Starbase STU Update 10.07.2024 - STU Build 1000047

  • Fixed another invisible UI in the Station Editors.
    - Due to this fix, the station editor UI boxes will reset to their default sizes and orientations after this update.
  • Fixed ctrl + a being able to select capital ship dock corner holograms in capital ship designer.
  • Made temporary changes to P2P connections:
    - This will likely cause increased latency, but will help us to pinpoint the "shadow realm" issue's origin depending whether or not it still occurs.

Starbase STU Update 10.07.2024 - STU Build 1000045



Patch notes:

  • Station blueprints now have a max file size, so the very biggest of stations may not be able to be saved or used to replace stations anymore.
    - As such, very large stations may get the "Station too large to perform blueprint operation." error, even if otherwise within building budget limits.
    - However, we have optimized station data usage slightly, with more significant tweaks to come in the future, so the max limits shouldn't be so easy to reach.
    - If you run into the error now, we ask for your patience as we will alleviate this issue in the future with further fixes
  • Fixed using reconstruction machine sometimes sending players in middle of Eos.
  • Optimized station areas to unload when enough damaged modules are present to prevent performance issues.
  • Damaged station modules are removed after losing 60% of their contents to prevent performance issues.
  • Applied minor fixes and additional logging for the issue where players would not see each other.
    - If you come across with players in the area not loading for you, please make an F1 ticket as this will provide us with info on this situation and please include information such as time when this happened and name of the user that is in the "shadow realm" from your perspective.
  • Fixed replacing station with a blueprint causing the station and its modules to stop functioning normally.
    - Previously made blueprints will remain broken and still cause issues.
  • Added Laser Rifle, Energy cell, Weapon Crafting Benches and its upgrades to the cheat tab (STU Only).

Starbase STU Update 02.07.2024 - STU Build 1000043

Patch notes:
  • Added filler tools and arclighter magazine to dev tool tab.
  • Added NSY03-LFR Mammoth, NSY14-LPS Merino, NSY15-DIY Malamute I, NSY20-LMS Magnus MnA, Ds-01, Marauder, DS-02 Mooray, DS-03 Minotaur and NSY19-SPS Marmot-PS spaceships to the premade ship folder in spaceship designer.
  • Fixed ships sometimes not being despawned to a correct station when multiple stations were in vicinity.
  • Fixed test server settings for dismounted/spaceship max loaded showroom ships not doing anything.
  • Changed stations to unload incrementally, eliminating freezes on opened station change.
  • Fixed some missing description locales from station designer assets Decorative Column C and Window 216x864.
  • Fixed "Base Beam 90° 12x54 cm" and "Decorative Surfacing Ceiling Plate 4" locales.
  • Fixed ship warping causing moon collisions to shift, which in turn made it possible for players to collide with invisible walls.
  • We discovered that station blueprint saving fails if the station has a reconstruction machine with any endo kits in it
    - We hope to have this fixed soon, but in the meantime if blueprint saving fails, remove any reconstruction machines and try again
