i somehow noclipped into the boundary using grappling hook. tried to get a video of it but it's difficult to pull off, i have a picture of me stuck in the wall, and if you want i can email you a video of me getting the grappling hook stuck in the wall. my guess is it happens when the grappling hook is used right when the player hits the wall at high speed so it clips through, but i'm not sure
i found a way to get infinite water (use the snow gun thing and melt the snow let it go up and it will rain back as water) and a good game i cant wait for the full game <:
I'm on Chromebook and when I try to run the demo in browser it reaches the point where it says "starting" and then it stays on the loading screen forever, When I open the console it has three warnings, "Unrecognized feature: 'Monetization' " "Unrecognized feature: 'xr' " and the last says "Allow attribute will take precedence over 'allowfullscreen' " I don't know if any of that is helpful
enjoy the demo so hard, thank you for this awesome game but i cant keep playing the demo again and again, then i saw this website, registered anywhere in anyways and still cant play the preview here because of color blueprint error case #1 255,254,255 ?!? FOR GOD SAKE PLEASE HELP LOL
Thank you very much! ❤️ This is a known issue with antifingerprinting in certain browsers randomizing the color detection from the map when trying to build the world. With that said, this is also just the demo so you're not missing out on anything.
I like this game a lot i wanted to test the final version of my factory but i had already mined all of the resources on the map is there some way to spawn in sand/redsand or get it?
Unfortunately can't seem to get it to load on ChromeOS at all using either Chrome browser or Byte browser. Same issue as reported down thread - I get a tiny glimpse of the game screen if I scroll at it really fast, but otherwise just the black "Loading... Starting" (which seems to indicate it's getting past the sounds and setup stages?).
is there any way to fix it from staying on starting im on cromebook and if the dev is fixing it thank you hope you update this game soon i also cant download exstentions
love the videos but im using a chrome book and it never gets past the ¨loading starting¨"if i scroll really fast i can see a glimpse of the game behind the loading screen but i cant do anything
i am using a second browser to bypass restrictions ¨byte browser¨
I'm forced to put in an artificial limit on how fast it can load the sounds when loading it in the browsers (since it needs to a network request for each sound), so it's a bit slower than it should be.
i couldnt open it up it would give ma an assortment of errors until it crashed chrome but when i opened it back up the game launched just fine 10/10 (but fr its one of my favorite games rn)
I love this game and cannot wait until the full game is released. Very addictive and interactive game which I love. I am running into one reoccurring problem that being is that it seems that every 30 minutes or so my screen or the part of the screen on which the actual game is being projected goes completely white and this is still occurring. I've checked the system or console or whatever you want to call it, the thing that shows up on the side of your screen when you press Ctrl+Shift+J, and from what I understand is that there is some sort of screen limit or a reoccurring error that shows up reads "WebGL: CONTEXT_LOST_WEBGL: loseContext: context lost" I am not very good with coding and stuff so I'm not too sure what it means.
Hey! Now that's a new bug. Very interesting so thank you for reporting! It's either me doing something strange leading to memory leaks or some kind of hardware issue leading to losing contact with the GPU. Quick question: have you experienced anything like it in other browser games?
Option to export/load game data to backup it would be nice to have. I managed to dump IndexedDB data and later import it, but it may break if something is changed in game internals.
Btw, it throws an error and doesn't launch in Firefox (but works in Chrome).
Hey! Thank you very much! 🙏 Main Menu -> Load -> Export will download a .save file. You can import it by pressing Import in the top right corner in the same window. Importing the IndexedDB dump should work as well though but it's not ergonomical.
Yeah, lots of issues in Firefox with color profiles and the anti-fingerprinting things where it fails reading the map since the colors won't match. Haven't found a reliable fix yet that works on all platforms (e.g. when it started working on Firefox Windows it stopped working on Firefox Linux etc).
a lot of people even I have this bug you cant do anything about it not that I know of, if you have this bug you cant use another browser you cant use the steam version you cant do anything to fix it
the only thing that gets you a little into the game is playing on a phone browser at least there you get to the home screen and can create a word but you cant play since the game is all black,
you can interact with the inventory and other tabs but you cant use anything you cant place blocks you cant move you cant see anything but a black screen
but at least that gets you past the loading screen
this is a great game but if you cant play it what's the point of it and even the devs don't seem to even try to help you
all they ask is have you checked console then proceeds to go about their day like you were not even there
they would rather roleplay than actually help you
I don't have anything with roleplay but at least be a little serious when you are dealing with a problem
Wow! Two a week ago it was a little-known game with few comments. Now in one week there are as many comments as in the rest of the time! Lanto, congratulations!
Made a big pile to dive into Scrooge McDuck style. Didnt realise there was a limit on drones so my ferrying of red sand for flux got stopped. Also some water condensed in some pipes and stopped the rest of the steam escaping (this was before i plugged it with gold)
Initially I awkwardly used one small lake next to a cave, then evaporated an underground resivoir to refill the lake. Then i used what small pools i found underground to convert some sand before it got to the surface to prolong the lakes lifespan as i funnelled the same through, and finally unlocked pipes to refill it from larger pools deep below.
Its worth noting that pile is after unlocking all research in the demo, so presumably actually made twice that amount in total.
1. A drone admin is coming where you can lock drones and other things. 2. Yeah, there's a hardcoded limit on the lights in the shader right now due to various reasons. Going to fix that so the lights issue is resolved since it's a very common issue right now.
With the drones, its a little irksome to have to drag to set the path, given you can just noclip them through the world - perhaps the admin could have limited freecam where you can move within the area you have already explored?
I have a problem, when I downloaded the game and clicked on it to play it nothing loaded and when I Left clicked to go into Inspect (on Google Chrome) it said, Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED bundle.js:
That's interesting. Never seen that one before! Just to confirm, when you say "download" do you mean playing it on here or downloading the Steam version?
Drills are a basic way to obtain sand. they drill down, destroying blocks in a 2x1 areas beneath it, it also pulls up materials via the shaft, outputting it to the top.
Tiers:
There would be 3 types of drills. Mk1, Mk2, and Mk3.
Mk1: Basic drill, can break sand soil, and anything with ground toughness (Check below idea) 2 or below. It would drill about 10 pixels per minute. On colliding with a materials higher than it's possible drill level, it will slowly extract that material without breaking it, (1/20) speed, but the yield is only 1 of that resource. On mining bedrock, it will only spit out regular sand at a WAY slower pace. (1/40) speed.
Mk2: Same as the Mk1, The Mk2 can break anything of toughness 4 or less. It also can mine materials that require the gun or the flamethrower. Also, mines 25 pixels per minute instead of 10. Instead of mining at (1/20) speed on colliding with stronger materials, it will drill at (1/15) speed but the yield is only 1 of that resource. On mining bedrock, it may extract Red sand, Regular sand, or small bits of gold at (1/30) speed.
Mk3: Like the Mk1 and Mk2, This Drill digs anything toughness 6 or less, and that would be normally enough to break anything (except for bedrock). This drill mines almost anything, being able to mine crack stone, and allowing it to mine anything that requires the gun, the flamethrower, or the rocket launcher. This drill mines a lot faster. Mining at speeds of 50 pixels per minute. On colliding with a material higher than this drill's level, it will mine at (1/10) speed but the yield is only 1 of that resource. When mining bedrock, it can extract most materials, with each having a small chance.
Picture:
Ground Hardness:
Once procedural generation is made, some new materials are in order. (Check Below Idea)
Ground Layers (In Order):
SandSoil (Toughness 1) (Drops Sand)
Rocky Soil (Toughness 1) (Drops new material(Stone) and Sand)
Sandstone (Toughness 2) (Drops 2x as much sand as SandSoil)
Flint Node (Toughness 2) (Drops new material(Flint))
DarkSoil (Toughness 3) (Has a chance to drop gold when mined. Drops 3x as much Sand as Sandsoil)
Stone (Toughness 4) (Drops new material(Stone))
Mesa Block (Toughness 4) (Drops RedSand)
Compact Ice (Toughness 4) (Requires Flamethrower) (Becomes Ice on destruction)
Rich Soil (Toughness 2) (Drops 4x as much sand as SandSoil, also drops RedSand and new material(Flint))
Glowing Crystals (Toughness 5) (Shatters on destruction)
Dark Stone (Toughness 5) (Requires Rocket Launcher) (Drops 2x new material(Stone))
Mossy Stone (Toughness 5) (Rare pockets) (Destroyed by Rocket Launcher) (Drops 3x new material(Stone))
Some new stuff...
Bedrock (Toughness 100) (Unbreakable)
Materials:
Stone: (When dropped from a great height (about how high burned slag needs), it becomes Gold and Sand. (Dropped from: Rocky Soil, Stone, Dark Stone, Mossy Stone)
Flint: (When dropped, it combusts, causing Fire to spawn at it's location.) (Dropped from Flint Node, Rich Soil)
If you somehow read all this, PLEASE comment, i need to get this to Lantto. And if you are Lantto, Just keep in mind these things.
The idea is cool, but there are some subtleties. Drills will be almost useless if you do not take into account the infinite resources. On average, the nature of the destruction of the soil already significantly increases what you describe in the characteristics of the drill. New resources, although they need to be in the game, but what you described is similar to: sand, red sand, better sand, even cooler sand. With the stone, it is really cool, but the mechanics with throwing from a height are already there and I would like something else. P.S.: the translation of the comment is made by Google translator, there may be errors.
Alright. Sorry for the late reply! Now this was a nice idea dump! Love it. Will quickly comment on some things:
Drills and lasers are actually coming (not in the Demo but in the Playtest branch). I haven't decided how stationary drills should work but your implementation idea sounds solid!
Love all the ground and terrain ideas.
Thank you so much for the feedback! 🙏 Let me know if you have any more.
Hello! I am using Samsung A54 5G, Android: 14 and One UI: 6.1. When I try to play via web, the screen does not appear in normal sky, hints hotbar etc. are visible but everything else is pitch black. Only in dug dark places and in water the image is normal and playable but you can imagine how difficult it is (Imagine your cat gnawing the cable that transfers the screenshot and you have to constantly touch the cable when the image is gone :D or the charging cable :D ) I wish the game was not only for computer <3 It would be great if it was cross-platform like Mindustry <3 (Note: Translated by Google Translate.)
Hey! Sorry for the late reply and thank you for the feedback! Love the cat analogy. :D I'm surprised the game even loads on that setup at all. Very interesting actually. I'm going to sit down and focus on getting a proper Android version working one day.
Enjoying this sandbox so far (via the Demo from Steam primarily) and just noticed that the grappling hook can rather easily let you crash the game.
All you need to do is purchase the upgrade, then head near the sky limit on either the left or right edge of the map, then grapple upwards at an angle. You can latch onto a point that seems to be the “wraparound” for the X and Y axis, and if you release too far past the proper corner then the game freezes up entirely.
Not entirely sure how your game is built so let me know if there’s anything I can do to look up/generate some logging/debug info to help – I saw in one of the patch notes that you are using Electron (and I’m fairly handy with JavaScript/TypeScript, though not with Electron specifically) so if it takes some “dev knowledge” to provide assistance I’m cool with that
Hey! Sorry for the late reply and I'm sure we've already discussed this on Discord but responding anyway for other people to see:
The out of bounds issue crashing the game should have been resolved in a hotfix but you can still clip into the wall with the grappling hook. If that happens, use the new "Unstuck / Respawn" button.

also i somehow softlocked myself with it and prevented access to the main menu while interestingly enough, i was still earning money
okay i got a recording, sorry to continue to spam this with files
i somehow noclipped into the boundary using grappling hook. tried to get a video of it but it's difficult to pull off, i have a picture of me stuck in the wall, and if you want i can email you a video of me getting the grappling hook stuck in the wall. my guess is it happens when the grappling hook is used right when the player hits the wall at high speed so it clips through, but i'm not sure
i found a way to get infinite water (use the snow gun thing and melt the snow let it go up and it will rain back as water) and a good game i cant wait for the full game <:
and pls dond remove the snow bug cuz its like the only way i still have water ye i drained the whole map
It would be very cool if filters could transport more than one type of material. Ovarall, game is fantastic. :)
Yeah, multisetting for filters is coming in one of the next filter tiers. Thank you! 🙏
when i open the game its stuck on loading :(
i use steam too
I'm on Chromebook and when I try to run the demo in browser it reaches the point where it says "starting" and then it stays on the loading screen forever, When I open the console it has three warnings, "Unrecognized feature: 'Monetization' " "Unrecognized feature: 'xr' " and the last says "Allow attribute will take precedence over 'allowfullscreen' " I don't know if any of that is helpful

THANK YOU AGAIN, AWESOME GAME!!!
Thank you very much! ❤️ This is a known issue with antifingerprinting in certain browsers randomizing the color detection from the map when trying to build the world. With that said, this is also just the demo so you're not missing out on anything.
I like this game a lot i wanted to test the final version of my factory but i had already mined all of the resources on the map is there some way to spawn in sand/redsand or get it?
Thank you!
You can enable debug mode to spawn any resource: https://www.reddit.com/r/SandustryGame/comments/1ipgh1i/how_to_unlock_debug_mode...
Here is my opinions:
1) Game is awesome, tho short atm.
2) Flowers are ANNOYING! Too much petals, seeds are too infestive, spreading like crazy.
3) Red Sand is limited. Sad...
4) Sand is limited. Kinda MEH, because flowers gives more money then you need. Those pesky petals tho...
5) Water, sand, Red sand automation require!
Overall, so far a game for couple very invested hours. 5/5
Thank you for the input!
1. Well, it is just a demo. :)
2. Yeah, I'm planning some QoL for flowers that will make them less rowdy.
3. There's a lot more redsand now on new saves.
4. Yeah, it's very unbalanced right now. Didn't really calculate any rations. :P Won't be in an issue in full game.
5. Coming in full game.
Thank you! 🙏
very good game highly recommend to production games loke satisfactory and miners like hydroneer
Thank you very much! ❤️
Unfortunately can't seem to get it to load on ChromeOS at all using either Chrome browser or Byte browser.

samething happening to me if u hold w u hear a jetpack sound
there is a bug that happens when i press the unstuck button it teleports me inside of the left mountain
Yeah, there's supposed to be a new cave there that doesn't exist on old saves.
is there any way to fix it from staying on starting im on cromebook and if the dev is fixing it thank you hope you update this game soon i also cant download exstentions
IT'S MY FIRST TIME PLAING SANDUSTR
love the videos but im using a chrome book and it never gets past the ¨loading starting¨"if i scroll really fast i can see a glimpse of the game behind the loading screen but i cant do anything
i am using a second browser to bypass restrictions ¨byte browser¨
Interesting! Need to test it on a Chromebook with Byte Browser. Thanks for reporting!
it just keeps loading sounds
I'm forced to put in an artificial limit on how fast it can load the sounds when loading it in the browsers (since it needs to a network request for each sound), so it's a bit slower than it should be.
i couldnt open it up it would give ma an assortment of errors until it crashed chrome but when i opened it back up the game launched just fine 10/10 (but fr its one of my favorite games rn)

where is the download
On Steam.
longest load time out of any game I've played
Something is probably wrong. Check the console (Ctrl+Shift+J) and see if it throws any errors.
ok
it doesnt edit by that I mean it wont pop up the console
how do i get red sand
Keep digging!
Nice game and very addictive.

Is there a way to delete drones please ?
Nice game btw :)
Thank you! ❤️ Right now it will delete the oldest one depending on your limit, but a drone admin is coming where you can also lock them.
what upgradeds are needed for geting drills
Drills are not in the game... yet!
why do i haft to wight so long to play the game i realy want to play but i cant because it wont lode
a lot of people even I have this bug you cant do anything about it not that I know of, if you have this bug you cant use another browser you cant use the steam version you cant do anything to fix it

Also, some lights didnt work, is there a limit to how many can be placed?
Cool bunch! I want to ask where do you get water for her?

drone deleteter please
Yep, a drone admin is coming!
how long does it take for the game to load
i also have this bug its been 3 hours you cant wait for it to load
so what should I do
try Firefox browser that the only thing the devs tell you to do
I don't know about that. I usually recommend Chrome but ideally it should work in all browsers.
I am using chrome
I have a problem, when I downloaded the game and clicked on it to play it nothing loaded and when I Left clicked to go into Inspect (on Google Chrome) it said, Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED bundle.js:
That's interesting. Never seen that one before! Just to confirm, when you say "download" do you mean playing it on here or downloading the Steam version?
killed my save by jumping over the world edge mountain lol. got stuck in underground limited view and couldnt interact with anything
Hey! I've now added an "Unstuck / Respawn" button. Also fixed some of the out of bounds issues. Let me know if it fixes it for you.
Why can't we delete pipes? It would be a good feature an i think it's easy to add...
Pipe Remover is in the buildings tab near the bottom. Has a big red X.
My bad. Didn't see it
Yeah, it's pretty unclear right now. Sorry!
This was a lot of fun! Looking forward to the full version.
Thanks! I will make sure not to disappoint! 🙏
My favourite game right now
Thank you! ❤️
Game or PC? So I have tried opening Sandustry multiple times on different days and it gets stuck on Launching...
Hey! Sorry for the late reply.
What browser and computer are you on? Are you sure it says "Launching"?
Yes. My computer is not the best but it runs most games. I have tried the demo and Itch browser and neither have worked.
