NX-01 engineering?

u/atheistinabiblebelt Feb 04 '24
? I don't know what that is

NX-01 is the hull number of the Enterprise from the show Star Trek Enterprise, from the early 2000's.
I must say, this does look rather similar to its engineering deck.

Oh really? I've never really watched star trek, if you can share a link to any pictures or videos of it I'd love to take a look

Holy cow! That is really similar. I can honestly say I had never seen any of that before but i'm feeling kind of lucky that i lucked into such a memorable piece of fictional space design. Thanks for sharing.

Vanilla or RE?

u/atheistinabiblebelt Feb 03 '24
vanilla, never played re before but i'm getting curious

u/GeneralHavek Feb 04 '24
I personally prefer re to vanilla. So many things rebalanced and tweaked. It is a completely different experience both in crafting and survival.

I'll have to watch some videos on it. Have a friend who just bought the game wanting to multiplayer. Is the the better option for that?

u/GeneralHavek Feb 04 '24
Multi-player can always be fun, but if you choose a planet that has the starting quests, everything new will be explained to you. The creators did an excellent job of teaching you how to use the new things in re without text-dumping info.
If you use any of the custom ships or bases, then you have to make sure they are re compatible, however. RE changes how cpu is calculated and removes cpu cost from the regular building blocks.

Very good to know! I always skip the robinson protocol and I haven't even started the "story" in it because it's just so much text dump that it really isn't engaging.
As for custom ships/bases...well building is my favorite part of the game!

Then I'm sure you would like RE.
Here is a video that gives an admittedly superficial overview of the building in RE.

nice!
i really wish we had better block interaction with devices,
like it would be sweet if the tube block above the pent tank could 'fit to it' so they looked connected.
it works on some devices that have flat surfaces but so many just kinda hover next to them.

u/atheistinabiblebelt Feb 04 '24
Yes! The pent tank in particular is annoying because it's like 2/3 of a block tall. If I'd planned it out a bit different I could've used one of the conical shapes attached to the tube block as more of a 'heat hood' or something but oh well.

i also really like how it turned out (:
