Testing 245: Sovereign Worlds!

why not a trial period for sovereign worlds? 7 days sovereign trial so people can try out all the cool features with a single trial world.

Oh wow that’s fantastic, thank you!


After I did see updated warp interface I have been missing it on Live. This is my main reason why I hope update would come fast :smiley:

So I did not get on to build multiple named beacons with items in them…but looks like the first batch of worlds are offline. I had a single beacon with a world control in it and I’m not seeing the world control as something I can get from reclaim storage.

If worlds are locked and beacons don’t expire then this is fine but I thought the beacons were being forced to be reclaimed?

Still not overly worried since I think Luca wrote that the reclamation process can take up to a day?

I’ll check back on it tomorrow.

The Worlds are still Locked and haven’t been shut down yet.

Hey!
I think World Control minting value is listed too high with current input materials.

If somebody is interested right now it is listed for 3 coins per control(4.2 with coils). mass craft recipe I: 54 stone, 18 gleam O: 25 control and craft time being 4m10s on table.

Yes completely agreed. This is asking for spark/gleam doors all over again.

I was wondering about the naming of the planets.
Such as any restrictions besides the normal coc rules regarding in game text.

I want to know if i can name a planet an emoji sign possibly?

Please forgive me if this has been mentioned or said, i tried doing a search and re-reading the post and did not find anything regarding this.

Emojis are allowed in naming for GC members.

(Assuming you can get past our over-enthusiastic profanity filter.)

How Do Biomes Work or is that Random or can you get a Biome from the Boundless Trailer lol

Each world type has its own profile: resources available, atmosphere type, color palettes and most likely also prefabs and biomes (judging by how certain terrain types repeat on the same type worlds).

So, if you like a biome you have seen somewhere, make sure you know what type of world it appeared on and go for the same type of sovereign world. You will have a chance to get that biome then.

I think it’s the closest to customizing you can get at this moment - just give yourself a chance of colors or biomes you want by picking right world type (profile).

So Getting a Biome from the 1st seconds of the Paris trailer is a no lol

I don’t know. Don’t remember that one - can you tell if you saw one of them on any world after full release?

you mean the older trailer from before the release?

Since we now know, thanks to Luca, that they use the World Builder for these worlds I’ll share this:

The profile and lighting are tied to the world node. I believe profile only has to do with the resource distribution (full list can be found at the bottom of this post). As you can see, biomes have a spot in the generator which is separate from the profile.

Also for the trailer, @BabyCookie, do you mean this one?

however - certain biomes don’t appear on tier 1 or 2 but do on tier 5-6; so they seem to group biomes by world tier? and then world builder would pick from only certain number of biomes depending on world profile? so kinda not direct but indirect relationship between world profile and available biomes…

only guessing here

So it may be you can stack a biome profile on the resource profile - I was hoping that might be the case based on the post made about the “Arid” world type? Perhaps being able to pick, say T6 Burn (resource profile) + Arid world type? Would make a huge difference if trying to get resources of certain sorts - seen MASSIVE differences in things like gem totals on exos of the same types. Depends on the terrain, which determines resources. Personally hoping there will be a water profile I can stack on a T6 Toxic (lots of emerald/amethyst). But then, they might judge it to be a little OP’ed if we can do that. I’ll still probably try if not but it would sure load the dice more our way to roll it picking a biome profile.

I know which one now, alright :sunglasses:

I can’t tell you how they’ll do it but there is categorization by Tier, yes.

However, strictly speaking, I could make a lush profile world with T7 biomes I think. Again, not sure what they’ll do.

As a spoiler, here’s the names of some T7 ones:
