I've released a quick patch to fix a bug with pit traps in the recent big publicbeta update. I've also added a warning when you use the Editor on BaseStory or Sandbox mod folders, letting you know that if you edit that stuff you won't be able to play online with other people as your files won't match, as that seemed to be catching a lot of people out. Here's the full changelist:
- Fixed pit traps
- Fix for character going into an infinite loop collecting urine for saltpeter, if you set the policy on it to Don't Drink
- When using Editor to make changes to BaseStory and mod folders, show a warning to let people know it will stop them from playing the mod online
- Ignore translations when calculating if BaseStory etc folders are the same for online play
- Added Max Spawnable setting to equipment, so e.g. a particular item type can be set to only spawn once
Oh and by the way I've also written a guide for modders on how to import props from Unity ːsteamhappyː
What's this publicbeta thing?
v99 will be in the "publicbeta" branch for a while, before pushing it to the main game. If you want to try the latest features as they come out (and help test them!) it's a good idea to start using this branch. But keep in mind:
- Because it's the bleeding edge it could be less stable
- If you want to be able to play online co-op with someone you'll need to be on the same version as them
- If you go back from the "publicbeta" branch to the main branch you may not be able to load savegames created on "publicbeta".
To use publicbeta, just right-click on Survivalist: Invisible Strain in your Steam library and go to Properties, then Betas and in the drop-down select "publicbeta".
