• [modding] We changed the implementation for how MinEvents are dispatched. Modders who are handling a MinEvent in one of their IParts (e.g. bool HandleEvent( EnteringCellEvent ev ) need to update each HandleEvent declaration to include 'public override' (e.g. public override bool HandleEvent( EnteringCellEvent ev )) in order for that event to be dispatched properly to the part.

  • Swim-depth pools now interrupt autowalk unless you are already swimming, flying, or out of phase with the pool.
    
  • Some common liquid covering descriptions are now less verbose.
    
  • Salt now only stains items when encountered in its pure form.
    
  • Made the container preference for liquid collection more consistent. The order is: containers designated for autocollection of the liquid, then devices that use the liquid, then containers that already contain pure liquid of that type, then empty containers.
    
  • You can now collect liquids into slotted liquid-fueled energy cells.
    
  • Collecting a liquid now reports on which containers the liquid was collected into.
• Small spheres of negative weight now add to your weight when they're broken or otherwise inoperative.

• Artifacts with proper names are no longer treated as having proper names while unidentified.
  
• On the classic trade screen, we switched 'interact with the selected item' from the Tab key to the Space key. Tab now selects and deselects all items on the active column of the trade screen, as an analog to its take-all function in looting menus.

• Miner bots no longer generate mines based on modded grenades.
  
• NPCs are now less interested in using random items from their inventories as improvised weapons.

  • [very redacted]
  
  
  General notes
  
• We made some changes to liquid and liquid pool behavior.
  
  • Objects now become coated in liquid more easily, and they also lose their liquid coatings more easily.
    
  • Liquid coating now bestows additional weight onto items.
    
  • Some liquids now weigh more than others.
    
  • Creatures moving through big pools of liquid now track the liquid around.
    
  • Footwear now protects you from being affected by small pools of liquid.
    
  • Swimming is now a status effect that penalizes movespeed and prevents creatures from taking move-related actions that require footing.
    
  • Pools smaller than the swimming threshold (1,000 drams) now use a different tile set.
    
  • Small puddles now evaporate over time.
    
  • Aquatic creatures now receive a -25 penalty to movespeed instead of the full -50. (The Swimming skill's +25 bonus offsets this penalty.)
    
  • Pathfinding now puts more weight toward pathing around large pools of liquids, even less deadly ones.
• More autoexplore activities now respect the autoexplore options for ignoring easy and distant enemies.
  
• Electromagnetic sensors and the following mutations now interrupt autoexplore and automove when you identify a hostile creature: Heightened Hearing, Heightened Smell, and Sense Psychic.
  
• Autowalking on the worldmap now avoids the Rainbow Wood.
  
• Autoexplore now passes through tiles that contain animated walls if those walls are in your party.
  
• We changed the way acid damage is calculated. Exposure to either dilute acid or small acid pools now deals less damage.
  
• Metal items now take quarter damage from acid.
  
• Salty water now generates half as much steam when vaporized. Brackish water generates 90% as much.
  
• Lacquered items now note in their descriptions that they repel liquids (this is behavior they always had).
  
• Steam now only damages organic objects.
  
• You can now retrieve items from owned containers that you put in them without triggering hostility.
  
• The take-all command now skips the weight limit warning if you're already over your weight limit.
  
• Lay Mine and Set Bomb now allow you to press escape from the explosive selection menu to abort the command.
  
• Stairs, pits, and similar objects that represent open space can no longer be sucked into space-time vortices.
  
• When you're selecting an item to equip from the equipment menu, items listed within a given category are now sorted in descending order by a rough utility evaluation. This sort method was there previously, but code was since introduced that disrupted it.
  
• Colored text now displays more reliably across multiple lines in the text UI sidebar.
  
• Added a black outline to the overlay XP and HP readout numbers.
  
• Fixed a bug that sometimes prevented the penalties from the Engulfed status effect from being removed when the effect wore off.
  
• [modding] We added a markup layer to our text coloring system. Example: {{red|this text will be red}}. This lets us treat color specification as a stack, so that text's color can be reset to the previously specified color at the end of a block. (Previously, we would try to emulate this behavior by resetting color to default grey [&y], but grey wasn't always the last specified color.) The markup layer also supports shaders that apply color patterns to text blocks. Color names and shaders are defined in a new moddable file, Colors.xml.
  
• [modding] Added a "beguile" wish that forces the target into your party.
  
• [modding] Med names may now be extended by applying the [MedNamesExtension] attribute and implementing the IMedNamesExtension { int Priority(); void OnInitializeMedNames( List<string> medNames ); } interface.
  
  
• [modding] Fixed a bug that caused the JoppaWorldBuilderExtension and WorldBuilderExtension attributes to be ignored.
  
  
  
  

200.20: We've posted an update on the beta branch.

• [modding] The ability of NPCs to repair, recharge, and identify artifacts in the trade screen is no longer controlled by the CanRepair, CanRecharge, and CanIdentify properties. Instead, it's determined by the relevant tinkering skills. (Repair enables the repair action, Tinker I enables recharge, and Gadget Inspector enables identify, with Tinker II, Tinker III, Intelligence modifier, and any relevant equipment contributing to identification performance.)
