Faraway Islands changes
Hello everyone
In this update I finished sound system and planting, added some new items like more types of arrow and fixed several bugs. With complete sound system, sounds like footsteps and button clicks were added and more will be implemented in next updates. In next update I will have to change parts of game saving code so old save files (0.0.1.3 and below) won't be functional anymore. Complete list of new features, tweaks and bugfixes below:
Added
Footstep sound on grass, sand, wood, dirt and water
Hit sound for rock and iron plate
Slingshot sound
Second HUD slot for ammunition (arrows, pebbles, …)
More arrows (stick, flint, iron) that differs by accuracy
Arrows and other items in second slot can be switched with 'X' by default
Switching key 'X' in keyboard setting
Sapling for planting trees
Chance of dropping sapling from trees
Cottonseed for planting cotton
Chance of dropping cottonseed from when harvesting it
Sounds to all buttons in menu
Field is now build through building menu, not with hoe (old field will still be loaded but can be only destroyed by hoe and can't be planted again)
Collect sound for items on ground, berries and cotton
Spade durability decrease when digging
Sound for typing in inputboxes
Sound for opening and closing door and chest
Sound for destroying objects and buildings by hammer
Sound for water splash when fishing
Removed
Ability to equip berries and wheat
Ability to craft scythe (will be removed completely with future updates)
Creating fields with hoe
Defense and Misc group from building menu
Changes and fixes
New drinking sound
Switched sides of hotkey number and amount number drawn on inventory slots
Cotton item image has been changed
Bushes image and collision mask were improved
Cotton plant collision mask is slightly larger
Moving sticks or other burnable items to firepit/furnace with Shift key, did not add fuel to it
Ignite button in furnace interface was slightly transparent when highlighted by cursor
