• All items on campaign planets now automatically level up to the planet's current level, without having to spend colored minerals to do so. You can still spend colored minerals to upgrade items early, to one level higher than the planet's current level. This should allow you to save more colored minerals for mod crafting, and spend less on "catching up" your campaign items via in-game upgrades.
  
• You can now upgrade a campaign planet's items to a max level of 10 once you've conquered that planet
  
• Player difficulty settings will no longer reset unless you reset the planet

What excites us most about WoW’s crafting system is that it allows you to create very useful items starting from materials you can find naturally in the game world while completing quests. Also, once you've maxed out a specific skill, you can craft high-level armor that's useful in both PvP and PvE. I clearly remember all the sessions with my Rogue and the boots I crafted thanks to my leatherworking skill—they let me escape quickly (even if sometimes they exploded and launched me into the air… well, the escape still worked, just in a more dramatic way ːsteammockingː).

Even though Stuck On Earth is a competitive arena game, we wanted to recreate similar mechanics to bring back the same feelings that made us love WoW to this day.

The economy in Stuck On Earth is based on materials. Different resources can be used to craft skins and other items, which, depending on their type, allow the creation of specific objects.

The most common resource is "Silicate Stone", which is required to build any item—but only after combining it with one of the other available materials, like the "Fire Shard", which allows the creation of fire-based items. Or you can combine it with a "Plasma Shard" to create plasma-based items.

There are also more valuable elements, such as ultra-rare metals from planets in other galaxies, which are only accessible during certain special events.

I can’t reveal much more for now… but we’ll show you more soon, promise!

Hello

Significant update here. I think everyone who has tried the demo has experienced frustration with performance issues. And while I recognize that premature optimization can be the bane of many projects, there's also the fact that building in performant structures early can save a lot of headaches later down the line.

The first big change is a significant expansion of the zoning system. While ships in following seas are single root rigidbodies, there are hundreds to thousands of different assets making them up. This is further complicated by different audio and lighting zones, all of which are dynamic, which as a performance cost.

In previous updates, ships were segregated into interior and exterior spaces to reduce the overhead, but this still had issues, especially on larger ships. Now, zones have been moved from box zones to much more precise mesh based zones, allowing for more, and more precise zones to be created.

Additionally, 'non-zone' groupings have been added as well, essentially meaning many ship assets will stop drawing when the player is in a zone, as opposed to the reverse. Essentially high cost objects like the rigging and deck fixings can stop drawing when the player is below deck. Overall, this will have varied effects, depending on the ship. The caravel for example only has one zone, and will see no real improvements. The Saettia, as seen in the intro, has essentially five. This change allows for much more clutter and visual detail, while substantially cutting down on draw calls. Typically from many thousands per frame, to a few hundred, while still keeping the advantage of dynamic, non-batched meshes, and heavy LOD use.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next change will be interesting. The cloth system is by a wide margin the most expensive element of the simulation. There's only so much that can be done to improve this without cutting quality to an unsatisfying degree -- but this update sees a speculative change that may result in substantial improvement for some. (But it might also make things worse) So I will be pushing this out shortly, and would appreciate any feedback on whether performance improves. Additionally, this change *should* result in significantly lowered changes of particle explosions, depenetration loops, and physics death spirals resulting in crashes. Essentially the cloth sim is now asynchronous and multithreaded, and the bulk of the work has been moved from the CPU to a GPU based system. (Hence why the results may be very dependent on your system.)

On the steam deck for example, my performance in the intro has gone from slideshow to fully playable -- while on my main PC it actually loses performance as I have a strong CPU.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As for other changes, I've overhauled whipstaff steering, so it should feel a bit more precise and reliable, while still hopefully giving the impression that it's a stick on a rope.

I've added a percentage display to the reefing UI to make it easier to judge position without jumping to exterior views.

I've replaced the crosshair with a much smaller indicator.

And I've made numerous small changes to ship and prop objects, mostly with the aim to reduce materials and draw calls, as well as getting rid of some of the remaining placeholder spheres.

Added more graphical settings for lower end hardware and minor visual improvements

Hello hello again, Hikers!

April has come to an end and it’s time to recap what we’ve been working on. It’s been a big month with some real big changes so we have a lot to share!

Brand New Map
The Gold River Project’s development originally began about 3 years ago on Unreal Engine 4. As time went on, development progressed, and we began moving development to Unreal Engine 5, we ran into some issues that hurt performance. So, in addition to the various adjustments in March, we’ve also moved to a brand new map created from real locations in the Pacific Northwest using World Creator and imported it to UE 5.4. In turn, we were able to not only improve performance, but got to make the map look even better (Look at all those trees and mountains!).



New Features

As we moved to the new map, we also added new gameplay features to deepen the experience.

• Drink Water from Streams and Lakes - We’ve expanded the ways to hydrate! Now, instead of only being able to replenish your hydration with the water bottles you may find on your adventures, you can now drink from streams and lakes! But be careful. Just like the real wilderness, drinking straight from the source may make you sick. You’ll want to learn how to clean contaminated water to avoid making your trip even more dangerous.
  
• Twinkle Twinkle Little Lights - It looks like you’re going to be stuck out here for a while. So why not make camp a little more comfortable? You can give your campsite a little flair by crafting Twinkle Lights to decorate!
  
• Sit and Rest - Exploring the wilderness and fighting for your life will take a lot out of you! We’ve added a sit and rest mechanic that will enable you to build up your stamina to prepare you for your daily scavenges! Just pull up a chair, sit by the fire, and rest. Note: If you continue sitting even after your stamina bar is full, you can build one additional bar to buy you even more time!

While April was a big month in development, May is about to be even bigger. We have some very big announcements coming VERY soon so stay tuned! The adventure of a lifetime is just ahead ;).

Happy Hiking!
