Exocraft
v1.8.3
FEATURE There is a new checkpoint system that allows restoring your ship to its previous state after getting parts destroyed. Just enter the hangar after losing parts and a popup will appear asking if you want to recover the parts. The fee is mostly credits with a small gem cost based on the parts lost.
UPDATE Parts in cargo that used to be destroyed when their cargo bay was destroyed are now dropped in the world to be picked back up.
UPDATE Team Race results now show each player's monthly Team Race points ranking.
UPDATE The one-time account reset limit has been removed, but if you are having an issue that is requiring multiple resets please let us know.
UPDATE Tweaked down the gem cost of painting parts.
UPDATE Slightly tweaked up the world size (keep in mind that the actual world size is determined by number of online players).
UPDATE When auto selling crystals, the credit amount now animates from the bottom left of the screen.
UPDATE Tweaked down drone revive gem cost.
FIX Some daily bounty tasks wouldn't count correctly.
FIX Some mines wouldn't pay out crystals correctly.
FIX Switching exocraft in the hangar would sometimes cause parts from the previous to stick around.
FIX More fixes and tweaks to the new player tutorial.
FIX Various errors that were causing freezing and other issues.
v1.8.2
UPDATE Major performance improvements across the board of up to 85%!
UPDATE Updated our physics to correctly handle monitors that have a refresh rate greater than 60hz.
UPDATE When dragging a part in the hangar, it will now auto-flip to the valid configuration for the tile it is on (for example, a wing on the left/right of your ship).
UPDATE Clicking off a new part in the hangar no longer removes it, which was often confusing.
UPDATE The drone evolution screen now shows the stat increase instead of the base stats.
UPDATE The idle check for auto-removing players from team races has been lowered from 3 to 2 minutes.
UPDATE The drop radius for crystals has been increased to make it easier for large ships to drop.
