Apologies, it's now in the list of required items on the right :)

could you possible put a link to the mod for the shield? Otherwise it's a great little rover that I've seen you in.

ok tks Splitsie

The wheels are subgrids, the projector will project the main part of the vehicle and you may have to add the wheels using the control panel once you've made the suspensions

sory but im getting a msg saying that multiple grids arent alowed when i put the blueprint on the projector, am i doing somthing wrong?

I really like that design. Out of all the things I've seen you make in your series, I think it has to be my favorite.

I probably don't need to say how brutal this was to make on survival through a blueprint. But it works well, nice settings for us Splitsie. I am new to the game and will also say you're naming of the cockpit and reactors (No conveyor) had me trying to figure out why (even though i added conveyors) it wouldn't connect! lol. Why the now connections to those items? In true Splitsie fashion i managed to head face first into a tree on the first test drive, on accident, of course.

It's only the shields I think
nonyabidniz 30 Mar, 2020 @ 9:20am

Awesome Splitsie!!!!!!
I so want to use your ships in my game :D

I've not yet looked into how to move vanilla blueprints across, but it's one of the things I'm planning to learn about the xbox version :)
FateWeaver71 7 Mar, 2020 @ 11:19am 
Anyone know how I can get this on the Xbox version of SE?

Hello Splitsie :-)
Big fan of your creations here :-)
Please add me as a friend, I would like to discuss some of them with you.

Thank you and have a nice day

First off Splitsie I found this game because I saw some of your youtube videos and I couldn't be happier this game is awesome! Only been playing around 150 hours or so but I was wondering if you had a mod list that you recommend using to spice up your fresh starts? I would appreciate it thank you!:steamhappy:

That's not the only problem and it's certainly not consistently the problem. Capac and I have happily flown with wheels on at various times, the issues are almost always due to a mobile subgrid (wheel, animated part of a block like a drill head) interacting with the main grid and causing phantom forces.

When I flipped the chomper, removing the drill is what fixed it and I've seen that happen before on several occasions too, when Capac flipped the bitter pill it was the animated shield modulator block that was the issue there. These blocks seem to mess with the centre of mass just enough to throw off the thrusters in some way that doesn't entirely make sense given my understanding of SE's physics simulation :/

I don't know if anyone else posted this, but I figured out how rovers with thrusters are flipping. For some reason, having wheels on while using thrusters messes with the craft's movement.

In other words: Use thrusters OR wheels, you can't have both on at the same time. (You can have both on a single craft, just turn off one when you turn on the other)

@SpreadDantdm The tradition seems to be that they're put in the workshop collection when they're "retired" and not likely to be used again. The Fightertron and Croisssant and Chomper got destroyed, the Cockroach got hijacked... It's likely that the Bitter Pill will be uploaded if it meets a gruesome end that they can't salvage it from.

Got a call from Miki recently. He runs a scrap operation on Mars. Thriving by all accounts, despite all his whining about GCorp. I keep telling him to move to my planet - there's no end of scrap what with the space pirates throwing drone after drone at me. Idiots.

He knows I have an eye for the rare and unusual ships so showed me this. What a mess. Shot to shi- er, pieces and half of the front missing. Says a freighter captain brought it in: found it floating in space. This thing has wheels, what's it doing out there?

Miki reckons he's seen something like it before so traded the captain before he got any idea of its value. I saw why when I got to Mars to pick it up - this thing has some super-rare shield tech.

Wasn't cheep either; Miki wanted my Super Gremlin for it but the colour spoke to me - had to have it. I've got it pretty much restored. There's definitely something about it. If it could talk, I bet it would have a hell of a story to tell, but I guess we'll never know...

Goodbye Chomper, may you rest in peace. Your sacrifice was not in vain, your last breath gave life to the great Splitsie Pheonix... He will avenge you someday!
"I see him winning it so well, that my name is made illustrious there by the light of his. . . .
It is a far, far better thing that I do than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest I go to than I have ever known."

Farewell chomper, you were a candle in Splitsie and Capacs excessive wind.
SpreadDantdm 6 Feb, 2020 @ 2:21pm 
I finally no longer have to aks when this will be out. How about the Bitter Pill v2? When will Capac put that on the workshop? Does Splitsie even know when? Will Capac ever be bothered to do it?
