Trains and laser towers

Post by Pollo Infernale »

It's only a fast question.
In this new version (0.29 alpha) i can't remove the laser towers, how can i do it?
Now i resolved this problem SHOOTING them XD

Ps: Trains can only trasport the character? :(

Right now, yes.
But at least they don't want fuel for it.

0.2.9 is bugged hard, you can hardly play... I recomend downgrade to 0.2.8 till next stable realse.

And i want trains to be more usefull too, but it's alpha 0.3, you can't expect much from them.

2.9 is not sooo bugged, just that you cant remove some things, but you can shoot them with C

I probably don't understand how exactly should "C" be used.
I actually tried the "infinite-range mad man pickaxe attack" thing.
It never worked for me. Can you please brief me on the use? (perhaps to a PM, since it's off topic)

C allows you to shoot non-enemy entities (such as your own buildings. only real use that I know of is destroying trees and junk items (place in chest. shoot chest.))
otherwise when shooting (with space) you automatically aim at whatever enemy is closest to your cursor.
the infinite range attack was a bug (since fixed) that would allow you to attack anything with your pickaxe by aiming at the ground (close to your target) and holding c.

Aha, I was supposed to aim at the ground next to the target..
That explains it.

Yeah, I prefered just making my own sniper rifle and using it... needs a bit of tweaking to balance however.
