Thanks for the info.
Right now there is a floating center system to keep the game world close to the player and everything moves relative to that floating center. Unlike other games that do this simplification, in Adro all ships, planets, asteroids and so on actually exist in the world so moving everything around would cause a huge performance leak.
On top of that I create a second physics system workaround that is indirectly parented to the ship so players can walk inside without remaining behind as the game engine doesn't support that.
As for physics bugs don't worry, you can easily find plenty around the rover and when exiting/entering a ship.

I know, it is a problem but I was not able to solve it(tried few things some time ago) since the physics is strictly controlled by the engine(unity), I even had to write a lot of code around it to allow walking inside a moving ship.
For this reason, in last several updates I made all the ship operations doable from the inside so there would be no incentive to go outside. It is even dangerous to go outside at high speeds since Long range travels are designed to be done with boosters active so you would be left behind anyway because the ship constantly accelerates.
However at the end of the day it is still a bug and there are few solutions that are on my list: teleport the player inside if the game detects that you left the ship at a high speed, prevent the airlock from opening at higher speeds, inform the player about the risk, create a zone around the ship where you are still stuck to the ship(and move/rotate with it) even if you are in clear space(however it would be hard to do with no gameplay benefits).

F1: habilitar el modo de depuración
F2: modo dios (el modo de depuración debe estar habilitado)
F3: menú creativo (el modo de depuración debe estar habilitado)
F4: inicia el barco por completo (el modo de depuración debe estar habilitado)
El resto de los comandos creativos se muestran en la configuración de teclas (opciones/combinaciones de teclas/depuración).

Hola, las traducciones aún no están implementadas pero están en la hoja de ruta. Vi a algunos youtubers usar un programa que traduce un juego de Unity reemplazando recursos (no puedo encontrar el clip en este momento).

Hi, translations aren't yet implemented but are on the roadmap. I saw some youtubers use a program that translates a Unity game by replacing assets (can't find the clip at the moment).
I can't find the tag you are mentioning. There's only Lan, ad-hoc and server for multiplayer options. I tagged Adro as lan and server based. I don't think 2 players can play Adro on same computer. You can run the game 2 times(you need to change the player id from Data/settings) but only one player can play at a time so I guess it's possible but weird.
Hi,
- there is a tutorial where you learn the basics
- lights can be started from electronics console, personal flashlight hotkey is L
- bullet simbols mean that by pressing F you take water from the tank and put in bottle or put the bullets in the gatling gun.
- if you press the big left/right arrow in airlock screen it cycles automatically(closes one door, depressurize then open the other)
- tutorial explains G is for jetpack
- I usually play in weekend, if you want to join (more on discord)
I usually post weekly updates in DIscord if you want to keep track of the development, I also post early development builds there. https://discord.gg/WsqnqH5
Glad you liked it, on discord we have channels where people can find extra crewmen to manage the ship with. https://discord.gg/WsqnqH5
There are multiple systems that you have to start up in order to have the ship operational,
Power up the 4 consoles(yellow button on each one),
-from propulsion console power the thrusters, boosters, airlocks and doors.
-from electronics console power up antennas and screens,
-from tactical console power up weapons when you need them,
-you can also power up reactors, turbines, solar panels and generators from energy console but you need to build these blocks first
There is a key bind that starts all the systems for debug purposes or if you can't be bothered with the procedures: press F1 to activate debug mode then F4 to power up all ship systems.
Yes, there is a lot to do and in the last 5 years Adro evolved a lot. The low poly and heavy optimizations allow it to run on 300-400 fps on my laptop and I still have a lot more that I can optimize. If you like the control panels(consoles) now you just wait to see how they will improve in the next update(3 new consoles). Cheers!
I have no plans to expand the game to mobile/consoles, at least for the close future.
From what I can see most modern games run at 1-2 fps on that integrated gpu. Did you try the lowest settings? There are other things you can try in order to improve the fps like to start the game with a different rendering library( start the exe from cmd with parameters-force-d3d11
or -force-glcore or -force-glcore32
)
