Update 01.129 - Server Side Character Control & Client Side Prediction

FIRST

Really hope the fixes for simspeed drops are working

 

2nd

Xocliw ur friend seems nervous

 

hkStackTracerWin32.cxx error in DS are worse than ever... "Thanks¹"

My DS will be closed for longer... All that work to build and maintain that "####" to stay closed for the second consecutive update "Awesome, Thanks²".

 

Gud gud gud. Thanks, devs

 

Sweet.

To use emissives:
1) Model as usual in any editor, and create emissive textures with any name you want (You can use Emissive, Emissive0, etc... if you want, but you don't have to).
2) In ModAPI, call IMyEntity.SetEmissiveParts("NameOfEmissiveTexture", Color, brightness);

This also works with stock emissives! It also works with everything! Blocks, floating entities, and should work for weapons and the character too!

Code:

void SetEmissiveParts(string emissiveName, VRageMath.Color emissivePartColor, float emissivity)
    Member of VRage.ModAPI.IMyEntity

Summary:
Sets the emissive value of a specific emissive material on entity.

Parameters:
emissiveName: The name of the emissive material (ie. "Emissive0")
emissivity: Level of emissivity (0 is off, 1 is full brightness)
emissivePartColor: Color to emit

 

first page!)
hooray to rubberbanding for your camera!
hooray to drunk astronaut! it literally cant walk straight
hooray to astronaut fsm failures it seems like it misses transaction event. right now it walks, with "falling" animation.
caught desync. now a suit walks right when i press w. camera lost 1 degree of freedom: moves only up-down (mouse). hooray
lifehack: switching to flying forces sync.

@Malware: i used to save state every run. now i can decrease pb load on server. sincere thanks.

 

- fixed small ship missile turrets not shooting

The automated gatling turret were not working too (on previous version).
Can't test the new version until night time...

 

More handheld weapon variety, neato.

Any idea when astronaut NPCs will be a thing, if ever?

 

first page?

 

Looking forward to testing. Last week's update made our DS game unplayable, so fingers crossed I can actually move this week.

 

As much as I love programmable blocks... aren't there more pressing matters to attend to? Like SSS and Inventory related disasters? Either way, good update and hopefully at least half the community can still play the game

 

Nice teaser of Winona at the end.

 

does this fix the solar panels MaxOutput read on DS?

 

Yay Community Fixes are back
also I love that Pistol, love the teasers, they feed the hype
good job !

 

really nice pistol, but where's the trigger ?

 

Yaaaay first site!

Hope our dedicated server runs better now.

 

o i guess that means that still the animation wont work on our DS :/ jetpack still wont lift me up from the ground and I STRONGLY HOPE that when You said Gyro wierd behavior you mean that the strenght of my gyros will return to USABLE state becouse since last update it takes about 20 sec to rotate my ship 306 degree ...just when i was about to succeed in encouraging by 2 frends to buy the game :/

 

OMG that HandGun!

Flametrower next. ;D

 

@Xocliw @Deepflame SimSpeed still sitting at disastrous 0.08 while typing this. I call lies! Slander! Misconceptions! Cats and dogs living together!





Edit: i'm always amazed to see people "disagreeing" with a factual statement. It's not a Dislike button kids.

 

Programmable block fixes/improvements were community fixes by professional programmers on their spare time...

 

Changes to the way MP works? Butthole tightly clenched....

 

Wow.. my character on my server is lagging in random directions. Same problem for other players on my server. PLEASE hand out a hotfix ASAP! ops:

 

So happy to see community fixes again.

To all those who contribute on Github, you have my unending gratitude. Thanks for helping to make the game better.

 

First page! Very nice update. New Pistol? Looks good. I like those fixes. Thanks Keen!

 

What planet was that video on?

 

What you the devil losses have made you? With your last patch pulls me at the movement, at me lighting, synchronization with the server to hell has broken to devils! Just tell WHY WHY YOU HAVE ACTED THIS WAY?
The lamps which are adjusted earlier within two fucking hours don't give now the necessary flowers at all! Hey yeah - they burn in those color scales which have been conceived - BUT LIGHTING STUPIDLY NEUTRAL EVERYWHERE! Instead of beautiful shades IT is SIMPLE BLYaT ANY!
Besides now of your checks locations of the player on the server or as you have written it there - at me the character continuously PULLS Izz when walking! Plus to it also returns on an old position just regularly! WHY to do patches which BREAK and nothing is repaired?
Why then to you not to upload publicly the OLD version (here literally without this last patch) the client that I could play with NORMAL awesome beautiful from within (thanks to WORKING AS it is NECESSARY to lamps) the ship instead of beholding stupidly "neutral" lighting moreover and continuously lags in that case if the server - not Im?

 

I grouped my forward thrusters then add them increase/decrease thrust override in to bottom toolbar. But they don't show the thrust power.
Sliding instead of walking continues.

 

The PB improvements were implemented by Malware. Keen put only a small amount of time into it.

 

Awfully big patch. Time for some content folder diving to see what they're not telling us about.
