Lone Survivor asteroid question.

[xxxaaaxxx]

I can't find asteroids or i cant see them there is no option in options for asteroid view distance (or is there? if it is please tell me) what can i do

[casualsailor]

You set the asteroid density when the map is created. After that there is no menu option to change it.

But I just created a Lone Survivor map to test.

Asteroid density was set to normal and view distance the default 15km.

And here you can see some asteroids close to the base and out in space.

Thanks for help! it helped me alot

Just remember that if you screw up the creation of a map and then create a bunch of stuff you don't have to abandon your creations.

You can create blueprints of each of your grids and then create a new map and paste them into existance.

Let us know if you need help doing that.

how do i take it as a blueprint? in a survival mode?

[casualsailor]

Place your crosshairs on any grid and press <ctrl+b> This will create a new blueprint of the grid and open the Blueprints menu.

To bring up the Blueprints menu once you have made a blueprint just press F10.

Then you can copy it to the clipboard and paste it into your new world. (You'll need to activate Creative Tools by pressing <alt-f10> in Survival).

Thank you for all your help!

Here is the wiki. It will answer a lot of questions about individual blocks.

https://spaceengineerswiki.com/Main_Page

Here is probably the most up-to-date set of tutorials outside the game. He has lots and lots of additional videos.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GypMw7ZdLIo&list=PLfMGCUepUcNwOJ0CXvVwtH9FMlCdwzj-s

And finally, F1 will bring up the help screen in-game and KSH has improved this considerably.

But don't hesitate to ask questions here. The only dumb question is the one you don't ask. This game has a rather steep learning curve and small issues can frustrate you needlessly.

My friend and i just made worlds 3 seperate times and the asteroids aren't there like they should be. All 3 worlds were lone survivor with high and normal density. Infinite world size and 100km.
They just aren't spawning on world creation.

[casualsailor]

Could you publish one of the worlds to the workshop and then post a link to it here? I could take a look and perhaps help you find the problem.

If this is the one I am thinking of, only 2 asteroids spawned. Both with Magnesium and Uranium. Nothing else and no other asteroids. Thanks for the help.

EDIT:
Also I think the view setting was 30km but I could be wrong.

[casualsailor]

Ok. For some reason I'm unable to reset the view distance.

I dropped a ship in and took off in a random direction and found 3 additional asteroids in quick succession. You can plug in those coordinates and verify it for yourself. So there are asteroids but they do not appear until you are vary close.

GPS:casualsailor #3:27006.13:6256.06:-15306.79:

I've always left the view distance at the default 15km. I'm not sure why it gets set to custom for a 100km world. But there does seem to be an issue when the asteroids first spawn. I'm not sure if it is related to the view distance or not.

Try another new world, leave it infinite:normal and default 15km.

[TK421]

I haven't played the game in quite a while but my friend streams it once in a while and he first noticed the problem with the default settings, on a world he created. So we both tried creating with the same result. Thanks a lot, I'll give that a try and see what happens.

[TK421]

Still not spawning asteroids. Lone Survivor is just broke for me.

Also, I started a new game on the Solar system map. Unchecked delete respawn ships (check this twice to make sure it was unchecked) and loaded up the game. While I was out of my ship collecting ore, the respawn ship disappeared and left me stranded in my space suit.

So I went back, started another Lone Survivor this time with Experimental turned off, same thing again. 0 asteroids. I give up.

I think is something with multiplayer, i create on red ship, lone survivor and easy start with online and no asteroids, i create one offline and i see the asteroids, i save it, and when load and change it to multiplayer asteroids dissapear

Hi Guys!
If you want to help the Devs on this = Go to the new Portal > https://support.keenswh.com/

There are some reports about missing asteroids with Dev comments in the new Bug reports section so maybe have a look in there before reporting and hit the "I have the same bug" button.
