Cool, thank you :) Glad these tutorials are still helping out. I will one day get back into the game

@@curioinventorium awesome

Wow, I'm surprised the logic in the game still behaves the same way after all this time. I haven't played in a while.

Hi, sorry I have no idea. I haven't played the game in a few years, and I don't know if the logic system has changed since last I played.

@@curioinventorium Oh ok... thanks anyways!

Hi @plauze82, sorry this video was uploaded 2 years ago and the game has changed a fair amount since then. It changed that much that the tutorial videos I was making were being made invalid within the space of a few weeks. (Yes I know its early access, but these where fundamental game behaviour changes) I'm currently waiting for the game to stabilise some more before I jump in and try making videos on it again.

I know how you feel, I'm waiting for the developer to stabilise things after rebuilding their game engine, again. I get that it's early access, but the retcons on tested features that were working before (and which people spent time and effort bug testing) is really getting me down. Hopefully things will improve...

OK, I cant make itt work, idk what I am misising

There have been issues raised on the GitHub issue tracker, I'm not sure what normally solves them.

Thanks for the advice

It's something I've been meaning to experiment with. I built something with only one thruster pointing sideways, yet it allowed me to move sideways in both direction. Like the thruster was pushing and pulling. I kind of see that as a bug rather than the way the game should work. Plus there's no collision checking to see if you've built something over the exhaust port of the thruster, so you could just embed them inside the ship completely. I'm guessing they'll be revised later on :)

@@curioinventorium it's not a bug, that's the way it works

You're welcome, your question actually helped kick me into gear to make this :)

lol, you're the first to write "first" on any of my videos. Hope it's of some use, the update 9 hours ago has altered the placement of the player UI icons in the TAB menu. :/

@@curioinventorium Definitely useful info. Im pretty casual on and off of this game, so it really helps to watch your videos and be up to speed when i get back into it. 👌🏽

They've changed a bit since the last big update. I'm planning on recording a tutorial tonight that covers some of the bigger changes. Hopefully I'll stick to the script I wrote last night.

I was planning on doing a fresh build tutorial this past weekend but got distracted. There's a lot of new stuff I need to cover, especially since some of the logic blocks have changed. My videos I kind of out of date now :(

I also tried to reply to your last message, but the youtube app kept hiding it when I tried to view it.

​@@curioinventorium Thank you so much! Yeah I did delete it since I thought I've figured it out, but I didn't. I'm sorry! I'm looking forward to that video, as your content is good and you know a lot about this game :) I've learned and done so much already just by watching this video!

I've uploaded a tutorial video on ship building ua-cam.com/video/fZdOdLXtKPY/v-deo.html , there's a bit on adding a canopy to a hinge block around 17 minutes. Hopefully it'll help. I'm going to have to find some better video editing software as this took so long to do, another update came out :/

Glad I could be of help. I'm trying to build myself up again to do some more tutorials since the game has had updates recently.

I guess so, it's not gone wrong on me so far and I'm quite happy with it. I've still to do further experiments with it though.

Thank you, when the current set of changes moves from experimental to the stable branch I'll do some more. As there's quite a large change to building techniques and a fair few additions too. It should fuel content updates for a while :)

No idea. How are you building the turret? Is the second axis sitting on the child object of the first axis? Are both axis being linked too by the turret computer? Are you using rotation blocks or hinge blocks? I need a bit more info on how you're building your turret before I can help. Also there's the Discord where you'll be able to get a lot more detailed help than here.

Thank you :) I know what you mean, I'm getting frustrated with when new features are added, but they aren't stabilised before more are added. It just seems like the developer is making more work for themselves. Hopefully they'll improve as I'm still enjoying building in this game.

Thank you! I'll make more once it's a bit more stable and the current experimental branch rolls over to stable.

There's going to be a big overhaul of the build engine soon, so once that has settled into place I'll look to doing some more videos. I do cover text input screens in my video: Introduction to using Logic Blocks. I think I briefly show monitors. Monitors are a bit hit and miss at the moment the easiest way to figure them out is to use the link tool to connect various things to them. Like linking a shield generator to a monitor will display stats and shield strength.

It's still early access and is only creative at the moment. I haven't looked at the roadmap for this game but some of the mechanics in the game like ships having upgrade slots seem to hint at more. I'm primarily drawn to this game for the creative mode side of things and haven't looked for any other features :)

Previous videos I had done a few trial runs, but this one I just ran with it :) The building itself was only created for the video, so that could count towards prep :D

I'd like to try that one eventually

Thank you, glad I brought someone else to the game. Hopefully it remains stable though, the experimental branch is going through a few changes :/

Sure, I'll upload a bit later once I've woken up proper

Here's the link to it on Steam steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2415212195

Thanks you very much for that. Playing tropico 6 today as Ive got a bit creativity burnt out with my maquis raider. But its got a decending docking bay with cargo bay doors that your method looks perfect for.

No worries, thank you for kicking my arse into gear to get this done. :)

That's just me moving round as I design, I've got one of those 3D mice. It's one of those things you don't notice you do until you watch the video back. If I was recording a tutorial I'd be a lot calmer with my camera movements ;)

Sorry for lack of Starship EVO, hopefully I'll have one done in the future. My enthusiasm fizzles out whenever I encounter a bug in the game. Especially the relocation of ring-worlds upon logging back into the game after an update, except for all the buildings and spaceships. It makes it awkward to plan recordings and design stuff. But hey, that's early access for you.

@@curioinventorium Indeed moving the ring was something of an odd call on the part of the developer, especially for current games. No reason it couldn't just apply from the point of a new save game. Sometimes enthusiasm can only be reborn by inspiration. Maybe get yourself watching some sci-fi films that have an interesting mechanism you'd like to recreate? But you get yourself back when good and ready; don't let the fact that my number one Starship Evo troubleshooter inst about factor into it at all.

lol, thanks for the peer pressure :D I did have someone ask me about doing mechanised pilot chairs, which I'd like to extend to single-access points for vehicles. You know, overly complicated door opening and chair folding out mechanisms :) It be similar to the landing gear vids

Well that would be fantastic bit of ABBA circuitry needed there. Took me ages on my peregrine fighter get an appropritially timed pilot seat that rotates and moves on rails while raising the an appropriate height on a piston. What you're describing reminds me of captain scarlet's car

I'd forgotten about those. The big armoured things

You should be able to manage it using an ABBA style logic system, similar to the system I use in the landing gear example videos. I haven't been in the game for a little while, I'm still waiting for it to stabilise a bit more. But your question certainly inspires me to try :)

Thank you, glad my videos help! I really need to get round to making some more at some point

I can't remember if you can bind things to the WASD keys using hotkey blocks. Also Nav lights are supposed to just be on and/or blinking. A person from a distance can see which way you're going by seeing which colour is visible.

Sorry for not replying sooner, UA-cam doesn't seem to notify me that comments have been made :/ I thought the tug was uploaded to the workshop.

I imagine it'll have those things added in time :)

I think someone has tried and it doesn't work. It was raised as an issue on the Github for this game. The work around was to use maglocks on the bigger ship, to lock in place the hover vehicle once you've parked on the bigger ship.

@@curioinventorium I tried it and you're right, it doesn't work. You don't get the option to target/interact with other objects when in a hover vehicle like you do in a spaceship. Hopefully it's a feature that will get added eventually.

You're welcome, glad it was helpful!

lol, sorry. I usually edit out my off-script ramblings as I get distracted easily :)

Thank you for the feedback; I suppose a fault of mine is that I rely on people having watched my (or others) previous videos on logic, or have played the game a little while. I suppose I should put a disclaimer on whether the video is a 'starter', 'intermediate' or 'advanced' tutorial video. I have done a video where I explain what each logic block does and somewhat feel that if I do the same level of explanation in each video, things will soon get bogged down in detail and what will start off as a 15 minute runtime will balloon to a 40 minute runtime. Also, sorry for the delay in replying. UA-cam seems to stop notifying me after a while that someone has commented on my video.

@@curioinventorium no problem, dont get me wrong i genuinely enjoy your vids, but please a little slow down would be the thing, you dont have to do a 'ballooning break down' of every block, just speak slowly and clearly. Otherwise i really like your content, thank you for addressing my comment. Stevo remains an AWESOME game for us both

be great if he just showed us how to connect it all rather than skimming over it having been already connected. Im getting frustrated trying to follow this. all I want is a flashing light ><

I guess it all depends on the ship they're used on. There is some sort of mass to the ships, and they will wobble about if they land on uneven terrain. I will have to think of some more at some point.

Lol, it was one of those moments where I'd forgotten where I was. Time Bandits, yeah. Years ago, I'll have to watch it again sometime.

Thank you :) I'm going to have to try making a fresh tutorial, as I found out by accident that you can daisy-chain rotator blocks while making this video. I don't know how many versions back this was possible. It could free up some logic blocks.
