Things you didn't know but found out by accident

I just recently discovered that ‘creep’ stops you from falling off edges!

Tie this with the settings menu option to change the creep button to a toggle, makes for much easier building, no more falling off ledges while placing blocks!

This one reminded me … not sure how it works on PC but on PS4 if you set the “creep” to toggle then when you press the button in water you will sink rapidly.

Combined with that sinking feeling makes for some quick underwater gathering.

Just remember to hit the “creep” button again or you won’t be able to swim back up.

This killed me sooo many times when it was first introduced and I had no clue why my toon wouldn’t swim up lol

Couple of days ago I read this thread and thought “Nothing ever surprised me”…

Couple days later, is just accidentally found out that if you fall on sand rather than rock, you can fall from much higher without taking damage. Then I tested on grass, and I actually take less damage than rock too, but not as good as sand! Pretty cool find imo!

If You swing a liquid breaker in front of you, you got a little air before it fills up.
If you swing it and walk on the sea floor, You can walk on until your energy go out, or your inventory is full of water blocks…

Unless they fixed it you can still drown even tho the meter looks like there is air left. Has happened to me on more than one occasion.

Is that from the chat box or something else??

OMG! I’ve been playing since the first week of launch and just YESTERDAY I learned you don’t need to have the portal epic to get to exo planets. Game changing. :nerd_face:

Any text box. I found it on signs. I think its a ps4 thing rather than boundless. Only took 5 years to find it! Haha

  • When your on any planet and place your conduit blocks down you can go to locations tab to port to the capital

  • You can change your skill page without any cool down in your home beacon

  • eating a star berry pie means you can endlessly mine without losing energy

^^ I got told about them pretty recently and had no idea!

Makes sense, it’s a warp :smiley:

Lol. Very, very, slowly.

I have been working on a new shop with over 1500 stands for over a month now. So far i have named 50 signs.

I usually use my phone to chat in game, but that doesnt speed up signs unfortunately

Please, hook up any old USB keyboard or get a cheap Bluetooth one, makes things sooooo much easier!

Lol i really should look into that. My PC with its blutooth keyboard is literally next to the playstation.

Another option would be to install the RemotePlay application on your PC and connect to the PS4, it will mirror the screen, you can play normally but use the PC keyboard to enter text…
