Build Limits Someone asked that size limits on spacecraft and buildings be eliminated.
Eliminated size limits on buildings and spacecraft. Specifically this refers to byte size limits, the amount of memory the thing takes. Physical dimension limits were not changed.
You still get a warning when the size limit is exceeded but it never turns into an error.
Beware that you can now build models that are too complex for your computer or perhaps someone else's computer. While your computer may be able to handle a single instance of your gigantic ship or building model, it could bog down quite quickly if you create many of them.
Random Flag Generator This has been on my list forever. When testing I usually don't care too bad. AI controlled emperors need this.
Flag chooser created that allows flags to be loaded from a file or generated randomly.
Mission Order Icons Mission order window uses a generic sun icon to represent a black hole.
Changed mission orders to use an icon based on body type for suns and worlds. Also updated city lists to show bases with a different icon.
Quarry Shows Non-Stone It is confusing to have the quarry show non-stone resources when it can't mine them.

This is a very early build of the standalone sequel to Into The Inferno and there is a lot more content to add between now and release, but if you'd like to give it a try, it's good demonstration of how some of the game mechanics have changed, particularly the larger party size and new character classes.
I plan to update it as development progresses, aiming for monthly releases, give or take. Enjoy. :)
Greetings, dear players! First of all, we want to thank you for being here on Day 1, it means the world to us. With this hotfix, we addressed 2 ctitical bugs that caused most of the problems. We'll continue working on new patches, and we understand the responsibility to those who have waited so long for the game. We also want to thank all the streamers - watching the players exploring our New Fortune City for the first time was priceless.
Patch 1.0.1 Changelog:
• Server Browser - Removed "full" servers completely so now you will see only the servers that have free slots. • Fixed that the door from Leonard's room sometimes could not be opened.
We've also added some necessary sound fixes. We're continuing to monitor the situation, and we'll release new hotfixes as soon as possible. Thank you!
CHARACTER ARCHETYPE - Hybrid Chain Grappler / Long Reach QUICK BIO - A skillful and agile practitioner of an ancient grappling art, Nyra is also the wielder of a peculiar set of extra limbs that bonded to her from her home village’s shrine.
Alagaratnam Nyra comes from a small village in the remote island of Sattva Bhūmi. This jungle island, who’s name means “Land of purity”, is a mythic natural wonder, relatively unspoiled by industry.
Wise beyond her years, Nyra is schooled in the spiritual as well as the sacred fighting arts of her people (an ancient form of grappling). For Nyra, each battle holds a lesson to be learned, which brings her closer to enlightenment.
Nyra’s village held an ancient idol statue, said to be a guardian deity for the inhabitants of the island. After disaster strikes the island from outside invaders, seeking to strip the island of its lush resources, Nyra’s people are forced to flee. Miraculously, their sacred statue awoke amidst the chaos and chose to bonded with Nyra, bestowing the otherworldly extra limbs known as the “iron lotus”, further enhancing her already formidable fighting skills.
Newly arrived in New Libertis, the bustling metropolis of the New World, Nyra has quickly made a name for herself in underground fight clubs as a fighting spectacle, but her true motives are to learn more about the shadowy hands that caused the destruction of her homeland. FALCORP Industries is likely the culprit, in their quest to usurp and exploit powerful energy sources for their products, weapons, and machines.
BASIC STRATEGY
Nyra is an agile grappler with a number of tricks up her sleev-- err, extra arms. Quick and nimble up close, she has a number of long ranged normals, such as her jumping D, standing D and crouching D.
Nyra's extra limbs (her Iron Lotus) act as resources, giving Nyra access to mid-screen range throws, follow-up chain grabs, extended strike combos, strings and much more. Once these limbs are used, they'll burn out. If they all burn out, you won’t have access to her extra moves. However, each arm will naturally restore after a set amount of time.
GRABHA - CHAIN COMMAND GRAB
Nyra's signature move is Grabha [Quarter Circle Forward, A+B], a command grab. It might seem simple, but it is anything but that.
If it whiffs, she can quickly use her extra arms to attempt Lamba Grabha twice. Lamba Grabha reaches further and further with the additional benefit of reaching into other lanes.
Upon scooping up your opponent, Nyra can choose from several different follow-up sequences depending on how many arms are available– including a devastating elbow drop, a wall-bounce combo extension, a fake out and much more.
At the cost of an arm resource, she can chain into Prithvi Mata [Down w/ any button], elbow dropping into her opponent putting them in an untechable knockdown state. Throw loops? She's got them.
Trying to extend your damage? Trade in an arm resource with Golden Catapult [Forward w/ any button], and she'll throw her opponent forward-- causing a wall-bounce, giving your team the chance to extend your combo.
There’s a ton more follow-up possibilities! We implore you to experiment with Nyra and find out what mix-ups you’ll have within arms’ reach.
RANGASRAMA KAAM OORJA - GUARD CANCEL
Nyra also has the ability to use her extra limb resources for defensive purposes. If Nyra is currently blocking (on the ground OR in the air), she can cancel out of her block animation to go straight for an explosive Rangasrama Kaam Oorja (note the first letter of each word), turning the tables on overcommitting opponents.
SURYA BHEDANA - INSTALL MELTDOWN
Nyra has a THREE meltdown supers in her arsenal– all named after Yogic breath names. For this demonstration, we'll show off her Surya Bhedana [Quarter Circle Forward, A+C].
This move gives Nyra the ultimate ability to constantly launch a barrage of punches, activating every time a button is pressed for a limited amount of time. This gives you the ability to string together combos and juggles in almost any way. Experiment with this meltdown and see what you can do!
Playtest 2 is soon!
Remember! Nyra, Eleanora, and the original four will be fully playable during the 2nd playtest, taking place on December 13th @ 10:00 AM PT until January 3rd @ 11:59PM PT! Get ready for the ultimate smackdown.
Week 105 is here, and with it, the start of our third year of Icarus.
This week we’re adding three new Rustic Sign variations in both ground and floor variations, with a more ‘raw’ design than the standard wood sign.
We’ve also got a ton of information on upcoming updates and features for all the new players who have joined us from our recent Free Weekend.
These are all scheduled for next year, as our team will be focusing on smaller updates over the Christmas break while spending time with their families. However, you can still expect some big features like our Batteries and Electrical Network soon, and our weekly updates will continue just like they have for the last two years.
Jump in and have a read.
Notable Improvements:
Added Icons behind the armor slots, light slot and bulk slots
Fixed an issue with the hotbar hotkeys not showing correct keys when rebound
Fixed fur issues on bear rugs
You can now right click to drop animal carcasses while focused and carrying them
This week: Rustic Signs
This week we’ve added three new Raw Wood Signs each with a ground and wall mounting variation.
These are unlockable at Tier 1 and craftable on the player, requiring wood, sticks and fiber.
These have a more rustic look than the refined look of the standard wood sign, so would suit a cabin-style base.
Coming Soon: Batteries & Networks Update
Batteries are in their internal testing phase and we’re actively fixing issues with the changes made to the electricity system, many of which affect existing items that now have to be updated.
Batteries will be an adjustment to how the energy generation system works as they’ll provide an ‘off-peak’ storage system that allows you to keep working around the clock. This means we also need to make changes to how machines operate with an energy source, so certain machines will slow or stop when underpowered.
Coming Soon: Taming Expansion
Another large update coming soon is our Taming Expansion, where we’ll be adding a ton of depth to the mounts system.
This includes adding levels to mounts, their own unique talent trees and even mounts being transferable from one prospect to another.
This is a substantial amount of content to add and is still in early development. We’ll keep you updated as we make progress.
Future Updates
We have a lot of new players this week, so we wanted to give you a look into some of the content we’ll be adding over the next few months, as a mix of weekly updates and larger updates.
Bees
Wild Bee Hives will spawn around the map and will host aggressive bees that you’ll have to deal with. You’ll also be able to raise Domestic Bee Hives to harvest honeycomb for honey and beeswax.
More animals
We’ll also be adding Bats, Kiwi birds, Sheep and Chickens in a range of wild and domesticated versions. You can expect basic consumables such as eggs, wool, and more.
In-game Icarus Wiki
A Prospect Field Guide will provide information on every in-game item, including how to craft it, where to obtain it, what sets they belong to and more. This will also link to the Bestiary and Fishing Book, creating a network of valuable information.
Water Rework
The Water System will be receiving a rework adding devices that clean water and provide buffs when drinking clean/purified water. We’ll also adjust fluids, including letting you add tea/cocoa/coffee and other drinks to your canteens, rather than needing a separate craftable item.
Turrets
Many of you have theorized this is something we’ve been working on, and your theories have been correct. We’re working on a Tier 4 turret system that can autonomously defend your base and attack creatures that stray too close.
Prometheus Map Expansion
The Prometheus Map in our New Frontiers Expansion will be receiving two new regions and Operations with a very different feel than the rest of the biomes. These will be focused on hardcore survival, with limited resources and intense weather that renders the map unusable.
Next Week: Biomore Backpack
Next week's update will be a new Biomore Backpack for the team’s medic. This will give the user the ability to play the support role, providing damage boosts and health regen buffs for coming in and reviving downed teammates.
If you like what we’re doing with Icarus, and want to support our continued development, consider purchasing one of our DLCs for a few dollars, it would mean a lot to us.
