Devil's Advocate here, nowhere in the game does it explicitly state "Single Player" :V

You have Start Game, Join Game, Options, and Quit. That's it.

I finally found enough Floran scans, but I think(hope) my Floran boss fight bugged out. It sat motionless, doing nothing other than breaking or unbreaking its shell for most of the fight, then finally started dropping spawns when it was nearly dead.

I'm really disappointed that they reduced techs down to: a weak and unneeded combat mobility option, a few variants of double jumping, and a morph ball (which only matters for purists who don't mod to allow digging in dungeons). Hopefully someone will mod in some interesting options. In the mean time, I'll amuse myself by seeing how many fluffy space raptors I can house in my ship.

There's a mod that restores the old dash functionality, and another one that just buffs it a bit.

[scriver]

What, are those the only options now? I assumed I'd still be able to find other techs like bubble jump, or whatever we used to have, in the wild.

I'm totally serious. It's guaranteed.

Spoiler: Location (click to show/hide)

After the tentacles attack, go to the second dirt-blocked passageway. Before you dig it out, jump onto the dirt pile and from there jump onto the top of the left side of the tube. Keep going until you reach the wall and a torn Protectorate banner, and underneath that is some torn cloth. Right click on it or use the matter manipulator and you turn the torn cloth into a cape.

Just to make sure, everyone knows about the flower headwear item, right? That's also on Earth.

I don't know about it?

[Sirus]

The flower is located near that big, gnarly tree before the graduation ceremony. It's purple-ish. You can interact with it like a chest or crop.

Was inspired to draw a sketch, in tribute to yet another game that's become lost to me.

(to clarify, I used to typically have a two-handed and a single-handed item in the main L/R slots of the old hotbar, like a spear and a dagger. I've tried, but actually can't play the game with the new hotbar. Also most if not all of the race-specific craftable weapons also seem to be gone, according to forum posts)

Man, is the new hotbar that bad? I really find it alright, not perfect, maybe, but I'm not a connoisseur of hotbars, two blocks for every section, which correspond to the left and right mouse buttons, what made the original hotbar better?

[forsaken1111]

I had no problems with the hotbar, but I wasn't burdened with a 'how it used to be' chip on my shoulder either

[Sirus]

How exactly were you able to keep both a two-handed and a one-handed weapon in the left-right slots on the old hotbar? I remember two-handers taking up both slots.

They didn't take up both. You were still only able to wield either one two-handed or two one-handed items, but the main L/R slots allowed you to keep two-handed items in them. With a setup like that, you immediately had your 2-handed weapon out if you pressed the key for default items, but any 1-handed item on the hotbar was paired up with the 1-handed weapon in the R slot.

And it was fucking fantastic.

I can see how that would not work anymore with the special attacks for two handed weapons being bound to right click.

The only bad thing about playing a Floran is that you get an awful purple snake pet (like I need another) instead of a SUPER CUTIE KITTEH KITTEH

[Flying Dice]

They could always have taken the sane option and let people rebind their controls. Same deal with the techs, the double-tap to dash is moronic but it's even worse when you can't change it.

[Jiokuy]

My only grievance with hotbar, although it is pretty damning for me personally, is the four slots in the middle dedicated to Matter Manipulator. I primarily use my scroll wheel to navigate the hotbar, and the four extra unusable spaces in the middle suck. Since I don't want to look away when surprise combat happens, I have to set up everything around the fact that I can only really use three configurations at a time.

I really like the hotkeys for MM and functions, but the location in the middle makes it so for all intents and purposes I have two 3 slot hotbars not one 6 slot. It just really limits what I can put on my hotbar, and where I can put it. Otherwise I find myself flailing on the hotbar and or wasting valuable time looking at the bar in combat.

Also using the number keys isn't practical since that uses the same hand that is needed to dodge enemies.
