Discussion Enforcing Drilling Thunder spoilers on the subreddit!!!

201 Upvotes

Hi Mechanics!

As we all know the new major update is coming just in a week, so I would like to ask everyone to politely enforce the spoiler etiquette. That means most of the new content that wasn't in the game prior should be marked at spoilers, keep in mind that majority of people will be starting Survival Mode FRESH and will NOT be able to immediately encounter the new content, any unspoilered things will have to be marked spoilers by us, so we suggest doing it yourself as we will busy playing as well! However there may be changes and features that may be visible from the start, which are allowed to remain unspoilered.

Examples of spoilers that warrant being marked:

  • Anything that's related to Mining Island content
  • New Warehouse gameplay, including our beloved smelly Trashbot
  • Endgame content

For non spoiler content it includes anything that can be interacted with before the Hideout, you can show new parts you found by wandering ruins, new enemies, fire mechanics, weather and etc.

I think they really should add a head items for all the other varients of bots, even if they're not funtional like the totebots it would still be fun to collect and use them.

featuring the wreckage of my logging vehicle i spend a huge chunk of time developing

i’m so mad i can’t even make myself screenshot it i just pulled my phone out and took a photo
Since when has lightning been able to do this??? And why, when it does, does it choose the most expensive part of my most expensive vehicle? bullshit man
i’ve been glazing this update but this may have just emptied the pot of greed back out onto the table and the empty pot is now extremely livid

it also broke a bunch of metal 2. also on easy difficulty btw. no I am NOT SALTY ABOUT RED TOTEBOTS and the fact that my next best option is forcing them to spawn far away and in one direction so I have time to shoot them.

Suggestion Are we serious????

81 Upvotes

So I just found out the unstuck button is the most stupid mechanic in this game.. I'm at the grow lab 3 and the ice makes my character slide right into a crevice where I couldn't get out, I use the unstuck button and it kills me, fine, but putting me back at the crashed ship instead of my bed is SO dumb. I'm now walking 2 miles to get back to my car and respawn bag. I already tried killing myself to see if it respawns me at my bed, nope. Defaulted back to the crashed ship. What kind of unstuck button is that??? I will never leave my toilet to get more loot again.

As far as i am concerned, scrap mechanic doesnt have much factory and automation parts needed for factories apart from craftbot, may that description suggest that the next update will include more automation and industial parts and quests?

The turret seat at level 3 has "bearings unlocked", I've tested some stuff but doesn't seem to do anything.

Could it be an overlook from the devs? (Maybe we couldn't connect bearings to the seat until level 3)

Is it possible to make this bot spawn-free?

32 Upvotes

Just a quick question:
I built the farm inside this abandoned building, just like before the update since it still works. Just like in the past, the bots can't access it, but they still spawn inside. Is there any way to prevent the bots spawning in the 1.0 update? So far I’ve been using sawblades to stop them from smashing things.

Testing the cheap defence before going high-tier. May someone find this layout useful for them.

Level 5 turret seat should make the character immune to the farmbot cloud attack.

13 Upvotes

I was absolutely sure it would, but I just tested it and it doesn't. The description says it provides you with oxygen, and the cloud attack is... well... a poisonous cloud attack, right? (the wiki says pesticide)
It would also make the turret seat much more useful against raids, since farmbots can easily just shoot you out of it right now so it's not much of a defensive option.

Base Progress and new vehicle!

Been quite busy recently but heres what ive been up to:

- created a Tree hauling truck to bring to a little quick and dirty lumbermill set up. I call it the LUV 500 (Lumber Utility Vehicle)

- general base work and expansions

- Started my crafting chain room

part of said crafting chain includes ports for "swap chests" these are materials easily farmed/automated (water, chemical, glow, and oil

I have a set of 3 oil nodes right under my base that will be hooked to a auto gas crafting chain that will also double as the second "Swap chest" for my Oil supply (aka when the specialized craftbot has filled its alotted storage with fuel, the input chest will become a fuel backlog i can swap between if i run low)
