Hello all!

We have been gathering feedback from community forums and watching various streamers play Sipho and got a nice list of notes that we are addressing with this update!

Budlings now feel much safer next to their parents and should not run away from big enemies. Especially those enemies who are threatening their mother colony!

There seems to be a disturbing lack of self-preservation among your offspring...

Enemy AI has been tweaked to be less aggressive to enemies that are much smaller than them - that makes more sense to make them dispose of something that is more threatening and only then go after small ones. The change is most impactful when the small one is the player!

A lot of bugfixes and performance have been done - especially related to level spawning and whirlpool level destruction. While there are things to optimise further, we hope this will help with stuttering a lot.

• More robust way of holding consumables should fix Polyp sometimes causing consumables to be unholdable
  
• Do not update Environment Grid if things have recently been spawned

• Optimize whirlpool level destruction
  
• Tweak Advena areas
  
• Cache level spawner texture values - improves performance for levels based on texture lookup spawning

• Add Tooltip to separate canvas in Main Menu
  
• Mover camera fast while in transition - fixes camera flying around after entering new zones
  
• Fix growth zooid type categories not being disabled correctly

• Refactor enemy spawning to allow having different enemy counts per campaign level. Adjust enemy aggressiveness and counts
  
• Add option to slow down game simulation if it is unable to keep up with target framerate
  
• Alphas are guaranteed to drop relevant mutations
  
• Fix whirlpools not spawning in Freeroam
  
• Saenus Boss 3 creates currents a bit more rarely. Other boss fight enemies never flee
  
• Pathfinder completes its path requests when setting new ones
  
• Allow Mutations have differently constructed titles for localization. Add missing translations.
  
• Refactor how campaign sipho zooids get swapped for variety - dynamically determine if swapping is possible instead of being hardcoded. Fixes enemies with impossible layouts appearing
  
• Megalocyst explodes instantly instead of 0.1sec delay
  
• Do not regenerate health when losing nutrition to overnutrition - fixes some bosses healing themselves for a while before allowing themselves to be over-dps'ed
  
• Make Advena campaign areas a bit wider to navigate
  
• Boss battle arena does not care if there is null sinkable to sink
  
• Fix zooid info tooltip text to contain proper newlines
  
• Better Leader following AI for minion Siphos
  
• Enemies are less likely to attack smaller enemies
  
• Display zooid type next to breed name in the tooltips
  
• Improve some zooid descriptions
  
• Fix leech teleporting
  
• Mutation generation can skip types - allows Abrasive mutation to be applicable to Puffer, but not be generated for Structures
  
• Enemy Spawner tracks and manages children of the children as well - fixes boss arenas sometimes being stuck after killing a boss
  
• Siphos drop recently eaten nutrition if they're killed fast enough
  
• Don't clump up enemies when spawning
  
• Correctly dispose of player minions when starting new Epoch

• Revert to shape matching correctly when detecting NaN deformation values
  
• Add obstacle inside shrimpy's centre so nothing gets moved or spawned in it
  
• Cra'Than second boss waits before attacking
  
• Update Environment Grid over several frames - reduces stuttering
  
• Update pathfinding grid 1 chunk over time as now obstacle spawners spawn more consistently
  
• Obstacle spawners update chunks dynamically over several frames
  
• Do not spawn sizzler arc if distance is lower than 0.1 - fixes arcs flying away
  
• Claw Weapons and Twister Swirls have unlimited overlaps
  
• Fix flower petals in Buginis areas and enable their fade-outs
  
• Polyp damages their target immediately when attaching
  
• Use realtime in breed selection breed chosen animation so the animation isn't affected by time scale
  
• Align level spawners with Environment Grid chunks - better overlap checking, better performance.
  
• Give spawner manager one frame delay to spawned chunk checking - should allow physics to catch up and have valid raycast queries
  
• Improve Enemy Spawner checking for unspawned chunks - include radius in search so moving spawned enemy is guaranteed to not later overlap the enemy

Even though the release of patch 2.0, Community Content and the Beyond eXtreme DLC took longer than we had planned, we hope that you will enjoy it!

Thanks for all the feedback many of you brought forward. We took your feedback to heart and set on the goal to bring improvements into Park Beyond that you have been asking for. For all those new to Park Beyond: Welcome! And to all others returning: Welcome back!

Patch 2.0 is packed with improvements to help you better understand path placement and path connections with an all-new highlighting system that shows you where path intersections can be created. Path visuals and railings can now be changed after placement and the path snapping logics were improved on queue/exit placement.

You are now able to order Mechanics and Janitors to your rides, shops and facilities and have better indications of your idling staff. All Sandbox maps received a completely overhauled and improved lighting with a new day & night cycle to really make your parks shine at night!

Object Placement and working with groups and prefabs has gotten even easier with multiple Quality of Life improvements. We added a new Heatmap to identify the visitors in your park who are looking for ATMs. And we overall improved the ride utilization and game progression through the rising park levels, reduced the importance of need providers, and re-balanced several missions.

On top of these and many more smaller improvements, we tried to get as many bug fixes into this version as we could.

We are looking forward to seeing and playing with your creations that you share through the new Community Content feature and we hope that you will have a blast with this patch 2.0!

Please continue to share all your thoughts and feedback with us because we are already starting to work on the next patches and updates to come. Thank you!

Hello truckers!

We’re fast approaching our PC launch date of October 18 and we’ve been working nonstop to take on board all the feedback we received during our playtests and make sure Alaskan Road Truckers is ready to hit the road.

With a couple of days to go - here’s what’s currently happening with Alaskan Road Truckers!


The feedback, bug reports, and other ideas we’ve received from our community has been amazing. We’ve made tons of updates following our recent playtests, here’s some changes our community has requested that we’ve been able to implement already:

Snow markers in the North of the map - The real Dalton Highway has snow markers to make sure you’re driving on the road when things get a little cold. We enjoyed not being able to see the road when it’s snowing but we decided, after getting some feedback, that this wasn’t enjoyable for everyone. So snow markers are in - you’ll know exactly where the road is, no matter the weather.

Mouse won’t interrupt steering wheel - During playtests when you nudged your mouse, it would interrupt inputs from steering wheels. This wasn’t actually a bug, in fact it was a setting that was togglable in the options. However, after reports that this was bothering players, we decided to remove the option and make it so that when you’re using a steering wheel, you won’t find it disconnected by mouse movements anymore.

Camera centering - Some players didn’t enjoy having the camera center itself automatically when driving. So we’ve made it a button instead! If you want to be looking straight ahead, just hit the assigned key and you’ll be staring straight ahead. If not - there’ll be no interruptions.

Where’s the snow? - The playtest started players near the beginning of Spring. While we don’t want to throw players in at the deep end, we do know that many of you are anxious to get stuck into the colder parts of the year. As a result of this feedback, players will now start a new game at the beginning of Summer, meaning Winter and all its hazards is that much closer.

Force feedback - One of the key bits of feedback we received was that force feedback was too strong. We don’t want to shake your desk to pieces, so we’ve made improvements to ensure different types of steering wheels have appropriate levels of force feedback.

In addition to those changes, we’ve made tons of fixes, updates, and tweaks to the game. And more will be coming! Our work on Alaskan Road Truckers isn’t finished at launch, we’re going to add to the game, fix bugs, and be working on it before, during, and after the game comes out. So keep your feedback coming - especially after launch. As Frasier Crane says: we’re listening.


Speaking of feedback, we have a request to make. After you’ve played the game for at least 2-3 hours please leave a Steam review. Steam reviews are critical to a game’s success; the more reviews we get, the more visibility we get, and the more people will see it. The more people see the game, the better we’ll do, and the better we do, the more we can support and expand our game.

Please note we’re not asking for you to leave a positive review. We want you to voice your honest opinion about the game. If you love it (and we hope you will), we want to hear that. If you don’t - then we want to hear that too.

So if you can, please leave us a Steam review once the game is out and you’ve played it for a few hours. You can always edit your opinion or expand upon it later, should you so wish.

To keep up to date with all the updates and news for Alaskan Road Truckers, head over to our Steam Store page to wishlist and follow Alaskan Road Truckers. Every wishlist helps us in making sure Alaskan Road Truckers is a success.

Due to the high demand and incredible support from our community, we’ve decided to extend the Histera demo!

That’s right – you’ll have more time to dive into the glitchy battleground, explore the dynamic maps, and experience the heart-pounding action of Histera. We want to make sure everyone has the opportunity to enjoy the demo and provide valuable feedback as we continue to refine the game.


We’re committed to making Histera the best it can be, and your feedback is crucial in achieving that goal. Don’t forget to report any issues or share your experiences through the in-game bug report tool or in our Discord channel.

Your enthusiasm and feedback have been invaluable, and we can’t thank you enough for your ongoing support. We look forward to continuing to see what you think of Histera. Stay tuned for more updates, and we’ll see you in the arena!

The demo will now end on October 18th 2023, at 12 AM PST / 9 AM CEST.

The chart below doesn’t really do justice to the magnitude of the changes. This journal entry will talk about it.




First, let me introduce myself. I’m Brad Wardell. I designed the original Galactic Civilizations for OS/2 back in 1992 which went into beta in (wait for it) October 1993 which is when I incorporated Stardock from my dorm room in college. Back then, I designed, programmed and did most of the art (poorly).

When our company moved to Microsoft Windows, I designed the Windows versions of Galactic Civilizations I and II.

Then I took a break from GalCiv to go co-found Oxide Games and Mohawk Games with my friends and with the money we had earned selling Impulse to GameStop.

After GalCiv IV was released in April 2022, I began to take a long look at the game. It had been a long time since I’d really looked at GalCiv. During GalCiv III, I designed the Crusade expansion but just didn’t have the opportunity to work on GalCiv much until recently.

I saw what they were going for with GalCiv IV but I really wanted to take the game in a different direction. And the Steam release was the opportunity to do that. So for the past several months, my life has been all GalCiv. If you’re on Discord or the forums you probably see me as Frogboy or Draginol (a character that came from the original GalCiv lore I wrote back in the 1990s). It would not be an exaggeration to say that this game has been my life for the past few months.

If you liked GalCiv II, you will probably like GalCiv IV. If you liked GalCiv III, you…hopefully will like GalCiv IV.

And this isn’t the end. Not by any means. I feel like we’ve just scratched the surface with what this game can do. And with your help, we’re going to do things that no space strategy game has ever done.

• Sorted an error to the creation code of the Kingfishers, which was causing the game to constantly crash.

Sorry!

As you may know, every update brings excitement and new adventures for players of American Truck Simulator. With the upcoming 1.49 update, we are introducing an awesome addition that will allow players to delve into an unmarked area like never before. Hidden within the vast landscape of Washington, a realistic recreation of the PACCAR Technical Center awaits discovery!


For years, the PACCAR Technical Center has been the epicenter of innovation and development for renowned truck manufacturers, Kenworth and Peterbilt. This facility has been instrumental in testing trucks, powertrains, technologies, and more, and it's where the giants of the trucking industry push the boundaries of what's possible, creating the next generation of iconic trucks.

On our recent trips to the United States, we were fortunate to receive exclusive invitations from PACCAR to visit their Technical Center. While our primary purpose was to conduct sound recording sessions and 3D scanning of both legendary and new truck models, during our interactions with the team at PACCAR, a shared vision emerged. We realized that bringing the PACCAR Technical Center experience to ATS players would be a fantastic opportunity as we wanted to offer players the chance to explore this testing ground, just as we did. And so, with a shared passion for trucking, we set out to recreate this remarkable place in the ATS universe.




In the upcoming ATS 1.49 update, you will have the chance to experience the PACCAR Technical Center firsthand. This realistic 1:1 recreation will offer a glimpse into the world of truck development, and even though the area won't be readily visible on the in-game map and UI, it will be waiting for curious players to discover. But rest assured, intrepid truckers will quickly uncover this hidden treasure once the update lands on Steam.



While the entire area has plenty of interesting bits to explore, we’ve decided to add an extra layer of excitement, a small Easter egg will be parked within the PACCAR Technical Center itself. We challenge you to keep your eyes peeled and see if you can spot this surprise.



We can’t wait to show you more content that is coming with the 1.49 update over the upcoming weeks. Make sure to follow our social media (X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok) to always stay in touch with all the latest announcements and while you’re at it, let us know what you think about the PACCAR Technical Center showcased today.
