Update 1.1.3.2
NEW :
- Interstellar Transmission - A terminal command where if you detect and download a signal, you will be able to try to send a back a message with 1 % chance to make contact.
- System Efficiency Booster - A terminal command that will gives you a 10% system efficiany boost
- Signal Analyzation Command - Loop through all save signals and analyze them for more module schematics
- New tech components
- Volume Buttons for signal audio, coordinate detection, radio , etc.
- New graphical option in Graphics -> Particles - controls the particle count in the game
- Explanation about modules and interstellar comunication in Tips
CHANGES :
- Changes of the data download. Current download progress of the data will be saved, if lose signal because of antenna coordinate change and then return back to the correct coordinates, data will not start from 0 , but will continue from the save current download data.
- When you download a signal at 100% you will get all the credits and the signal will be save in the DB before you decode it.
- Installed modules will have greenish color. Before all were the same
- Applying an upgrade will hide the apply button
- Coordinate detection and antenna detection are reduced 4 times - this will encourage you to use the 0.1 value and most importantly the coordinate detection will not exceed the elevation value so it will be easier to calculate them.
- No clear for terminal on enter/exit
- Disable the signal after the Seond UFO leave the scene, no need to wait 10 or more minutes
- The signal frequency range is now from 1050 - 9950
- The steps of the frequency detector is smaller than before. It is done because it is possible to pass through the right frequency and leave it as undetectable.
FIX :
- SetAverage comand in the terminal sets the elevation to min instead of average
- Decoding a signla gives you 0Cr in rare cases
- Graphical bug in antenna camera on the desk
- Tutorial cound is increasing in background - it was not affecting the gameplay
- Reflection probes changes , now they are not overlapping each other causing visual problems.
- Remotecoortrack should work only if a right freq is detected
- When a signal desapear the frequency detector light about Coordinate Detected will become red as i should
- Database / Credits exploit it was pressent in the beta
- Fix FPS dropdown when first UFO appears
- After a event appear in some cases the current signal stays enabled and this cause a conflict
- After the second, third , etc coordinate appearing the coordinate detector shows one line of coordinates instead of 0
- Analyze signal can't be activated second time - Bug from the Beta
- Antenna Collisions Changes - it was a one time glitch where the player drops bellow the floor of the antenna and stays traped there
PS : It was requested to add FOV option in the game. I was hoppping to add it in this update, but the the time wasn't on my side. In the next 3-5 days it will be added.
Update 1.1.3.1 BETA
- 'SignalAnalyze' command signal coudn't run
- 'SignalAnalyze' command crashes game on last signal
- 'Remotecoortrack' command will work only if the frequency is correct
- Sun light doesn't affect some doors / Lightmap change
- Texture optimization
- Solar panel Cleaner sounds
- Ambient sound change, the old one has problem reproducing in devices like laptops.
NEW :
- Walk audio
- Rain audio
- Menu audio
- Preparaion for the new terrain - at this point it is disabled.
CHANGES:
- Volume button step is 0.03 instead of 0.1
Update 1.1.3.0 beta - BETA BRANCH
In this version the game will create a new save_beta.dat file and will not affect your previous save file.

Update 1.1.2.1
- Fix : Missing texture , or blinking textures
- Fix : Server temperatures are dropping below the 40 degrees, the min should be 40 degrees
- Fix : Text on the clock on the wall out of bounds
- Fix : Geometry of the observatory and the antennas causing lightmap artefacts
- Changes : Retextured generator model and improvements
- Add : New models outside the observatory, it is for the new features planed for the next big update
- Add : Animation for sit and stand on the desk
1.1.2.0 Quick fix
- In some cases after downloading a data the algorith doesn't show fully the decoded data. I haven't recreated the problem yet. It is a random bug. Some changes are made that i think it is causing the problem.
- Fix : Only visual difference between credits amount between tech and upgrades.
PS : I will be gone for 2 days, so please don't break anything :) , at least till Sunday morning, then i will be at home and ready for everything.
Update 1.1.2.0
Update 1.1.2.0 Patch Notes
Fixes :
- Fix : Sun light at night is still reflecting in some objects
- Fix : Shadow Artefacts when clouds appeared
- Fix : Recharge rate wasn't saving properly
- Fix : Flashlight is active when sit on the desk
- Fix : Upgrading a system without applying it , if a module is installed it will recalculate the value with the maxed upgrade value of the upgrade
- Fix : If you leave the desk with zoom and sit you will have to click secondary mouse button twice to zoom
- Fix: Moon light and ambient light
Changes :
- Rain system look more realistic , at night the drops can reflect light when using the flashlight, raindrops will generate splashed when colliding with terrain
- Screen Space Reflection optimization
- More details to the observatory.
- Antenna Detection system is increased with 50%
- Download speed increased with 100%
- Coordinate detection changed from a range of 60 to 50
- Some upgrade will be decreased but this will give some balance between the start point of the game and later on.
- Now the first detection of the signals should be easier.
New :
- New signal detection system with frequency
- All signals will have unique frequency
- When the frequency is detected then the coordinates will show
- Terminal in the laptop so you can start it from there, you can now use the terminal directly from the desk.
- Controls for the outdoor lights, keep in mind that the lights are consuming energy
- Camera attached to an antenna, the image is rendered to one of the monitors so rotating the antennas you will be able to see it in real time (something like security camera)
- Tech to laptop UI. From there you can buy fuel for the generator and electronics for the tracking system. You can buy stuff only if you have enough storage. Storage is Upgradable.
- Tutorial system with a quest like tasks
- All modules are unlocked
- More modules added
- Tracking system
- Using the tracking system will automatically set the antenna coordinates to the average of the coordinate system.
- Using the tracking system will automatically try scan signal frequencies
- Tracking system will consume electronics
- Diesel Generator.
- The generator will increase the recharge rate with up to 50%. The Generator will consume fuel to work.
- New subsystem temperatures based on day, night and weather
- New command tempcheck to check the temperatures of the servers
- Add new 3D assets in the observatory
- Add command for server turbo fan - "turbo"
- Camera that renders a texture attached to the antennas
