I was at F: 0.0 so I'm permanently passing out, I believe.) The game actually started to drop cheeseburgers from the sky on me, but for some reason I couldn't eat them even after using Alt + E or any other key combo I could think of. The burgers just disappeared 😢 I'm hoping my hunger will regenerate the next time I try the tutorial. Fingers crossed lol. If you have any tips or advice, I'm all ears man

    The burgers that suddenly appear from nowhere are hallucinations and will not replenish your hunger, indicating that your hunger is low. Instead, you have to eat real food items, like rations and burgers, etc. Some of which you can find around the base, or are brought daily by the drone. You can also buy food from the shop. I am unsure whether or not there is food in the tutorial level as I have not yet played the new tutorial.

    For Polarity, you need to stop the polarity line at a certain angle on the circle. Imagine there is an invisible notch somewhere around the circle, you need to find and point the spinning line at this invisible notch, when the line is close to pointing at this invisible notch, the yellow "Output Data" percentage will approach 100%, indicating you are pointing the line at the correct angle. You always need to set the offset's speed back to 0 because that stops the line from spinning. The higher the offset speed number, the faster the line spins. You can make the offset speed negative too to spin the line counter clockwise. If the line has spun all the way around the circle, and the Output Data percentage still isn't changing, try changing the Polarity using the "Change Polarity" button, which cycles between 3 modes: Left, Linear, and Right. The Change Polarity button is the very far left knob on the control panel. For Frequency, focus on making line as wavy as possible, also bringing its Output Data percentage to 100%. The Frequency dials also control the offset speed, which is limited between 0 and 1000. You need to find the number between 0 and 1000 that gets the Output Data percentage closest to 100% and stop it there, setting the offset speed to 0. I hope this helps.

    You must go row by row, completing the equation highlighted by the purple rectangle. You must select the correct number that the calculation would result in. For equations that would equal a number between 0-9, like 1+3 = 4, just press 4. If the result of the equation would equal 10 or greater, just take the 2nd digit of the result, like 7+5=12, just press 2. If the result of the equation would equal a negative number, ignore the negative sign and just select the number; like 3-5= -2, just press 2.

    I still don't understand the polarity. :/ I don't get how you pick where to stop the polarity, is it always at zero or like a specific angle..? I feel stupid but I don't get it, I've gotten waves for frequency, but I can't figure out how to get the percent to go up on polarity, feels like no matter where I set it or at what filter offset I get the percent never goes up. Also I know this is the old tutorial, but still like I don't see the polarity button in the video in the new one to switch between linear or whatever. I'm so confused lol. I tried searching the comments but I still don't get it. Id appreciate any tips anybody has. Also I like keep getting knocked down while I'm in the middle of the signal area while I'm trying to figure it out and it's very annoying and I don't understand why. This tutorial mode is incredibly frustrating It's just spamming you with knowledge instead of an actual natural tutorial. I get the game in general is complicated, but still. Sorry, I'm just ranting now.

    First make sure you have an active signal obtained from the coordinates computer. After the dishes rotate, the signal will show up on the downloading computer. Secondly, make sure you turn on the toggle buttons for the Frequency and Polarity, only then can you change their offsets. In this video they're blue buttons, but in the newer versions they changed appearance. They now appear as buttons with red glowing lights when off, and will changed to green when turned on.

  • @AlphaSatanOmega

    6 ай бұрын

    You need to scan a signal first to be able to download it. To scan a signal, use your arrow keys to move the crosshair throughout the star map. Press the Shift key to scan for signals, this will show you the direction and closeness from the crosshair of all available signals. You then must move your crosshair in the direction of one of these arrows until you find the signal, which is a small white circle that continuously ripples outwards a small distance. Place the center of the crosshair at the center of where this circle is originating from, then press the spacebar. This will ping the signal, after a moment, the text at the bottom may change to say something like "successful ping". There is a chance that the ping will fail. If the text says "error", then the signal is lost and you must repeat finding another signal to ping until it successfully pings. Only then, once the satellite dishes rotate into place, can you move on to the Downloading Computer.

    You need to return the speed value to 0. If the speed is not 0, that means it's moving and will continue to mode. If you're trying to reach 100%, you need to reverse the speed to a negative value to go backwards. Then when you're approaching 100%, set the speed back to 0 and repeat this process until you reach 100%.

    Make sure that the drives you are sending have a Green light, and not a red or yellow one. Only Green are send-able for points. Additionally, you must send the correct amount of drives of the requested level, detailed by the latest "Daily Task" email that you receive every day at midnight. For example, the daily task may ask for "3 drives of level 0", you will need to send at least 3 drives of Signal level 0 in your package. You also need to make sure you send your package with at least about 2 hours left before midnight, as it will take time for the drone to pickup and return the package. If you are too late, you will have failed the daily task and not receive the full amount of points for your package. Lastly, it should be noted that there are many flavour text emails that are sent alongside the confirmation of your package being received. One such one will say something along the lines of "There is no data on the drives". There is actually no problem with the drives you sent, and this can be ignored; This just implies an unsettling story element that somehow the drives lost their data while being sent.

    Since version 0.6.0, the controls have changed slightly. If the paper is on a surface, look at it and you can use your scroll wheel to scroll down to "Use", then press "E" to read it. If you are holding the paper in your hand, press right click to read it.

    Even with this guide, I simply can't get the hang of that signal downloading computer. The controls are so wonky for me and I just can't seem to wrap my head around even beginning to control that polarity and frequency filter. I click E and use my scroll wheel all over those knobs but the numbers always just jump all over the place with no rhyme or reason, and once that polarity spinny radar line starts spinning, I can't get it to stop or do anything I want it to do. The controls for this are so wonky. I can't even figure it out with all the tutorials in the world. And to make matters worse, now, when you hover your mouse over that panel, there's just this box that appears over the panel too click on and I can't even tell what knobs I'm clicking on. I'll have my mouse on one knob but it will seem to be adjusting the knob under or over it. The game is dimly lit and low textured, and my monitor isn't very bright and is rather dark as well. so that adds to the problem. And since there's no visual feedback on them, I can't tell at all what increments I'm adjusting by moving my mouse wheel. I really want to like this game.. but.. I can't seem to really understand how step two even works.

    The knobs are incremental with 3 different values. You increment or decrement the speed using these knobs. So if you hold e on the +5 knob for example, and scroll up twice, you will be at 10 speed. Therefore, you need to scroll down twice to go back to 0 speed. To go backwards, you'd scroll down from 0 speed to make the speed negative. With the polarity knob you simply have to press e on it, not hold it. It will switch between the 3 states. Every time you switch it, look back up at the spinning polarity filter, and look for if at a certain rotation, the "output data" % number is changing. If it goes all the way around and doesn't change, switch the polarity filter to the next option, and repeat. In the options menu, under the "Render" tab you can turn up the gamma, that should make it easier to see things. I do agree the box that appears over panels that they implemented in the latest update is quite annoying, as it extends past the bounds of the screen and moves around too much. I hope that I helped clarify some things.

    @@toxinketchup the frequency seems to have a variable range of what's considered close to the right value. Sometimes this range can be narrow, so you can quickly speed past it when you are increasing or decreasing your filter speed. Once you notice it jump, reset your speed to 0, then in smaller increments, set your speed to the opposite direction so you slowly approach the offset value.

Some of the recipes can be found in the Notebook found on the workbench, but others I believe need blueprints which can be found through exploration of the world.

    For Polarity, you need to stop the polarity line at a certain angle on the circle. Imagine there is an invisible notch somewhere around the circle, you need to find and point the spinning line at this invisible notch, when the line is close to pointing at this invisible notch, the yellow "Output Data" percentage will approach 100%, indicating you are pointing the line at the correct angle. You always need to set the offset's speed back to 0 because that stops the line from spinning. The higher the offset speed number, the faster the line spins. You can make the offset speed negative too to spin the line counter clockwise. If the line has spun all the way around the circle, and the Output Data percentage still isn't changing, try changing the Polarity using the "Change Polarity" button, which cycles between 3 modes: Left, Linear, and Right. The Change Polarity button is the very far left knob on the control panel. For Frequency, focus on making line as wavy as possible, also bringing its Output Data percentage to 100%. The Frequency dials also control the offset speed, which is limited between 0 and 1000. You need to find the number between 0 and 1000 that gets the Output Data percentage closest to 100% and stop it there, setting the offset speed to 0. I hope this helps.
