Sorry for the delay, everyone. This should be epic though.

[@vaevictis6990]

Thank you for all the work!

[@DFPercush]

Looks amazing already. I know you had some frustrating hardware problems to deal with, but I hope everything's running smoothly now. Can't wait to see it with everyone else. ^^

[@Kittamaru]

By chance, is the world published? I would absolutely LOVE to play through this!

[@BehrensTrumpet]

Me too 🙂

[@Xarzith_Starfall]

totally worth it

[@rafaellima6383]

I would highly recommend replacing your current thruster physics mod with this one called "Thruster physics & Differential throttling". It adds torque from thrusters like the mod you're using right now, but it also adds the ability to use those thrusters like RCS to turn the ship, as well as a 'thrust trimming' feature that will help you avoid unwanted torque when you're weight is a little off

[@jacksonbarkerthebluehairedfox]

Something I think could've been done with the environment for this season is using the 3D nebula mod with each asteroid field to at least give an indication as to where they are as well as give an interesting feel to each of them.

[@Hobbityfus]

Hey Kanajashi, love the new scenario, just remember: at the pole you have neverending day and either pole isn‘t far on an asteroid.

[@Rumblestrip]

Woot. Waiting for the season 5 mod list lol

[@SurvivalBobGaming]

Nice! Looking forward to this season! It looks amazing!

[@captaindarksign3589]

Yes also hi Bob, love your gameplay too d:

[@spacerbreaker]

This was amazing, i can't wait for Ep. 2 Thanks Kanajashi! BTW I love your new graphics!

[@fl4shb4ckGaming]

that large grid survival kit processes stone more efficiently than the basic refinery

[@dooku186]

I love an old fashioned space scenario. Step one now that you have an outpost: drill a 30m hole adjacent to your base, build a battery in there, move your survival kit in there, add an event controller and beacon so that if the power gets sub 10% it tells you.

[@dooku186]

Reavers will ruin your life if you dont

[@lordsherifftakari4127]

gratz to Gnat for building this scenario. just my 2 Copper Pieces. I'd carefully tow that wreck back and just landing gear lock it to the roid you call home. it'll keep your salvage close once you turn it off and thus undetectable. solar tracking = that is why I like Isy's better than an CTC. 3x Rotors don't have issues with hinge collisions.

[@hunnybunnysheavymetalmusic6542]

While I prefer the deep tunnel in the first asteroid [which I would name "THE ABYSS", I TOTALLY LOVE the name "The IRON Base" on the second asteroid, simply because it just sounds badass too. "The Abyss" and "The Iron Base" are both cool.

[@voxar3206]

I’m just 20 minutes in so far and so jealous of you who get to play that scenario that looks so amazing!

[@HeruKane]

This is cool! Looking forward to stuff. Also I am so happy its in space. I mean later on in the season planet stuff is cool but everyone seems to do planet stuff now to the point where space stuff is ignored. So yeah, seeing space stuff is awesome.

[@Uzzgub]

A Interaction for the Interaction God, a Comment for the Comment Throne, for the Almighty Algorithm

[@michealnelsonauthor]

Schweat! Thanks! I'm double interested, because "scouting planets" is a whole era in the setting of my novel series WIP. This looks like a fun SE series. Lets see!

[@alexhart3395]

Couple thoughts/ Ideas.... Since youre a "Trouble Shooting Expert" with the mission of scouting basically the entire system. It sounds like youll be traveling ALOT. So maybe after getting set up and going you can make a "Science" Vessel as a home base and have several defense craft or even a Gunboat or something that attaches to it. So you have the big ship that warps around and all the little ships that disperse to scout, attack, collect, or mine. Then just build little outpost where ever you need and CONQUER THE GALAXY.... I mean scout... scout the system.

[@shaneedwards596]

been waiting what seems like an eternity and Season 5.01 has definitely not disappointed, but then I've not seen any episode you've done that has for that matter 🙂 thanks for another awesome episode, and I look forward to the next one 🙂

[@systolicbroom1034]

Thank god the wait is over. i have been looking forward to watching session 5

[@daveaauk]

Loving every minute of this. Cannot wait for the next episode. Please hurry!!!

[@alexit123]

@GnatTheGnome @Kanajashi Thanks for producing this!

[@ArcWolf713]

The Specter looks so cool. Excited to see how this season develops.

[@travispluid3603]

Looking forwards to the series! A shame the solar tower isn't able to face the sun properly. XP

[@kiwischolz9811]

1:00:55 your german is pretty good. Also unexpected 😂

[@winterlily6353]

im so fucking hyped, ive been watching since season 1 and its always been a trip watching

[@ramboturkey1926]

thats why i like the wires mod you jumpstart your first grid with ease

[@randallvolk8437]

When you were trying to jump-start the platform, you could have just did a rotor on the base and a rotor-head on your start ship. It does not need to be welded up to transfer power! It would have been a bit simpler.

[@blondeguy5706]

Hoping this season has waaay more combat. I loved seeing those towers take down AI NPCs in other seasons. They were action packed and very exciting. Other seasons were quite boring

[@hunnybunnysheavymetalmusic6542]

36:30 I would SO TOTALLY scrap out that burning wreck and use it to at least get systems working! [even if I did not entirely consume all of it]

[@PeterBoddy]

Looks good, Kanajashi! Could we get a mod list for season 5? :D

[@Littleraven0801]

I 2ed this

[@GnatTheGnome]

Season 5 is a custom mod that I built with a bunch of dependent mods. I could list out the dependent ones, but the custom mod has hidden features that not even Kana knows about yet.

[@greggiroux9432]

Is that a no ? Perhaps you could publish the whole package for those who would like to play along

[@GnatTheGnome]

@@greggiroux9432 The entire thing will be published later. Since it has a story, I dont want to spoil it for Kana (or others) by having someone play through faster than the recordings.

[@greggiroux9432]

@@GnatTheGnome ahhhhh makes sense. I apologize if my comment came across as me being an @ss. I realized it a little late lol. You’re a legend man and I look forward to playing through.

[@bigboibob2568]

In case you didn't know you can do /gps Nickel for example and it makes a GPS at your location with the name Nickel

[@Fenthis]

After watching you in the Escape from Mars thing I think I want to follow this series. This looks fun. Also I like the scrapyard space encounter set.

[@nazgul37]

This season sounds amazing so far!

[@BrothersInArmsCoalition]

I love the new Into man, Looks amazing!

[@krazyivan007]

You could have put a small rotor head frame on your ship and attached it to a large rotor frame on your station without having to actually build them, then attached to transfer power to your station from your ship.

[@KristopherRiddle]

Finally found your channel again after linking my email to Microsoft it reset my KZbin, was a Tuesday when i learned i didn't know how to spell KANAJASHI.

[@fredmorpheus6890]

Oh ! So nice, the new generic. Well done, Kanajashi 🙂

[@MorganHarper87]

4:40 I'm not a Space Engineers player, but I would have expected that a game named Space ENGINEERS would have realistic thrust. Isn't that the engineering that you would play the game for?

[@KemPeck1701]

i AM a Space Engineers player... and i totally agree with you

[@Valenorious]

Well yeah, but there are some KEEN arguments against it. ;)

[@00000005547]

Space engineers has nothing to do with engineering brother its more of like an ARK/MC hybrid with voxel manipulation and dynamic grids. The closest thing would be system engineering but to be honest what much is there to think about when designing something in this game? Just make sure the conveyors connect when placing stuff and just make sure that you have enough power generation and enough thrust to move and stop. Don't get me wrong I like the game but being an aerospace engineer myself I can promise you the game has zero engineering involved

[@MorganHarper87]

@@00000005547 Well, I do, at least, appreciate that unlike other physics-based vehicular building games (Trailmakers, Scrap Mechanic, etc.), SE doesn't have any kind of 'building mode.' If you need to repair a blown-off wheel, you need to consider the logistics of placing it. You can't just lift it into air and slap another on. And, I know that doesn't equate to engineering, but it does at least require a more thoughtful approach to solve some problems.

[@marcusdirk]

"Reputation with SCRAP dropped." How do they know? It's a derelict hulk drifting through empty space in an uncharted sysem! 🤔

[@darrelfraser5503]

Use your up coming stat days over xmas for some awesome episodes, my fellow canuck, cheers.

[@DemTacs]

If you're laughing, maybe you should check your tank supply. Just to be sure you have filled it up with O2 and not with NOS. ;P

[@dennisklaus7188]

I see you only have one of the many plugins turned on. Probably should explore more of those, as space just real is a plugin as well. Notable plugins that really add to the experience or are a QOL: Build Info, Build Vision, Tool Switcher, Toolbar Manager, GPS Folders and More, GPS Extended, Multigrid Projector, and Better Inventory Search. And you can counteract the realistic thrust by turning on the override on a gyro. For a mod that would help with the style of play for the series could try recon camera, just don't use it in tandem with camera panning, it's really hard to control with both on. Last thing, now if you want to change up the respawn mechanics I do have the mod Cryo Respawn out on the workshop. Okay that's it, go have fun.

[@corbi8599]

Looking forward to see more of the season, just one thing that bugged me: Wouldn't that 'realistic thrust' thingy require an atmosphere to unbalance the vehicle? Y'know, friction and such.

[@AnonNopleb]

Air friction is not required at all. In order to change the angular momentum (i.e. get the ship spinning), torque is required. When a force is acting off-centre on an object, e.g. an offset thruster your ship, you have a non-zero component of the force that is perpendicular to the line to the centre of mass and thus applies torque. It must be said that you can counteract this torque with another force that applies an opposite torque, e.g. when you fire some off-centre side thrusters as well and to a lesser extend using gyroscopes. I wonder why the mod Kana uses here does not utilise counter torque. I believe the mod "Thruster physics & Differential throttling" by Knsgf can do this In vanilla space engineers, thrusters cannot apply torque to the grid they are on, this is only possible to a small extend via subgrids. However, gravity generators in combination with mass blocks and several clang drives that abuse game physics are able to apply considerable torque. With air friction, non-zero net torque occurs in an object if one side to the centre of mass experiences more friction force than the other. This is one of the physical principles that enables airplane flight control.

[@Bat_Tech419]

Hello Kanajashi, found your page through Splitsie's series of Wrong Way Up from a year ago. Do you have your point of view VOD's. I would have loved to see your guys' perspective and battle. You guys were great! 🦇

[@michaelperry7527]

This makes me want to return to Space Engineers...

[@abacus3550]

Looking forward to this.😁

[@shahbazfawbush]

32:30 lacking imagination we are. Just turn off hinge lock and nudge the solar panels into desired angle with your ship...

[@sirddee]

Lo and behold, finally!

[@hunnybunnysheavymetalmusic6542]

Whole lotta things I'd have done different, but overall, really cool!

[@Valenorious]

You could have just placed down a rotor instead of a connector. And turn your ship into a subgrid by attaching it with a rotor part. Then you have power to your base. Similarly with fixing the solar tower. Grind out the center block and hinge part. Put a full armor block back in the center. Attach a hinge part back on to it. Then make the hinge part attach again to the hinge base. No need to rework the entire pannel.

[@Locomotor1979]

posst this map and every thing related to this run off yours you got a good starting point setup base in that tunnel

[@DFPercush]

HYPE!

[@Pcoakaloid]

Yep more of this please colour me interested ;)

[@lunar_order]

Honestly you should have put a small amount of components to build like one solor panel and a connector

[@jkirkwood2018]

adjust your solar speed in the turret controller

[@SkywishesMedia]

Can I make a slight suggestion? Get the scavenger robot ASAP, they are your best source of random items early on, including other bot modules, as you probably already know though, as you have played with A.I Enabled before. Free items are always worth it.

[@mdewcool]

I would have used the spectra to manually tilt it to the sun. Im sure i would have broken something doing it to 😂.

[@christiaancoenen652]

I love the series, but what about connecting the ship to the base with merge blocks

So no AutoPilotAerodynamics from season 4 this time? I was trying to use that script on my plane but have got some issues, so I thought maybe you could tell the author to update it if it's still a thing in this season but seems like it's not. huh...
