Switch?

[oz_0909]

Have you ever thought about moving this game to switch?

It is a great game so that it only goes out for one platform.

One major issue with this game is it can be heavy spec reliant the longer the game file you keep playing. I doubt most consoles can deal with the massive data build up as you keep playing the same game file.

Also, switch is a tablet, this doesn't help the situation.

Is there an official statement?

as neat as it'd be they'd have to work around a lot of problems their game poses. remember this isnt a system with a 2080ti and a 9900 i9 with 32 GB of top speed memory. its a finite deal which means they'd have to cater the game to the specs.

result, minecraft worlds are smaller, the bigger they get the crappier they run. same here, the more complex and numerous tasks your colony runs the slower it'll get.

1 packet of air for example, has 3 things its constantly tracking. path to destination, temp/heat exchange, germ count. the more of this kind of thing you've got going on the more of the CPU is being used to keep tracking these changes. multiply that by ever packet in your current world after about 200 cycles of building.

yeah switch aint happening without making the map very tiny, or some fundamental changes.

Unless it would be a seriously limited version of ONI, the switch wouldn't be able to handle the game.
As previous posters already said, it's not about graphics, but the sheer amount of calculations going on which even PC's can't handle without heavy lag after a while.
