What, another patch already?! Yep, that's right. InDev 19 Unstable 4 has arrived! Assuming no last minute problems, Unstable 4 should be the last Unstable release before releasing InDev 19 Stable, keep an eye out for any game breaking bugs!
This patch mostly fixes bugs, but it also adds a new golem, a new tower and rebalances the new spawn system a bit. So let me know what you think down in the comments!
You can report bugs over at the official website's Support and Bugs Forum, or on the Steam Discussion Board. :)
InDev 19 Unstable 4 Change Log
Golems
- Increased min/max level for stone golems 1 level.
- New golem: The Wood Golem. A weaker wood based golem that respawn quickly, move fairly fast, but doesn't have much health.
- Golem combobulators can now repair golems assigned to their building if they have enough energy reserves.
Spawn System
- Fire Elementals spawns now start at day 5, instead of day 3.
- Specture spawns now start at day 8, instead of 5.
- Changed Fire Elemental's level range from 1 to 7 to 4 to 7
- Reduced spawn point generation rate by about 50%.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a bug where monsters would not attack towers when shot.
- Fixed some missing particle effects for the Way Maker Shack.
- Fixed a bug causing essence collectors and radiance pools to stop collecting any essence over an extended period of time.
- Fixed a save corruption bug when a mob's AI was trying to interact with a removed/destroyed object at the moment of saving.
- Fixed a building targeting issue that would sometimes erroneously report building coordinates.
- Fixed grab tool accuracy when dropping resources on small objects.
AI Changes
- Increased the time between pregnancy and coitus that actions can happen again.

- Improved golem targeting behavior slightly.
Miscellaneous Changes

- Bow Tower now requires a small amount of crystals to build. (Note: Builders can now harvest crystals)
- Out of range objects that require energy no longer display problem messages. (Mainly the Radiance Pools)
- Buildings with multiple errors now align the warning text correctly.
- Added the game version to the top right of the GUI.
- Radiance pools now heal more per tick, and can level monsters up to 3 levels above their level cap.
- Phase 1 of wall constructions no longer block paths.
Known Issues that will be resolved before the stable build
