Zipline

Is moving around too slow on foot? Are the survivors always forced to take the long way around? Now it is not an issue! We've added a simple zipline system. Once you anchor both ends on the map, characters can move faster and traverse terrain from top to bottom. Well, it might not be as convenient as you imagined, but when they "whoosh" down, don't you find it fun? The zipline have more mysterious function you can us. From primitive tribes to modern technology, there's still a long way to go!

Character Starting Attributes Randomization

Attention!You might now have genius dweller and clueless ones! Flouting island now features randomized attribute generation at character birth. The four core attributes—collection,production , construction and research—will fluctuate within a specific range at birth, giving each dweller unique abilities from the start. Whether it's a surprise or a shock, it's just like scratching a ticket !

Character Attribute Development System

Attribute Levels: Characters' attributes are divided into five levels: Basic < standard < Improved< Superior < Peak, each corresponding to different attribute value ranges and unlocking capabilities.

Work Attribute Level Requirements: Every work type (such as construction, demolition,fix, gathering, and research) now has corresponding attribute level requirements. For example, basic gathering requires 0 points in the gathering attribute, while standard research requires at least 21 points in the research attribute. Characters can't accomplish these tasks if they don’t meet the required attribute level.

Sounds complicated? To put it simply, as a leader, your task is to "raise your kids!"

Character Attribute Learning System

Mysterious Stone Platform: Mysterious stone platforms will appear randomly on the world map. Rare books will spawn on these platforms, and collecting them will significantly speed up the rate at which dweller learn corresponding attributes, greatly improving the efficiency of attribute development.

Books and Training: We've added a vast library of books on the floating island, covering a wide range of subjects such as "Advanced Mechanical" and "Advanced Mathematics."Dwellers can study the subjects by choosing books from the bookshelf. Every study session will spend some time, and upon completion, the character's corresponding attribute value will increase.

The process dwellers can't avoid —chopping trees, eating, and going to school!

Statistics Station and Associated Technology

Dwellers have finally learned how to build the long-awaited Statistics Station from mysterious ancient treasure! This high-efficiency building can summarize key information about the floating island, such as the population, the number of idle or trapped characters, etc. It also allows custom display of various resource reserves, helping you quickly grasp the state of the island!

The handbook of dweller

The handbook of dweller , once the essential survival guide for every dweller, is now available in the top right corner of the screen! The handbook contains all the knowledge you need to live on the floating island, complete with image-based guides. Make sure to check it out!

Interface Overhaul

We’ve redesigned the work management interface, categorizing tasks like gathering, production, construction, research, and supply with labels for easy viewing.

When placing building or facility blueprints, we've added an
