/egg/ - Engineering Games General - Formerly /svgg/

Sky Spike Edition
Previous jej: The thread is dedicated to all games about building machines and systems out of blocks, in space or otherwise. Also, all these games are ded. Only ded games may join, otherwise they must have their own thread.
Whether or not a game belongs in /egg/ is a case by case matter, however games that would belong in /svgg/, space voxel games general, are automatically considered /egg/

I love you

Thanks for the CP

Love you too user!

I just want a rts game were you have to manage fleet logistics and fighters are bound to carrier due to fuel ect. and the ability to modify your ships.

Is empyrion better than spengineers?

It wouldn't be very engineery once the designing part is done though. Even if the engine had a way to simplify what a certain design could do (rather than just using a basic damage/defence template for each class), the gameplay would stay basically the same.

AN-225 is my cargofu

>uncrewed will never go the extra mile to become The RTS
>FTD is forever stuck in a vicious cycle of unification
>avorion ""RTS"" gameplay is almost as clunky as starmade (god bless)
>dual is just going to be EvE but with all the raiding kids and none of the grand diplomacy

where do we turn to for the RTSineering fix

...

When was the last time something in FtD was unified?

I want a game where you have to build a vehicle by designing your own engine, cooling system, steering, exhaust, fuel tank and transmission. most egg games are just placing blocks and attaching wheels

The game itself, unified into a different "sequel" entirely.

Starsector?

>Unified into two games
M8. Listen. I know you're still salty but FtD is still receiving updates. Have you failed to notice the big balance changes that have passed since then?

What about ChoDE?

Looks shit and the game haven't been update since june

Yes, and they've done nothing to improve the game. Nick "The Retard" Smart keeps fucking rebalancing shit over and over while ignoring all its issues. Balancing fixes fucking nothing when you've got nothing to balance.

I want spengoes but with proper chode-style orbital mechanics, and a multiplayer mode where one guy runs the weapons (targeting solutions etc.), another does the craft engineer stuff (power distribution, shields, thrusters, hydrogen management), one for piloting, and one for direction of the crew. Can't tell y'all how much I've watched youtube stuff where people fly around in crafts with multiple cockpits, but the pilot always has to be twiddling thrusters and connectors and shit.

And I want it not to be written in fucking C#. Script it in bloody 6502 or something, limit every programmed module to 8k RAM plus some I/O.

If only we had the means of production to seize.Any lv3 or older graphics, 3D, FPS, etc. developers around with a desk drawer fulla prototypes? I'm just a lv5 architect, can't do shit myself anymore, but oh boy am I not scared of any clang no mo'

Factorio.

>hydro
>rotors and pistons
>player thinks this is acceptable
gee i wonder why the server is so laggy

uhhhh bad

Destroy it.

location unknown

We must find it and police the simspeed. With lethal force if necessary.

it may look like it from the trailers / pics
but sadly it's not

>grand diplomacy
Big blue donut, you mean.

tomato tomarto

>c#
they still pulled quite a feat in it
>6502
going back to good 'ol C or asm would be enough
>chode-style orbital mechanics and targetting solutions
remove speedlimit, make planetary gravity so large that not orbiting = crash (put black hole in centre of the system)
most importantly: remove any weapons, all turrets and front weapons begone (except warheads), this will ensure use of torpedos
additionally you might want to ban cockpits and any sort of manual control. you want to move ship, you better learn how to override thrusters and gyros only acceptable "enterable" blocks are cryochambers, obviously in this scenario dampeners are nonexistant

but if you wanna start making something from scrach, you can find me alongside electric men dreaming of good simspeed

how did you get the screenshot then?

Turrets are still useful for point defense though. Just make the missiles realistically powerful and they'll naturally be the main weapon of choice over trying to close in and use guns.

I have a job in the food service industry and pictures like this legitimately scare me.

Please spoiler your images next time.

>It wouldn't be very engineery once the designing part is done though.
Who gives a shit? "Once the units are designed you don't get to do anything but use them"? What the fuck kind of complaint is this?

Dampeners can work relative to an object, like autopilot #4 in Warhead. Major problem with chode physics is interplanetary transfers taking fucking ages without fastforward, and how there's no straightforward way to reconcile that with multiple clients; so some kind of a wormhole witch space jump chaos drive would be required for longer distances.

Maybe I've just got The Expanse season 1 on the brain. Spose everyone does.

I just need about ten capable people with skill sets related to mine but distinct yet relevant, with a compatible spirit and two to five years to burn.and some fundingand to be like 26 again... Keen's doing what they can.

>an /egg/man afraid of automation
Just build your replacement and live off the patent money

>and to be like 26
that's ahead of me but not for long ;_;
>two to five years to burn.
we're on /egg/. having years to burn is the default here

> to be like 26 again...
>tfw 20 with no money

A guy named Kslash was grinding shit off our base, I grinded him to death. He is now an enemy of the Warbros.

Anyone here into making vehicles in gmod? Any good /egg/ acf server?

Closest I've ever found. Populated and mostly not retarded. One of them is building oriented, the other is combat oriented.

>The Crossout Cabin update
So this will be the final nail in the Cuckout coffin, right?

>not removing the middle man

The final nail would be a fuel-air bomb detonated in the office of the development studio. This shit is too big to die now.

Well I got turrets set up with 6 magazines in each so we should be alright for a short while. He said he's 16.6 km from us so we should check all the nearby asteroids.

is this hydro?
Raiding within 100km of the beacon is against the rules, so he could probably eat a ban

Yes, it's hydro. The beacon is gone so I'm not sure.

I mean, it flies in general direction of enemy.
Way better than those wheels they wanted to use at D-Day

>Way better than those wheels they wanted to use at D-Day
Those were intended to confuse and throw off the enemy spies.

Except they almost blew the brass on their field test
idk if that was intended

j-just a diversion bro

>evangelion prototype 0.01a

you should see the guy who did purified gold with 1 arm

I highly recommend never doing this.

>cycles
>1642
excellent

you could've cut the area greatly if the thrid phase didn't put the molecule on the right.
just rotate it on the solution slot (this might require you to move reagents 1 block to the left

...

is this like some old APFSDS

>doesn't show it hitting anything
I feel blueballed

Try Aurora 4x
I gave up when I had to design military ships, maybe I will play it again in the future

...

Remember to use protection while using your sexbot.

Aurora is incredible in theory and incredibly broken in practice. It's more of a Veeky Forums where you have to constantly be your own DM and edit the save to unfuck whatever fucked itself than a real video game.

Go away, Noire.

don't try me washboard poster

>drones enabled on hydroserb

if I made a 3d physics based factory game inspired by fugtorio and infinifactory with some simplified BASIC-esc programming elements on all components with a level editor would you die?

Wrong thread. wrong board. Ignore.

You're a smart guy

uuuu 2

>BASIC
ewww
but go on

Any other recs?

I never played but I think From The Depths makes you manage fleets

>no matter what time of the day, or day of the week I play crossout, I always see the same players

Are these people literally playing 24/7?

NEETs

if they have generic names like Adam they're bots

They think the same thing about you.

>Unity
ehhhh

Please don't tell me you think I should enginedev for something as simple as this.

It's not about the engine, its all about how you use it.

Is interstellar rift anyway good? It seems like spengies but a bit more arcadey and it seems to be really unpopular on steam.

No, they arent bots. Unless they are bots made to look like real players to just pad the game out.
