Clean out yer ears and rinse your goggles for the Sensations Update! This month is all about displays and useful info for your future voyages, including an all-new Tactics View for Periscope users, and all-new Linux OS support! Read on for the sweet deets.
Features
Tactical Periscope View!
This all-new Radar-like view can now be accessed from the Periscope at the press of a button! (Spacebar by default)
The Tactical View will allow you to see further ahead than your Navigator or Weapons Specialist, giving you the insight your crew needs to make better decisions about where to go next, where the next expedition may lie, and where danger is lurking.
Furthermore, the tactical view displays a bevy of info regarding your vessel. From hull integrity, to fuel, to ammunition and power levels.
Linux OS Support!
Penguins rejoice, for Linux and Steam OS Support is here! Spread the word to your command-console-using friends, and tell them to come join the party!
In-Game Resolution Options!
This one's long overdue, but hey - maybe we'll get partial credit for turning in late. Say goodbye to the days where holding Alt before beginning the game is necessary for changing your resolution! No longer will you have to harness the secrets of the game just to change your picture size. Hi Ma! I'm a real game now!
Lonesome Secret
Finally, a new secret hat has been added to the game. For those with a keen eye and especially for those who frequent our streams, this image is the only clue you'll need to unlock it.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed in-game UI not scaling properly on different aspect ratios. No more squishing!
- Fixed menus not scaling properly on dif. aspect ratios as well! Consistency all around!
- Moved our Discord DLLs to the plugins folder, hopefully ensuring that we see fewer missing DLL exceptions being thrown.
- Added better exception handling for the Discord integration.
- Fixed some cases of pop-in spawning on environmental hazards and enemies.
- Fixed game starting at the wrong resolution. It should be a lot better at detecting your native resolution from the start now.
- Added camera effects for exterior view to bring back some of the original assets' saturation and color.
