Re: [OVERHAUL - USES HYPERSPACE] FTL: MULTIVERSE Version 3.12.3 + Hotfix [The ??? Update, Part 3]

Postby DDarkray » Tue Nov 03, 2020 3:08 pm

I’ve been playing with MV mod for a while, and so far I quite like it! However, the one thing that’s pretty annoying is when I land on an empty beacon, and I have to go through a long series of clicks to get to the “search for extra scraps“ button. It’s objectively better than the “do nothing” button (since there’s no downfall), but it takes like 10 clicks to get there.

It would be nice if this can be more streamlined. I would like that option in the first page and not have to manually select which crew member to do that task.

Glad you're enjoying the mod!
As for the scrapping thing, I'm not entirely sure how that would be changed to still fit the way the menu navigation works currently to be honest. However, we've been considering changing the option though to not just be free stuff, since it's a been unbalanced to just get free items every time you get an empty beacon.

Re: [OVERHAUL - USES HYPERSPACE] FTL: MULTIVERSE Version 4.0

Postby Mositron » Sat Nov 28, 2020 3:47 am

Thy hyperspeed travelling between the sectors seems kinda buggy!? You can select previous sectors in that menu for example.
Aloso the ancient sector quest bug (infinite loop with "crotch") is still there.

I also find a bug with the event where you can choose between three rewards and when you choose the extinguishers you get the fire suppression augment.
Anyway, i had only one augment at that time but the window where you need to drop one augment appears and i couldn´t get fire suppression augment into the second or third augment spot on my ship.
As i dragged them over the to the first augment place to switch them the augments changes positions, still can´t use the second or third augment place on my ship.
As soon as i switched the augment´s again (wanted to keep the automated reloader and vent the fire suppression) the reloader dissapears.
Sorry, a little bit hard to describe as a not native speaker :D

Great update anyway, love especially the explanations for the sectors and the "quest log".


Edit: As i am playing right now, i encountered the augment bug also with the event where i have to choose if i help the lost sun or the rocks. Got the Backup DNA bank as a reward and the same thing as mentioned above happened, maybe a general problem!?

Edit²: And again, got an augment and i cant install it on my ship as it dissapears if i want to drag it to the spot...

Augments are bugged because of hyperspace. Not that long ago (as of this post, like an hour or so) hyperspace released a patch for it, and Multiverse is about to release an update in a few moments.
