@Tagris

home beacon on my planet,

You can set home on sovereigns ?

[Tagris]

Uncertain, I have no tested.

[iRedactoid]

The option is there so, I’m guessing you can.

@DKPuncherello

You can set home on sovereigns ?

Yes you can. Did it in test with no problems

[Nevioni]

Sorry If this is answered somewhere else,

Does Gleamclub keep your sovereign planet fuelled?

[majorvex]

No - You get the 1st 30 days of fuel for free, then have to buy fuel to extend it.

The Process of Renting a Private Planet (video guide)

Some asked what the process looked like, so I made a quick video walk-thru. [New! How to rent a WHOLE planet in Boundless]

@james

Q How long does a Private World initially last for?

Once your World is purchased, it will be generated, then will remain online for an initial 30 days. Extending this is simple with one of the World Fuels available in the store.

Q How do I extend the duration of my Private World?

To extend the duration of a Private World, purchase a World Fuel from the online store. You will then be sent a key via email. On receiving this, head to the Shop > Redeem tab in-game and simply input the key to extend the duration of your World by the amount of time you purchased. These are available in various increments.

World Fuels are universal across both types of planet, and all sizes. The amount of time they add scales with the size of the World. For example, a Lesser World Fuel will confer 30 days to a 3 km World, 15 days to a 4.5 km World, and 7.5 days to a 6 km World.

Yes you can otherwise I would be a grumbling mess!

Yeah, yeah, can it, I mean more than usual, ok?

It was one of the last few things they hadn’t done yet after some time so I explictly asked about it in the testing 245 thread and I believe it was luca who answered they had indeed changed it so it would be possible, it just wasn’t in the patch notes yet…

Testing 245: Sovereign Worlds!

Not so much found as agreed on. There was never a big blocker to making it work; just that work is needed to “make it work” and the simpler solution to get things out the door was to disable until we could work on it. (I used “work” too much in that sentence…) rule implementing now [ probably nicer solution, but also easiest implementation wise ] if the world your home is on is deleted or locked (or you lose visit permissions), then “warping home” (including after death) does the equivalent of …

Thanks vex, I was more wondering if gleamclub could be used as an alternative to the posted method but I guess not, shame though as that would have gotten me to sign up for gleamclub

[majorvex]

Maybe they’ll consider package deals in the future, I can’t say for sure
Right now GC is processed via steam/ps and the other is a private/personal purchase processed via a website with different time lengths so I don’t think it would work at the moment.

[roxie6136]

Can you buy both worlds. And how can you give permission to your friends to come and visit on the created worlds

[majorvex]

Yes & if they are your friend you can give them access permission via the world control. You can also give them normal perms on your regular beacon if you’d like to.

[Demoshzer]

how much time comes on a world when you buy it or do you have to buy time for the world right away?

[TH0R]

you get 1 month time WITH the first purchase of your world
regardless of size, 1 month duration is party of the deal

[karakavra]

How do you access the planet once it is online? I can’t find the way, I know it’s a level 6, but as much as I look for it, I can’t find it

[majorvex]

AUS EUR USE or USW?

[karakavra]

european zone

[majorvex]

Sovereign Planet?

When you go to Cardass or Kol Huroo and then the sanctum, you should see it in the worlds menu and it should say 1 blinksec away.

[karakavra]

I’m in malurialakrib at 11 blisecs xd, I think it’s even further

[majorvex]

Your planet should be in orbit around either Cardass or Kol Huroo and it will be 1 blinksec away.
