Outpost 1 & Outpost General / Re: List of all of the luxury items you can build with Light Industry?

The official strategy guide was pretty much Bruce Balfour's love letter to himself. It had some interesting points but... ultimately not terribly useful.

The embedded string tables show this for the UG Products:

Code: [Select]
1016, "Clothing"
1411, "Whoopee Cushions"
1412, "Bowling Shoes"
1413, "Golf Balls"
1414, "Salad Spurters"
1415, "Fuzzy Dice"
1416, "8-Track Tapes"
1417, "Croquet Mallets"
1418, "Neuromancer Games"
1419, "Laura Bow2 HintBks"
1420, "Wax Lips"
1421, "Beach Balls"
1422, "Squirting Flowers"
1423, "Chia Figurines"

For completeness, these are the strings for AG Factory:

Code: [Select]
1000, "Fuel Cells"
1001, "Repair Robots"
1002, "Air Robots"
1003, "Micro Robots"
1004, "Law Robots"
1005, "Humanoid Workers"
1006, "Road Materials"
1007, "Robot Spare parts"
1406, "Explorer"
1407, "Dozer"
1408, "Digger"
1409, "Miner"
1511, "Truck"

A fudge, I thought I replied to this. Probably forgot to hit post.

So I can't say for sure, but the biggest block for me right now is figuring out what the research screen itself should look like. UI/UX design is confounding to me... What I have now is either super kludgy (see Factory Production Window) or someone else designed it and I just made it functional (see factory production full screen UI and mine full screen ui).

That stated, a lot of the research implementation is already complete in the code -- it's why the Fusion Reactor and Solar Receiver Array structures are no longer available to build (until the appropriate research is completed).

So assuming I can figure out a basic idea of the research UI, it shouldn't take more than a few weeks to get it implemented and pushed out for release.

Outpost 1 & Outpost General / List of all of the luxury items you can build with Light Industry?

Does anyone have a list of all of the items? I know they're obviously an in-joke, almost like an Easter Egg, but I would like to see it again for reference. I know they include 8-track tapes, beach balls, chia figurines, fuzzy dice, neuromancer games, wax lips, and whoopee cushions.

Despite its comprehensiveness, the Official Strategy Guide doesn't actually mention the items.

That's a really good observation. There is no check in the code atm for whether or not there is storage for robots if an RCC is bulldozed. Not sure if that would cause stack/heap thrashing but it's definitely a clue!

Hello there,

The attachment contains another of those failed saves.

It might be the saving process, as i did not do much except bulldoze a few tiles.

Another assumption is because i bulldoze the robot command center and have about 5 dozers "deactivated somewhere" after bulldozing the robot command center. (due to not enough workforce)

Ran it on my development machine and... ... ew. This is a scary bug. Not sure how this was managed but the savegames you provided are extremely helpful!

If you're able to figure out the steps you used to get the game into the state that they're in (e.g., saving/loading, reloading, etc.), let me know. In the mean time I've got some bug hunting to do!

Ah so it just hangs, no error message? Huh. Will definitely look over this. I played a few games on a few different computers without issue so interested to see what's going on here :D


So in 1 11 game this is in the data:

Code: [Select]
<structure age="8" crime_rate="0" depth="1" direction="1" disabled_reason="0" forced_idle="false" idle_reason="0" integrity="95" pop0="2" pop1="0" state="1" type="18" x="53" y="96">
	<waste accumulated="966440236" overflow="-2147471807" />
</structure>

So interesting. This looks like a residence... and the overflow value... overflowed. The accumulated value is also very weird. Suspecting this is where I'm going to take a closer look.

Hello there,

Here are two save files.

1 10 is working
1 11 will crash upon pressing next turn.

Anyway, i reloaded save file 1 10 and played until turn 230, then it crashed again, refer to the crash screen picture.

It's in the AppData folder in your user directory. It's typically hidden by default. If you launch the game and click Continue, the file picker window will come up. There's a button at the top right that should open the folder for you. (see attached image). In my case it breaks because there's a space in my user name... will have to address that in the next patch.

As a note this is not currently working on macOS (will work on figuring that out).

Also if you are getting any error messages, screenshots of those would also be really helpful.

Finally there is a log that OPHD generates in its launch folder, it's called ophd.log, that could be useful too.

But yeah, it's weird that it's so unstable for you. I tried playing the game a few times on three different computers (my main development machine, my macbook pro and my mac mini) and haven't had any crashing.
