Back to Lydia’s Golden Treasury

by | May 17, 2022 | ,

I overshot with that afternoon nap, but I did figure out a couple of things for making the ‘throughline’ of Lydia’s Golden Treasury stronger. Chapter 3’s also going to need a few specific edits to fall more in line with a few things I noticed in Chapter 1, mainly, some very specific things that were said and some others things that weren’t said in that first chapter.

Trust me, it’s important, especially for Chapter 3.

For now I need to focus on getting Chapter 2 written up so I can get that gap I made plugged back up. I don’t know if I’ll have it finished by the end of this month, but I’ve definitely got enough time, so that’s what I’m aiming for.

Es Ist Verboten!

Most of today was spent finishing up the Cosmo Messer’s interior layout and getting its specs written up for the workshop. Still on track to have that done this week.

As much as I hate to say it, I’m FORBIDDEN from making any design changes between now and release. Typos in the documentation and the like can be fixed, but any functional deficiencies in the current E model are going to be ‘known flaws’ or something to that effect.

As for what I was doing the rest of the time. Mainly just trying to stay alive. It’s still ridiculously hot and stuffy around my workspace and it’s only going to get worse until around September.

As for Lydia’s Golden Treasury, that’s still my focus for the rest of the week. Updates on that will come when they come.

Space Engineers: Unlimited Tweaks

by | May 15, 2022 | ,

The Cosmo Messer’s a real pain to try to ‘finish.’

So here we are, right where I was afraid things would wind up if I committed to optimizing the interior.

It looks a lot bigger on the inside than on the outside doesn’t it?

Half of the interior’s already been taken out in this picture but I’m going to redo all of the piping, battery, gyro, and thruster placements to try to get the most out of the space that’s in here. Hopefully it’ll be enough.

Unfortunately this means I’m going to have to scrap the RAH fighters since they’re about to be horribly out of date, but that’s a problem for when it’s time to decide how to present the Hipper.

Getting Back to Work

by | May 14, 2022 | , , ,

I’m in about the same place I was Thursday (playing whack-a-mole with minor headaches and hoping the nausea doesn’t come back), but I should at least be able to get some work done here and there. For now I’m prioritizing The Cosmo Messer and Lydia’s Golden Treasury, so that’s the goal for pretty much all of next week.

Woe to me for I must now hard commit to figuring out the dos and don’ts of workshop uploads.

Actually, a profound wave of sadness hit me today as I came across some information that made me realize just how bad a certain situation in the world is getting. It’s not easy to keep pressing forward knowing just how volatile things are right now, especially when virtually everyone is dead wrong about the reasons behind it. That’s all I’ll say about that, though.

M.A.S.S. Builder: Tuning the Interface for Multiplayer

M.A.S.S. Builder – WIP: Tuning Interface for Multiplayer – Steam News
Another short update for another week, but before that, we’d like to mention that Multiplayer mode development is still going on and we’re unsure of when it will be completed, but we’re trying our best to make it happen as soon as possible.

This is looking nice, though it would be cool if the game’s HUD in general had an adjustable tint instead of the usual gray. It’s still got that Beta look to it.

As for the different nodes for PvE and PvP, I still approve. That’s probably a better way to keep things orderly, if not strictly balanced. It might take me some getting used to though. I only do PvP in games like GBO2 and WoWs and the stats aren’t separated like this.

I don’t know exactly when they’re going to release 0.9.0 but it’s going to be a huge event for the community. I’m going to have to have a few things ready to go by then so I can start doing more than just forwarding and commenting on these weekly updates.

Soon, etc.

Not Quite Yet

by | May 12, 2022 | ,

I’m almost in the clear, I think. Today it’s just nausea and that ever resurgent headache. Still, there’s naught else to add here since naught else is going on. This week is just an all around bust and I’m going to have to find a way to make up for it next week.

That’s assuming I’m better by then. I should be, but let’s wait and see.

With that, I’m taking another weekend.

What Day is it?

by | May 11, 2022 | ,

It’s just one of those days. I’ve been awake for a grand total of thirty minutes, I’ve got a headache, and I have to keep doublechecking what day it is.

Still, that’s better than yesterday. Maybe tomorrow I”ll be in good enough shape to get back to work.
