You can build everything out of blocks & building parts: motherships, spaceships, space & planetary stations, and facilities such as mining robots & solar panels.Įach planet features a voxel-based terrain. Food and oxygen are rare – be well prepared. Each planet is different with its own challenges. I would've been better off working on the ceiling, though, but I'm getting ahead of myself.An absolute free-roaming experience awaits you: fly across space, land on planets and walk around. I even marked off the area where the Sidewinder was going to be built. It took quite a bit of iron, but eventually it was finished. More importantly, SE also leaves a crater behind when it happens.Īfter that was resolved, I started working on getting the hanger floor completed. I can't think of a single instance where a collision actually damaged my ship in EGS. This is one of the areas that I think Space Engineers does a superior job, vs Empyrion: Galactic Survival.
Limping into the hanger for repairs was fun. I took most of the damage to the landing gear, but the brief tumble also damaged my retro-thruster. I actually managed to use the more powerful lift thrusters to slow down while getting enough altitude to miss my wind farm, but I still plowed into the hillside. I go a bit careless, though, and let my speed get too high. Since there was quite a bit, I decided to use the dragonfly. What happened is that I jetpacked over to my starting base to retrieve the ice I left there. But given how many transition blocks there are in this game, I'm just being greedy. I still don't like the fact that there's no good corner transition block for right here. This surprisingly took most of the day, thanks to how fiddly the work turned out to be. I also redid the completely cosmetic heating vents. The new canopy design is, IMO, the closest to the "real" thing yet. I saw one nighttime predatory animal start out near my bedroom window in one game, and when I woke up it was halfway across the clearing, near a rock.įirst thing I did was add the missing top layer to the ship, including moving the cockpit canopy. The base still uses power, constructors do their work, crops grow, and the NPCs are still active. Unlike many survival games I've played where going to bed basically moves the sun so it's morning, EGS actually speeds up time.
Not only does it save a lot of energy throughout the night, but a lot of micro-managing by me. More Refactoring!įirst, I have to say that putting my base into "Sleep Mode" when my character is asleep in her bedroom has been a real boon. Not necessarily in that order.Īnd now, Round 12 of Empyrion Galactic Survival: Sidewinder Edition. Restoring the nose of the Sidewinder to its former glory, fleshing out the top of the Sidewinder, and giving some TLC and QOL improvements to my main base. And finally, I widened the entrance to the temporary workshop in my base, so I wouldn't have to do as many repairs.Ĭoming up next in SE 2? Even more digging!īut first, coming up on EGS:SE. I did some minor repairs to the Termite, because sometimes I get a little careless in narrow spaces. I "hid" most of the components I didn't care about, on both the Termite and the base, to make it easier to find the components I did care about. I added a second gyro to the Termite, because I was tired of how sluggish it was while turning. Since I was more confident about maintaining the Termite's power levels, I added a temporary storage bin at the back of the basic refinery for stone, allowing me to quickly unload the Termite. Moar Power for the win!!!Īlong the way, I made other tweaks here and there. and the Termite didn't dip dangerously short on power this whole session. I'd say that roughly 80% of this base was constructed from materials collected in-situ.
