The mech assembly station window.After interacting with the Assembly Station players will see slots, similar to their armor equipment slots. The player's mech automatically despawns when the player beams off of a planet or out of a space encounter, becoming available to deploy again from the player's ship. Also, the Interact input causes the player to exit and enter the mech. In all cases, Left Mouse Button activates the mech's left arm, Right Mouse Button activates the mech's right arm, and F activates the mech's horn if one is equipped. The directional inputs accelerate the mech in their respective directions, and the Jump input brings the mech to a stop. In sections of space encounters without gravity, the mech uses a different movement scheme. Left and Right inputs move the mech left and right, Jump input causes the mech to boost upward, and Down + Jump causes the mech to drop through platforms. On planets and in sections of space encounters with gravity, the mech's movement is similar to that of the player. Clicking this button launches a drop pod containing the player inside their mech which breaks apart upon arrival on a planet or entrance into a space encounter. Once completed, they can deploy their mech while they are on their Ship using the "Deploy Mech" option on the teleporter - this option only appears if the ship is parked at a space encounter, an asteroid field, or orbiting a visitable planet. The player automatically acquires a mech by completing the Test Drive quest. They can be equipped to the mech by using the Mech Assembly Station on your space station, or in Dr. Horn: In space, nobody can hear you honk.ĭifferent parts can be obtained by learning their corresponding blueprints, usually found in non-planet locations in space. Legs: Affects Ground Speed and Jump Power.

#Starbound best tech upgrades mod
"The goal is to make good use of modern tech, online multiplayer, Workshop support, that kind of thing." Thinking about a tactics game with full mod support is incredibly exciting.īrice also commented on the game in the "Art Style Demonstration" video, saying it's "an RPG/Sim set in a magic school, something like Stardew Valley meets Harry Potter." That's probably where the Spellbound name is going to land, given the magical theme. "The first is a turn based strategy game, a more modern spiritual successor to Advance Wars that retains some of the pixel charm," Brice told me. He confirmed that the tactics game shown above and the RPG-style video linked below are indeed two different games. Update: After Brice tweeted again saying "Chucklefish is working on two new games and will continue to support Starbound," we reached out to him for clarification, and he gave us some further details on their upcoming projects.
