V0.0.2a Update- Post Launch 19/11/2021
Evening everyone, we have spent the last week working on fixes and improvements for JUNKPUNK. One of the main things we’ve noticed from testing and feedback was that the building system needed improvement in a lot of areas.
So we’ve spent some considerable time here making the system easier, and more intuitive to place items.
You should all now be able to use the system much easier and overall have a better experience.
We intend to further improve on this in the future but we feel this is still a significant improvement that users will enjoy more.
Due to the significance of the improvements and the changes, the current saves that players have are likely to show errors and incorrect building setups now that we are pushing a new system into this. However they can still be played as usual but these errors will show on pre-existing buildings that have already been placed (so we recommend constructing new buildings should you continue).
We have also fixed a fairly large list of issues some of which we have detailed below.
Made a round of optimizations which improved performance massively on sessions with long playtimes.
Made a huge round of improvements and snapping implementations for the building system, this should make building a lot more smoother and a better experience.
Fixed a crash caused by putting paint cans inside large containers.
Fixed a bug where shift clicking items from a container to a full inventory made them disappear.
Fixed a bug where record players didn’t save the record inside them.
Fixed a bug with options not saving if you exit the game in the main menu.
Fixed a bug where hitting L would reset all missions.
Fixed a bug with the volume of the key activator sound effects.
Fixed a few issues with the compass and minimap directions.
Made stairs double sized.
Fixed the Plastic Ingot recipes. It was set to require Plastic Scrap instead of Plastic Shredded.
Fixed a bug with buckets sometimes not having a proper model.
Fixed up a lot of issues with buildings and incorrect placement.
Optimised destruction of many buildings at once (ongoing).
Fixed map still displaying players after they had disconnected.
Fixed an issue causing incorrect lighting and reflection in certain parts of the world.
Added more instructions near the build menu.
Added instructions in the Inventory panel for shift clicking and stack splitting.
Added an instruction that shows you the interaction button “E”
Added more detail to buildings placement conditions.
