Postitive feedback and suggestions #1

First up, not an issue - I love the concept of the game, just wanted to give some positive feedback and make some suggestions:

Thanks for the feedback. Both of those are already in the works in one way or another and should be part of the next build I push out.

The bot list screen (shortcut key 'b' or press the bots button in the top bar) has been added in the just-released version: v2023-07-29.

SableDante commented 1 year ago

Cool, possible to add a stop command to the B screen for each bot? if I want to stop a particular bot to send back for upgrade I have to stop everything and wait for it all to stop before I can upgrade a single bot (this is with auto discovery and auto deliver on)

Probably abusing this, but also an express elevator or something every 10x, 20x or whatever level to make getting back to level 0 easier... currently at level 65 and its taking a looong time :D

Don't worry about abusing, the worst thing that will happen is I won't consider a suggestion :)

Queueing commands (eg: goto upgrade after the current task is done) is also on the todo list.

For faster travel, this already exists: equip at least one bot with an Interface, select any "transport down" and click "connect to L0". A bot will eventually make it there and create a link between that transport and the L0 "transport up", effectively teleporting your bots from L0 to any connected level. After enough completed manual interface tasks, you get automatic ones.

Possibly some way to auto pause exploration if a certain number/value of items still remain to be picked up?

I fell asleep and let the autoexplore go through about 80+ levels. And I am still only on level 45~ with the bot army looting and delivering after a day of clean up.... Slight cdo tendancies, Gotta collect all the loot before I start exploring more.

Omg, as you press Page up/Page down to change levels I had never clicked on a down elevator!!!!

Quick question, I am running into frame rate issues with the itch.io version (Yeah, I have a lot of robots!)

Where does the file get saved.. I see its user:// but I just can't find that file anywhere.

Thanks!

I've only looked in Chrome so far. It's stored in the per-domain indexeddb (developer tools -> application -> indexeddb). There might be ways to extract it from there and save it to an actual file, but I have not looked into it.

It might be easier to add a "export save" button somewhere in the game, I'll look into it.

That said, this is still a prototype, I'm keeping older saves in mind, but very soon some changes will make saves either not work or miss out on content.
