The first version of the train editor is ready!

Left-click on "Train editor" in the main menu to start making a new train from scratch, or right-click to open one of the existing trains. (It's easier to make a new train by modifying an old one.)

In the editor, right-click on empty space or parts of the train to change the graphics, sounds and physics of the vehicles. See the guide for more details:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2128160094

You can download more trains from the workshop. In order to use trains from the workshop, they first need to be assigned to a timetable. More information in this thread. There will be more timetables designed for the new trains and repaints in the future.

• Railcars now have a working handbrake. Don't forget to release it before moving off!
  
• The vacuum brake for the railcars has been changed to work by holding down the release or application key instead of a single press. You can control the rate of brake application or release by how much you move the handle. (The brake is still manually lapped instead of self-lapping like the Class 37 train brake.)
  
• Friction characteristics of cast-iron block brakes are now modelled correctly (brakes are stronger at low speeds)
  
• The default keys for changing vehicle and panel are now Shift+V and Shift+P respectively (avoiding accidental cab change when trying to brake)
  
• Gear might no longer engage properly unless throttle is closed before shifting
  
• Class 03 throttle handle moves faster and the right-hand side cab position faces backwards by default
  
• Class 37 loco brakes have been strengthened

• Fixed signaller bugs that caused it to clear some signals incorrectly
  
• Fixed trains that span multiple signal blocks to spawn correctly
  
• Improved train routing to reduce waiting times and prevent going through slow tracks for no reason
  
• Fixed signals to update properly when editing the track they're on
  
• Changed rescue scenarios to use Class 37 instead of 03 for heavy trains

• Added regency townhouses and Victorian factories by Sparky66 to the buildings library
  
• Fixed missing rail joints between some pairs of turnouts
  
• Fixed sounds sometimes not playing properly
  
• Fixed AI driver sometimes having problems starting uphill with a Class 03
  
• Fixed route editor making changes to the old route after saving as new
  
• Fixed timetables not being shown in the menu for a particular route, even when the timetable file is placed in that route's folder
  
• Various physics, graphics and audio improvements to the trains
  
• Fixed several crashes in editors and driving sim
  
• Small performance optimisations

A common feedback we've received is that the UI for Embark is too confusing. In the next update we will be overhauling the UI to include item icons, as well as streamlining the calculations for item stats so that they are easier to understand and can be clearly displayed.

All material types in Embark have a material strength stat. This will remain the same. The difference will be how this stat is used. Previously it was used as one of the factors in determining item strength, but the way the total was calculated was hidden and too obtuse.



The new system will simply calculate the item strength value by using the material strength modified by the quality. 0 quality gives the base material strength and 100 quality triples the material strength.


Processed materials like planks, blocks, and ingots will have the same strength values as their raw material counter parts. So a pine log and a pine plank of the same quality will have the same strength, but the quality roll for making the processed material will be added to the raw material, so the raw material quality is still important.


Items which are made by combining several materials will use the sum of their component strengths. Their quality will modify the total. So legendary items can have 3 x 3 or 9 times the strength of the base material.

The final item strength is simply added to character strength to get the final damage. The weapons are also differentiated more with different attack speeds. Because the item strength is the sum of the components, the larger, harder to research and make items will be much more powerful now.



All buildings now have an Ideal Strength and Difficulty Strength. A number of new buildings are planned, and will be the subject of another post. Buildings will also have the bonus they provide as a stat. This will replace the old building upgrade system. For example the bed is split into a normal bed and fancy bed. The fancy bed has a higher Ideal Strength but will provide a bigger bonus at 100% strength than the normal bed.

The Ideal Strength is simply the final item strength required to have a building which gives 100% of its bonuses.

The difficulty strength is the strength required for construction to have a 100% success rate. The early game buildings will not have a difficulty strength, but the mid and late game buildings will have progressively higher difficulty strengths. Failing construction means the loss of all items used.

A number of advanced items will also have a difficulty strength. The difficulty strength is only used during the creation of the item/building and has no other effect.

Replacing the old system where one could provide a bonus to item quality by using more materials, difficulty strength can be purposely added to provide a bonus to quality.

There are still some special cases. Blunt weapons will still use the density stat instead of material strength. Tools have an Ideal Strength but also have a base value as a bonus. The other item attributes like value, weight, and space remain the same.

Here's the list of changes in Angeldust v3.11:

Angeldust v3.11 lets you summon a creature right from the in-game shop. For a small fee you can call any previously ridden or tamed creature back into existence. A great way to show off your exquisite animal collection:



As this totally NOT Photoshopped® image shows, you:

1. buy the 'Summon a creature' action from the shop
   
2. select the creature to spawn
   
3. click the 'Summon' button to actually summon it

Literally as easy as 1, 2, 3.

The previous update introduced the 'Watch list' where you can monitor nearby player health and status. Angeldust v3.11 takes it one step further and shows all watched players on the world map, too:



Additionally, the world map will now continue to show the compass, the orientation bar and the watch list at the top of the screen. It's your one-stop shop for situational awareness.

Ever found an extremely rare creature? Tried to hunt it, but accidentally pressed the E-key and rode it? Players have gone furious—and fast—due to this. So there's now a menu option to restrict the saddle to riding only your currently ridden creature:



You might already have noticed that the Angeldust v3.11 update addresses long-standing issues and frustrations. Thanks to Hummm, ColtsWalker, obi-, Loki The Witful and others for reporting these.

This catchphrase had become a meme in itself. Angeldust v3.11 updates the Angeldust website, PlayAngeldust.com, with proper text placeholders:



So yeah, Alexi makarov—I went ahead and did it…

Even long-time Angeldust players didn't know that the E- and F-keys offer quick functionality in many in-game screens. Angeldust v3.11 introduces subtle hints to remind you of this:



Hopefully this prevents you looking back in ten years and realizing she was into you all along you could have sat, zoomed and filtered much quicker in Angeldust.

• Fix sitting pose switching on touchscreen devices
  
• Hide «» indicators for sitting or dancing heroes
  
• Fix land claim hints not showing when elevated or looking up

Greetings, Chosen Ones,

Only two weeks left until Othercide releases on July 28!

As Humanity’s last hope, lead your army of Daughters to combat in an intricate dance of spectacular actions and counters, and face fearsome bosses in epic battles. Today’s Gameplay Overview Trailer shows off exclusive footage, taking a deep dive into the tactical combat and progression systems that make up this dark indie gem.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oil-Kna3deI


In Othercide, the unique Dynamic Timeline System is at the core of every battle. Rather than simply controlling where and what your units do, you will also manipulate when things happen. This can be used in many ways, from interrupting an enemy attack before it even occurs, to unleashing a devastating series of combos.



Death will inevitably take you. Healing Daughters requires the sacrifice of another, and your forces cannot withstand the onslaught of Suffering forever. However, there is hope: each failed run opens up new game-changing abilities, options and opportunities for the next attempt.

Othercide comes to PC on July 28. Pre-order now on Steam and get 15% off. The Base Game + OST + Artbook Bundle is also available to pre-order on Steam, with an additional special discount.
