I initially went with Spacebar's Yamato-esque consoles but later decided to look for something else, so in the meantime I filled the place with standard control seats until I found something better. With the adoption of the new Console block family I can finally announce that my ship project is "COMPLETELY VANILLA".
@@Zer0sLegion In fact, the functions they have added are for Xbox and PlayStation users, because they cannot use scripts like on PC, and the scripts have a greater variety of functions than the vanilla blocks.
I haven't been playing recently bc of life,, but god I love SE so much, this game has come so far like I'm STILL impressed that they added planets and moons.
i wonder if you could perform counter intelligence operations by hooking one of these up to a programing block and programing it to use a timer block between multiple relays to scan ALL channels.
The reason the "Claim NPC Grid" doesn't show up is because all the NPC grids need to be deleted so the NPC grids can spawn with that option, because if you don't delete all the NPC ships you will never see the new option because they were around before the update, so you have to force the NPC grids to spawn with the new features. I had the same issue until i deleted all the NPC ships and when they respawned they had the option to claim there Grid straight after.
Would be cool if cokpits and steering consoles would have option of custom keybinding and mouse sterring added to actions like movement of specific rotors/hinges and pistons.
@@Zer0sLegionWell, I've been following the game even before the planets update, and it was long criticized for having a bad initial player experience, which is actually improving a lot in recent years. Instead of focusing on stuff that is interesting to implement, they focus more on the player experience. It's certainly a good thing, game developers mature and improve the game in places where it lacked for years.
The first one is literally electronic warfare Have 1 on every frequency and set to enemy grids so when your in range if any enemy with these things, you can activate their random features
I was initially disappointed with how little was added after so long since the last update, but small improvements they've added along with the main stuff is really nice still
The Truss pack is awesome, especially with there being small blocks. Best game feature honestly is the temporary box. Days of catastrophic failure when cargo blocks break is a thing of the past.
Hi, regarding the last part (related to controlling a ship like in Star Trek), can't you use a remote controller while manning any of those console stations?
lol what is a "wifi company"? Are you talking about just connecting to a regular ISP, or internet service provider, using IEEE 802.11 instead of ethernet?
@@Zer0sLegion which issues? Wifi issues? I apologize, I don't intend to seem obtuse, we may just have different intuitions and priors, but aren't wifi issues a client side problem? Like if your toilet is clogged, you don't call the water utility. Your ISP is responsible for delivering the utility to your house (gateway device). But after that, isn't it your own responsibility? What router do you have, maybe I can help.
You dont need to smash anything. You can see the status of your jump drives by "Fancy status Displays V2" or "Automatic LCDs2" Both are scripts and they do a lot more than show you the status of your jump drives.
I cant wait to really get useage out of the relay. In theory, if you use timer blocks as "Logic Flip Flops" you can make a signal multiplexer, and get far more than "100" channels out of a relay. What i need that many channels for? no clue. Ill have to make a problem to fit the solution just to say i did it
I hope they expand them further. I would like to have Doors, Ladders, Air vents, button panels and LCD screens that fit snug into that same inset wall shape. I know that's asking a lot but the blocks to me, along with the corridors set a new standard I'd like the next round of cosmetic additions to match.
I love that space engineers has been consistently been releasing new blocks that make it so that we have more to build with and new function, ive bought every dlc because they are genuinely beautiful and i never feel like the break the game to not have
I can see a use case for allowing signals from everyone; if you have a station that you want to act as a hub for multiple factions there could be a number of actions you want anyone to be able to perform such as opening a docking bay.
Th one person which is the reason why i like space engineers has just posted a video, and was unseen since 6 month, ngl i though you stopped space engineers and i am too braindead to go see twitch for some reason ... nice seeing you again !
God I love the new broadcast controller. I was able to do all of that with scripts before, but just like in Minecraft using commands feels just worse than using the vanilla blocks. I already experimented with sending digital signals via the relay and it works amazing. Currently working on an automated connector assignment system, that tells approaching drones where the, can land. (Useful if you have more drones than connectors)
the accept signals from everyone would allow for automated docking control information. Cargo ship approaches a trade station, they send signal, stations automatically relays information on which docking ports are available based on what's connected or not.
New to space engineers I really wanna use these new blocks to make combiner elements to builds but I'm still working on the auto docking/connecting lol
It would be cool that programming would be more accessible and even having the capability to use camera for artificial vision. Custom seeking missiles would be very common. Also being able to see cameras on the displays would be very useful as well
The relay blocks are 100% the best addition. The uses are extensive. trigger hanger bay's from your ship, activate a return home script if you die with a ship that doesn't have a spawn point or its been damaged, you can get drone reinforcements from multiple base locations now, just so much can be done.
I tried the new doors with the ducts too, hopefully Keen will add that... Also I've noticed something that I don't think anyone has touched on, the in-game music & the music from say a Jukebox doesn't run with the same option in the menu. I've always hated how if I wanted to use the Jukebox, I'd have to listen to it with the normal background music overlapping but I think Keen fixed that🤔👍
That wifi blocks is great as outpost defence tower to alert you when enemy approaching without their antenna turned on. Instead of stealthy approaching you until they're 2km close.
They need to add the control grid option for the wireless controller so we can much quicker control certain grids rather than have to dig through menus to find it
I'm only new to the game and not gotten up to a jump drive yet but can you not link a event controller to a jump drive and a light or the new message block to tell you when it at 100%?? I was hoping you could.
Neat idea. I have something like that with Railguns and the event controller to tell me they're recharged and ready but it looks like that's a bit redundant now after the update.
I am gonna use this gladly. Thanks. This is gonna be so fun! Other than having new ways for others to kill me faster and easier than they already can...
Haaa finally an update video that does not only make a superficial description of the block but explain somewhat their functions. EXCEPT ONE : Please test the Claim NPC grid, because it does not work as you think.
Also the new block they teased it's called "(ProductionBlock) Assembler" Like i mean no offense to Keen but they did a poor job at blurring out the words. It can be easily read next time they need to black box the words so people can't make the name of the block straight away!.
For some bizarre reason I feel strongly compelled to like and subscribe after watching this video. Too bad I already did so now I can't scratch that itch..
What is your favourite new block or feature from the update? Let me know!
I like the new corridor blocks with floor alot. Enables new compact large grid ship and base designs :)
The Console blocks, no contest.

I really like the truss blocks
Can’t really pick only one. The glass corridor looked handy.
Corridor, bay and truss will really improve compactness of designs.
Welcom back to TH-cam
Thanks 🙂
I like how keen has been adding updates that allow people to do things that you could only do with scripts before
Yeah, it's way more convenient to use the blocks than scripts.
@@Zer0sLegion In fact, the functions they have added are for Xbox and PlayStation users, because they cannot use scripts like on PC, and the scripts have a greater variety of functions than the vanilla blocks.
@@juanfranciscoozunapulido3708 Also servers where Scripting is disabled to prevent people using the function maliciously.
Servers don't always like allowing scripts either so even PC players don't always have them.
Even so, many of these blocks are way more simple to learn and use than messing with scripts@@juanfranciscoozunapulido3708
I haven't been playing recently bc of life,, but god I love SE so much, this game has come so far like I'm STILL impressed that they added planets and moons.
That was a while ago now😅
Can't wait to tinker around with the action relay block! I currently have a multi-level elevator that would certainly be improved with this block
Truss blocks look awesome, waiting for the Starmer blocks next!
i wonder if you could perform counter intelligence operations by hooking one of these up to a programing block and programing it to use a timer block between multiple relays to scan ALL channels.
I make a special *disassembler* specifically for the spawn tools, it's recycling ig
Appreciate your videos duder. Top tier content all around.
Glad you enjoy it!

The narrow corridor is a nice addition but I feel they need an L shape version for corners.
True, I was thinking that when I was looking at them.
Would be cool if cokpits and steering consoles would have option of custom keybinding and mouse sterring added to actions like movement of specific rotors/hinges and pistons.
There's a mod for that call mechanical keybinds but I would love it as a vanilla feature.
That concept block looks like an assembler, considering the window on the right side and the mech arms within.
It is an assembler, I'll do a video on it soon.
I wonder what's going on at Keen, they've been greatly improving the game lately!
They've been working on the game since it released 1.0 on steam, just the things peoples want have changed over time.

A lot of this is making way for the next update.
If channel 69 is not the most used channel, I will be very disappointed in all of you.
The Truss pack is awesome, especially with there being small blocks. Best game feature honestly is the temporary box. Days of catastrophic failure when cargo blocks break is a thing of the past.
I was expecting Quick Start to function like a "resume most recent save" I feel like that would make more sense to have on the main menu.
Isn't there still the "continue" option we've had for years?
@gamerwolf-ne1yl not on the main menu
There's an option to load the latest save, I use it all the time when I play.
It would be nice if the add an actual boss to defeat or something
Next update😉

@@Zer0sLegion rs? 👀👀👀
Hi, regarding the last part (related to controlling a ship like in Star Trek), can't you use a remote controller while manning any of those console stations?
On the ones with seats, yeah, but it's not the same.
Could in theory dock a action relay could you use it like an emp and disable thrusters and guns
Only if they had an action relay on their ship that allowed that.
