I am sorry the update is taking longer than I promised, My favourite job is doing technical stuff for the game, but that was no longer the priority. It was time to make space stations, rooms and pretty stuff. But unfortunately, I am really not the right guy for this kind of tasks. Weeks passed and I felt really un-inspired, unable to do anything, I started to work on decoaration system again so its actually usable, and good with performance, (I always counted with this decorative objects, thats the reason why walls are so plain, and simple on its own, They were meant to be decorated) I added lot of decorative objects for the walls. When I did that I actually came up with some wall designs I kinda liked , I was Inspired again!
However, the inspiration did not last long, I was unable to make one whole space-station all these empty rooms made me un inspired. Then I decided I should make furniture and it really helped to find some inspiration for style and contents of the rooms at the space station.
Furniture at its core is mindles rig with basic shapes, mean to be populated with decoration parts, for example cauch is using tens of them, but gameplay wise they are manipulated as one with its object and can be placed as a whole into the inventory. I do things this way because I am hoping that players could do custom decorating one day, but only if they want I dont want to force it. Any piece of decoration can have almost any material that is in the game.
The furniture has it's technical side too, closets and drawers have inventory and couch can be sit on.
There is also a happy reason why the update is taking longer, I have some new gameplay features that I didn't even promised but I made them anyway, and also 2 repeatable new jobs that are using some of these features. I will tell you about it when they actually came out as an update
I have to do some things before update can be released, I have a fuel station with motel in it, but I need another space station so there is a reason to use ships, and I need some other points of interest in space. I am open to ideas for points of interest, and for repeatable jobs or sidequest given by NPCs. (Nothing that that involves fighting please. Fighting will be in some big update hopefully by june).
If someone brings me some really good idea which I can actually use, that person will be in some form in game's credits. Kastuk earned that already repatedly over and over. Thank you Kastuk.
List of Furniture types that can have unique purpose in game, I am open to suggestions, thanks
