@gabrilend said in can't build mass extractors anymore: ... I'm confused, why is the context based template system better than the system I described? It seems like extra key-presses for... marginal at best gain. I'm assuming that I'm missing something. What else would you build atop a mass deposit than a mass extractor...? You can tab hovering over anything and it will do something. You can also hit tab when you're in a build preview (like a radar) and it will automagically turn it into a radar + pgens template so that it has adjacency bonus. The same applies to for example an extractor - if you want to build not just a (tech 2) extractor but also surround it with storages then it's a single tab away. You can see the number of options for your current context at the bottom of the screen. The Wikipedia that I linked also does a great job explaining it. The problem with the 'hover over to get a mass extractor' feature is that it was horribly inefficient from a performance* perspective. On top of that, when I used it myself, it would often trigger when I did not want it to. The context-based templates solution does not only fix those two issues. It also provides much more control and you can even mod it to add your own templates. In the end it is up to what you prefer. Therefore the UI mod exists.

Apparently, Firefox hates me. I had to switch my defaults over to Brave to get the login window over there and get in. After clearing the cache in Firefox it kept trying to connect to a 'server' on my local machine after the weblogin. Oh, well. At least I can play again now!

I've created new account and moved my files there. Everything works swell and dandy now, I think. I haven't actually played it yet but I'm able to log in and actually see the launcher. Thanks for your help mister, it has been greatly appreciated as I can now play the game.

I opened a ticket on discord

Same bug for a few months already. In my experience it got better recently through, not worse. The best way to not be fooled is to check whether number in queue has changed. It's not bugged.

@mostlostnoob Worked. Thankies.

Благодарю. Сработало. Я так делал, только через Uninstall в папке, оставалась папка "lib" и поверх нее устанавливал новый клиент, это не сработало. а сейчас через принудительное удаление все стало работать. Всех благ!

I fixed this by changing the game location to the correct file. Thanks for the suggestion @magge

thank you very much, it was the last mod I suspected of breaking my game

@giebmasse Have hosted a few games with 2024.6.1, and looks like the issue has been cleared up.

@sheikah Thanks ! this worked.

@morpex_38 this is a infrastructure structure issue when alot of stuff was moved to the new infrastructure. It's known

Is their a way to change the offline mode to online mode or does that not help?

In addition to that, finding ways to break things is significantly easier in general. When the DDoS attack started, it made the game unplayable for everyone. After all the back-end changes to counter it, at least the majority of players can play again. I know it is extremely frustrating when a connection drops. It would be helpful to follow MostLostNoob's guide to share some logs with us. This can help determine if your issue is not DDoS-related and ensure all information is available.
