This patch addresses some longstanding issues and much-requested features!
-Added a short intro message containing info about the beta! This is more for my peace of mind than anything else. There's still lots in the works for minicology, not just content! Version 1.0 should be significantly more optimized, stable, and balanced.
-Controls are now remappable! Will probably add some more options such as disabling/remapping hotbar scroll & shift+clicking at some point, but for now should be quite the improvement for those who were unhappy with the default control scheme
-"Throw Item" is now mapped to 'T' instead of right-click. Right-clicking will now return an item to hotbar. If there is no space in the hotbar, right-clicking will still toss items!
-Item friction increased. They should slide less when thrown!
-Three new accessories added: +Craftsmen's notebook is an easy-to-craft accessory that allows you to keep track of recent recipes and bookmark researched recipes on the left of the screen! +Toolbelt increases interaction radius, letting you build faster and further. Find it in pirate forts! +Master belt can be crafted by combining the two. More accessories will likely be added to this crafting tree at some point, giving players a nice new option to flesh out their build for the more mundane activities of building and crafting!
We hope you all are doing fine and that you had a lot of fun with our last season 17. Thanks to everyone who participated and as always we want to shine a spotlight on the top 25!
You can see a list of the full leaderboards for the past season in our Discord.
We also have some smaller news regarding the daily rides. We often get feedback that the night-rides and the freerides can sometimes be too hard. So we decided to adjust them a little bit. In the future both modes will come with only one additional modifier and we also removed the “Many Obstacles” modifier from the possible combinations for these modes.
We hope you all have a relaxing season break and see you back on the 26th of October for season 18!
