ps : if you can't create a character, relaunch steam you should have a quick patch to download who will fix your problem.

Hello!

I know, you expect new content or big improvement, it's normal but we have to fix the bugs and developing internal tools for engines (wich will allow us to prepare future major content) first. It takes a little time and is unfortunately invisible to you.

But get ready for the next patch, it will make a major change to the game that will make the gameplay much more dynamic and interesting!

Adds:
  • Inventory and chests use the new user interface engine
  • Take all, sort, stack, and "put the same items" options added to chests
  • Save is now async, so it should no longer freeze the game
  • Automatic world backup system
  • You can stop fire with the sword
  • After an error screen, you can return to titlescreen with Esc

Fix:
  • Shadow armor reworked
  • Small windmills can crash the game
  • Random crash when loading a world should be fixed
  • Random crash when you quit the game should be fixed
  • Sometimes, the jungle background appears when you load a world

Changes:
  • Big rework and refactoring of the internal engine

Adds
  • Fire propagation: wooden blocks can catch fire if you use fireballs on them. You can use ice magic (or rain) to put out the fire.
  • Dynamic fluids, water on caves, surface lakes. Be careful not to drown yourself!
  • New procedural engine:
  • Fully customizable with json configuration files
  • Manual patterns can be used to generate precise biomes structures, with
    precise water areas, cavern entrances...
  • Manual structures (made in the game in building mode) car be generated
  • Customizable trees and lianas generation on surfaces
  • Fully customizable cave system, with the ability to generate manual structures,
    donjon entrances, liquids, etc...
  • System of "underground surfaces" like hell
  • Fluids are simulated before entering the game

    Changes
  • Added bubbles on lava
  • Optimized networking: netplay messages are now compressed
  • Replaced world generation with the new procedural engine,
    the plains should be more interesting to explore.
  • Engine: all "in code" biomes parameters are now in configuration files,
    which makes it possible to create new biomes using mods
  • Engine: inherited biomes, to simplify the surface generation with custom zones

    Nb
  • Fire propagation will be used later for traps and new mechanics.
  • All biomes are not yet reworked, only the plains are using the new
    pattern engine. Next patchs will rework other surface biomes, and maybe even hell.
  • The new procedural engine is not fully completed, some parameters don't exists yet like the ability to change dirt and rock types for caves, or the ability to generate unique objects (like the phenix sword).
  • A tutorial for world modding will be added later


    Water texture is temporary


    Fire! Fire!

Hello!

Yes, we know, where is the god damn patch?!

The next patch will content 3 features :

Liquid & New procedural generation of the surface


Fire propagation


As you can still see on the game, the world on the surface can pretty flat and boring and was a problem for the generation of water surfaces on the surface So we have to redo the procedural generation system by making sure that the engine accepts also chunk made manually.

The good news is that after the patch (we will do a tutorial for that) the new systeme will allow anyone to made their own chunk creation!



Sorry that it take so much time but we have obviously to fix every bugs we found related to theses news feature before we can release the patch.

If all goes well, we should release the patch next week!

Thank you for your patience and have a nice week/holidays!

Hello!

We focused mainly on the optimizations for this patch with the hope that it will help those who have a low-end laptop to properly run the game.

Changelog
  • New optimized tiles rendering engine, should greatly increase performance.
  • Can be disabled with the "Bake tiles" option.
  • New surface ruins (only on new worlds)
  • Internal engine reworks and some optimizations
  • New special cogs from ruins: Rusty cogs. If you destroy a rusty cog, you will only get unusable rusty parts, so be careful.

    Fix
  • Video memory leak of 5mo vram every time you save in the graphics settings.
  • Random crashes on alien outposts.

    Have fun!
