Terraria General - /tg/

Asking again from last thread, but is there something wrong with tmodloader servers? Can't seem to join any.

>>170239934
Which ones? Are you forwarding the right ports and have everything allowed in the firewall etc? Do you have the exact same mods? Can't think of anything else.

>>170240451
My friend's hosting the server, forwarded the ports, and we're using the same mods. For some reason the game gets stuck at connecting.

Ignore the crappy colors please, but the right fuel tank material (copper) is the only one that doesn't look like utter shit, right? Is there anything more smooth looking but still obviously metal? Left and middle are stone slab and palladium column, they don't really work.

Also, if I want pipes connecting them they have to be spaced 2 spaces, because the goddamn dynasty wood doesn't turn into a horizontal pipe when put between two coppers.

Do these confetti cannons look more like cannons or exhausts? I meant to put them on top of the engine and blow smoke out of them, but unfortunately they can't be closer together than this, and when they're far apart like that they look more like cannons to me so maybe I'll just use ordinary pipes.

The Corruption, the generic evil force is ALWAYS purple and I am a man who loves tropes and cliches. Its disturbing yet comfy at the same time but its probobly just nostilga Eaters are cute compared to the shit in the Crimson too, so there is that.

Its pretty lose though, Crimson has its own merits, items are by far a lot more useful. Metroid reference for its boss, and its a LOT creepier.

>>170247921
Who/what is the crimson boss anyway?

>>170248656
Brain of cuthulu, fights exactly like Phantoon from Super Metroid. They even look alike.

Is this where the starbound crew hangs out as well?

Left fuel tank support or right tank support?

Can't figure out how to make a lower set of "clips" that looks good.

>>170251509
I prefer the left one, but I don't know how those look in real life.

Would you consider creating a new, non-expert world and setting it to hardmode through TEdit to make farming bosses easier cheating? Did this twice to get the drops for Mothron and the saucer because they wrecked me on my expert world.

>>170254935
My God, you are such a shitter. But go ahead and do whatever you want. It's a singleplayer game after all.

They look like that normally. You can't place furniture on top of sloped or halved platforms. The beam is a Rich Mahogany Fence.

Why is it so hard to place things on item frames/weapon racks?

>>170355709
What do you mean? I've never had any problem placing anything in them.

>>170355771
Maybe it's a TShock thing. They fall off immediately after you place them on the rack. It usually takes multiple tries. I've found it's more reliable if you place the item in your hotbar and do it from there but it's still pretty bad.

>>170356013
Yes, it is a TShock thing. TShock is garbage.

>>170356129
Gee anon what's your beef with TShock, it's great for building. That's the only problem I've found with it.

Don't worry, you'll find more, and more, and more. Use terrariapatcher if you want to build.

>>170356992
Well I've been using it for years to build, though just by myself. I'll check out terrariapatcher though.

>>170357520
You can combine both of them to get the best experience. I really can't live without terrariapatcher's teleport to cursor. It's so damn good for mobility when building stuff.

Does anyone have any examples of steampunk computers and other delicate machinery? I'm doing a command panel for my vehicle in a really tiny space, maybe I should just put a steampunk piano and some shit on it and call it a day, it has to fit into something like 5x5.

Fuck, I've been using dressers all the time

>>170446219
Yeah, steampunk piano and some walls to simulate a screen is what I've always done for computers.
For the walls, I used confetti walls painted white or black, I don't remember.

>>170446363
I'm pretty sure you can make that even better by using a thinner platform that continues the sink platform (almost) perfectly. And of course by putting a background between the elements.

Literally what I just did, need to fix the shit around it though.


I saw a pretty decent one with a bunch of switches, like a 4x8 switchboard and a bigger screen, but it was really huge.

The hell, it didn't capture correctly.

What the actual fuck? Why is that so damn blurry?

>>170448168

Solar Eruption or Terra Blade against the Moon Man?

It's a tablecloth

>>170451730
I decided to change from magic to melee on the last leg of my journey and it's pretty fun though.

>>170452493
Oh I get that, it looks very nice, but I don't understand how it looks different in the first pic?

>>170452825
Look at the bottom edge of the platforms.

>>170453302
Oh Jesus Christ I'm bad at explaining things, I see that it *is* different, but I don't understand how it's possible for it to look different in two images if it's the same thing on both.

>>170453547
Ah, I get you now. I've heard the Capture tool is a bit wonky sometimes, but I had someone else try it and ti looked normal. I had a bunch of mods running so maybe that interfered with it.

Update, it has moving gears that can't be seen on a screenshot. Still looks too much like a piano than whatever else it's supposed to be, goddamnit.

>>170455468
It looks pretty good for a computer imo.

This is all the space I have for the interior, I'll move the computer to the left below the other grey pipe, what else can I put in it? There will be some pipes going up and down, but I have no idea what else to make.

Also, is the left flying turret better than the other two?

Also 2, what are some good "pilot chairs", this one looks like shit.

>>170474689
Maybe a shadow painted glass chair

>>170475208
Thanks, painted it brown and it's not too horrible, I might go with the dynasty chair and some platform under it though, depending on what else ends up in the "cockpit".

Btw, is it still possible to have some holes in housing for it to still be suitable?

I tried making a hole border (just 1 space for the neat separating line effect) between the glass and the blocks below the glass and suddenly it's not suitable housing anymore. I thought there could be some amount of holes in the wall? Or was that in some previous version and it's not like that anymore?

>>170475930
Nevermind apparently it was one hole too many, you can make like 4-5 then after that it's not valid anymore.

Perhaps this is too ambitious.
Plan is to build a separate "interior" version of this and connect it with a teleporter. It'll be a storage area.

Looks good to me, I would maybe add a row of decorations somewhere above or below the "window" floor (maybe to replace the busiest/most cluttered rows of timber structure), some of those houses have really elaborate wood carvings and whatnot.

>>170486374
You get stuff like this on them for example.

>>170486374
Hmm, maybe a row of some furniture painted brown would achieve a nice effect most likely some kind of work bench - I'm a fan of the Spooky variant. Thanks for the suggestion.
