Infinite Mode Rework:

  • After jumping out of the starting area there are now 3 stage types: mining zones, mission zones and boss encounters.

  • Mining Zones work like before, hold out as long as possible to mine resources. You can jump out as soon as the drive recharges.

  • Mission Zones have a secondary objective that must be completed before you can jump away, objectives with a fail state let you jump away without earning the mission bonus.

  • Boss encounters pit your fleet against unique and powerful enemies. There’s a cooldown period after defeating the boss, allowing you to regroup and jump to the next area when ready.

  • A notification will now play when you can jump.

Improvements:

  • You can now sell multiple ships in Command Mode using the sell hotkey (default: g), won't sell critical ships, free perk ships, or ships being flown by players.

  • New capital ship AI is now much better at spacing.

  • Reworked buy buttons to improve clarity, added audio feedback to ship buying.

  • Enemy scout mission text now displays the number of remaining targets.

  • Reduced ice biome brightness.

  • Cleaned up Nuke explosion effect.

Fixes:

  • You can no longer sell free ships supplied by fleet perks.

  • Fixed impact sfx that weren’t respecting the master volume setting.

  • Fixed HUD radar vibrating when the camera moved on the Y-axis.

  • Fixed several more objects with light layers that were strobing in command mode.

  • Fixed fleet perks running after Mothership is defeated.

  • Fixed broken buy button selection animation.

  • Fixed Shark ragdoll skeleton.

Balance:

  • Reduced Revenant damage from 150 to 130.

  • Leviathan bio torpedoes are now interceptable.

  • Reduced enemy spawn frequency on stage 5 ‘Metallic Clouds’.

Performance Improvements:

  • Reduced AI target finding memory usage.

  • Reduced frequency of healer target checking.
