Patch Notes
Bugfixes
prevent level 01 soft lock: until the player places their first extractor on the correct resource area (iron), they receive the credits back - this should prevent running out of credits in level 01
prevent level 01 soft lock: until the player placed their second launch pad in level 01 (after the instruction is given), the credits are reset to 100 whenever it drops below 100
prevent level 01 soft lock: added more restrictions preventing the player from completing the water / titanium goal quest in level 1 before the rover mechanic was introduced: their credits are set to 15 instead of 25 (meaning 3 nuggets are required to afford the next extractor), building recall functionality is disabled and extractors in building inventory are cleared
prevent level 02 soft lock: no new excavation quest from Ruth was starting after saving and loading a game in sector 02 and completing the currently active excavation quest
fixed entering the wrong asteroid or showing a blank screen instead of the asteroid when selecting a different one or deselecting the current asteroid while the entering transition is happening
privacy buttons to access analytics privacy consent screen is now visible in Settings > Other
interplanetary connection no longer works with right click (could cause connection drawing getting stuck)
Other
implemented resolution dropdown in graphics settings. Should only allow resolutions with aspect ratio of 16:9 or lower (so no wide screen) - on wide screen, it should set itself to the highest allowed resolution
added labels above Toukana & kurzgesagt in credits screen
Disclaimer:
The Star Birds demo doesn't currently support wide screen monitors - instead, the game will be displayed in 16:9 with black borders on the sides. This is a workaround for now and we fully intend to provide proper wide screen support for the release version!
Star Birds also doesn't have official Steam Deck and Controller support yet. We plan to add both in the future!
