OpenStarbound

This is a fork of Starbound. Contributions are welcome! You must own a copy of Starbound to use it. Base game assets are not provided for obvious reasons.

It is still work-in-progress. You can download the latest test build here.

Changes:

• You can now make .patch files that are just merged in. That's why the patch files in here are unusually simple.

• Some Lua functions like getters and setters for player identity values, but not every function from StarExtensions has been ported yet.

• Character swapping (rewrite from StarExtensions, currently command-only: /swap name case-insensitive, only substring required)

• Custom user input support with a keybindings menu (rewrite from StarExtensions)

• Positional Voice Chat that works on completely vanilla servers, uses Opus for crisp, HD audio (rewrite from StarExtensions)

  • Both menus are made available in the options menu in this fork rather than as a chat command.

• Multiple font support (switch fonts inline with ^font=name;, .ttf assets are auto-detected)

• World lightmap generation has been moved off the main thread

• Experimental changes to the storage of directives in memory to greatly reduce their impact on frametimes

  • Works well when extremely long directives are used for "vanilla multiplayer-compatible" creations, like generated clothing.

• Client-side tile placement prediction (rewrite from StarExtensions)

  • You can also resize the placement area of tiles on the fly.

• Support for placing foreground tiles with a custom collision type (rewrite from StarExtensions, requires OpenSB server)

  • Additionally, objects can be placed under non-solid foreground tiles.

• Some minor polish to UI
