Planet start
Hello,
I think there should be some better new player experience.
I tried public test after some time not playing and I could not move my vehicle with only turbines as power generator because turbines doesn't work when grid is converted to ship/vehicle. If it is not a bug, it should be explained to a player that turbines work only when grid is a station. It took some time for me before realizing what went wrong.
Same with the new early kit block you can build it would be easier just to explain that it only accept stone and not having to look into production tab to find that for yourself.
I think a pop out window every time something new is build to exactly pin point how that block works would be awesome. Maybe something like in FrostPunk.
Also just an idea. It would be much more easier if a player could, for example in assembler, order specific items for a specific block he is going to build. For example I want to build 2x battery then I order in assembler items for 2x battery with just two clicks by clicking on a battery icon somewhere in there. It is tedious to look every time what and how many items you need for a certain block to build and often leads to overproducing some items, getting overloaded and just prolonging an already long start, at least on planets.
Anyway great work, thank you.
Looking forward for finished product!
I mostly agree with you. It took me a couple of minutes to figure out what does what and how, even that I have 1000+ hours in the game.
What would a new player do? :D
About the assembler tho, the large Assembler can do that order a block thing. The Basic Assembler doesn't have that function. I'm not sure if it should have it or not.
Like if the block based assembling is a high tier thing that would benefit the progression aspect, however if it would be available with the Basic Assembler that would benefit the new player experience better.

I think that be a good idea that both survival kit and basic assembler can queue "block" as it would outline what block they can do, for new player experience. Any block needing more advance component would not be listed in those.
