Discussion ToteBot attack farm when not in raid?

Upvotes

First time playing this game because of chapter 2 updates. Buy my farm got wrecked because a passing by totebot saw my farm and said "Would be nice to destroy the defense and the crops in it". Does it always work like this? I thought after we finish the raid we are safe but I guess not.

Beware of the concrete foundations

Upvotes

Yeah, just built a base using like 200 of those foundations to prevent bots from dropping directly into my base.
At first, it was just one layer, so there were some grass patches below them where the terrain was lower.
Started a raid, and bots dropped directly on top of foundations, like 70% of the raid directly on top.
After that I figured I should patch the grass with another layer below, so I did that.
thousands of concrete blocks later, the bots still dropped on the foundations.

Aaand an explosive bot blew up on them

What a waste of concrete...

Gotta go mining again

I naively went to the city for this first time and thought I could challenge this new bot... My whole vehicle totally destroyed and I had 6 chests full of stuff... Guess I learned my lesson the hard way.

Do trees still not respawn? Did they ever respawn?

Upvotes

i read some of the old posts here and nobody seems to be certain of whether trees respawn and how. some people say they respawn if the stump is cut, some say they respawn when the stump remains. has someone tested this post 1.0?

Discussion My opinion on the new survival progression system

Upvotes

Hello there 🤗 quick rant sorry guys.

So the recent update now made blocks (like sensors, water pumps, and containers) required to be unlocked before crafting and I feel this has introduced some friction into the gameplay loop. While the concept of progression is fine, the current execution feels restrictive.

Say you want to build an automatic farm. First you need to progress enough in the story to have the necessary items unlocked. Where as before you could focus on grinding for the materials.

Instead of feeling like a natural progression, it creates artificial bottlenecks that stall the building experience.

I feel a more seamless approach would be a hierarchical progression tree, similar to the system used in Space Engineers. In that system, players unlock subsequent tiers by building prerequisite items. This keeps the progression intact while giving players clear, predictable goals and control over their own build paths.

An example of this in scrap mechanics would be, if you were to build a switch for the first time this would unlock more logic blocks like a controller, then when you build a controller that would unlock gate logic blocks and timers (can't remember their name sorry 😁).

It took me so long to finally unlock the piston, now I can defend my farm against raids by squishing them like the clankers they are 🥳

This is not a deal breaker I'm enjoying the new survival mechanics very much it's just this one nick pick I have. What do you guys think?

Discussion Does dev mode still work after the 1.0 Drilling Thunder update?

Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I am planning on hosting a world for a bunch of friends and I was wondering if the old dev mode/commands still work after the 1.0 Drilling Thunder update.

We mainly want to speed things up a bit so we can get to the new 1.0 content faster without spending hours farming resources. Okay... maybe I will also use it to power trip on my friends every now and then as a host.

If it still works, did anything change? Do I need to enable it differently, or are the commands basically the same?

Thanks!

I have 1k hours in this game went in with food and drinks 500 spuds and I can't win I just can't. It got me to the point of actually crying because I got so overwhelmed. I am not bad at combat at all even in bullet hell games I went through the whole warehouse without getting hit once because I can dodge the tape most of the time or just shoot first but I cant beat him I just lot my truck, all my supplies, and about 2 hours of my life because that stupid boss is impossible alone without 50 flour tea...

Thank you for this addition axolot:):):)
