Hey!
Episode 9: Clear Skies is now available for download. Bone War has ended, and it's time for the moment of peace. This one is special as it is a transit Episode with an improved rendering solution. This improved rendering is essential for the Age of Electricity and Construction System revamp.
Here are patch notes:
*Visual style has been improved with a strong focus on being easier to read and jump-start construction system revamp, heavily depending on this change.
*Landing Sequence performance boosted.
*Added Improved Fog and ambiances to each day cycle.
*Added Foliage Grass and Options Toggle for it.
*Structures: Added Half Wall Construction.
*Bone Wars on ESMA-1 has ended.
*Colonist events that happen when you click colonists are disabled for the time being.
*Non-Trader Npc's that come to visit your colony will be disabled. These NPC's will be reused later.
*Influence Events are back.
*Few bug fixes.
If you want to retain some of the classic looks that the game had/has, you can do that by disabling grass options; this primarily removes grass and adds traditional ambient occlusion back.
This Episode enables influence events back, and they are now going to stay in the game and evolve with feedback.
Again, folks, i will be delivering the next Episode next Week, and remember that Ragnorium is an evolving game where your feedback does have weight.
Have a good one!
