Wheels... Freakin' won't stop! NO BRAKES!!!

[Annonymous]

Oh, Nellie, the car won't stop! We're gonna CRAAAASHHH!!!!
*BOOM!!*

This is Modern Space Engineers. Can build Nuclear Power plants that fit in the trunk of your car, but we can't make brakes that actually STOP the freakin' car.

*rolls eyes*


So. Looking back through previous posts is kinda pointless, as everything is changing. So, the 'Safety Lock' feature I read about.... doesn't seem to exist anymore?

And Brakes don't actually work.. So, any suggestions on how to park a car and put on the brakes so it doesn't wander off?

P is the parking brake. If it still slides up the wheel friction :)

[Annonymous]

pfft.

Deleted the game. too freakin' frustrating to try anything on a planet.

Might do something with asteroids, but never going dirt-side again

either p or space bar will stop your rover

I did come across a one-off bug the other day with brakes.

I pasted in a blueprint & for some reason, no matter what I did, neither the hand-brake (P), nor the footbrake (Numpad 0) had any effect.
Entering the control panel & toggling the hand-brake via the cockpit settings didn't work either. The wheel brakes stayed off, even though the "hand-brake" box was checked in the cockpit. The only way to lock the brakes was to do it from the individual wheel settings in CP.

Only this one build had the problem. Pasted other stuff in to test & every other build I tried was fine. I never did figure out what caused it - something to do with the update it seems.

I did find a fix though. Deleted the cockpit & placed a new one and both hand-brake and foot-brake worked fine after that.

Whaa, whaa, whaa, I want it now. I shouldn't have to think or even try very hard.. just give me what I want or I'll delete the game and cry about it. It's tooooo hard!

Cockpit can set a control for handbrake. Engage when parked, disengage when you want to move.

ah, the joys of infantile insults being tossed about, unfiltered.

Homie, grow up, and come back after learning how to be more mature and contribute helpful comments.

Or at the least, learn to shut up and keep those thoughts to yourself. They have no place in discussion forums where people are trying to get a little help from others - differing perspectives are good things, as someone may see a solution (or part of one) you didn't think of.

The rest of you, thanks. I may try those after the frustration fit calms down.

You rage quit the game and uninstalled because you couldn't figure out brakes then took extra time to come here and vent in a new thread made just to vent about how you quit the game. You might want to read your own quoted post here and take some of your own advice. Or at least learn to control your emotions a little better.

Honestly its a shame to see you uninstalled the game. For ANYONE ELSE frustrated with planets but interested in learning, check out my reply in his previous rant.

Seriously buddy, get help. That's my advice now.

I deleted the SAVEGAME, you knuckleheads.

I didn't say I uninstalled it.

Meanwhile, at the adult table while the kiddies engage in flame-wars....
