New to Game Tutorials not working ?

[TSM [EGC]]

tried two so far no direction as to what i am supposed to do.

New here too. They are a freaking mess. Had to restart a few of them a couple times to complete them and two of them don't seem to be able to be finished.

You should be getting prompts and quest style checklists for the ones that work though.

i can't stand watching people waffle on in video's this lack of tutorials is firmly on the developer, to many game on steam are now like this, thanks for trying to help i will keep game as it was a gift, but i doubt i will play it though, I have reinstalled game as well nothing changed.

Yep, hard to make up a bad first impression. I hope the takeaway here for our Dev team is to recognize the importance of a doing good quality check BEFORE releasing it to the players (*cough* Icarus workflow *cough*). I'm sure they were in a rush to get those out-of-date tutorials out in time for the Steam sale and are not enjoying the rib punches from all the new customers like you who are not going to leave a favorable review after buying the game on sale.

Being a long time player, I submit you may want to set this aside for a few months while they work out all the new bugs that are introduced with their new game engine re-write they just completed. The game has provided long hours of enjoyable sandbox play for myself and others and once they get the game stable again I think you'll find a fresh start a bit more rewarding than you'll find it just now.

Hi!

I had issues with the tutorial as well.
I've only tried the first one multiple times.

After the initial greeting message, I've walked into the building and nothing happened.

Then I closed the game and uninstalled it through stream.
Library->Stationeers->Manage->Uninstall

Then I deleted the the game folders in:

Steam\steamapps\common\Stationeers
and
C:\Users\UserName\Documents\My Games\Stationeers

Then reinstalled the game.

Then I noticed it shows a red message on startup: "discord not open".
I closed the game and started discord, then restarted the game.

Then the tutorials were working and I was able to complete the first, second and third tutorial.

I haven't tried the rest yet.

Hope this helps someone.

Hi!

In the airlock tutorial, I get a red error message after placing down the pipes (after the active and passive vent part).

The red error message is:
"[EXCEPTION] nullreferenceexception: object reference not set to an instance of an object".

I'm at the part where I need to get the "Kit (Consoles)" from the crate, then build it in the highlighted position.

It's working. I'm able to continue the tutorial.

you should be able to ignore that and continue on placing the console

Hi!

Thanks. I was able to continue.

Now I'm at after the part where I had to turn on the Area Power Control and I got more red error messages:

"[EXCEPTION] argumentexception: enum underlying type and the object must be same type or object must be a string. type passing in was 'system.int32'; the enum underlying type was 'system.byte'.

Now I'm stuck at:
"As the room fills with atmosphere. your suit will register the external pressure and temperature change."

The console between the doors shows 101KPa.

I'm not sure how to continue now.

the devs on discord just announced they are fixing this tonight and will be patching soon. my advise is, if you get stuck, just move on to next tutorial for now. sorry you have to go through this.

Hello!
Thank you very much.

[Rocket]

The fix is live now, might need to restart steam or verify to force it to update.
