- Fixed a bug where a Friend needing rescue symbol was displayed at the Entrance of [Inside the Earth] during the escape event when the African White-faced Owl or Eagle Owl were not rescued.
- Fixed a bug where the "Boss battle time display" setting was copied to the config setting displayed below when loading data older than version 1.27.0 with version 1.27.0 or later.

For a while now I’ve been wanting to rework the terrain magic tool, and I’ve finally found time to improve the tool’s usability, functionality, and performance.



I’ve changed the name from Terrain (or Map) Magic to Noisemaker – more straightforward and should be less confusing to differentiate from the Terrain Wizard.



Now, each noise pattern selector animates to preview how the pattern looks. And, I added an optional overlay on the map that displays the active pattern.



The parameters are largely the same as before, but with additional text context instead of just icons. I also added a toggle to invert the active pattern’s colors.



And, like the image wizard, the noisemaker provides two resizable draggable areas, one for the active area and another for the full generation area. The full area determines how big the texture is and the system generates elevation/plants only within the bounds of the active area.



My primary focus for this update was to rework and optimize the backend system for reading texture data and using it to create elevation or spawn plants. I had previously disabled the functionality that enabled plant spawning since it wasn’t very performant.



I spent a lot of time figuring out the best way to distribute plants based on their size and on the color value of the texture at any given location/time. Parameterizing the system to control plant density and color cutoff was a bit of a headache, but I’m very happy with the result!



One thing to note about the Canopy Cover option, is that the system works one of two ways:
1) If you have a palette selected, the system uses all plants from that palette.
2) If you do not have a palette selected, the system chooses randomly from all plant assts


Previously, one of the downfalls of the Noisemaker was that you could not undo anything you made, which was problematic. It’s not so fun to experiment with a tool that could dramatically change your map if you can’t undo the changes!



In this update I added map state logging so that the blocks and plants are cached when you press play, and the changes are logged when you hit pause. This way you can make as much noise as you want and then revert changes if you need to.

• Fixed a bug that prevented certain model file types from importing.
  
• Fixed a bug where a blank settings file would not allow the application to start.

Enjoy!

This week at Bungie, we’re talking Season 18 mods, Arc 3.0, and some additional save the dates.

Not too much longer before our grand Showcase, Guardians, and believe me when I say that we cannot wait to show you all what’s next. It’ll be a fun time for all, but... August 23 isn’t quite here yet, so we’ve got some juicy morsels for you to mull over in the meantime. How does talking about Season 18 mods, more Showcase details, and a closer look at the next subclass rework sound to you? Sounds good? Great, let’s get into it.

Read all about it over on the Bungie Blog here.

- junk and gaff sails now reef in the opposite direction (except Al'Ankh gaffs)

Hello everyone!

August has been extremely busy for the team, with Tiny Teams 2022 being earlier this month and Emerald City Comic Con happening this weekend. Our composer, Crashtroid, will be there for on Friday and Saturday to show off and chat about the game! Make sure to keep an eye out for Peglin in the Indie Game Showcase!
Additionally, please give a big shoutout to our developer friend, Jaspel, for releasing Backpack Hero into Early Access! It’s another Roguelike game that we think Peglin players will quite enjoy, so we've bundled up and if you own Peglin you can get Backpack Hero for an extra 5% off their launch discount! We've also created the new Hero's Backpack relic to commemorate their release!

- Infernorb has a new functionality that burns shield pegs in one hit.
- Small art fixes for the Electropegnet and Forest background
- Changed the Japanese font so that the few broken characters are fixed
