Starbound Megathread - Version 1.3.2

Why is everyone talking about wipes now?

This is why:

I haven't played since like 50 character wipes ago.

tell me when they stop wiping characters.

Odd, I've had my character since around December 19th and the only "wipe" I had was that one ship wipe everyone had.

Either I'm very lucky or I bought the game after all the full character wipes were had.

Actually, there have been only one or two character wipes.
This occurs when the game no longer supports the way the .player files are written out. Therefore, the game cannot read them and they cannot be seen in the character list.
You must have gotten the game or created a character after both of those wipes.

Did I miss something or has the wipe counter for starbound been one?

1 character wipe, 1 ship interior wipe

[.:FancyPants:.]

uh lesse
all mentions of resets in previous update posts

December 7th: "Coming in a few days (sorry for the delay!)"
"This update will probably require a character reset (I’m sorry! Beta :( )"

December 10th OR 11th: Frustrated Koala
"We’ve decided NOT to wipe characters or worlds. . . . We’d recommend starting a new character to assist with beta testing."

December 11th: Indignant Koala
"We aren’t wiping characters or worlds, but if you want to experience the proper balance
you should make a new character/worlds to play it on!"

December 16th: The future of Starbound
"Reduced Wipes: Working on a system to patch without requiring as many character wipes in the future. This will require one more wipe and that’s it."

December 23rd: Angry Koala
"Worlds/quests/ships were wiped this update, characters were not."

so that's

1 full wipe
2 suggested Character-Ship resets
1 mention of future reset reduction
1 partial Ship-World wipe

in that order chronologically.

Maybe the person who gifted it to you was banned?
should ask steam support if they can fix it.

[Legodude77]

Yeah you better talk to steam first and see if they can fix it, if not then go talk with the starbound guys.

Anyone know what you can do with Cacti?
It's a rare type of, er... "wood" that is found on desert planets with those huge green cactus trees.
