StarCrawlers Patch Notes - 11/22

Surprise again! Another quick update to activate the Hollow Earth, Hollow Soul and Gray Solutions factions, plus some quick fixes and quality of life tweaks.

Factions

  • Gray Solutions can now be contacted via the Wire terminal.
  • Hollow Earth, Hollow Soul can now be contacted via the Wire terminal. To find out how your contribution of just 10 credits a day can help a lifeform in need, please contact a HEHS representative. Operators are standing by.
  • HEHS no longer offers missions like corporations, as they are not a megacorp, but can offer bonus objectives to supporters of their cause.
  • Fixed an issue with Jiyin Biotech accruing favor without scanning biomass boluses.

Maps

  • Added additional map seed randomization and new interactions.
  • Added new bonus objectives for HEHS to Labs, Mines and Office maps.
  • Fixed an issue that could cause vending machines to spawn on top of eachother.
  • Fixed additional instances of items spawning in unreachable locations.

Combat

  • Players in Stealth can now be targeted by mobs but all attacks will miss. This resolves several issues causing combat to freeze when a mob is trying to calculate abilities based on the number of visible players.

UI

  • A & D keys will once again correctly rotate the player view 90 degrees even during free look / permanent free look mode.
  • Combat Log no longer shows extraneous info at the start of combat or when a mob joins battle.

Items

  • Added new items unique to Gray Solutions and HEHS.

Coming Soon

  • The final friendly faction contact events: Rhyzohm, Pink Abduction Ray, Astrohund, and . . . ?
  • More cool stuff!
