3.6 Changes to Shattered Rings?

[Kiethoo]

New Game in the Beta, had a shattered ring empire spawn right next to me...
Took them out in a first contact war...
The Ring world sections that aren't usually available until later are both available with 0 Habitability. Instead they are now FULL of Blockers, most of them pretty cheap to fix and with some nice flavor.

[CrUsHeR]

If you start as Shattered Ring, you cannot settle these "objects"

[Kiethoo]

No no no I mean they changed them in the patch.
It looks like instead of "re"building them to use the 2 other rings, now they are able to be settled right away but have 0% habitability because of blockers.
THe new blockers have flavors like "Unstable Vacuum Fields, Shtorting Power Grids, Malfunctioning Reactor....
The each cost some alloys and credits to remove and very in price but also add back habitability.

[HappySack]

If you allow guaranteed habitable cheats then the other (one or two) ring segments will be habitable but will have blockers that reduce habitability up to zero until cleared.

[Kiethoo]

Ok you guys arent getting what the ♥♥♥♥ im saying so hang on....SCREENSHOTS incoming.

So again,

My alien next door neighbors had the shattered ring start origin.
I crushed them but noticed instead of Sections D and B being "rebuildable" like reactivating a gateway with credits and ...was it 10k alloy?

Now instead they have 0% habitability and can be settled right away like a Tomb World can.....but they have ZERO District Space and have a ton of new blocker types that when repaired add habitability back or district space back.
They Each Cost Alloy/Credits to remove/fix. Similar to Relic Worlds (which is what my Origin is)

[HappySack]

Yeah that's what I said except I didn't know they also limited districts, that's new to me.

[Kiethoo]

I like the new flavor texts and the change is pretty nice. Will be good for players who wanna play like a SUUUUUPER TALL Shattered Ring Empire as now they can occupy the other ring sections faster.

Why they would add some new flavor text for Remenants.
I love my Relic Homeworld start too much to play anything else.

[CrUsHeR]

Try sending a colony ship from the colonization planner. It doesn't allow you to build it on these ring sections.

This is just a beta bug.

[Kiethoo]

It let me colonize it.
weather its intended or not I dunno.
I removed some blockers and its quickly becoming just as usable as the starter ring.

[Lord Poodle Moth]

Its intended, clear tile blockers to get additional districts... and habitability

[CrUsHeR]

Just start a new game with Shattered Ring


It always says " (X) we currently have no valid route to this planet" when trying to colonize


Probably you have some mods installed allowing this

[CrUsHeR]

Also here's the screenshot

See the tooltip about not being able to colonize.

Instead the two other sections show up as repairable in the megastructure menu on the right, as usual.

And the capital is repaired over the planetary decision (as usual)

[Kiethoo]

I was able to colonize both at 0%

The tooltip's wrong. Once you have the necessary resources, the error message goes away.

The ring world can be colonized immediately, and you do need to colonize them at 0 Habitability, because you can't clear the blockers before you have at least started establishing a colony there.
