I've been taking a break, catching up on movies and writing and drawing, so this update isn't too crazy but has lots of little things. In Version 50 I hope to add lots of new creatures and map variation. (However since there are big changes in my life, I might not be able to work on it as quickly as I worked on Version 45.) Edit: Sorry, I'm not as active on Steam so I forgot to mention here: Lethal Company won the Better With Friends award! Thank you, that is so cool.
Version 47 Notes: - Added replayable challenge moons * These are weekly moons that use the same random seed for everyone, based off the current week using the UTC time zone. The profit you make at the end of the challenge day will be uploaded to a leaderboard so you can compare your efficiency to your friends. * The challenge moons also have randomly generated names, increased amounts of scrap, random starting credits, and other randomly tweaked properties. * The point of this is less for competition and more to give us all a shared experience. It will also give even the most seasoned employees a challenge; I have no idea what moons will be generated for the months to come, but some of them will surely be crazier than others. * If you're using a modded client, turn off all mods to guarantee you get the same moon as everyone else. - Position of random lightning strikes, the destination of the inverse teleporter, contents of gift boxes, and the precise positions of scrap items are now deterministic and based off the random seed.
- Added the server tag feature for the public lobbies list. Type in a tag exactly to filter by servers that were created with that tag.
- Added a new type of hallway to the factory map type. * For now I'll continue to add more rooms and variety to the current indoor map types, rather than adding new map types.
Changes to existing enemies: - The thumper's movement has been reworked so its animations and acceleration should be more consistent. * The thumper speeds up slightly faster after being hit, but its turn speed drops off more reliably when it reaches high speed. - The bunker spider now becomes slightly faster when it is almost dead. - The bunker spider's webs have a slightly larger collision radius. - The forest giant is more likely to leave the ship alone after chasing a player near it. - Slightly increased the audible range of the coilhead's footsteps. - Made nutcrackers able to move slightly while aiming * They only do this if they've fired at the same person several times - Made the jester take longer to begin cranking
- Added a new journal entry - Modified the bunker spider file to patch some confusing continuinity
- You can now take a small amount of damage when falling from a slightly lesser height. * The height damage increases are intended to make verticality feel more important; for example I felt Titan's return trips were too simple for its level of reward.
Fixes : - Fixed an issue introduced in the previous version where landmines instantly exploded when touching them, rather than waiting for players to step off.
- Made shovel collisions more consistent; you can now hit enemies around corners and nearby objects without it blocking the shovel.
- Fixed an issue
