V 0.74 || Wild West Update! Horses! TIME SLOWER!
Hello fellow players!
I've worked pretty hard so this months update is pretty extensive. It focuses primarily on the wild west of the 1800s but also a few other neat additions and fixes!
BACKDROP ENTITIES
You may also be able to spot occasional backdrop entities. Passing by planes or boats all appropriate to the time and age you traveled to.
MORE LORE
Image by Sir Atom New paintings and maps and entries in books about the No Time world can be found in the game
Follow Clint Westwood on his hunt for bandits! Including a very lengthy and awesome fight scene where he fights 20 bandits single handed with their boss on his back! Took me two weeks to animate that thing.
The quest also includes a number of pretty cool new features and revamps!
HORSES
You can buy them ride them. For now you can just put them in your inventory but later on I might include something more logical to store them in. Like a dimension animal catcher, meaning you could also store wild coco crabs. Gotta catch em all after all ^^
Byroad Location Revamp
As you have seen above I added a more wild west look to the byroad region. In a future update the saloon will become a bowling place since during the prohibition the place went down hill. Same revamp will of course happen to fisher bay as well, to make them all more distinguished and worth the time to travel through.
The TIME SLOWER.
It allows you to slow down time... but it also enables you to do higher jumps and faster movement than usual folk.
No I might hear you say: "You wanna tell me I am going to be able to dodge bullets?". The answer to that is a resounding YES.
There have been many more additions all being listed below in the change log as usual!
The next update will include world content like the planned Athor Estate Revamp, a future gang, the bowling place of course and many more places to explore so stay tuned for that.
Another possible feature on the horizon might be the addition of car modifications for the workshop, say completely custom car models.
So if you want to turn the car into a giant banana on wheels you could do that. However I will have to put a lot of prep and research into it as this is all new for me as well. Thank you for your ongoing support and enjoy the update!
Added new paintings or posters that are supposed to enrich the lore of No Time and are supposed to be in part images from the world around Pine Island
Added another entry to the geography of pine lake book
Added lines of exposition on the side of Edward to ACT I which explains how the player has dimension cases built into his pants to hold items (since horses are now carriable)
Added backdrop entities like ships, boats, hovercrafts and planes
Added chocolate donuts
Added Carpet Floor Sounds
Added a saloon to byroad
Added borders and entrances to the old forest
Added enemies taking cover if having a gun (Doesn't include all places yet)
During Sequences the User Interface gets disabled now to avoid obstruction
Revamped the northern part of the island to fit the wild west setting
Lowered the voice sample of Edward a tad
Cacti give damage now
Adjustments to the sky effects and lighting to be more realistic and correct
Enemies can now get knocked out by impact from physics objects
Increased the visibility of St. Andrey under clear weather conditions
Fixed the time travel tunnel sound oversampling
Fixed missing German translations on item descriptions
Fixed some glitches to Hidden Cutting Level -1 & 0
Fixed some German typos
Fixed the spawning of cars on the highway right in front of you
Fixes to the moon light, so that its not too dark in the open fields at night
Fixed the sometimes faulty positioning of the car at the mechanic during the Last Stage Quest
Fixed the light loading system from breaking
Fixed the fall damage after water impact
Fixed some of the big trees hit boxes
Fixed an issue where in natives from outside would spot you and engage in combat if you are inside the arena
V 0.72 | Mini Update | Patch Notes | New Time Agent Spawn Preview!
Hello fellow players!
There have been a number of patches in the past days so here are the change notes!
It has come to my attention by the reports of some players that the workshop upload stopped working. I hope with today's fix this issue gets resolved :)
Make sure to try out the the little preview into some of the revamps I am working on in regards to the time agents, and how they may function in the future.
The small preview includes a remake of the rules when agents spawn.
Once the clock goes full they spawn in, in future updates the clock can fill up three times, which each level adding different kinds of time agents.
A future addition in a soon to come mini update will in part tie into the next Westwood Side Quest. Namely if you get defeated, you may get transported to a secret hideout of the Agents, which will play a role in the Westwood Side Quest.
Below are the patch and change notes.
Cheers and God bless: March 15th 2022 0.72

V0.71 | Workshop Update! || German Translation || PLC Cheats!
Hello fellow players!
I've worked quite hard this month to get you this unique update!
The No Time Workshop
As promised for this months update I am happy to announce that the foundation for the first Workshop mods has been laid out! Given that the Steamworks Workshop documentation is not the most thorough by popular opinion. But with the help of some community posts from other users and Taelyn from Eleon Game Studios I finally managed to get it working. You can create custom sound packs and language packs! I am happy that some mods have already been created and I count on you guys to make great content over there.
This is merely a foundation for other mod types to come in the future! New mod types like texture packs, custom car models and maybe eventually even world addons. How to upload the mod you ask? Heres a simple and quick tutorial: [previewyoutube="hkk4J5RCZe4;full"]
No Time is finally also available in the German language!
Other languages are also planned, but will be likely be developed in the workshop independently of the main game till the game has been finalised.
And Finally PLC Cheats are a thing!
In the PLC you create another .eee file then you type into it.
cococrab cocohelp
Then save and execute. This will prompt you with a list of available commands. [previewyoutube="aplDOhuoWi0;full"] Initially there were no cheats since the story was still in development and I wanted to keep the suspense.
But now that the main story at least is out, I'll be able to reopen that part of the game to you!
Enjoy! This update was more on the technical but still very important for future content.
Expect next update to be about the wild west and possibly the last major narrative side quest to be added before the Epilogue. Full change log below.
Stay tuned, God bless.
-Erathor

Added cheatcodes to the plc execute code lines "cococrab" and then "cocohelp"
Updated the Main Menu Credits to be in line with the credits scroll in game

Fixed the train track from not appearing in the ACT II time line
Fixed missing spacing on the info board on main street
Fixed a bug where in default all trade buttons would be visible at start
Fixed some typos
Fixed the car from freaking out after returning from pausing the game after a while

ATOM n TRAINS Update! Cool new Features! V 0.7
Hello fellow players!
This months update is a biggie.
The game has new trains!
New features for the trains include arrival announcements, time plans, train passengers getting in and out of the wagons. And lastly a revamped timeline system for train as well which allowed me to create new train stations, spread across the map of Pine Island!
The Steam Locomotive 1870s 1950s Passenger Train And the well known 2014 Hover Train! The PLC received a big overhaul in looks and function. The current date is now displayed on the bottom, making it easier to distinguish the current time with the required quest time! You can now write custom notes in your journal and even write little code pieces. This new feature is especially interesting and important for the future. With the implantation of the Mini Script interpreter, this is now possible! The idea is that in future updates you could make or buy cartridges with specific codes, to hack or bypass systems (If you wanted to go down that route) Or play games on it, written by other players!
This could also open the doors for possible custom code mods for AI or other interesting things of the like in future updates, so stay tuned in that regard! Here is some reference material if you want to try it out on the PLC! A hello world example code should appear in the first save file you load after the update. Try this little code snip out as a test: print "hello there" breakline wait 2 draw 1,10,100 print "look I drew something :D" wait 3 clear print "ok you can go now..."
Radiation Poisoning is now a real threat! So I suggest you get hold of a radiation suit, when handling uranium rods! Should you get a lethal doze, use the "Rads Gone" pack to heal you up! Now most liquids look like liquids! They wobble when you move them around.
I've implemented a random environment generation system. It is my hope that this way I'll be able to fill blank terrain with more interesting details and variation in every year. That means that in the future, nature would also look different. Trees could grow and forests would move. This would be a huge plus on the evolution of the terrain over time! Next update will likely receive its first translations, namely German and Polish! Custom Language packs will probably also be the first Workshop Items, that can easily be made then uploaded by you the players!
Now I hope you like the new additions to No Time! Change log can be viewed in full below as usual. Enjoy the update and God bless! -Erathor
