Changelog v2.2.25.128673

New Content

• Added fix for existing spline/resource networks becoming broken or disconnected when starting some of the null sector missions; Spline networks that are loaded in at runtime via prebuilt mission structures now check for network ID collisions and will automatically adjust.

Reworking the Game

Steam have started limiting character content in posts, so a detailed outline of our strategy and how we got here will be included by me (the CEO) as the first comment in the thread below. As an aside, I have asked Valve several times if they could remove this restriction and I have not received any reply. Which is a shame, as we think providing you as much information as possible is in the interests of everyone - and limited characters in these update posts is unnecessary. If you agree - please let Valve know maybe we can get this changed. - Dean "Rocket" Hall, CEO

The Null Sector

Scarce Resources

Trail Beacons and Map Limitations

New Immersive Missions

The New Mission NULLSECTOR: FINALITY Provides a new reward for players - three additional Character Talent Points. These points are gained upon first-time completion and are granted to every character on your account, current and future.

The Ashlands and The Ice Sheet

Other Notable Improvements

• New Updated Prometheus Visual Map with more detail - making it much better for traversal (excluding the Null Sector)
  
• New Crates for Deploying Animals when purchased from the Orbital Workshop
  
• Fixed the issue with the first mission on Olympus not granting 'baby steps' achievement
  
• The T4 Water Trough now provides a new 'Filtered Trough Water' Modifier to Mounts / Tames that drink from it. This provides food/water consumption reduction and a stamina regen buff
  
• Water troughs now consume water until full and no longer act as batteries. This fixes various issues, such as water tanks being unable to fill up water troughs
  
• Workshop items now use a purple background in inventories to help them stand out
  
• Fixed Interactable with Portable Biofuel Container so that when it is deployed, you can fill it up / remove biofuel with a jerry can in hand, the same way the portable water container works with canteens
  

Important Note
Due to us unlocking a new region of the Prometheus map, the map FLOD elements had to be regenerated, meaning old rocks, ores, trees, etc, will be refreshed on existing Prometheus maps.

Next Week: Bug Fixes

Your support makes these updates possible.

• Hook up Rock Golem Gun mesh

• Fix Roat droptable to not have potato and tomato (was previously restricted by a stat never granted to players)

• Landscape, Decal Painting & Set Dressing Volcano Cave on Outpost 9, on Red Quad

Changelog v2.2.21.127494

New Content

• Enabled 15 Olympus missions as Operations
  

Fixed

• Tweak alignment/positioning of Workshop items to be more uniform with each category
  
• Removed Prometheus from Kiwi bestiary entry
  
• Allow scrolling on bestiary entries with more than 6 loot options
  
• Fixed cat from not attaching to hip properly by adding 'back' context for meshable entry
  
• Add DT validation to pickup on entries with Hip focusable without Meshable setup correctly
  
• Updated the Iron buildable skeletal meshs with positive/negative bounds set and reimported iron gate with softened normals
  
• Reducing sky light's contact shadow length from 0.2 -> 0.04, should result in less 'fuzzy' shadows, especially noticable on shadows cast by deployables on building pieces
  
• W_ProjectionInterface::UpdateNearbyProjectionActors now compares existing widgets using their desired soft widget class (instead of using whatever class they happened to have equipped at the time) - this will hopefully fix issues where crop plot information is shown while highlighting thigs that aren't crop plots
  
• Updated the iron buildable stairs to have the correct material assigned on the destructible mesh
  
• Update Shadow settings on Atmosphere Controller:
  
• 4x CSM distance, increased FarShadow cascade count from 1 to 2 and 2x FarShadow distance. Halved Moon light CSM distance to match Sun distance
  
• Removed CSM value being updated on tick (now on Ultra-Slow Tick), set the value based off the Settings value, not off a curve
  
• These changes should largely alleviate long-standing shadow artifacts (at a negligable performance cost), with some additional world changes coming to further improve.
  
• Players can now utilize the Max Shadow Cascades setting to have better control over shadow performance vs visuals
  
• Replaced old iron buildable icons to new ones
  
• Update cart attachments talent icon
  
• Fix Icebox, Refrigerator and Deep Freeze modifier names and descriptions being empty
  
• Fix farming cart attachment talent unlock order
  
• Fix glass double door left/right upgrade lookup
  
• Fixing Entry in D_Saddles that was preventing the Desert Saddle from being put on the Moa
  
• Fixed bug in mission LUPINE: Extermination where beacon wouldn't grant the correct stat and would soft-lock the mission until player found another way to show world bosses on map
  
• Fixed issue where guns with magazines couldn't be reloaded if they were brought down by a client using the Orbital Exchange Interface
  
• Fixed plow attachments breaking at 0 durability, allowed them to be repaired with right click (requires ranching station)
