Build Creative Tiki Bases
Unleash your creativity and take your Tiki / Bamboo builds to a whole new level!
- New Corner Roofs for Tiki / Bamboo: Outer Corner (Hip) and Inner Corner (Valley).
- Hip Roofs can attach to any bamboo wall.
- Hip Roofs can also be attached to bamboo large trim (pillar) and bamboo doorways.
- Hip Roofs can also be attached to other Hip Roofs and Valley Roofs expanding the number of possible variations of the roof line.
- Valley Roof can attach to Gable Roof pieces such as bamboo Right Roof, bamboo Middle Roof, and Left Roof - Note that right and left bamboo roofs are determined by the direction of the angled frayed edges when placing a roof on wall (when facing the wall from the inside).
- Bamboo Windows can now be placed on both sides of the Bamboo Window Wall.
- Bamboo Foundation and Half Foundations can now be attached to the bottom of the foundation stairs creating a potential to build various landings on your staircases.
Major Performance Optimization
Forgotten Seas is a CPU intensive, multiplayer base building game. We will continue to optimize at every chance we get. We are a 2 person team and this is a monumental task. It will take some time. We thank you for your patience.
We have optimized several aspects of the game to bring you faster frame rates and smoother gameplay. Some of you may see triple digit framerates in newly created worlds and an overall smoother performance. Currently saved worlds will also benefit from performance optimizations, depending on how many storage entities, and building pieces are placed close to each other.
Overall, there should still be a noticeable boost in your performance, whether your world is new or old. While we have increased the number of building units that can be rendered effectively in a small area, you may experience some bottlenecks in heavily congested areas with a lot of building and processing units. To continue to experience a smoother performance as your world grows, try spreading out your buildings, processing units and other decorations.
Significantly Faster World Load Times
We have optimized world loading to bring you significantly faster world loading times regardless of your base build size. Most worlds should load within 15-30 seconds as opposed to 2-5 min loading times before for larger worlds! Don’t let loading times hold you back any more. Get ready to Unleash your creativity!
Other Changes
- Added a no-build zone near the tropical and forest traders to prevent players inadvertently building too close to the trader location. This is to prevent the trader ship from intruding in your homes!
- Fixed some translation related issues. We are aware that there may be some missing or incorrect translations. We will be making more of these fixes over a period of time.
- Added new loading scene images for world loading, teleporting and respawning.
- Fixed an issue that was causing incompatibility related UI crashes when using a mouse with extremely high poll rates. This manifested to some users as the UI icons being stuck on the screen or non responsive while dragging the mouse.
