New Snow planet start...has the pentax and promethium mountain spikes been removed??
So far I can not find either of these resources up on mountains like it used to be. Is this Intentional by Eleon now in SP?

Hi cbltv1
Have you tried heading up to the farthest point up north way on your snow starter if possible, i tend to find a few radiation zones up that way which can have promethium rocks to break, you don't get loads' but it does come in handy, as to pentaxid, have you tried to scour the lake bottoms, this can be a good source for the pentaxid early game and on starter planets.

Other than what i have said and the mountains, maybe you could have a game that has glitched out.
Good luck finding some, hope this might have helped you secure some, even if it is only a little amount.

I suspect you just need to look for them.

However, I also imagine that it's possible that your game got glitched. What seed and planet size (and difficulty settings) did you use? (So some could try recreating your planet and seeing what is there.)

The game was started as soon as A12 public was released. And since there have been 2 updates after A12 public release, so yeah my game maybe borked. :P

It is necessary to start a new game after 12.6 due to backend changes.

Ok, but we're on 12.1 in the stable branch.

Also, before the original post was edited, I thought that it had stated that this was a fresh game start (two hours before that post was made). ((But, double checking the timestamps on the posts here, I am probably remembering something else...))

I have 2 games on the snow planet. One was started when A12 Public was released. The 2nd when the Patch for A12 Public was put out, making it 12.1.2954(?).

I have not been able to traverse the whole planet yet either as trying to keep food up is an every day challenge much less get a base built to not freeze or run out of bio fuel for the base and HV. :) So I only got to explore a couple of nearby mountain ranges.

@mark117h, good suggestions, I will see if I can get lucky. Thanks.

Fix Damaged Hoverbike, and you can find them in no time. Use woods/fibers to make biofuels for damaged hoverbike. I don't think all mountains have pentaxids.

All that is already done. :P ;) FYI, I have over 2500 hours into this game. :D I finally found 3 promethium spikes and a little spot that had 5 pentaxid spikes. Question now is do the Promethium spikes regrow like the pentaxid do? Once upon a time many alphas ago they used to do so.

I been finding them in the high mountains on snow planet.

Found pentaxid spikes in mountains, and blue prom stones (whatever), under water. But there been prom ore deposits too. Once you get a EVA mod for your suit, make a cheap sv and get into orbit, there is prom asteroid there as well.
