Hello everyone!
Motivated by the Kickstarter you will get one update per day!
This time I tackled the lost Quit Button, Fire, Map-Rescaling and more, see patch notes below:
New Stuff
- Unit KAT-4 greets you ingame and guides you through the first steps of the game!
- Your and other peoples ships can now randomly burn or smoke when hit.
- Asteroids now shatter small fragments when hit.
- New Icons for all resources.
- Map can now be rescaled with M, going from 100x to 2000x magnifier
- The Ships have all been moved into the new Hitbox system and prepared for asteroid collision (not active yet). This gave a slight performance boost.
- There is a new Safe Logoff button near the map.
- The Launcher has been updated
- Loadscreen has been updated with useful, coffee-related info.
- Added a few more easter eggs.
Changes
- The HSD (shift+w) now behaves like a Warp engine, charging while standing still and then blasting you off into space.
- HSD Charging Time has been cut by 30%
- Damage of NPCs has been increased
Known Bugs
- Occasionally your Mouse activates windows at random.
This is todays Update in a nutshell!
