Wires - Ver. 0.24x0473a

Welcome to another update.
This time, work was done on the wires. Wires now have a limited distance. A new item has also been added - Wire Extension! A new item allows you to make a network of wires on your ship!
To create a new item, you first need to learn its recipe in shipcore.

I also added the deformation of the wreckage of the ships when hit with a pickaxe. Over time I will improve this effect.

A new recipe has been added to the Recycler: Scrap-metal and Rubber - obtained from Wire.

A very annoying bug has been fixed:
If you switch the active item in the inventory, the item in the hands disappeared.

We also take part in the Survival Game Festival (August 1st), so don't miss this event and tell your friends!

News:

  • Work has been done on the entire wire system, many small bugs related to wires should be fixed.
  • Some localization work
  • Minor changes to the save system
  • Fixed some UI bugs in the Recycler
  • Fixed a bug that caused the backpack to disappear
  • Fixed freeze when saving game from pause menu
  • Fixed a bug that completely disables crafting
  • Prepared controls to add gamepad support

General - Ver. 0.24x0395a

In this update there will be nothing super new, but at the same time it is not unimportant!

I keep working on improving the project and optimizing the work environment. This time I updated the quest system and now the game has support for side quests (For example, building quests, etc.). The control system has been updated to add gamepad support. I also reworked the level loading system, now when loading a level, some players will not stop at a black loading screen. I'm actively working on the development of the story part of the game. I also think about new content, and often ask the opinions of the community on my Discord server.

From new:

  • The music in the tutorial and game was replaced due to copyright.
  • I've redesigned black box decoding so it's fun and not just waiting. You have to solve a small puzzle to decode the data.


Bugs have been fixed:

  • Black boxes don't spawn.
  • Items are not added to inventory when picked up
  • Buttons not remapping
  • It is possible to assign all actions to one button
  • Quests are not activated
  • White squares instead of energy icons
  • Level loading stuck on black screen
  • Saving the game causes a crash
  • You can't skip the prologue
  • Can't open Feedback
  • Destroyed ships don't appear

Summer sale - So hot!

It's time for the summer sale. It is very hot on the planet right now, so land on the surface and stock up on the desired games! Enjoy the shopping! ːsteamhappyː

Stacks - Ver. 0.24x0192a

This update has added a very important thing - Item Stacks!
Each inventory slot can now store a maximum of 64 resource units.

Hotkeys have also been added:
Left Shift + Click - Instant transfer of a full stack
Left Ctrl + Click - Instant transfer of one item
Left Alt + Click - Instant transfer of half a stack
These combinations work the same way when dragging.

Adding this mechanic solves a lot of problems (and adds new ones), such as the priority of items when using or crafting.
In the future, more and more resources will be added and it will be necessary to properly store them.

In order not to break your saves, stacks of old items are updated when you move them or try to drop and pick them up!

Fixes:

  • A bug where you can not use an item from the backpack
  • Infinite stacks to nowhere
  • Minor fixes in the quest UI
  • Printer and Recycler UI bugs
  • Adjusted item priority in inventory
  • Shows 2 active inventory slots
  • By pressing G (throw item) when there is no item in the cell, the inventory breaks
  • Using an item in the hands does not take away from the selected cell
  • Ship engine not using energy
  • Tools stop breaking when the backpack is put on
  • Resources were wasted infinitely when using the repair table
  • If you remove the filled generator with plastic, and if it is connected to the battery, then the battery will receive energy without the generator itself.
  • The number of items in a stack disable when hovering
  • Item swap not working


Thanks to everyone who continues to follow the updates!

Difficulty - Ver. 0.23x0281a

A small update in which I decided to add a difficulty level. When creating a world, you can choose the difficulty:

  • Standard - all as it was before the update.
  • Easy - oxygen and food are consumed twice as long

Also, a small fix of the game build was carried out and now the game should work better on the x64 bit version of windows! ːbigboltː
