Lol I almost "ragequit" (I was like "dam i'm gonna have to do it all again) after first death not realizing that my character remembers what happened. (I didn't read the log and was playing normally from start) I guess I will still have to do it all again but seeing that it's faster is better ig. xd Anyway I noticed that they still scavenge even though they already learned where the water is. Maybe "fix" that. :)
Yeah, the scavenging was an oversight more than a bug. Pretty sure you're the first, maybe second person to comment on it. I will be aiming to correct it soon :)
I'm in love with this game! The way you integrated the progression through rebirths with the lore, from new texts adressing having done things before to grouping tasks together to make it easier. This is genuinely so well designed, you don't often see that. Hats off
When trying to stop just before the completion of "Disconnect Rover and Leave" in Laurion, it instead completes the "Disconnect Rover Charger", and nearly-completes "Leave In Rover".
And once I reconnected the Rover Charger...
Thankfully, this bug isn't gamebreaking at all, cuz you can just Disconnect Rover Charger again to "unbug" this action and complete it
That's more a lack of a feature than a bug. Right clicking a combined action completes all actions except for travel actions and the final action. And combined actions are currently only completable once per loop, so if you complete one action in it, it won't be readded until you loop. I do plan to upgrade combined actions to support this, but it won't be a bugfix, it'll be a big update.
if you're in a situation where you need to grind experience, it's more than likely that there's an alternative somewhere that doesn't require experience to be effective
Install the generator at Talos. Head to Larion. Take a single power cell from the rover. Use the cell to power up Larion. Stock up on water bottles from the Rover Purifier inside of Larion, as well as Ration Packs. The single power cell will give you more than enough time to get 5. Make sure to turn off auto-use water bottles. While the water bottles are generating, go outside and pick up the fuel cells for the generator. Once you're fully stocked, return to Talos and stock up on water pouches and food items inside.
Now you turn on water bottles and turn off water pouches, then head to the dam. Pick up the water bottles and glacier samples from the crates. Unless this is your first time picking up the crates, it should be a net positive water accumulation, especially if you have unlocked the combined action for them. Then, just head straight to Astrape.
It might take a cycle or two to get to Astrape with this setup, but after a couple cycles, especially once you unlock the Dam>Astrape combined action, it's faster than stopping at Santorini instead.
most things you don't really need experience, and the attempts you've already had before should already be enough whenever it is useful
if you're in a situation where you need to grind experience, it's more than likely that there's an alternative somewhere that doesn't require experience
It was planned to be an idle game when I first made it, but I removed the idle tag after v0.2 because it became obvious that it wasn't going that direction anymore.
there's probably a bug, grouped actions bypass requirements, like when you get installing of solar panels on your rover grouped up, you don't need the mount for them anymore, it still installs them
That's not a combined action bug, it's just a bug with the specific action outside Talos (the one outside Laurion works fine). But thank you for the report.
Love this game, have been playing since v0.3, minor bug: sometimes, if you hover over the "play" button of an action, then scroll, the box describing the action, time taken, etc will stick to the cursor, and will persist when hovering over other actions. This can be fixed by hovering back over the action then off, but if you leave and reenter the area (through loops or just traveling) the box will stay there until you restart the tab.
Ahh, I've been looking for that tooltip bug for a while. People occasionally report it, but never know what caused it to get stuck in the first place. Thanks, and glad you're enjoying the game!

Genuinely one of the best games I've ever played in this genre!! I can hardly wait for the next update!
These updates have been amazing new content, keep up the great work
I don't know why but this is giving me MOTAS (Mystery of Time and Space) vibes, which is awesome

OK
See ya in the next major content upgrade :)
how do you get to astrap with the shortcut
if i put the water purifier on i run out of power before i can reach
if i put the generator on i run out of water before i can reach it
Use generator.
Talos > Dam > Satori (possible after learning Talos > Larion > Dam > Satori).
Satori > Astrape > Dam (grind Astrape - Dam back and forth).
So the shortcut is useless for now because by the time you can take it you have finished the game.
if you're in a situation where you need to grind experience, it's more than likely that there's an alternative somewhere that doesn't require experience to be effective
If you haven't finished Larion yet, it might help bridge that gap to do so.
Install the generator at Talos. Head to Larion. Take a single power cell from the rover. Use the cell to power up Larion. Stock up on water bottles from the Rover Purifier inside of Larion, as well as Ration Packs. The single power cell will give you more than enough time to get 5.

thank you ill try that later
something i think this game could really use
a way to loop attempts
just repeat previous attempt over and over to grind up experience on certain tasks
most things you don't really need experience, and the attempts you've already had before should already be enough whenever it is useful
if you're in a situation where you need to grind experience, it's more than likely that there's an alternative somewhere that doesn't require experience
Try using other methods that are available i only grinded water damn part 2 times to get there other things i only followed the flow
it is an idle game letting it ru n idle for hours is kinda the way they are suppose to be played

fair enough

I believe you can also open the PDA to fix it, that worked for me the only time it happened
whatever the issue was, it seems to have been fixed. I'm no longer having the scroll issue.
