i think you should make it so for the windows 10 version you can have touchscreen controls, because im on my windows 10 tablet and cant play without touchscreen. other than that, ive played on my pc before and its amazing
Mr .Anuke im playing the newest version of Mindustry i hope in the future update you could some of my suggestions.
1.new ores,fuels like valuable items maybe gold or something
2.A timer router that only passes to the next router when they are timed to go to next router.
3.A skirmish mode against you and AI/Computer with color coding
4.New buildings,routers,teleportation for liquid forms, & Maybe a Research lab
5.from concept Research lab,put something like a cloning router/MACHINE Fueling only with expensive fuels and ore,only be built if researched & more machines
6.New types & kinds of enemy like water & air Enemy types and a water & air deffences Like a Missile turret
I think adding some sort of drill mechanic to the power lasers or just a drill so you can break through the unbreakable blocks to create shortcuts and such for the belts (if there is already a way to do this I would love to know. I also use moble)
Hi I am a game designer for a leading studio. I shall remain anonymous for now but I would like to provide feedback: 1. The game has a lot of potential, I was happy to support it 2. The later stages of the game are not so great: Once I hit wave 20, I've rounded up all my supply chain, I've contained the enemies to trap them into my kill zones. Now, it's just a boring task of fixing kill zones and beefing them up or adding redundancies because the enemies are just becoming stronger. Nothing changes. I think every reasonable player just sees where this is going and how pointless it is. 3. The graphics are cute. I dig the pixel... "art"... but I think you should increase the resolution a little bit and invest in better sprites, as these are quite unexciting and actually hard to see what's going on. Like, you don't see the cool parts of the guns... Or, you don't see the difference between sorter and pump, like, there's no semantics, no "mechanics". Regardless of the resolution, the colors are boring!
Can't place the turret in the tutorial and it won't let me place iron drills anywhere that has iron, only places without iron and doesn't let me place blocks outside of the area of my core. Please help!!!
Honestly I'm excited for 4.0 all the new ores stuff. Hope to see it on mobile. Have it both on android and ios ( yes I payed ;) ) hope to see the new tactics 4.0 brings.
I started playing at 2.0, and the game has come a long way! Learning how everything works in 4.0 took a bit of time, but I really enjoy the new features. Being able to produce your own enemies is so fun. I also enjoy the mass driver, it's so stupid and cool at the same time. The amount of content you have added is amazing, how much new stuff did you have to code? It feels like almost a complete revamp, but I prefer it over the older versions. Can't wait for more updates!
your game is a piece of shit at this point... somehow the fucking pocket edition is better in almost everyway possible. we need a tutorial, we need to know what the ores are we need to know when the core is getting attacked, we need sound, we need to be able to fight back when we cant build something!! jesus Christ ive been kill like 6 time because I was trying to build something and your stupid game wont let me fight back
wow, it's almost as if this version is an incomplete alpha and none of the help text, content or UI is complete yet
it would sure be nice if the game told you that 4.0 is not representative of the final product-- perhaps it could even display a dialog at startup stating this fact in red highlighted text
oh well, guess this version is fundamentally broken because I can't find the shoot button or see the giant flashing "CORE IS UNDER ATTACK" text on the top of my screen
(seriously, if you don't like 4.0, play 3.5 until it's done, or at least read the info text that is displayed at startup instead of restating issues that I have already pointed out)
Version 3.5 indeed was better, almost everything changed for the worse in 4.0. Why there aren't 1x1 block drills along the 2x2 ones? 2K material cap? Wtf? No explanation for anything. You can't see what you'll be getting in the future because everything is hidden until you unlock it. I hope they change their minds and make the game more like 3.5 back again and improve upon that.
4.0 is alpha and most descriptions will come later. There will be a tutorial in build 57, and no, the game will not be more like 3.5, however I plan on making "Mindustry 3.6".
Одна из лучших игр, которые мне по настоящему нравятся. Игра очень увлекательная и интересная. Жаль, что она не так популярна, что делает её ещё лучше.
I feel that the beta version currently used in the preview is the better version. The current one just seems to outright copy the app version. I liked the more unique animations and special characters (i.e. the little helper drone) as well as it's old design and use.
Connect to your server by specifying the IP address of your computer. Like 192.168.0.101. If you dont know your IP, open Command Promt and enter command "ipconfig". Do yo see string "IPv4-adress....."? It's your local IP-adress. Use it when you connect to your server.
New version is WAY cooler for experienced players, but some blocks lack explanation. Overall I give is a 9/10. I'm glad this game is still being worked on!
The game has changed! To the better one, I think :)
But there are many things left to do. From my - gamer - perspective, the highest problem is lack of good explanation how everything works. Icons in the game help are not very clear when you don't know all the resources (when starting the game). So now I have to create all the possible things and experiment what can be put inside which building and what will be as a result.
Second thing is that I don't know if energy system is balanced. I don't know yet, because I haven't created all the things.
The idea of "campaign" is very interesting and probably very good, but lack of "advisor" there can be harmful for newbies.
Versions 3.0 and 3.5 of the game was much easier to understand and easier to play. This one is a very good main breaker and I want to play it more! :)
Edit: consider updating/ creating wiki pages and/or some diagrams how every building works. Or just basics? Allowing names near ore icons also is a good idea :)
Edit2: found a bug: if you build a complete conveyor bridge, it will act as infinite storage. I have tried to test the capacity, but I coudn't reach the max of it. Where is the best place for bug tracking?
Yes, but I can't read properly from icons. Also the explanations aren't clear enough. For example from help button I don't know if second drill will work without water (experiments: yes, but with lower efficiency).
There is a MAJOR BUG in Alpha 4.0, which is, there is a limit of how many resources you can have. I have been mining the dark purple ore (idk what it is) after I build my base with a big network flow (managed to use 9 inputs to the base transformed in 18 inputs - I split 3 lanes into 1 - and the damn thing clogged at the cube base where your mined items goes! This makes my 3 lane to 1 thing not working and the clogging is a mess! Looking at resources it seems the dark purple ore (have not tested any other ore) is capped at max of 2.0K and will NOT enter any more in the cube base unless you consume it and it will fill to the 2.0K again.
Thank you for the explanation! This version (4.0 Alpha v54) is much better than the 3.5 one, it just lacks a tutorial or explanations, but I managed to learn about every block and how it works through trial and error. Great game.

I can't play it in Windows 7. Does your game support my OS?

Second sector - goal is send attack comand from center. Just buld command center and game is frozen. Retry and got the same error.
Loving the new update, I was curious if it would be possible to add a "Follow Player" command to the Command Center.
Would love to have my mechs run around with me.
Yes
Howdy!
I am on Sector 0,2 and cannot figure out how to "Switch to mech dart". Did I miss something?
Thanks!
fantastic game great time passes on android, cant wait to try out server with a few friends

could you please please please tell me what the mass driver does? i can't figure it out, plz help me
when you hace two that are powered and in range of each other, items that are put into one are shot to the other, then you take the items out
your game is a piece of shit at this point... somehow the fucking pocket edition is better in almost everyway possible. we need a tutorial, we need to know what the ores are we need to know when the core is getting attacked, we need sound, we need to be able to fight back when we cant build something!! jesus Christ ive been kill like 6 time because I was trying to build something and your stupid game wont let me fight back

Honestly i think 3.5 is better than 4.0 becauseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee FUCKING 4.0 Is impossible
No, it might just be hard, but it's not impossible. Remember that it is in alpha.
I really like this game, and I can't stop playing this! But also, I have some proposals for you.
At first, please add some new turrets.When I build my defences with top turrets, the game begin be boring.
Also, please make more different ways (new extructors for example) to harvest reourses.
And after all, please add more ways to protect your base : for example, new variations of energetic shield, healing turret, generators etc.
Thanks!
This game is AWESOME. It reminds me of Factorio
You guys should have a proper forum instead on relying on Discord for everything.
A reddit or github page could do.
Since 4.0 is not finished yet, Discord is a quite proper forum. Wikies etc are coming soon.
Version 3.5 indeed was better, almost everything changed for the worse in 4.0. Why there aren't 1x1 block drills along the 2x2 ones? 2K material cap? Wtf? No explanation for anything.

How do I add cores to a map I'm making?
use the little green X, but you can only put one
can anyone link me the old version of mindustry
You have it here at the downloads, Mindustry 3.5-b40. For older, check GitHub.
I hope this comes to Steam soon, would be awesome.
It's coming soon.
Yes, I can't wait!
Erm...

The discord link isn't working anymore
how i can use the mass driver?
Hi
thats a really good prototype
i like the older version
uhh, idk?
uhh, idk?
I feel that the beta version currently used in the preview is the better version. The current one just seems to outright copy the app version. I liked the more unique animations and special characters (i.e. the little helper drone) as well as it's old design and use.
how do i make titanium
You don't.
how can i create a 4.0 server ?
or it is possible to create a 4.0 server ?
For Windows:
Download Mindustry-server-4.0-alpha-56.jar from download page.
Create new text document in the same folder where placed file Mindustry-server-4.0-alpha-56.jar and enter next text:
java -Xmx512M -jar Mindustry-server-4.0-alpha-56.jar
save text document as .bat
Run it.
Connect to your server by specifying the IP address of your computer. Like 192.168.0.101. If you dont know your IP, open Command Promt and enter command "ipconfig". Do yo see string "IPv4-adress....."? It's your local IP-adress. Use it when you connect to your server.
Done.
P.S. Sorry for my bad english.
New version is WAY cooler for experienced players, but some blocks lack explanation. Overall I give is a 9/10. I'm glad this game is still being worked on!

when you click an item you can click he ? button. it will show what resources it takes and what it creates
as for the rest you need to experiment
Yes, but I can't read properly from icons. Also the explanations aren't clear enough. For example from help button I don't know if second drill will work without water (experiments: yes, but with lower efficiency).

This is not a bug; all resources are capped at 2k capacity. If you want to store more resources near your core, use vaults.
When will this update come to Android phones?
Every build of 4.0 has been available for Android as an APK file download here on itch.io.
If you're asking about the Google Play store, it'll be released to production once it's no longer in alpha/beta.
Thanks <3
Thank you for the explanation! This version (4.0 Alpha v54) is much better than the 3.5 one, it just lacks a tutorial or explanations, but I managed to learn about every block and how it works through trial and error. Great game.
