    The TQRF would probably deploy to a small camp and provide relief supplies to a small group of survivors at a time before falling back. If they came under fire, they'd either take the supplies or, if they were cut off, burn what supplies they had left before escaping. No, they won't take on a vastly larger raider force unless one of them had a bounty or something.

    They wouldn't be trucking supplies in. Imagine a small detachment of the US Army in Haiti, bringing a truck or two of water and food before retreating.

    I'd see people racing for airdriops like in rust.

    You could wait for the scorched biome release in 1.0. In nightly its looking pretty rad. Less building required to make it look good.

    Will we need to back up our saved characters for 1.0 release?

    Backup items for the drawables. Since they'll be gone in 1.0, also for any code you are using that you are hard-pressed to do again because it was properly fine-tuned. But characters maybe will be messed up. Cant tell for sure until it hits but if you want to be safe, do it so you can later access it with starcheat.

    EDIT:

    When 1.0 launches and I have confirmed my own custom items based off the new code will still work. I will make a guide and post it on the forums.

    Totally unrelated to this topic,

    But I copied my player file and exported the JSON from starcheat. Am I good?

    As I (am pretty sure I) said, I am waiting for that, that's the only thing holding me back from beginning right now

    Yes. JSON contains all your items together so its like a stash. But less ordered. :)

    But back on-topic now. If anyone has any more questions please send me a PM.

    I might have missed that, I read the first post and then I wanted to say my piece to give some input. But I've been to one in nightly after I got it working and the scorched biome looks pretty solid.

    Ya, I've been to one too. They have a great set of blocks, landscape, and background for a wrecked city covered in sand. Now on a different but related topic, what do you think about the story from what I've said so far? I made a big flow chart of the whole plan but I'm not releasing that until I get some official helpers

    Pretty good, interested in reviewing your flow chart too if you're okay in making some adjustments based off my feedback or not. Remains feedback after all :)

    Havent received any private conversation.

    Eh.. not really, havent seen any of the accompanied outfits or the power line poles to be spawnable yet. So.. no.. not really. Starbounder says it will replace the arid biome completely.

    Ya, whatever you want really, they should probably have at least one of each type though (like at least one pistol, one shotgun, one rifle, and one sniper rifle)

    Made two already. One wooden, more like a sci-fi hunting rifle, and another military looking sniper.

    I'm actually pretty proud of what I've made.
