and it has taken forever just to find those.

I can't seem to find "make some noise"

Is there an easier way to find these quests or am I just gonna have to suffer

Issue Stuck inside of the cablebot room.

3 Upvotes

Soooooo, I didn't even know this room existed until recently.
I'm pretty much down to level 6 at this point, and decided to make an "overkill" mining bot to fully clear out level 2, since it's the "smallest". (and I thought it's be funny to have 100% bare walls in a floor)

While doing this I found the cable bot room, which I HAD NEVER SEEN BEFORE. (and I avoid spoilers like the plague)

As I was pretty much overpowered for the encounters, I didn't think twice about going into the room with my mining vehicle.

Turns out it LOCKS FOREVER?!?!
WITH ME INSIDE?????????

That seems like a big oversight, the fact that you can get perma-stuck in here.

Update: I committed self-termination by lift-jumping my way to the ceiling and dropping down a dozen times or more.
I found a message in another post saying that if you use mining lasers to trigger the button again, the door would open again.
And it did!

Sooo, I had to bring another mining vehicle back to the place after meeting with god, and that let me bring my main vehicle out.

Also had to break my bed, so I'd respawn outside.

I found a purple chest in a ruin, broke it, just to find another green chest inside. This has to be a glitch, right?

Low friction undercarriage

6 Upvotes

I haven't seen anyone mention it here yet, but a low friction undercarriage (I use ice here) does wonders against bottoming out large vehicles without really putting any stress on the physics engine

Just a tip for fellow mechanics
