Stranded: Alien Dawn Message Board  

Hello, I've been with you for 11 years and I am really satisfied. I have never said a wish because it was never necessary so far. Today, however, I would have my first wish: a coach for beached: Alien Dawn. Beached: Alien Dawn is not a multiplayer game, but a single player game. I therefore do not quite understand why there should be no coach for this game. I would be very happy if you could rethink your decision again. Thank you very much. Greetings Michael.

I am also waiting for the trainer for this game not to be retired, it's a single player,
Waiting for a response.
thank you.

Ok, thank you
It's a pity that you can't do the trainer 🙁

We will take another look if/when we can. thx

That's nice and sweet.
Thanks very much 😉

This game was retired because it's not trainable in a traditional way. In fact trying to work on it with mods in an UNTRADITIONAL way is also been met with a lot of issues. The problem here is that it's a LUA script game and because of that, it's not something that we can isolate functions or values easily, as SCRIPTS are being run in realtime and code being created for an instant then deleted and things being done with items in memory here then moved there, and nothing is stable and isolated. What is needed for this game, and probably how people have tried to hack it, is mods that are able to overwrite or modify the game scripts. This usually means files need to be unpacked, then modified. We aren't in the business of making mods for specific games, and honestly after reading about the developer cracking down on every single thing that has been tried or released or used, it seems a time sink.

YOu can see for yourself that there are no trainers out for this game, and for good reason.

You will need to do searches on the game and see if there are pre made LUA unpackers and LUA script tools that allow you to modify scripts. THEN you will need to know how to read LUA and where to modify and what not. I am sure someone has fiddled with all of this stuff, but it may be futile if the developer is doing things to thwart or detect changes.

Not every game is programmed the same or works the same. In the end YES machine code is created to "do something" in all cases. But how that happens and the ability to inject and collect or manipulate this in realtime is the trick, and that isn't always possible in how trainers are made.

This game unfortunately has to remain retired. I took the time to write all this so you can understand why.

best,
Cal

Hello Cal,
Thank you very much for this detailed and quick answer. Now I understand much better why this game will probably not get a coach. On the one hand, I even understand the game developer that with his game he wants to offer a demanding and sustainable game that is not easily and quickly played through the help of coaches. On the other hand, I also understand you, which you have to spend a lot of time here to understand the game mechanics so that they can then manipulate them. This can never take into account the cost-benefit effort. So I thank you for the honest answer. Thank you very much and still great work from you. Kind regards Michael 😌
