This changelog is big and rich, have fun reading through.
*NEW*
Base Building (Version 0.1a): ːcowboyhatː
- The easiest way to get access to the system is by selecting the "Builder" class when creating a new character, or you can buy or otherwise find a Hammer (new item) with your current character. If you select the class you'll start with a Hammer (key item for base building), a Pickaxe and an Axe. Collect a few rocks and lots of woods, and then use the hammer in your inventory, it'll invoke the base building system.
- COMMANDS: W,A,S,D to move the object to be created; Q, E to rotate the object; hold Alt to destroy (be careful when destroying objects, if you destroy a floor tile that has objects on top of it, it'll destroy the objects on top as well).
- The system uses a "Snap-To-Grid" mechanic on a 1.5m x 1.5m grid (5 ft x 5 ft).
- It uses simple rules and a smart parenting mechanic to enforce a realistic structure.
- At this moment it doesn't have any raiding mechanic or decaying system.
- You can't build higher than 3 stores; You can't build too close to a town or city; You can't build near other game buildings; All the objects YOU build can't occupy an area larger than 75 m radius (245 ft).
- You CAN build near other bases, and you SHOULD join forces with your friends to build a mega base. ːsteamhappyː
