Hello everybody!

I'm working on my new project called Starground, which started out of a desire to make a sandbox game to play with my friends.

It's a combo of automation and dungeoning, so you can build a factory and collect resources on the main planet, but can build a machine in order to go battle enemies in dungeons or trade with shopkeepers in the space hub.

The game has full multiplayer support, and has a ton of community powered translations into all sorts of languages. I've been making devlogs and streaming my development of the game on both Twitch and YouTube, which anyone is welcome to check out.

The game's page is publicly visible with a playable demo that anyone can try out now. I plan on releasing it this year.

Thanks!

I'm using StaticBody2D nodes for them and using a raycast to check for any conveyor ahead of them. If the next conveyor's inventory is empty, then it moves it's current item into the next one

Always happy to answer other questions about their functionality!

gosh im in love with this game, i played the demo for 2 hours now and its amazing, coming from playing factorio this game sure is giving the same vibes off of it, one thing that i dont like is collectors tend to be insufficient when getting materials, you gotta depend on the randomness and get lucky that some minerals or materials get spawned in the range of the collector

Hey awesome that's great to hear. I am currently working on a machine that will let you spawn in more resources, which should help with the randomness issue later on
