Homing weapons will track the exact target (or block) that was under your crosshair when you fired the weapon.

How do CV missile launchers (medium and heavy swarm) work: Do the rockets track the target (seems to be so)? Do they target specific blocks (turrets, drives etc)? do they track blocks painted by target painter turrets?

pdf wth, my bad pda brief 3 is the hot ticket.. stupid spreadsheet work lingo

@Grabber - Thanks for that :) Must had been a recent change...

@Ashenator there has been a change you now have to use brief 3 to start the antenna mission

Thank you! Glad you enjoy it so far! Vermillion has done amazing work on the abandoned POIs.

BEST MOD EVER! and holy #*@$ The weapons enemies and bosses are wonderfully done, i recently finished an abandoned powerplant, and oh my GOD the lore!

Yup so glad they fixed that bug.

This Change is huge, i never used Micro Jump Drive, cuz my PC is to slow for restart every time

Reforged Eden 2 Beta has been updated to Build 35:
Main changes: Improvements to the micro jump drive.
See the Change Notes for details.

FYI - If you had started on another planet, you can still do the RG2 Story Missions, but you have to do a PDA command in the console, or have an admin run it for you if on a server.

PDA Brief 2 << Will give you the mission to find the broken antenna, and allow you to unlock the mission lines.

Thanks for the feedback, @Grabber, @raven_ff. I have decided to start a new save on Akua. It is such a fun game I'm sure I will enjoy another play through. And so fare not disappointed, great story line.

Each planet can have its own missions. The main story missions are available to play no matter what planet you started on (though you'd have to obviously GET to the objectives).
What you cannot do are each starting planet's individual, unique starting missions unless you started on there. For example currently the only RG2 story mission available is the Akua one (which you can also temporarily do on Omicron Roggery and Ningues).

awesome news @ravien_ff

I dont know if its recommended or not (it might bork a game save im not sure) but I did do the Reforged Eden 2 mission you get that goes to the colony, the ship, then the station and finished those and then Ive flown to Akua to do the starter mission there and started it manually and it worked. If anyone is brave to do that :)

@COWOC if you are on a story planet , think it tells you in the planet info panel of your map, you can type into the console panel "pda brief 3" without the quotes to start the story missions. Believe there is only one story planet in each starter system.

yeah it works on SP too as well as the teleporters :)

As of the game update earlier today you no longer have to restart the game to use the micro jump drive after changing playfields.

Try validating files in Steam. Otherwise you'll just have to wait for Steam to start working again.

HI I just get back from work and want to play this nice mod but when I look at my saved games I see on every saved game on location tab word "(*MISSING*) anyone know what happend?

@Madd
Palladium can be found in hostile territory (Zirax Kriel etc) mostly on Barren planets as well as some other moons. The Emperiopedia goes into greater detail on where to fine that and most other resources. Industrial cut diamonds are crafted in a universal constructor from raw uncut diamonds which can be bought from Talon quarries, or as an occasional byproduct of mining magnacite - again, the Emperiopedia should provide more options.

Just wanted to finish up with a thanks for making this awesome game so much better.

I have had a blast playing this scenario. The POI's, loot, and overall game play has been great. I got stuck on a late mission in vanilla and went to RE-2 for a what everyone said was a much need ed improvement to the base game. I agree this is way more fun however, I must have missed the part about having to start on a starting planet to go through the story line.
After escaping a difficult Random Start I made it 272-LY to the Delta system to start the story and after completing a couple POI's it said that there was nothing else to the story. I only found out after finding a 3 year old Red-It post. I think if I would have known at the start I would have saved the Random Start for after I played through the story line.
Like I said I must have missed where it says this, or maybe add a sentence in the Getting Started section of this page. ?So now what start a new game and import/span-in what I had when I made it to the starting area of the universe or just start a new game all together?

Any Plans to ad one of your New Transport Gates in the M32 Galaxy?? It is pretty isolated out there. @ ravien_ff & Vermillion Thanks for all your work on this, I am really enjoying RE2

Do you have change Core-Position of Unfinished Escape Rocket?

Thank you! And yeah if you're waiting for RE2 to ever be "done" that will not be for many years, if ever really. It's a big undertaking and it's just two of us doing it in our spare time.

Ah, got it. So in other words, there is no real reason to wait and I should just dive in? :)
BTW, thanks for your long-term dedication and passion for the game!

RE1 was never even out of a beta stage after 5 years.

2-5 years, possibly longer.

Is there a roadmap or an estimate for "stable version"? I am coming back to EGS after years and this is looking AWESOME!

Not yet.

Can I repair disabled enemy and imperial turrets somehow?

Yeah you could report that on GitHub so if others encounter the same issue they can look it up there.

3 Advanced Depots on Random start planet Betalan IV 2 have 969 hitpoint cores one has 1000 point core https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3564842917

@vermillion as I stated you can walk through a hologram and I shot it placed an explosive charge on it and couldn't scratch it.

anyone got a idea where u can get of find the palladium and industrial cut diamond or do u have to buy from traders

The abandoned depot's core has admin-protected windows on each side; shoot the holographic terminal in front of the core.

In 8000 hrs in this game I have never used a mod Definitely a 1000 hit point undamaged core. I will check other abandoned poi's on this planet and provide ID #s for a github report.

All of the standard abandoned POIs including that one have pre-damaged cores so they can be destroyed. If it does not then it's either a modified version of RE2, or a game bug.
You could report it on GitHub so if others encounter the same issue they can find it there.

Also not modded.

Can walk through hologram and place explosive on core stayed at 1000 hit points. It is an admin core owned by Eden_Abandoned.

@Grabber - Try destroying the Holographic Terminal, then attacking the core. ;) It CAN be destroyed, at least if you have an unmodified version of RE2. And the core itself reads 969/1000 HP.

Nope clear shot around holograand can't destroy core or hologram or quantum container. Hit points stay at 1000.

You can destroy the core.

Just did an Abandoned Depot on a random start Fungal planet fought down to the core with my T2 shotgun and T1 Sniper only to find it is an admin core so can't salvage. Is this intended to make the random starts tougher to get materials?

Oh, I should also mention... Any changes to the files in that location will get overridden EVERY time RE2 updates. ;)

And no, you can not change the folder location of a currently running save game.

That would be because its actually under a folder with the number of this workshop ID, which is 3143225812. And its located where your Steam files download, like : G:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\383120\3143225812

However! I highly suggest that you do not adjust the mining speed, / damage, radius... This is because if you do more damage to an area it does not mean you get more resources out of the area. I have in the past adjusted this myself and found that the slower you go, the more resources you can actually obtain from a single node. However, this was my experience with it, your mileage may vary... But it can also cause other issues like your drills not cutting a clean tunnel and the like. So be warned!

Why is it when I look for RE2 in my system files its not there? I wanted to adjust mining speed for a solo game and I can't find the files, why?

Yeah RE2 doesn't currently have any kind of tutorial so we assume people have at least a basic understanding of the game mechanics.

@DarkenedLucy its recommended to give vanilla a run through to familiarize yourself with the game first but not mandatory
