There's a definite push and pull. I loved watching your progress, but then I started understanding too much

So many Jhoosiers died for this episode.

Finally figured it out. Go up the stairs, there are 4 green hologram shapes. Pass through them and they turn red. Gotta be quick, though.

There's a guide here: empyriononline.com/threads/epic-store-release-and-custom-content.102562/ Don't forget that you will need to restart the game if you install the blueprints while it's running.

That's what I do when I want to finish the mission, but it's also worth knowing what playfields are in a star, so that's good argument for going to new places.

... and I finally made it to the part of the video where you figured it out. 👍

@@teakeycee haha, yeah it was a trial

I don't have a definitive answer for you. I believe the patch notes say "may", but who knows what that means. So many things could have an effect, like how many bills you're updating from, how significant the changes are, how far along you are on missions, etc.

@@Jhoosier but what about you? Haven't you used the command? If I'm not wrong you started the serie before the update.

@@redkawa636 I did use the command, but I've only done part of the Galaxy survey quest. It didn't reset completely, I had to redo the first "find a UCH vessel" quest, then the survey quest was available where I'd left off.

@@Jhoosier thanks for the reply, I think I'll man-up and just go for it. Nice little ship you spawned there, I love ArtemisRouges' work!

Thanks for reminding me, I'll try to install it and give it a go for next episode

Thanks for the comment, no offense taken or anything. Sometimes I try a stream, then the technical problems remind me why I don't do it. I think streams can be done well and have their uses, but not really for a narrative gameplay.

@@Jhoosier One thing for sure, with a big enough audience they can net some money. Although they are not my cup of tea, I really wish you will be able to do some profit on them one day.

@@lyfeforse7038 she got some use, but definitely could've done more with more resources. Later on, I'd like to use the pirate version for planetary bombardment

I'm not sure exactly how it works on a server, but if you can't rename the core, then you can't deconstruct it. I think there might also be something about both structures needing to belong to the same player/faction.

@@Jhoosier It's an *interesting* idea that I wouldn't mind exploring. Is it time for me to spin up a dedicated server for testing? FOR SCIENCE?

I will say, for RE2 it needs a better location for the universal constructor, and maybe more dedicated locations for furnaces/deconstructors. But otherwise it's pretty nice! One of the only bases I've actually ever had in this game.

@@Jhoosier Thanks man! That means a lot. Agreed on RE2 component spaces. I designed it to be cross-compatible with Vanilla/RE1/RE2, but that's getting more challenging as time goes on.

@@redkawa636 I'm glad you enjoy them! I've thought about doing them on some of the servers as a separate series. Out of curiosity, do you prefer just exploration and flybys, or stopping to poke around the POIs?

@@Jhoosier I am not a fan of MP as I find it usually loud and distracting, but your channel, your game, so do whatever pleases you. As for what I prefer, I prefer you to play the game organically. If you try to please your audience, chances are you will displease everybody. I would just play the game, explore, then you land on a planet, do a couple of POIs if you need/feel like, then move on. This game takes time and patience, it is what it is. As you are a youtuber and need to entertain, maybe you can dare a bit more then casual me and go for for combat sites, explore more advanced areas like the dronelands, but generally play the game as you like to play, I doubt YT is making you big bucks, so just have fun, it will transpire in the videos and we will enjoy it even more. I enjoy your videos as you take a "light approach", sometimes you are goofy, other times there is something to learn and other times you come up with ingenious solutions like the deployables, pretty cool stuff, thanks a lot!

@@redkawa636I can crash anything, it's my superpower.

The turret on the HV is pretty useful in the Abandoned bunker basement, which is pretty large. It's also nice to have backup in the hallways when you're playing solo.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot next time.

There is a setting on servers called "Turret Underground Check". If this is enabled, you can't spawn turrets underground.

Yeah, the pitfalls of trying to record at night with small kids, and YT downlevelling the sound a bunch.

@@teakeycee Definitely the way forward. I need to figure out one that'll fit through doors, though

Sorry, I don't off the top of my head. You can follow along as I do the save transfer in #7 at around 3:50: kzbin.info/www/bejne/boell2t-hb6MfMksi=MeIUkXPtXKvpWB0P KZbin had an error where some video descriptions got erased, which looks to be what happened to #7.

@@teakeycee haha, possibly?

@@Tat2dTroll69 Not that I've encountered so far. Things that aren't bugs that I don't like: The tendency for planets, even in the starter systems, to have heavily armed Zirax bases under 1km from the planet. I lost one SV in alpha, and nearly lost shields on my starter CV loading into orbit. Abandoned POIs: I'm fine with the admin cores, but there need to be some ways to speed up the process. I did the bunker once, and have zero desire to run the entire thing again

I don't know off the top of my head. I'm going to guess they're in pirate-controlled (yellow) asteroid fields, but I could be wrong. No idea which stars are likely to have them, either

@@Jhoosier lol that's what i was thinking, i went to over a dozen of them with no signs

@@jonathonmorgan9915 I dove into the game files a bit. From what I can tell, they'll be in a yellow asteroid field that specifically says "This asteroid field contains a heavily armed pirates battle station." So there won't be any confusion, and you can see from the system map without going to the sector. Game files indicate they're probably in one of the G class stars, not sure if the variant matters. But you'll want to be in either neutral space or pirate territory. They won't show up in Polaris, for example.

It was good of him to let us donkey-sit. We even upgraded the house somewhat before we left.

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!

I'm sure I've traumatized a bunch of people with that.

@@Jhoosier It's mostly because Pandora is one of my favorite "no stress" starts in the game. Things trying to kill and eat you is psychologically different from the clone wars + land of the lost to me....

I haven't seen any pyramids yet, just those towers

Yeah, probably. I was hoping the bronze axe would be better.

@@Jhoosier bronze axe would obviously do better but setting greys on fire gives you precious breathing space while they are panicking as well as they are scared of fire.

Lovely home he "let" us stay in.

I've never been chased by 1-star fulings while trying to fight the Elder. That was so intense!

Given my usual terrible dodging, I'm still amazed I made it!
