Hey irishyvan.jl,

I disabled the repair bay due to how much.... bloat it added in the mod itself.
Every item you "repaired" was actually a recipe that took <gun/armor> and gave you back <new and perfect durability of that gun/armor>.
With all the edits I've done to the og mod, maintaining that list was low on my to-do list.

I have plans to make it be a <small set> of "blank" recipes that actually goes into the equips survivors equipped items and sets their durability equal to max.

Is the repair bay still working? In the project x menu it's greyed out, and I've completed all the research. Do I need to hire a specific char to unlock it or something?

Awesome! Thanks for the great mod, Ark Builder

I've got 12 things to look into, rapid fire they are:
1. Robot attacks in px scenario (best mod should enable that kinda)
2. Colonist price review (the game is balanced around having below a dozen colonists, and I'm trying to implement a soft limit with these hiring prices)
3. No trade level 0 recipe
4. Fab matrix stuck locked (research and recipe)
5. Organ boxes bug
6. Beyond stranded compat
7. Supply/trade recipe tabs not showing up
8. GECC colony ship bug
9. Droid hiring bug
10. Discover same species with expedition trait
11. Cyber crystals stay locked
12. Medium px moon to offset the other moons (easy, ridiculous, and rip your base)

If I missed something lmk, as my attention is back into this mod

Hey all, just reviewed all the comments since my last reply. I'm still around and continue to improve this.

I've been spending my free dev time working on my newly released nest overhaul mod. Mainly so I can add new "nests" into this mod (like a Galactican police station, Consortium mining base, rebel guerrilla squad, etc...)

First off i wanted to say thank you! When Project-X was shut down i pretty much quit playing. The Vanilla definitely needs more content ;)

So the reason for my post, is that if i play ANY scenario other then the Project-X i get random monsters and robots...but when i play the Project X scenario i only get monsters. Did i miss something, or is there a way to get robots? They are a great source of free weapons, parts and occasionally $$$.

Thank you for all you do!

When I started the game, I chose to begin with all characters at 0 skills to unlock all achievements. I started with the Project X scenario. However, I can't level up the Trading skill for any of my characters because none of them have a Trading skill of at least 2. Now the game is stuck. Is there a solution for this? I've tried transferring a character with a high Trading skill from the Contact menu, but because I chose the 'start with 0 skills' option at the beginning, that character's skills are reset to zero as well.Oddly, you can't perform any actions on the Trading Console if your Trading skill is below 2. If there were an action that required a Trading skill of 0, you could do that to level up the character, but there isn't. The minimum requirement is 2 Trading skill. Has anyone managed to solve this problem?

I don't think you need both. It's 1 GB so this is not just a couple of codelines fixing errors, but a whole copy including the fixes.
Really hope more fixes are coming, as I am trying out the mod right now, but reading the comment section makes me believe there's much more to repair.

oh OK i didn't' know this thanks for letting me know i try subscribing to the other project X also.

Do you have to have both Project X and the repair to get the mod to work ?

thought i got around the problem with the MOD as SAD says its a issue. but mostly once i enable it the game wont start so i have to unsubscribe refresh computer and do it all again was working but now still trying to get it to work again even i've done it twice today you said its a WIP please can you fix this issue SAD has with this MOD

Fabricator matrices research is blocked, requires 150k galacticoins and 10 trade script, i have 100s of them, and over 2m in coins, it just wont activate, even when bought from a passing ship its completely locked out including any research associated with fabricator matrices.

Some research options are being blocked by this mod, as is the ability to build fabricators. Are these issues going to be looked at and fixed in a future update, please?

played one game and saved it. today stranded wont even load and the only thing it can be is Project X was really enjoying it too.

Hiring new colonists costs 27-45 MILLION credits!!! Also whenever I craft a box of organs it disappears. I lost about 20 before I realised it. Run out of research to get one of my colonists to Intelligence 10 to unlock the Galactic Fabricator research. Plenty of that alien and cyber stuff, but useless without boxes of organs.

I played on desertum and the warning always turned on everyday in the morning... it became annoying and really need some advice to turn it off...

it seems there's a conflict between this mod and beyond stranded, but this mod was endorsed by beyond stranded mod thus this mod is compatible with beyond stranded... anyone know what's the conflict is and is the conflict can be ignored?

Can't seem to research matter fabricator even though I have the items? Do I need a special research desk (it shows up in the 'normal' one)

Hi, there is no "trade" tab in the trading console. I researched "Cheaper electronics", which has in its description that it unlocks the "trade" tab below "supply". But I don't see it and I also dont see "supply" anywhere. Could someone let me know if its maybe a bug in my specific savegame or if it is a problem with the mod itself? Thank you!

Another issue... I can't hire droids....When I click on "Hire Near-Sentient Droid" from the hiring menu, it just closes and nothing happens.

In addition the GECC Colony Ships not locking into orbit to trade if asked from the Comms Relay, I am unable to research the Fabricator Matrixes despite having all the necessary resources. Can you shed any light on what else I need to do or is this a bug? Thank you. :)

Further, GECC Colony Ships do not lock orbit to trade if asked from the Comms Relay...

Also, the Natural Curiosity perk seems to be a bit bugged. I've had the same species be "discovered" over a dozen times now... yet I am still missing plants that are not on the map I am on...

@Ark Builder, I don't know if I am missing something... but I can't seem to plant cyber crystals. I've got survivors at Farming 10 and have researched the Cyber Crystal Farm but its showing greyed out on the Plants tab and not showing up on farm plots if I try and swap a planted plot.

its barely working for me. Idk what to do, cause when i building relay nothing happend

There are 3 PX moons, Astral, Delta and Chaos. Normally, I'd expect an easy, medium and hard choice, but it seems here there are 2 easy/lightweight and 1 insanely chaotic. Which is the "medium" difficulty moon? Thanks for a great mod.

i feel so stupid i thought i had built everything. Thanks for the quick reply and thanks for keeping the mod alive.

@Smasher2.0 there are no translations of the mod yet unfortunately

@jay7720 There are new research columns to the far right that slowly unlock the PX buildings/recipes. You need to research & build a signal relay to progress past a few researches

How do you unlock the normal px stuff now? the power and turrets etc. i got two years in and cant work it out :/

è disponibile anche in italiano?

The tech tree can be found in the balance & planning google sheet [docs.google.com] I use.

TL:DR
Trade Receipts are used to purchase Official Trade tech
(I need to add a way to spend these outside of tech purchases tbh)
Govt Secrets are used to purchase Illegal Trade tech
- There is a large selection of things to spend Govt Secrets on (And it's upgrade BP)
-- Requires Black Market or Cyber gear research completed

I will check to see about the BP safe not showing up and other places to store them.

ThePhantom, the Landing Pad should be in the construction menu -> PX -> Relay; not in it's normal place.

@Ark, i finally broke my game, pathing issues, mats started spawning everywhere, i had 41 survivors and and over 100 droids. So now I'm starting a new game lol, ill have less survivors.

It seems i was missing some research, from the pictures in the description I was missing most of the alien turrets. I also never found blueprints or any use really for the higher tier hacking mats, i was wondering if there was a road map for the research somewhere, or at least some good hints kinda thing.

Is there any way to put the trade agreements and Galactic Government Secrets in the Galactican safe? the Blueprints safe isn't coming up for me even after I researched it.

hi guys, i have been playing this game for a while and i just find out about this mods, the game is amazing, but i have just one single glitch that i cant see to get rid off, the landing area, i can not get it to appear, i already have the towers and the pod but i cant just get the landing area button, thanks guys you rock.

@Golfballtaucher, I have not touched breakthroughs, but I do know this mod makes some available via the PX scenario

@JoeBloe, I do not have much experience with very old and very large saves
My initial thoughts are that the game is most likely at it's "best" managing less than 4 survivors.

That is on top of the "special" reactions I have added in both the PXR and ILU mods that take up precious runtime resources. I will need to think/dig into how to make things a little cleaner

@Lord Helmchen, yes I agree that is an odd decision. I will make open a bug at the repo to review all storage containers and make them feel worth it for their physical length/width/height

What is the recommended way to place the galactic devices taller than the standard building level height? The Large Construction Storage has a stack size of 10 for e.g. Metal Alloys. This makes it much less attractive to me compared to standard stockpiles. Maybe set the stack size to 100 for everything inside this storage? Thank you, for maintaining this mod, Ark!

Actually it just started working on its own. I do have another issu,I i run a powerful gaming PC, wont list specs, but i can run any new game at 4k with 60 FPS+ np. I'm 15 years into my current run,PX scenario, 25 survivors, and a very overkill base. Would love to post pics. I cant figure out whats slowing my game down, I doubt its the size of my base, given that PX is literally made to have dozens of survivors. I had the same issue earlier in this run and had to reduce my farming plots and rely on trade ships for fruits/veggies, which is fine, and that fixed the issue, farms are gone, issue is back. My game will be unplayable at some point at this rate of growth lol. I was hoping you might have some advice or would like to know if anyone else is encountering this issue.

Side note, I personally love the work you're doing, Base game got tooooo easy.

Hey Joe,

I don't think I disabled the random traders showing up without prompting, but I will double check

You should be able to go into the communication array and select from the "local" ships nearby and ask them to trade in the latest update

hey sorry if this is in the wrong place, i cant seem to add a message in the bug report section. I havent seen any trade ships since this new update. ive played a full year almost and still nothing. Thanks in advance!

I cant get Breakthroughs is that normal? :)

Thank you for your work ser

just wanted to say "Thank you!" for your work on this mod, i have been using the original for along time and wast till just about an hour ago i found this even existed so the less broken P-X is awesome.

Thanks!.
Good question. Not sure. It is good to see what you can trade later even if you can't do so right away; gives a direction/aim.

I'll clean up the tooltips in a quick pass over them,

Would it be clearer if the recipes that take higher skill levels be hidden until you have a colonist with a high trade skill?

I can set that in the next update, but that would make newer players not immediately know how valuable trading can be

So I noticed that someone had mentioned the issue of all trading starting at least above skill level 2 below, and it turns out that Zackarie can trade wood and stone despite the tooltip saying that the minimum is 2. So all good at this point really

First of all, thanks for the great work! I have Zackarie and he is supposed to be a super trader, but he is at level 1 in trading and therefore I cannot train him up with the trading station as the lowest possible trade is level 2. Am I missing something? Perhaps there are easier trading tasks later? Thanks

Alright, thanks for the info.

@KuroRed, the signal relay research should appear in the "Other" tech column after you have either:

1. Researched basic Electricity
2. Found a Scrap Electronic from scavenging
3. Construction Basics is researched

Then it should appear in the Science Construction Menu

There are public excel docs where I do the balance by #'s and define conceptually how I make the systems:
SAD PXR [docs.google.com]
SAD ILU [docs.google.com]

Note The actual #'s may be different due to hotfixes/changes as I wrote it into the mod

Another player mentioned making a wiki to help.

Specifically about Background techs: Most are unlocked by keeping specific PXR colonists super happy.

Hello, is there a documentation for this mod to help with progression and details about some stuff? I am playing my my second playthrough with this mod and I don't understand what most of the "Background" research tab is about or how to unlock said researches. For some reason, I was able to unlock them in my first playthrough, but don't know how, now I can't seem to be able to.
Please help.
