Yeah I went legit thru all of these missions on one character.

For the next one I just spawned all the needed items and activated godmode for the missions :P

EDIT: I'm just going to leave this here... http://starbounditems.herokuapp.com/

I'm starting to feel very tired of this game, and I've only put around 20 hours in since the latest update.  First struggling to get past the Erchius horror, then grinding out the still rather massive amounts of materials to upgrade everything, and now desperately searching dozens of systems looking for items for the stupid quests.  This is very non-fun, and I am badly regretting my invested time.

I feel like this is the same feeling most folks have, and there's only been two people who've logged into my server in the past few days. It's becoming a pain to keep restarting it after crashes, and I don't think people are having fun with it. So I'm taking the server down! I've got lots of stuff to better spend my time on(like http://www.openpixeldungeon.com/). Maybe if people complain too much I'll put it back up, but for now it's down :(

I've really been wanting to play, but IRL is in the way :(

For end game content right now if you want to keep interest up you basically have to play with mods. Basically my system is, whenever chucklefish release a big update, I do a vanilla play-through to see progress than keep playing till I get bored (for this update it took about... 4 days) than delete character and universe files, comb through mods for the new version and install everything that looks interesting and relatively finished and isn't a blatant cheat.

Personally, I'm just waiting for the Avali race mod to get itself an Upbeat Giraffe makeover so I can faff around with my fuzzy space raptors.

Even with mods the endgame is dull. Basically all I ever did in the endgame was go on MP and look for someone to follow around and play music for.

I miss Terraria.

All I do when I get to "endgame" is allegedly try to build my base. Except I never actually manage to build anything. ::)

Well it seems like Starbound is desperate for attention right now as they are trying to make the community advertise for them.

Which would be a complaint if it wasn't so common. Even GoG (Good Old Games) has done this at one point.

But I think it is a bit early to be trying to create a third wave of buyers.

How so? I haven't heard much about Starbound lately, though then again I'm not really looking.

I would only like a FLUTE to get, then my game is perfect (...I only did 3 missions ._. I like the improvement though! However I can't grow trees in my ship anymore.)
Only got Durasteel armor and the like. I've been wondering where to find Solarium...

The last is the same as it's ever been. Get to top-tier planets, dig down.

Could I ask what the tiers of planets are? :-\

It seems to be Any Lush/Forest/Desert/Snow > Oceanic/Non-Air > Radioactive > Dangerously Cold > Dangerously Hot(?)
I'm unsure due to me still being stuck finding Solarium.

Basically, yes. In the vanilla game, all the hot ones are the most dangerous ones, and the ones hogging all the solarium.

With some mods, like Prismatic Stars, you might have the ores in other biomes as well.

Is there any way to get more tech cards before beating the first boss, or are you stuck with one? I chose poorly for my first tech...
