No Edit Button at programmable Terminal

[Jim Dollar]

Hallo Guys,
i cant do any programming Job in survival mode at a new world.

There is no Edit button at all.
There is also no Recompile Button.

I have Energy and a timer.

I believe the Programmable Block is considered an "experimental feature." This means that it may not be included in the released version of the game or it may simply be decorative.

To use the Programmable Block as it was originally intended you'll need to activate "Experimental Mode" under the Game | Options. But this will likely lead to performance issues.

Thanks for your reply.

I activated experimental mode in the options menu and loaded the save game, but there is also no edit button to do some scripts :(

I'm not sure what you are doing wrong. I enabled "Experimental Mode" and create a new Empty World.

Then pasted in a battery and programmable block and I was able to click Edit and Compile.

First try to reproduce what I did. Create a new Empty world and paste in a battery and programmable block and see if it has the "edit" button.

If not, then check Options | Experimental Features and ensure it is enabled.

Some worlds, like the Star System map turn this feature off by default upon creation. So you may need to re-enable it after the world is created.

Probably the easiest way to tell if your world has "experimental features" enabled is to click Edit and see if you have the Advanced or Mods buttons. If so, then EFs are turned on. If not then they are disabled. There will also be a red box in the upper portion of the screen when you first log into the world.

As for the one on the lander, it may be necessary to grind it down and recreate it. That is just a guess.

May be bugged world so publish your world to the Workshop and paste the item link in here.

I will fix it for you.

On top of enabling experimental mode, did you also go into the advanced world settings and enable the "In-game scripting" setting? You can't use scripts if you don't also have it enabled.

[Dan2D3D]

Oh! Yes, TwitchyJ says right, there are 2 options to enable now for the PB.

Already figured out, but thanks anyway
