Early Access version 119

[Baron]

Ok this is crossing the line right now.

Why would we waste shitton of keys for fuel and explore the galaxy recklessly just to find an uncommon planet?

Edit: Frozen wastelands are more rare than infernos even.

[InterAction_studios]

@QuackQuack

the other projectiles will be counted as “inaccurate”?

Yes. This recent change made it ‘worse’ in that respect:

@InterAction_studios

All projectiles now ignore already-killed enemies in their collision checks (allows instant-hit weapons like Laser and Riddler, and to a lesser extent fast-moving ones like Boron and Hypergun, to ‘penetrate’ through enemies)

@QuackQuack

I meant I can receive daily stipend whenever I log in, after 14.00.00 in my timezone (seems to be 07.00.00 UMT).

Oops, that’s a bug. It seems I’m subtracting the timezone when I should really be adding it (so instead by correcting by -7 to get to midnight, I instead calculate midnight as 7+7=14)

Fixed in v.120 Bug

@QuackQuack

how is my local timezone determined

I use your Windows time (what you see at the bottom-right of your desktop)

@QuackQuack

I guess you’re trying to align the objects like this (red lines)?

Yes, but that’s not what I mean. If I move the bars away from the text above them, then they will move closer to the text below them. So this can be misinterpreted as being associated with the text below.

@4-FX

Can you add a quest that is for completing all the missions in 1 planet

I don’t organize missions this way, so I’d have to do a lot of work behind the scenes for something that isn’t really that unique as a goal.

@Baron

I have seen some, probably a glitch

Very unlikely.

@Baron

I remind you again with this poll.

You don’t need to remind me about polls that clearly show that I should not make a change.

@Baron

people can use special weapons to trigger this penalty a lot of times

So you’re wasting keys in order to advance faster? That’s a reasonable trade-off. You’re just making life difficult for you anyway, time flown is one of the easiest goals – you just accumulate it through normal play.

@QuackQuack

when I sort by difficulty, only the initial difficulties are taken into account

Changed in v.120 Idea

@QuackQuack

if 2 missions have exactly the same difficulties

No two missions have exactly the same difficulty. The difficulty you see is rounded.

@Razorcif

I’ve had 3 Microguns attached, I was firing on the boss, he dies, but I keep firing and 2 microguns run out and the other one keeps firing but no audio is played

Expected; won’t fix. Each sound can only be played a maximum of X simultaneous times (2 in the case of microguns). So the first two microguns have sound, the 3rd one actually doesn’t. You need to stop/restart firing for the sound channels to be re-allocated.

@4-FX

Also, is this a bug?

Visible yellow ghost trail

You’ve placed the yellow ghost trail below the gray one, which hides it completely. When you’re editing the yellow ghost trail, however, it’s automatically raised above everything else, so you can see it.

Change the order of the hardpoints if you want to always see it.

@Starbrockle

First, the landmark quest below is way too quick to complete at this quest rank. Shouldn’t that quest be much longer to complete?

Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth The randomizer picked ‘Suns’ as the landmark, which are much more common. It could have just as easily picked ‘Space Burgers’, which would have been significantly harder.

@Starbrockle

Second, isn’t the medal quest below a bit too long to complete?

I don’t know, is it? If you fly 4-stage Invasions, it’s 44 missions.

@QuackQuack

Do all hot / frozen / massive / none environment affect us the same

Yes

@QuackQuack

Should there be?

That would probably too subtle to be noticeable.

@QuackQuack

if the bonus “max power” and “overpowered” still available at FP 20 and FP 30

There is no bonus at FP 20. It was renamed and moved to FP 30.

@GoldenUndrowler

There’s a problem that Chillers can attack by the snowball even they are outside the screen

Fixed in v.120 Bug

@Amiko

This player has CHL Costume but no CHL

It was applied back when it was free to everyone, and the player hasn’t updated the paintjob since.

[Baron]

@InterAction_studios

You don’t need to remind me about polls that clearly show that I should not make a change.

Not make a change? The people who agreed with it is way higher than the people who disagreed with, “I don’t care” is just the neutral option.

@Baron

Ok this is crossing the line right now.

Why would we waste shitton of keys for fuel and explore the galaxy recklessly just to find an uncommon planet?

Edit: Frozen wastelands are more rare than infernos even.

Also check this.

@Baron

1- In Saucer Attack, Festers always appear from either right or left side of the screen depending on the randomizer, But it’s bigger Variation, Mars Attack, Fester appears from both sides, is it intended?, If it is then why not making saucer attack act like it?, just like the Shoot and Scoot/Loot.

2- Why does it look that we travel faster in Grand Prix more than other waves where we go in the right/left direction? just go choose a wave that travels like grand prix and differentiate between the travlling speed of both, you will find a difference.

and this too

[neonep]

@Baron

Ok this is crossing the line right now.

Wait I don’t remember doing that, did the quest change?

[Baron]

Yes, by applying 119.7 server side thing.

[neonep]

Oh, bit unfortunate for you then

[Mzdziungwa]

small visual idea (possibly impossible to implement)
when we land in the sun, can our spaceship be slightly illuminated by it depending on the color of the sun?

[InterAction_studios]

@Amiko

This might be display problem, because in compare screen doesn’t show up that costume

The paintjob was automatically removed (in a previous update, don’t remember which one), but the galaxy avatars are only updated when the paintjob changes by the player themselves.

@Alex_Titor

In darkness missions projectiles from Giant Robotic Space Crab V 2.0 should be seen all the time

Can’t change that – half the projectiles in the game are light-emitting.

@Baron

But it’s bigger Variation, Mars Attack, Fester appears from both sides, is it intended

Yes, that’s what makes it a variation.

@Baron

Why does it look that we travel faster in Grand Prix

Because it’s a Grand Prix.

@Francis

changed all quest achievements and I got stuck until I finished a random mission, possibly triggering the check (after doing that I advanced)

Hmm, yes, that’s unavoidable. Workaround: play any extra mission (as you have discovered yourself).

@Baron

Why would we waste shitton of keys for fuel and explore the galaxy recklessly just to find an uncommon planet

Hmm… granted. Changed in v.119.8 (server-side) Idea

@Baron

The people who agreed with it is way higher than the people who disagreed with

It doesn’t change the fact that overall only 40% are in favour of this change.

@Mzdziungwa

when we land in the sun, can our spaceship be slightly illuminated by it depending on the color of the sun

Not worth it.

@Baron

Also check this.

@Baron

and this too

Can you ease up on these reminders? You posted these less than 2 hours ago. You should wait at least 24 hours, preferrably more.

[ScarletCuboids]

119.11 when

[Baron]

@InterAction_studios

Can you ease up on these reminders? You posted these less than 2 hours ago. You should wait at least 24 hours, preferrably more.

Does it really require to be left for later?

[VerMishelb]

The second one was already answered twice by two different people. The first one — yes. You’re encouraged to explore the universe in every possible way.

[QuackQuack]

@InterAction_studios

Changed in v.120 Idea

Isn’t it a bug then? Because the missions were sorted by difficulties incorrectly.

@InterAction_studios

There is no bonus at FP 20. It was renamed and moved to FP 30.

But why? It was presented in all previous episodes (since the default spacecraft was M404, which has max power at FP 20), I feel empty that it doesn’t appear now. I knew the problem that only Mullers have true max power at FP 20. Can’t you just keep it or at least rename it to something not misleading instead of removing it?

Damn, the previous one was 550 Medals of Anhilation and 5 Fortune Teller. Now I lost my progress (almost done the medal one and 3/5 Fortune Teller) and they got replaced with new worse quests. I don’t know what to feel right now.

[Baron]

@VerMishelb

You’re encouraged to explore the universe in every possible way.

But it’s supposed to be less costly, right now I am wasting hundreds of keys for thousands of fuel to discover this worthless planets, that doesn’t make sense and crosses the line.

[OneWingLunarian]

“crosses the line” is an exaggeration

and quit abusing the term to make things seem more unreasonable than they really are. at least you dont have to wait 2 weeks just to merely get a chance to chip away at the task

[Razorcif]

Who else has their quest like this xD ?

[thai2910]

@InterAction_studios

Hmm… granted. Changed in v.119.8 (server-side) Idea

and i have to wait for the quest change once again

[Baron]

@OneWingLunarian

and quit abusing the term to make things seem more unreasonable than they really are

Because they sound more unreasonable than they really are. getting bankrupted just for discovering a dumb planet only? bullshit.

@OneWingLunarian

dont have to wait 2 weeks just to merely get a chance to chip away at the task

Be glad that it got changed.

[OneWingLunarian]

@Baron

getting bankrupted just for discovering a dumb planet only?

And what’s this compared to being forced to wait with no way to progress?

I suggested to remove the galactic cup task because its a literal roadblock.
Having to waste keys to find a planet on the other hand, is a matter of whether can you be bothered to grind keys for it. There’s nothing unfair.

There’s a stark contrast between:
Hard to Progress
and
Impossible to Progress until the game lets you

@Baron

Be glad that it got changed.

if my earlier response to the change wasnt enough to prove this

@Baron

bullshit.

you sure like to swear a lot in public now dont you
not that theres anything wrong but dial it back a bit

[RainbowBoyVN]

In my opinion, Galactic Cup medal should rename as “Galactic Champion”

[InterAction_studios]

There’s a problem with 119.7. The quests should not have been changed. Working on a fix.

v.119.8 will become available within the next hour or so.
