Quick Question Thread

Will Rusticyanin get a eukaryotic counterpart? It’s freaking annoying to use that instead of a ferroplast (unofficial name)!

The roadmap* mentions hydrogenase for 0.7

I’ve seen a few people discuss this idea (and I think it’s a pretty nice one!), but I’m not sure if it’s going to be added into the game any time soon, sadly. I found this post on the suggestions board proposing it, and I’ll make sure to quote Hyyryläinen’s response below. I hope this helps!

“The reason this originally wasn’t added because it didn’t add anything to the game design to have 2 parts that do the same thing, the other just being better once you unlock it with the nucleus. That’s why an eukaryotic version was not added when the rusticyanin was added. There’s really a strong reason to not add it, other than that there needs to be a reason for adding it.”

So the jury is still out for them adding ferroplasts.
Huh.
Edit: i found the CellCraft wiki, and it seems to be abandoned. Maybe we should help our fellow science game?
Here’s the link:

Will there be a process that uses the Pressure variable? If so, what will it be?

Ammonia is a compound cloud now but how would it look like if a planet has oceans that are, say, 50% ammonia and 50% water? Can ammonia based cells in mixed oceans have contractive vacuoles for maintaining a 100% ammonia cytoplasm? There are planets with hydrocarbon oceans

Can hydrocarbons act like glucose? There are bacteria that consume methane* and heavier hydrocarbons*. Petroleum doesn’t mix with water or ammonia. Can there be a hydrocarbon patch in the the patch map for planets with hydrocarbons floating on water/ammonia oceans?

I mean the abiotic hydrocarbons*

Isn’t cloning Thrive’s repository and building it in godot to get newest features like cheating to avoid becoming patreon for devbuilds?

Possibly. I dunno, because i haven’t done it yet, but i will once i get to school tomorrow!
:smiling_imp:

Why would it be? The point of open source is that anyone can get the source code, compile it, run the software, modify it, and if they are so inclined contribute back to the open source community by submitting their code changes back.

The only thing related to that that I’d object to would be if someone setup a “competitor” to the official DevBuilds by providing easy downloads for anyone to get very often updated compiled Thrive versions. Even if that happened I wouldn’t be super worried, only a bit worried. As that person would need to somehow fund the download bandwidth (depending on how they would host the files) and setup automated builds as if they did it manually, they’d eventually just get tired.

Oh boy! If hh says its fine, its fine! Time to -pirate- fork a copy of the game to see what juicy new content is in it!
(the pirate is supposed to be strikethrough but strikethrough doesnt work…)

strikethrough works just fine though when you know how to use the right markdown…

Thing is, i don’t…
Ah Belgium. Anyways…
forks the game but accidentally downloads a malware in the process HOLY CRAP!
computer explodes
Well, there goes half the annual school funding… Seinfeld Laugh Track - YouTube hey! That isn’t funny! :rage:

will eyes just make sight better or will you not have sight when not editing. will you get to modify how many hexagons are in your compound eyes?

Remember: the simple eye (like that of a human) has hexagons too, just on the inside (retina)

oh huh never knew that

Humans have simple eyes? I wouldn’t call humans eyes simple.

A simple eye is an eye made up of one large eye, rather than multiple smaller eyes like a compound eye.

No, a simple eye is an eye that doesn’t have a complex structure. Human eyes have a complex structure.

Oh. I forgot.
