UPDATE 2.0

How to install: go to C: drive, Program Files (x86), PandoriumLauncher, delete folder. download Version XX, run, (the game is small, only takes a minute) the screen will be black with 4 moving dots, exit program "X" (the "X" icon upper right of screen), go to C: drive, Program Files (x86), PandoriumLauncher folder, right click PandoriumLauncher.exe, send shortcut to desktop, right click on shortcut, choose "Run as administrator", enter game, update game. Enjoy!

Why do I need to put an email address when signing up?

EthanEverhart

The idea is good. But I recommend to wait for future updates. We are preparing big changes in the distribution area. We want to make full control over the colonists.

PANDORIUM

I recently thought of a new addition and that is pairing colonists together like they are married or partners if you want to run your colony like this. They can still have sex with other characters but they have an added branch in Family tab and it tells you who they are partners with? I find this easier to locate those colonists who you want to constantly have offspring with then try and hunt down their children cause it gets insane after so many colonists.

Bazzal

We will check the error message. As for the tutorial on creating objects, I do not really understand what you are talking about. If we are talking about building buildings, then I think the system does not require a separate tutorial. At least there have been no reports of difficulties with this. If we are talking about creating things, then at the moment you can’t create things and therefore there is no tutorial.

PANDORIUM

This game is pissing me off. It keeps telling me to build a farmer hostel, which I already have. There's also no tutorial to tell me how to do things. How is this even 2.0??? Restarting the game didn't fix that dumb bug. I'm getting very irritated, very fast.

Stealth_Meister

We thought about that. But decided to finish the current tasks first. In the future, we want to involve the character in all aspects of the life of the colony.

PANDORIUM

The graphics for the game are really great, and I see a lot of potential with the expansion of the game. It would be nice if my character had the chance to do breeding with the female colonists. Or maybe invite them to my house.

PhoenixRage23

You downloaded the launcher and not the game. Launcher will install the latest version of the game. Remember to run it as administrator.

PANDORIUM

why i downloaded game with this link, but after start game got 0.1 version?

If you're talking about Rourke’s store, then yes. There, the colonists have skill limitations. A higher skill can only be raised.

PANDORIUM

I have a question about the store. Do the stats increase as you level and gain or does it always stay the same? I keep track of my people on a spreadsheet and add their stats for a power level (Health+(Endurance*2)+(Strength*2)+(Fecundity*2)+Intellect+Sexiness) and the people I bred are about 55-65 when the formula adds them together but the store are almost always 20-30.

Skye Snark

I think that they should be kept only if they are unique to you. First, we will finish the work we have begun. Ahead are still new professions, festivals and a new colonist management system. Perhaps your colonists will be useful to you as police officers. It will become available in version 2.2 Version 2.1 will be available soon. In this version, an online market with other colonies and a spaceport will appear. Therefore, version 2.2 is already nearby.

PANDORIUM

Hi! Nice work on the update. I really like how people just populate the city now. When can we expect an update for the military? I'm not being impatient or anything, I just have a few colonists stashed away in Allocation and eating my food. I am keeping them because I want to train them for health, and I just want to know if I should still keep them.

maybe this will change soon. We are continuing to work.

PANDORIUM

Despite leaving the plantation and mining at the maximum level, and having more than 200 in population, so seriously thinking of giving up the game, the training schedule is well remembered, sometimes forget the game for days, even putting into practice just forgetting from entering the same day to boot longer, the interest in the game is gradually falling, and a pity

Lord Zero

run as admin ;)

PANDORIUM

I dont know why, but for some reason I can no longer get into the game. When I start it up and get past the first few warnings and such, the game asks me if I would consider donating and telling me where to go if I have questions and such. I press continue, and the game starts to load indefinitely. I have tried to close the game and start it several times, I have reboot my computer, I have deleted and reinstalled the game several times, and even allowed it to just keep loading, to make sure it was not just me getting impatient. But after having the game running (in the background while doing something else) for up to 8 hours, it was still loading. It never comes to the login screen or anything. I have tried to close all antivirus and all firewalls to see if that was the problem, and nothing works for me. There is one last thing that I have not yet tried, so I am going to re-download the installer, and try one more time, but my hopes are pretty much gone now. Please help? :) Edit: I could easily have deleted this post, but I figured out to make it work. I am not sure exactly what made this work, but here is what I did. I downloaded the game once more and reinstalled it on a diffrent harddisk just to make sure, and now I can play the game again. I could have deleted the post, but in case others have the same problem as I did, you can try this, and hopefully it works for you as well...

Paw Christensen

Thank you for letting me know!

Bazzal

Thanks for the feedback. All files must be downloaded so that there is no need to download additional files later. The game later exchanges data with the server and does not require constant downloads. The launch on behalf of the administrator is dictated by the laws of Windows. Downloading all files takes about 15 to 20 minutes. The rest depends on the technical features of the computer and the network.

PANDORIUM

Tried installing the game several times - failing every time with an "invalid file" error #2032 message. Followed the instructions given by someone else of deleting game folder, running installer, quitting, running game installer again at administrator, etc. Got up to about 150 of 552 files. A few comments\questions: 1) Why do you have to download everything all at once? 2) Even with high-speed broadband why do files of only a few MB take so long? 3) No resume? Given the lengthy installation time, having to start from scratch every time it craps itself makes the process extremely tedious and, above all, infuriating. A *huge* turn off, in my view.

Yes, thanks for the feedback. We plan to revise the system. For this, work on the city was started. We often have discussions about how to make the game more interesting. But difficulties must exist. In any case, we will still make changes.

PANDORIUM

I've been giving my patronage to this game off and on just about since it appeared on patreon, but I am starting to think I am just a glutton for punishment. It's great that you are re vamping the colony to look more lived in etc, but I gotta say, I have never in my life played a game more stacked against the player than this one. I mean, starting with the obvious, the training system. In most games (as in life usually as well) if you buy in bulk you get a discount. However, in this game, if you buy XP in bulk, you get a penalty. The breeding system seems completely random for passing on high stat traits, something I've been experimenting with for the last few months. Most of my breeders have at least a 15 or higher rating in both strength and endurance and I have yet to have offspring with traits passed on any higher than 14, and if they do, its usually one or the other, not both. So, unless I am doing something wrong, it seems that that system is stacked against the player as well. So you either need to spend an enormous amount of time training slowly, or a monstrous amount of cash to train faster, and after level 9 or so, even the great training wont fill the bar. The breeding mini game is a joke too, yet one more thing to make someone tear their hair out. 1-5 xp for completing on average, with a little cookie of 15 exp tossed in once and a while. I only use the mini game if I have a breeder close to leveling. It takes on average 1.5 minutes to both breed and play the mini game, so if you have 200 colonists breeding, allowing for a 10% failure rate it would take nearly three hours to breed all of them using the mini game. That's a huge chunk of time for very little reward xp wise. I used to be a jet set patron, but I downgraded, because owning the house and having the slave means you're literally spending an extra five bucks a month to interact with two game npc's and a couple animations. Now lets talk about the Rourke mini game. The people who have the high scores on that must have some kind of mod or something that super clicks for them. Still, I was impressed, making it to a high level score and seeing I made that fat grey bugger something like 12k in profits. So he hands me like a little over a hundred credits for my efforts. Considering how expensive training and everything else is in the game, that's enough to buy me a cup of coffee maybe. Yet one more thing stacked against the player and a total waste of time. You guys have a great idea, but as it sits from my perspective, you are making your players climb a cliff, in a blizzard, butt naked, and covered in vaseline in order to accomplish anything worthwhile.

Calibos

ummm...no. the merchant ship is "assumed" not a reality. The character "Monk" handles you off-hand quests and sales of colonists. Trading between colonies is supposed to be arranged in a future addition.

LordFoul

Is the merchant ship implemented? Been wondering :0

Bazzal

Hello! Thanks for the comments. We will correct errors.

PANDORIUM

- I also encountered the "missing Monk" issue, though you could still trade with him by going to the right spot. I guess it might be that the image of his is not being loaded after going to and out of a specific sublocation or so

Talos

- When playing with a wide screen, the game does not load the edge graphics (left and right) in time, so there's a moment of empty space before the graphics pop into place. Example: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6kz6um5sxi5ceoa/Edge%20Loading.jpg?dl=0 Same thing happens when you walk "away" from an edge, as the game starts removing graphics too early.

Talos

- The layering of the graphics elements is off in various places. For example in the farm area, there are rocks that the player character walks "behind", but when going to the front side of the rock, the player's head vanishes "under" the rock. I've also seen some of those flying drones slide "under" people just sitting on park benches. Example: https://www.dropbox.com/s/29our0jfamr8by9/Layering.jpg?dl=0 I guess the drones should just be on top of every possible human as they're flying high, but the rocks you'll likely have to cut into two pieces, one behind and one in front of the player? Oh, and I also swa the player walk "under" the layer of a sitting guy, so it's not just the drones.

Talos

Overall, nice work with the new city, seems a much more lively pace now. :) Though there are some issues with it: - The game seems to do odd auto-zooming when you change the width of the game window. With a wide screen, it zooms in so far that you can't see the texts of the buttons, or the lower half of any area. Oh, and even with the narrow window, the buttons are in the middle of the screen. Here's an example with a narrow window: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4lrqi15i6otmu4a/Narrow%20Window.jpg?dl=0 ...and a wide window: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6eil6b2hqlga6u8/Widescreen%20Zoom.jpg?dl=0

Talos

Some of this will help: - Disable firewall and antivirus. - Disable incognito mode (if using) - Configure TSL2.0 (there are instructions in the description) - Download the latest version of Launcher (latest version 16). - Reinstall the game Pre-delete the old folder). Most often, the problem is related to the old version of the launcher or incorrect updating of the game.

PANDORIUM

when ever i launch the game it says i have lost connection to game servers, how do i fix this?

We will fix this in a future update.

PANDORIUM

Monk has a very small hitbox and it can take a few times of walking up to him and moving around before his button pops up.

Skye Snark

I don’t understand very well what you mean.

PANDORIUM

Thanks. We will think about what can be done.

PANDORIUM

I do not see any apply button when trying to lower settings. That's really the only issue other then you should add an apply button also when changing someones name in allocation menu so the name actually stays if you don't select a profession.

Bazzal

And thank you Avalanche for your work on the Wiki, very impressive! And I certainly enjoy your comic flavor. :)

LordFoul

And after you interact, you have to walk away and return to interact again. That is inconvenient.

LordFoul

"Monk's button pops up should be bigger" perhaps the range near him should be bigger. Like, you don't have to be right next to him to activate interaction.

LordFoul

Your link isn't working Ava: https://ibb.co/dJypPvn) or https://ibb.co/dJypPvn

LordFoul

Ok so my ideas: - bug with disappearing Monk; - area where Monk's button pops up should be bigger; - farm menu should be bigger, there is more text and it's invisible; - fast travel buttons between farm and mine areas; - top bar with population, food, minerals and money: gaps between next values should be bigger (in my case quantity and income od minerals is bigger than place for it https://ibb.co/dJypPvn)

Avalanche1993

Будет. Но не скоро.

PANDORIUM

In order for the Sirians to arrive, you need to build a market. The club is not yet available.

PANDORIUM

how do I get pleiadians or any specia other than the blue ones and humans. Also how do I get the night club

Будет, русский язык?

The colonist management system does need changed if it's what is causing the loss of server connection, but yeah a more specific sort criteria will be helpful

A bank must have start-up capital if you want to be a banker.

PANDORIUM

We will look for the problem.

PANDORIUM

Is it just me, or do you actually need 100k cash to start an in game bank and move on with the questline?

Juline Piccard

Greetings! I play on two different laptops. One on Win10 - no problem. On the second (Win7) - there is an incomprehensible bug. When I exit the market and go down to Monk, he is not there. Just empty. When I leave any other zone and walk to Monk on foot, then he is. I reinstalled the game, cleaned it, and copied it from a laptop with Win10. Nothing helps. No Monk.

yeah so about this up date upgraded the colony to look lived in but made it a pain to navigate mine fast travels me into what i click and back to load start load point when i exit so im no outside of anything, i always go back to the middle of the map most times i load a new area when i go back to town the town only loads the bottom buttons and a black screen the hall of fame does not move like it should. in the breeding hostel training options are hidden you can still click them if you know where they were the just dont show up and if you click the wrong one hitting no on the "are you sure" menu doesnt matter it selects yes any how. farm upgraded but not the mine i see alot a places that look like they will eventually have something but till then its just wasted space and above all else the colonist management system doesnt need to be redone, it just need a select multiple, select all, and select only(by hair color, sex, race,or skill level). being able to move large groups of whom ever we are want by whatever skill we are trying to breed for would fix it

You already have the code. Use the account on which you activated the code earlier. For any questions, write to the PM.

PANDORIUM

Exited out and restarted, and he was back, but non responsive. Exited again, restarted, okay. Perhaps a bug?

Felix

Very odd - not sure if it is a bug but my Monk has disappeared, not where he's supposed to be (for clarity, found him fine after update, but today gone).

Felix

I did not get any code yet

Yes. The difference will be.

PANDORIUM

Also I wanted to mention a suggestion regarding Mystic and Candy Worthy's comments. You could have upgrades linked with the building's level. And non patrons would have access to let's say the first 10 levels while patrons could go higher. (This is an example of course)

I really like the new art ^^ However there is one thing bothering me. For instance when entering the breeder hostel, this happens immediately. But we do get a loading screen when exiting the hostel. In my opinion this slows the game down a little. You could just put the player back at the hostel entrance and load only the visible part of the map?

We have not yet been breeding...

PANDORIUM

The production does work in cycles. If you need just few units, click the statues in City Hall > Hall of Fame - they will five you few units of random resource.

Stojan Jakotić

Is this right? Are we supposed to wait 4 hours before the first yield from the mines? The hell are we supposed to do in the meantime?

Juline Piccard

Thanks. Yes, we want to completely change the colonist management system.

PANDORIUM

Yes. This is for future versions.

PANDORIUM

We will see what can be done. But first, we will do the planned work to change the system. Perhaps this feature will not come in handy in the future.

PANDORIUM

Right, new look seems nice. Looking forward to 2.2 with the hope that easier management of aspects like selecting for Hair color / Race-Species group will appear.

Felix

i noticed that some of the structures had levels on them, is that going to be a feature for the future involving quests and overall happiness from colonists?

Candy Worthy

Small request:<br> Is there any chance of increasing the training cap from 360? its a bit of a grind repeatedly training my colonists 360 points at a time and I'd love it if we could imput a number and let it go.<br>Even if the training time for such is greater, it would be MUCH less of a grind but much more manageable.

Mystic

Wonderful downloading (a note for other Win system users, found it worked best to not let AIR launcher install in a system folder). Looking forward (10 of 557 as writing).

Felix

Not. everything is good. Disable the firewall or antivirus. If the problem continues, reinstall the game (first delete the folder with the game)

PANDORIUM

Yes. Navigator is disabled.

PANDORIUM

lost connection for server. server is running?

Navigator is not working.

I assume your standing in front of monk? I also assume you didn't delete you game folder before applying update?

LordFoul

Monk is right below the market, it's the same amount of time. The map is spread out so you can see the sights, use the bottom panel to go instantly to where you want.

LordFoul

so the map changed and made reaching monk even more time consuming. Not much else is different but the game is slower and the map more spread out so walking around is worse.

Nick Davy

As a reminder, chat loans. No one needs a loan of 10 credits. If someone asks you for a loan of 10 creds; it's because they want to talk to you. Do not accept unless you don't want to chat. Accepting starts a timer that will delete all messages after 72 hours.

LordFoul

he-he http://prntscr.com/q14ayl

CorSan

Yes. this is a system change.

PANDORIUM

As noted: this is only a framework build. additions will be activated soon.

LordFoul

Well, as far as I can see, nothing new to do in my colony... All my farms and mines were level max upgraded so new stuff like "mutagene" is already done. Hope future updates will bring new activities.

Hecatonchire

Thanks! 😘

PANDORIUM

Thanks! We will continue to make changes to the system.

PANDORIUM

Remember to delete your previous game folder and reinstall. Just saying.

LordFoul

Nice look! I did the renaming right away. That worked fine. I went to unload the mine (no problem) and assign workers to the mine as instructed, but the display of workers froze. I'm at 8 male workers. No controls work except Menu. I quit and will try again later.

Bravo! Very nice new look! Love it

A bit of a resource hog compared to the older version, but it works, even on my old machine. Any chances of playing rourke's game are long gone until I finish building my new computer though, the resource drain's just too much for it to work.

Mystic

Ya, It doesn't function for me either. Perhaps it's for new game players or the next update.

LordFoul

A system of prompts and reminders (A new system of training and additional reminders from your helpers. The right side of the screen). i cant open it

When I logged on, I might of been one of the first, the colony ranking was all "unknowns" the bank list was all "unknowns"... it was pretty spooky... and now, interestingly, we can see who is actually still in the game.

LordFoul

Someone should really make a YouTube video on this...
