Update v0.42 live!

Hey hey!

So updates are a bit slower as we work on large stuff behind the scenes. Some of that includes the new Robot Facility map, a revamp/recreation of another map or two, Mac testing and some other features on the roadmap (which I should publish again since it was updated!).

This week, we've got a new system in for logging the events of the disasters that occur, as a way for interested players to earn bonus points when punching out.

I'll go into that after the changelog:

  • Made the saw in Evil Science capable of colliding with objects.
  • Added PIDs[Personal Identification Devices] to Athena's Wrath.
  • Added PIDs to Evil Science.
  • Added PIDs to Unearthly Excavation.
  • Added PIDs to Cryogenesis.
  • Once again allowed the shovel to trigger mining explosives.
  • Added a complex Punchout Report Forms system for alowing players to gain bonus points and potentially get Employee of the Month.
  • Fixed brooms and shovels counting as welding lasers in the punchout system. [No longer cause the burnt property note]

Here is what BlackEagle has to say about the new Report Forms system:
----------
In this update, we've implemented the Punchout Report Forms; a series of forms you can fill out for the company's official records.
The main one is a general run down of the various items and particulars of the incident you worked on.
This you fill in based on knowledge you gather by playing the level and studying the various horrors you witness.
The second part is an individual write-up of each deceased employee you find in the level.
These are identified by their Personal Identification Devices [P.I.Ds]. You pick them up and then deliver them to the punchout machine.
Once delivered, you fill in their required info.

The more accurate and attentive you are with the forms, the more bonus points you get in the hunt for that illusive Employee of the Month award!
It should be noted that failure to fill in the forms is NOT punished...but some will look on you with diminished respect.
----------

So there you go! If you want to earn even more bonus points, this'll really set your OCD nerves aflame! I will repeat this though; you DO NOT have to fill in the report forms on the punchout, there is no punishment for not filling them out.

Let us know what you think! We should have more news and updates full of good stuff as we head to the finish line :)
