In all honesty, I find AI content isn't even that good and often remarkably lazy. Even if it *resembles* the real thing. It's only ever a copy or a facimil. IMO people only use it to attempt to do things that they have not and would rather not learn the skills to do. Just had to say my piece, have a great day!

wait the comments i was responding to were deleted?? crazy timing

From what I understand, the majority of generative AI apps are trained on stolen data, and user input is often used to further train the AI (that's what the mandatory "Do you agree to our terms?" and "Pick the better response!" are for). I'm not worried about it 'replacing' me; I refuse to use it both on ethical grounds and because I do not need it. I don't need 'help' from something that's constantly wrong. I can spot errors by myself. In fact, I like coding because it's a fun mental exercise, like a puzzle. Where's the fun if I throw every problem at ChatGPT or whatever and blindly copy-paste its output instead of trying to solve the 'puzzle' myself? I'd rather shoot myself than use AI.

username WTF LOL
The Caretaker 20 Jun @ 8:33am 
hey thanks for the update. also im not sure why people hate AI so much sense if people are the coders and the Ai is just helping them and not doing it for them?
The Caretaker 20 Jun @ 8:31am 
LOL :O

Reverted Swim Physics for Frackin' Universe seems to be no longer available? Found out cause an error on my server, just thought you should be aware since I use your mod as well.

@The Caretaker I'd rather shoot myself than use AI.
The Caretaker 16 Jun @ 7:18am 
This is a touch up on my previous comment.the starbound community isnt going to grow sense the game has no advertisement or popularity with new people .people here need to work together here sense there is only so many people to interact with in this community. its disapointing that there is conflict in the modding community
The Caretaker 16 Jun @ 7:12am 
also why is the starbound content when i scroll down and look the Community posted content like 25 % furry art?
The Caretaker 16 Jun @ 7:09am 
also the community should Use AI for modding. it would be a game changer most likely.
The Caretaker 16 Jun @ 7:08am 
they should work with the community. FU could be the main mod if it was more friendly with other modders.
The Caretaker 16 Jun @ 7:06am 
hey also the starbound community is rather small. so i dont see what the goal is when it comes to making FU the main starbound mod. pushing people away and or agitating the community with stealing doesnt seem like a longterm good idea. it clearly isnt financial or notoriety oriented sense starbound is a small and dead game being kept alive by the community. the only reason its alive bacause its easy to modify and code a game like this compared to alot of other games.like lets be honest this game isnt going to be as popular as terraria or minecraft. i do like this game alot but the people who platformed it cuttlefish or whoever controlls them dont care to make this game more popular
The Caretaker 16 Jun @ 6:49am 
Im not going to use this for now sense the mod fix link doesn't work right now. when i reinstalled starbound recently the mod from the link didn't download from the workshop so my guess is its gone or doesnt connect to it ??
Leonard 2 Jun @ 3:52pm 
The link to the mod that disables FU's copy doesn't seem to work anymore.
[SUB] WIZ 27 May @ 7:54am 
you could create a mod to remove items after death, its working principle is quite simple, but it would give a completely different approach to the game, if all items from the inventory were completely removed after death, it would create a positive circulation of weapons and armor, which would equalize the balance of resources and items in large modpacks

The swim boost augment from Project Irisil slows down swimming when used with this mod.
Silver Sokolova  [author] 11 Mar @ 3:44pm 
@The Caretaker
FU has always been stealing mods, sprites, music, and probably more. Its creator isn't much of a coder himself (hence the poor quality of code he's contributed to FU and is part of why FU is to laggy), and he wants Frackin Universe to be THE go-to Starbound mod. There's a Reddit thread called something like "Frackin Universe Controversies Gathered In One Post" that shows a lot, but not all, of the things they've done.
The Caretaker 11 Mar @ 1:10pm 
if so thats actually disapointing
The Caretaker 11 Mar @ 1:10pm 
so FU probably has stolen code from other mods i assume right?
The Caretaker 11 Mar @ 1:10pm 
also i fixed the issue with the Q&A nice advice
The Caretaker 11 Mar @ 1:08pm 
im actually curious
The Caretaker 11 Mar @ 1:08pm 
what did the Fu dev do ?
martingolding96 11 Mar @ 1:07pm 
Because the FU Dev is a wanker I once had an issue with the FU blood giving the green cube item forgot the name and rather than trying to help he just declared his mod is perfect and not the issue.
The Caretaker 11 Mar @ 1:05pm 
also wtf is up with all the furry races that people keap adding???
The Caretaker 11 Mar @ 1:04pm 
Why did FU steal the code?
The Caretaker 11 Mar @ 1:03pm 
for some reason i cant go below water idk if its this mod but i dont have any other mods. ill follow the Q & A
The Caretaker 11 Mar @ 12:57pm 
whats with the super speed while swiming
Hat Kid with an FN FAL 19 Nov, 2024 @ 5:03am 
baller mod.
TheTwilightDancer 27 Oct, 2024 @ 6:25am 
I'm getting the same thing. My character is swimming super duper fast now. And I've never used FU nor do I plan to. XD
❀♥.°Rocio°.♥❀ 4 Oct, 2024 @ 12:31pm 
You know, this explain a few things when i play with FU. Even witouth this mod, some times my characters was getting a super speed in swiming. Thanks for this!
Material Defender 1 Oct, 2024 @ 10:51am 
Oh yeah, that's also a thing, EPPs worn in the cosmetic slot do nothing.
Silver Sokolova  [author] 1 Oct, 2024 @ 7:15am 
are you wearing the epp in the equipment slot and not the cosmetic slot
Material Defender 1 Oct, 2024 @ 5:26am 
@♠ℜΘß♠๖ÿáĥèll™(H3LL) that shouldn't be a problem, unless your EPP wasn't designed for breathing underwater.

If it's an EPP added by a mod it's possible, but the vanilla ones (breathing, radiation, Heating, Cooling) all protect you from drowning. Although it is possible for a mod to remove the drowning protection, I don't know of any that would.
♠ℜΘß♠๖ÿáĥèll™(H3LL) 1 Oct, 2024 @ 2:15am 
this is my only mod and it seems to create an issue where I cant breath in water with my epp
Silver Sokolova  [author] 21 Aug, 2024 @ 12:28pm 
@Miha_metan no thank you. i might do the swimming on the top speed boost, but not the health thing
Miha_metan 21 Aug, 2024 @ 3:38am 
i have an idea for the mod: swimming on top of the water will be faster than swimming inside water, and if the player is too deep in water it will lose health if the player doesn't have armour. Simple yet realistic!
Silver Sokolova  [author] 5 Apr, 2024 @ 11:51am 
@Ruin Thank you, I may look into it sometime, sorry
🩸ℜ𝔲𝔦𝔫🩸 5 Apr, 2024 @ 2:17am 
The swimming augment doesn't seem to increase swim speed.
Silver Sokolova  [author] 26 Mar, 2024 @ 3:27pm 
@Lordgenesisshadow yes, it affects all of the vanilla ones, plus a few modded ones iirc
Lordgenesisshadow 26 Mar, 2024 @ 12:56pm 
This is going to make some planets a lot easier. Does it affect other liquids?
Silver Sokolova  [author] 26 Feb, 2024 @ 4:02pm 
no problem!! I'm glad you enjoy it, and I hope you enjoy the original content too!
Max Payne 26 Feb, 2024 @ 11:40am 
Thank you! Btw, currently trying out your Betabound and it's such a warm feeling to see some legacy content back)
Silver Sokolova  [author] 26 Feb, 2024 @ 10:47am 
@Max Payne most likely. this mod is safe to uninstall at any time, so feel free to try it!
Max Payne 26 Feb, 2024 @ 1:28am 
Hi, is it compatible with Supper's Combat Overhaul? That mod improves movement in water as well if I'm not mistaken.
Silver Sokolova  [author] 15 Oct, 2023 @ 2:40pm 
I think it increases but I haven't really tried. I've been letting Apple/Vulpine do the updates recently
Rnova2 15 Oct, 2023 @ 1:55pm 
I have a question about this mod, if your character has any swimming benefits (either due to a race trait, or by using a swimming augmentation), how does the character behave? Does it increase swimming speed? or does it shoot up like in vanilla?
Silver Sokolova  [author] 14 Oct, 2023 @ 10:10pm 
did you press space while in the water and not on the ground?
