EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

New Terraformental!!!

Theres probably a lot i could say about this update (Why did i have to finish it so fast (T_T) (well, ACKTUALLY, Im at 99.25% completion, which is almost sadder than 100%)

But I'll just ask a few questions with bonus speculation (Spoilers! duh):

1. Would I be right in assuming the VTOL isn't fully implemented yet? I fixed the power system just to see if it would say anything and nada. Also, it tells me that the motors from the mining machine would be able to fix it, but there's no option to take them. I'm assuming you just haven't implemented that since the rest of the VTOL can't be fixed yet, and so the motors would be otherwise useless. Of course, the propellers and nav unit don't seem to be anywhere yet (Although it's possible I missed them, not likely, but possible.) I'm guessing we might find those at Strabo since it seems to be some sort of Vehicle manufacturing facility.

2. Did I miss figuring out the name of the glacier facility? Because once I saw the crates at Astrape it said that if we looked at the dam grates again, I might figure it out, so I was expecting that to be the fabled last persistent action, but even after collecting all the crates next loop, there wasn't anything. I'm guessing now that is just supposed to be something I figure out irl. (I've forgotten some of the clues so, oh no! I might have to play again! what a terrible fate!) (From what I remember its PNAUMA ??? that seems wrong... oh well)

3. Not really a question, but when parking the rover is Astrape (Pre artifact) The text prompt appears when you cycle the gate rather than when you actually park the rover in there, seems to be misplaced.

4. no more for now, but i may be back with more questions later.

Is my autism showing?

No. I tend to ramble a lot too... brevity isn't my strong suit.

1) You're correct that the VTOL isn't fully implemented. You can repair the power system and use it to charge the power block, but that's all for now.

2) Once you've seen all the dam crates once and the Astrape crates once, you have the full name. The logs around this have a couple bugs in them, so it's not made as clear as it should be yet, but once you've done both you can search the new facility in Laurion.

3) I think this was fixed in the .27 hotfix which went out late yesterday, but thank you for the report.

Glad you enjoyed the update :)

ahh so that's why you can fix the VTOL power systems. The rover gradually loses all purpose at Astrape. Also thank you, i now know what the last persistent action is.

Also I really wonder what a speedrun of this game would look like when its finished, already there's so much to consider, like which facilities you even go to/finish. Like would it be faster to get the Laurion resource artifact first? or would the Astrape power artifact be enough of a time safe to offset that? (prolly not, but you see what i mean?)

One more question, are you just stranded at Astrape after Santorini explodes? theres not even an option to go to the dam?

Shadowsand66 days ago(+1)

Yeah, a fair few people on the discord have been speed running the game so far (mostly trying to reach end of content with fewest loops, or trying challenges like no rover upgrades).

There is a route back to the dam. But for it to be available you have to have driven from the dam to Astrape at least once.
