Title: Space Engineers - This game is never going to be finished
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on November 03, 2013, 02:12:43 pm
What is it?

Space Engineers is a sandbox game about engineering, construction and maintenance of space works. Players build space ships and space stations of various sizes and utilization (civil and military), pilot ships and perform asteroid mining.

Space Engineers utilizes a realistic volumetric-based physics engine: all objects can be assembled, disassembled, damaged and destroyed. The game comes with two game modes: creative and survival.

Volumetric objects are structures composed from block-like modules interlocked in a grid. Volumetric objects behave like real physical objects with mass, inertia and velocity. Individual modules have real volume and storage capacity.

Space Engineers is inspired by reality and by how things work. Think about modern-day NASA technology extrapolated 60 years into the future. Space Engineers strives to follow the laws of physics and doesn't use technologies that wouldn't be feasible in the near future.

Space Engineers concentrates on construction aspects, but can be played as a tactical shooter as well. We expect players to avoid engaging in direct man-to-man combat and instead use their creativity and engineering skills to build war machines and fortifications. Space Engineers shouldn’t be about troops; it should be about the machinery you build.

When you consider that Space Engineers is in Alpha, and the first game of its Devs, I think its great. The devs update it regurarely, and I cant wait for Multiplayer and/or Survival gamemodes, much like Minecraft.

This game has a lot of potential.

I believe they were the same people that made miner wars.

But yea, considering this is just alpha ....

http://forums.keenswh.com/post/update-01-017-010-6745848


patch notes
Features
- multi-player chat added (press Enter to write, another Enter to send)
- heavy armor resistance. In the previous update we added heavy armor, but its resistance when compared to light armor wasn't large enough. This update rebalanced heavy armor strength and now it can sustain a lot more damage (missile explosions, bullet impacts, collisions, warhead explosion). Try it!
- ammo models and icons
- when pasting, CTRL + mouse wheel can be used to move paste position closer/further
- option to disable multiplayer weapons
- ladders have been replaced with passage blocks due to complicated implementation of the climbing in various gravity settings. Now, you can create passages either horizontaly or verticaly and fly or walk through by using your jetpack.

Fixes
- fixed velocity of rotating blocks when split
- rewritten toolbar, now saved with world
- fixed missile collision damaged blocks (sometimes it went through)
- fixed open/close door issue
- fixed cube building gizmo
- fixed pasting active drill
- fixed 3rd person camera rotation

Update 01.017.011

- silver refinement is 4x faster (used in reactor and medical components)
- added support for surround sound systems

Fixes
- fixed small thrust damaging large heavy armor
- fixed sound when exiting world
- fixed landing gear weird sound

Title: Re: Space Engineers- HUGE UPDATE- Conveyor System!!! & MORE
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on April 17, 2014, 10:19:31 pm
Conveyors are now available in Space Engineers! This is the first WIP version and a realistic and more complete version will be added later.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTMJpVH76s8


Features
- conveyor tube - move items from inventory to inventory (IMPORTANT: this is just a first work-in-progress version and a realistic version will be added later)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_X75G_J-_k


Features
- wheels - use them with rotors and artificial mass to build vehicles
- automatic turrets – gatling and interior turrets are now functional. They aim automatically and can destroy meteorites, decoys and anything that is connected to the decoy.

Construction component,
Motor,
Computer,
Reactor component,
Thruster component,
Explosives,
Rifle ammo,
Gatling gun ammo

Title: Re: Space Engineers-Camera block, Workshop tags for mods,Arc Furnace+MORE
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on August 28, 2014, 07:05:12 pm
Update 01.045

Camera block has been added - now you can see what is happening on different locations. Camera rotation and controlling ships through cameras will be added in the coming weeks. Additional workshop tags for mods have been introduced to make the orientation on workshop easier. It is also possible to make better production building mods. Now you can specify what blueprints are available to production building. It's possible to make production chains and production building tiers. As an example there's a new block 'Arc Furnace’, it is specialized building for iron ore refinement. It refines faster than refinery, it's more efficient and cheaper, but cannot refine anything other than iron ore. In addition to these new changes, we have redesigned the easy start 2 map, and rebalanced the cargo ships, adding new space engineers tech to them both. We have also made it possible to create a hostile identity in your world whilst in creative, this will allow people to make maps for others to play through, with the challenge of hostile ships and stations. Finally, render interpolation has been added as well that will make the game experience smoother. It is currently disabled by default since it is not completed 100%, but it can be turned on in video options.

Title: Re: Space Engineers- NEW UPDATE! Sensor block, Flashing lights & more
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on September 04, 2014, 10:31:22 pm
Update 01.046

Summary
The sensor block has been added; you can configure what happens when something enters or leaves from the sensor’s field - the configuration is similar to the button panel. It's also possible to set a filter, so it will trigger events only for small ships, large ships, floating objects or characters. In the future we will add an option to allow filtering based on friend/foe status. Also, flashing options have been added for lights; you can create navigation lights and runways - multiple lights can be synced. Warhead has now timer and also can be detonated remotely through the terminal.

Update 01.053

The second important implementation is bug fixing. As Marek Rosa has already written in his latest blog-post (http://blog.marekrosa.org/2014/10/level-design-stabilization-period_15.html), the game is entering into a stabilization period where the amount of new features will be reduced and the focus will be mainly on bug fixing and stabilization of the things that are already in the game. This doesn’t mean that weekly updates will stop coming or that we are not going to add new features any more. This is just a temporary transition period that will last for a few weeks. There are still many big and important features to be added, but first we want to make sure that the game is free of bugs and in a much more stable state before we start implementing them.

Features
- projector block
- option to use blueprints menu (F10) and save blueprint (Ctrl+B) in survival mode

Projector Guide
Projector block, blueprints in survival mode:
- players can select a blueprint to project in the projector control panel
- projection can be moved around (set horizontal/vertical/forward offset and set yaw/pitch/roll)
- players can see the build progress and statistics for the projected ship/station on the projector control panel
- players are able to use the blueprint's menu (F10) and save blueprints (Ctrl+B) in survival mode
 
Projection:
- only one grid is supported (grids behind rotor are not projected)
- grid size of the blueprint must match the grid size of the projector (you can project large ship and station blueprints only from the large projector block. Small projector block can project only small ship blueprints)
- projection has no physics and it is not triggering sensors
- projection is always attached and aligned to the projector grid and moves with it
 
Welding + Placing:
When starting a ship from scratch, make sure to align the hologram to the projector and start adding blocks that are next to the projector (or to blocks connected to the projector). Blocks that will be valid for construction will be highlighted. You can also check the info panel of the projector for any warnings.
- projected blocks can be placed/welded when projected block is in range of a welder
- only blocks neighboring with existing blocks can be placed
- when the projected block is colliding with anything else, it cannot be placed

Projector orientation:

Title: Re: Space Engineers - Update 01.061 –Netgraph, Bugfixing #8
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on December 18, 2014, 07:36:19 pm
Update 01.061

Summary
Netgraph has been added. This will help players to check their connection status with the server. It can also be used by non-dedicated servers to check the amount of used bandwidth. Another addition that we did is the option to disable block deformation and destruction (in world settings).
 
Warning: Players will experience long loading times when loading a world that was created before update 01.060. This happens only for the first time (save a map and the loading time should be back to normal for that map next time). We already fixed long loading times in cases of creating a new world, but there are still some issues with asteroids and their size - we are working on improving this as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7l5z6XPA2Y

Netgraph Guide (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=357872062)

Features:
- net graph (CTRL+H)
- destructible blocks option in world settings (Enables/disables blocks deformation and destruction for the map. If disabled, no blocks can be damaged or destroyed)
 
Fixes
- fixed ore detector detecting ore when there was none*
- fixed freeze when grinding
- fixed no message when character crosses the limit world
- fixed piston missing in assembler
- fixed crash in Havok constraints (aka random crash)
- fixed crash in render
- fixed HUD overlapping when in ship
- fixed issue when player could not create new large/small ship grid
- fixed issue with arrow keys not working properly with sliders
- fixed issue with sound of working assembler still running when assembler was not working
 
*Warning: in order to see this change you will have to create a new world and save it, also precision of ore detector is still work-in-progress

Title: Re: Space Engineers Update 01.062 Super large worlds, Procedural asteroids and more-
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on December 25, 2014, 08:33:33 pm
Summary
This is the last update for this year so we decided to make it more special. It includes three very important new features: super-large worlds, procedural asteroids and exploration! With super-large worlds we have increased the size of the world to 1,000,000,000 km in diameter; this means that practically there are no boundaries and you can travel as far as you want without experiencing shaky movements and rotations. The “procedural asteroids” feature adds an infinite number of asteroids to the game world - all these asteroids are fully destructible and don’t consume RAM/memory. The exploration feature adds a practically infinite number of ships and stations to the game world, so there will always be something to discover, explore, acquire and conquer.
For more details about the new features, please read Marek's blog post: http://blog.marekrosa.org/2014/12/space-engineers-super-large-worlds_17.html

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZF9Wnyss69k


Features
- super-large worlds – increased the size of the world to 1,000,000,000 km in diameter (equals to 6.6 AU)
- procedural asteroids  - adds an infinite number of asteroids to the game world (dedicated servers settings: value for asteroid field density should be between 0 and 1)
- exploration - adds an infinite number of ships and stations to the game world; discover, explore, acquire and conquer!
 
Fixes
- fixed exploration tag not working
- fixed issue with WriteBinaryFileInLocalStorage
- fixed holes in asteroids when generated too close to the edge of the storage
- fixed interior lights color problem

Title: Re: Space Engineers - Update 01.066: GPS, Text panel, Mod sorting
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on January 22, 2015, 09:27:22 pm
Update 01.066

Summary
GPS has been added in the game. We decided to name it GPS (Global/General/Galactic Positioning System) because it is more understandable by the majority. In terms of physics, it works very similar to the INS (Inertia Navigational System). GPS can be shown on HUD. Players can create, send, receive and manage GPS coordinates in a new screen in the terminal. They can also create coordinates manually by entering X,Y,Z parameters or store their current position as a GPS coordinate. The coordinates can also be copied and pasted into chat. Another new addition is the text panel; it serves as an information panel for players. Players can write information about location, faction, mission, etc., they can edit the text which is shown on the panel and set who can read or edit it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pq-R3WDVbM


Features
- GPS - create, send, receive and manage GPS coordinates in the game
- text panel block
- mod sorting (filtering)

Fixes
- fixed cargo ships not despawning
- fixed API AddPlayerToFaction does not sync
- fixed Entities not InScene create a light source at origin
- fixed some existing button panels get detached
- fixed texture issues on wheel blocks

Title: Re: Space Engineers - Update 1.068 - Damage Effects, Camera Zoom, Shaking tools, API
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on February 05, 2015, 10:38:20 pm
Summary
Blocks now have particle effect when they are damaged either by shooting or drilling. The effect is visible when the damage is below the red line and it differs according to the type of block that is damaged (armor blocks do not have any effects). Also, we implemented camera zoom – by using the mouse wheel while in camera mode. Additionally, tool shaking has been added to world settings (enabled by default for new worlds, disabled in existing worlds). This can enable the shake when grinders or drills are used. This shake is also applied on the object that is being ground.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6qV3TxuC5w

Features
- camera zoom
- damage effect for blocks
- tool shaking (can be enabled via edit settings)
- MOD API added generated documentation (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Tools\Documentation.chm)
- MOD API added interfaces to load and create voxel maps
- MOD API added possibility to start/stop damage effects from scripts
 
Fixes
- fixed collector physics issues
- fixed sensor detecting every ship as enemy
- fixed bug with audio being played during loading screen
- fixed one case of exploding rotors
- fixed wrong mouse position in programmable block
- fixed issue with Storage not saving in programmable block
- fixed voxel hands painting is not visible on other client

Known issue: text panel display is white (we're fixing it)

Title: Re: Space Engineers - Update 01.072: Laser Antenna
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on March 06, 2015, 10:53:14 pm
Summary
Laser antennas have been added. It is a new block that will work as normal antennas do but with a few differences. The first and most important one is that they will not be visible on HUD. The second difference is that if you have a grid and you own a laser antenna on that grid, you cannot control the turret on the same grid if you access it from the control panel but only if you are sitting in the cockpit. The maximum reach of laser antennas is 20 km for the small grid and 40 km for the large grid. Also laser antennas have several states represented by a small dot on them. If the dot is green, the antenna is working, it is on powered grid, but it is not connected to other antenna. If the dot is red, it means that the antenna is damaged or on a grid without energy. If the dot is yellow, the antenna is searching for connection to another antenna. If the dot is blue, there is connection to a friendly antenna established. You can connect to another antenna by generating its GPS and pasting them to another friendly antenna. We also added API support for modding voxels and turrets. Scripts now can be used for modifying asteroids (color them, save them etc.). Also turret range and angles are now moddable as well.

Summary
A new block for sorting items inside the conveyor system has been added. This block gives the option for advanced filtering - black/white-listing of items or whole groups of items of the same kind. The block has to be oriented properly in order to work.

Also, the warhead blast radius and the laser antenna power consumption can now be moddable. The blast radius is limited to 30 which means that one modded warhead cannot be stronger than 30 normal ones.

Title: Re: Space Engineers - Update 1.074: Oxygen!
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on March 19, 2015, 08:23:39 pm
Summary
Oxygen has been added in Space Engineers! This means that now you can take off your character’s helmet, but only inside the medical room. When the character takes off the helmet inside an environment without oxygen, he will receive damage. In addition, you are now able to obtain ice and generate oxygen out of it by using the oxygen generator. This device needs to be connected to an air vent that will emit the oxygen inside the room.

Moreover, we’ve implemented the “drain all” option for the sorter block that will push all items trough the block and the "switch" statement for the programmable block.

[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkTuvF435Jc[/youtube]

Features

Update 1.076

Summary
We have broadened the oxygen options in the game. Now, there can be oxygen inside small ships and cockpits. Additionally, there is an oxygen level on the player’s suit (available only in survival mode and only if enabled in options). The character will have to breathe oxygen in order to survive. If the level drops to 0, he will lose health. Oxygen can be replenished in the medical room or through oxygen bottles, which can be replenished in oxygen tanks or oxygen generators. Lastly, there is a Space Ball that bounces inside the game!!!!

Summary
Players now have the option to choose the Main Cockpit. This cockpit will be used for controlling their ship or station. The other cockpits will only be used for controlling turrets and other blocks, but not for controlling the ship itself. We also added hints for the Button Panels – this will make the use of the button panels more convenient by showing hints before clicking on each button.

Summary
The Oxygen Farm block has been added to the game. It works similarly to the solar panel, but it produces oxygen instead of electricity and doesn't require ice to work. We also added the option to disable encounters in the world. Additionally, the "Save As" option can be now accessed while the player is in the game (on the Main Menu by pressing Esc).

Post by: Dom13WorstNW on April 30, 2015, 09:09:32 pm
Update 01.080

Summary
Cryo chamber has been added. It allows clients/players to save content of their inventory and toolbar settings in multiplayer and dedicated server. The client can enter the cryo chamber and leave the game. When he logs in again, he will spawn inside the cryo chamber instead of the medical room. If the cryo chamber is destroyed, or loses power or oxygen while your character is inside, then he will die.

Moreover, we implemented a new character model and animations, including walking/running, equipping tools, flying with jet-pack, etc. Also, the running speed has become slightly slower.

Warning: The character rig changes will cause old character/animation mods to lose their functionality (because the character bones have changed). Character mods with just a texture change should be fine. Please read this guide to see how you can change your mods so they can be functional with the new system: https://steamcommunity.com//sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=433069217

Title: Re: Space Engineers- Update 01.081 - Upgrade modules, Antenna visibility adjustment
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on May 07, 2015, 09:53:19 pm
Summary
We added three new modules that are compatible with the refinery and the assembler - productivity, effectiveness and power efficiency. The productivity module can make the refinery and the assembler work faster. The effectiveness module is compatible only with the refinery and it increases its efficiency when creating ingots from ore. The power efficiency module, as the name suggests, makes the blocks consume less electricity. The modules should be attached to the refinery or assembler in order to work.

Lastly, we added the option to reduce/increase the visibility of antennas on your HUD through sliders that can adjust the vision distance and can be found on the info tab.

Title: Re: Space Engineers - Update 01.084: DirectX 11, Station rotation
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on May 28, 2015, 10:42:18 pm
Summary
DirectX 11 renderer has been added to the game. It is available as an option in Graphics settings and players can choose between the old DX9 and the new DX11 (the game has to be restarted after that). The main advantages of the DX11 renderer are better game performance and visual look of the models. The renderer is still in early stages of development, so some bugs and visual issues may be present.

The DX11 renderer of the game uses physically based rendering (PBR), which helps to achieve a more realistic look, especially for metallic surfaces. For modders, it means that they will have to create a new set of textures for DX11: albedo, metalness, ambient occlusion, gloss, color change, emissive and alpha masks. For existing models it is possible to use our DX9 to DX11 texture converter, but in the future we recommend making PBR textures first, and then converting them to the last-gen format.
We will be slowly replacing old placeholder models with reworked assets. Five updated blocks are released in this update (Beacon, Gyroscope, Warhead, Projector, Spotlight). Keep in mind that pretty much all models have to be recreated from scratch, and it's a slow process. Therefore it might be a while before the next updated model pack is released.

Additionally, players will now have the option to rotate a static station by switching to rotating mode (via pressing the 'B' button). The station created in the Station rotation mode will not allow blocks separated from it to be merged again.

Features
- DirectX 11 renderer
- station rotation
- reworked models and textures: Beacon, Gyroscope, Warhead, Projector, Spotlight

Fixes
- fixed character shaking during cluster reorder
- fixed setting ragdoll world matrix
- fixed client dying for no apparent reason

Title: Re: Space Engineers - Update 01.090: Jump Drive!
Post by: Dom13WorstNW on July 09, 2015, 07:57:47 pm
Summary
Jump drive has been added to the game. It is a new traveling mechanism that allows players to travel big distances in a short period of time. Only large ships can have a jump drive. The jump drive is a block that needs to be attached to the ship and must be charged with energy up to 100% so the jump can be made. There are two different types of jumps – blind and GPS guided. The blind jump will lead you to the direction that the cockpit is heading and the traveled distance can be set in the control panel (the distance is depended to the mass of the ship and the amount of the powered jump drive blocks that are on the ship). The targeted jump will get you to a specified GPS coordinate. After the jump is done, the energy needed is depleted. To increase jump distances or mass transport capacity, you will have to build more jump drives. Any of the jump drives can be then used as the master drive that will use the other available drives if needed.

Note: Please note that power has been enabled on all ships in starting scenarios in survival mode.

- the jump drive block must be attached to the ship and has to be charged with energy up to 100%
- the jump drive is available only for large ships
- jumps can be done only from the cockpit, by using the "jump" action (not from the control panel)
- if a main cockpit option is set, only the main cockpit can do the jump
- the jump cannot be accelerated from the control panel, but has to be assigned as an action to the cockpit’s toolbar
- the game will automatically calculate if the ship is able to reach the final destination with the current number of jump drives and the ship’s mass, this information is shown as a number of % in the confirmation screen
- In control panel: the jump drive can have a set distance (useful for blind jumps), or can be maximum based on the ships equipment (maximum is set as default)
- the minimum distance for the jump is 5 Km by default
- a jump can be done only to a safe proximity of objects (other ships, stations, asteroids, planets)
- the final destination of the jump must be empty in a 2 Km diameter. Any object in the area will shorten the jump and the ship will appear 2 km before the object
- in case of a shortened jump towards a GPS coordinate or a blind direction, the ship should spawn before an object is in its way - the ship should never spawn in an asteroid or other ship even if the calculations are correct
- Rules of transport: all small ships or large ships that want to travel with the ship must be connected through connectors or landing gears. Players must be seated in seats, cockpits or cryochambers. Everything not attached to the ship as mentioned will stay in the spot and will not do the jump.

Fixes
- fixed placing armor corner 2x1x1 tip with wrong offset
- fixed volume of the hand drill
- fixed issue with clearing blueprint search by using "X"
- fixed issue with gravity generator reporting different values than spherical one
- fixed incorrect tooltip when switching between tabs in terminal
- fixed speed on HUD updating too frequently when sprinting
- fixed rotation hints shaking when copy pasting
- fixed issue with critical energy after turning ship ON
- fixed misspell in XML
- fixed issue with station rotation mode appearing when copy pasting ships
- fixed issue with renaming scripts
- fixed small inconsistency in voice-over
- fixed issue when g-screen opens after re-spawn
- fixed copy & paste issues with large ships
