A Survey. About Planets

General
22

I am ready. Mainly cause I want new players to gather resources from and have different colored blocks to make things out of. Is my desert base ready? Nope. Not even slightly ready.

I plan on moving everything I own to a Level 4 or 5 Blast World (or one that shares a similar look as Trilea Trif) once the worlds are put on the live server and Portal Seekers has a portal up for me to make it possible for me to move my incompleted desert base to a world that has biomes that naturally form the way I want them and make them perfect for what I have planned (same kind of project just different location).

How do i do this?

All i can do is select the block color from pre-made palettes. And i have no palette-nods.

How lot connections do you have between coders and artists? This task cannot be resolved without art theory of additional colours, using colour circle of J. Itten and other designer’s tricks. And here must be not only “all leaf blocks are varying shades of…”

Absolutely agree with that question. My wife is an art educator, so I will ask her advise for that.

Are you on testing or live? On testing I have the option to link a palette

I am on live, i test test…

Edit:
Yes, there are some color nodes on test, will play with it. :slight_smile:

Edit 2:

It looks like some block color nodes still missing for the base worldcolor node.

Are you using the files from the github repo? Maybe that’s why I have those nodes, idk

I only switched to testserver…

the “palette” nodes are not being shown when in a world-file (just a tiny bug), but honestly youd be pretty crazy to put all the stuff needed for a full procedural palette embedded directly into a world file (it gets HUGE) so I dont see that you would ever really want to use the palette nodes outside of the worldcolors custom-node file anyway.

Ok, i see. I can open a palette instead of a world and save the palette and use it in the world.

Thanks. :slight_smile:

If I may add a few options:

[ ] I’m totally cool with letting the devs do their thing while they generate planets and get the code the way they want it.

[ ] I apologize, I can’t hear you over the sound of me playing the game that’s currently in production

[ ] I’m just here so I won’t get fined

Hey, did the devs ever say when the worlds will go live?

Also, how do I get onto the test servers with the Steam version of Boundless?

36

Same here : P

I have a lot of plots saved up and was going to build a base on one of the less populated worlds we’ve currently got, but I think I’ll wait until these worlds go live

37

Right click Boundless in your games list and hit properties. Then hit the betas tab, and there should be a drop-down menu with the option none selected. If you select testing, the game will update and connect you to the test servers.

Sorry but you must to know: these worlds never will go to live version.

Not sure how you have come to that conclusion? James has specifically stated otherwise.

It was also stated that the worlds are a result of testing. They are fine tuning the procedural generation of worlds.
So yeah, worlds will go live but most likely their third or fourth or whatever version. Just like with the first set of worlds it’s about putting the worlds out there for testing, then wiping them and putting new ones and so on until results ate satisfying enough.
