"Research and apply a drilling attachment to your tool." Okay, I've never done that before in this game, how do I research? "Collect 4 of. The tasks you need to do don't really give you any direction. Oh! Close again, but your camera was unlocked and it decided to move when you pressed the button. ![]() Well your mouse was one pixel off so instead of selecting the research lab, you've unlocked the platform it's on. To use a structure, be that a printer, the mission board(?), your habitat, or anything else I didn't bother attempting to get to before requesting a refund, you need to walk within range, put your mouse cursor over it, and press f. Nevermind that other than attempting to make "flat" ground you can't even make smooth ground! Dug down and found a cave? Well the path there is going to be bumpy and you might not be able to jump up the steps you had no choice to make. And I know my character just can't handle those. It always seems to create slight inclines. In reality, the voxels are enormous, and the ability to match elevation is not accurate. Can I walk up a gradual incline? It's like walking on ice! I could stop and turn while on them, no problem. The thing hills and mountains are made of. The thing you need to walk up to get out of caves. As far as your character's ability to navigate terrain, it seems that they don't very much like walking up any sort of incline. So if you're in a cave and would like to, oh I don't know, look around and see what's there, or maybe look for how to get out and back to the surface, your camera doesn't control where your flashlight is pointing! Instead of simply looking around, you need to move the camera then move your character, and you better hope you don't walk off a ledge you didn't see because again, you can't really look around with your flashlight. The direction your camera faces is NOT the direction your character faces. So have "fun" with that.Įxploration problems come down to, well, the camera again, and your character's ability to navigate terrain. Oh and you want to access the stuff on your backpack? Well you have to toggle it off to free up your mouse cursor. And it's even worse when you're trying to place objects. You can easily toggle to where you can't reasonably aim your tools. Did you toggle when your mouse was in the bottom left corner? It's stuck there until you toggle off the camera control. You see, wherever your mouse cursor is pointed on the screen when you toggle camera movement is where your cursor is going to stay. Set the camera movement to toggle with the right mouse button, this way you can set it and let it move around wherever you're pointing. If you're like me, or any other sane individual, you probably want the camera to face, you know, what you're actually doing! Which leads nicely into option.Ģ. You can move your mouse cursor around freely without controlling the camera and do things off to the side of you if you want. If you aren't holding the button, it'll generally, slowly, oh so very slowly, drift towards whatever you're trying to do. Hold the right mouse button whenever you want to move your view around. Oh the camera! Our wonderful view into this little world! If only it could actually be controlled in any meaningful way! For those of us playing with a keyboard and mouse, you have two options.ġ. This is the same for placing buildings and whatnot. You grab a resource stack but as you're placing it the camera shifts slightly and instead of placing it on a storage wall/unit/thing you've just dropped it. It appears to be slick and intuitive, until you try to actually use it, then it all falls apart. ![]() Everything about how this game is played is infuriating.
