Version 1.0.20.3 - Bug and Performance Fixes

10 May 2021Developer post

Fixed performance problems with grenadiers and other boarders.
Saw blades and other ammoless weapons once again will fire at harmless targets if they have nothing better to do.
Temporarily disabled multiplayer chat overlay, as it was causing lag spikes. It will be fixed and re-enabled soon.
Fixed crash caused by ships producing less than 0.5 command points.
Fixed rare crash in file screen.
Fixed weird behaviour in file screen when you hit enter with nothing selected.
Limited number of particles in a combat to 4000. This can be changed by editing launch_settings.json.
You can now deactivate the enemy combat AI entirely, useful for testing purposes.
Cow-catcher ram is now called wurm-catcher ram, as there are no cows in the game's setting.
Instead of tips you now sometimes get in-universe ads in the world generation screen.
Modding: Ability to hook charges/tinctures/layouts into existing heraldic styles. See Modding Notes.txt in the game data folder for details.
