cryopods dont work and ore detectors are useless

Cj Vellow shared this bug 3 years ago
Won't Fix

what the title says ore detectors need a super buff cause they are useless and do not even work at the intended range most of the time i am looking right at a fucking ore vein and it does not pick it up even though I am about 50 m away i gotta get to like 30 sometimes for it to work on a small grid why is that? i have it cranked full as anyone would so don't even try and say is it at full range cause it still doesn't work right at full range honestly the ore detectors should be like 250 m small grid and 1k for large to even be legible to use and cryopods always kill me when i log off and back on the next day with full power and 50k ice hooked up so maybe we can start fixing things? idk sounds like a good idea to me i see so many of these issues from way back like 2015 and its still a problem can you guys do something please? every problem I have seems to be still existing in 2021 why don't you guys fix anything? are you a dead company now? I just don't understand do you need help? where is the maintenance at all your servers also suck at next to nothing for pcu so you cant build anything and 16 player cap is just embarrassing maybe its time to use a better engine? cause everything is very sub par or terrible to say the least its an ambitious game very cool ideas but done very very very very very wrong especially with what we have available today with our technology it should not be as hard as you are making it seem I think you guys are just lazy trying to make it seem harder than it is... overall I love the game and the idea of it... I just wish i could find some improvements over the last 6 years because it is so behind everything else in the world of gaming when it shouldn't be its a space game. how bout spend more time on bugs and fuck ups instead of more content for awhile... Thats my 2 cents Thank you for reading my rant I am angry but I do not hate you guys sorry for being very blunt but it is my nature xD


edit: my cpu is an intel core I7-9750h 2.6 GHz 16G ram 64 bit solid state drive too so these issues shouldn't be existent it makes no sense please fix the ore detectors first cryopods can wait as i can just put my items in my ship every log off period cause i always die with full oxygen and power in a cryopod

Hello, Cj Vellow,

thanks for reaching us with your issues.

Regarding the ore detector - I tested it and found no issue that you are experiencing. If anything at all my ore detector was detecting ore veins on greater distances. It is true though that the GPS marker is "jumping" when you get closer.

When higher/further than ~32,8 m the point where the ore is the marker "jumps" slightly so it is detecting approximate place where the ore is. When closer than 32,8 m it will get more precise and thus the "jump" of the marker. In my case, the detection of ore was up to 100m even when set to 50m.

That is correct behavior on both sides because update of ore detector is not every frame so old GPS points are deleted not right after they are out of range.

If you still think that there is something wrong going on on your side, can you please do a video of the broken behavior? I would greatly appreciate it.

About your suggestion about enlarging the are of detection, if you insist, please open feedback thread about it.

As for cryopods - I tested it for decent time today but was not able to observe anything special.

Can you share more info? Where and when did this happen? Did you play SP (probably not, right? :) ), or on Lobby MP, DS or using public server (which one?)? Was it just some one time thing, or is it going for longer period of time now? Can you tell how long? It would be good starting point, to know in what part of the game you are experiencing this issue.

Are you able to share a save file with me or at least the blueprint on the base/ship that you are using when logged off?

Thanks in advance for reply covering the information I asked and for the files/blueprint.

Kind Regards
