A few weeks ago, we've shown you new simple parts coming into version 0.9.0 but haven't provided the full description of how they'll be unlocked or how many parts will be there. With today's WIP update, we'd like to go into detail about the topic.
In 0.9.0. simple parts or "base" parts of every ranged weapon type (Bullet Shooter, Energy Shooter, Bullet Launcher, Energy Launcher) will be making its way into the game. Every firing method will be receiving a set of similar looking parts so players can feel free to choose which base part they wanted to accessorize and which firing method they'll use. The only exception being Bullet Launchers as they need to correspond to the number of warheads they'll fire.
In addition, these base parts will be provided to every player with no unlock requirements. This is due to our desire to have people able to start customizing from scratch even when they just started the game as well as veterans who started a new save for whatever reason. We'll also be making a pass to other parts and see if we should change where their blueprints are dropped, or whether to just straight up provide them at the start, but this will be done gradually so don't expect any yet in 0.9.0.
