Mechanica 1.1.3: Defenses Update (Part 1)

This update is the first of two adding more defensive objects. In addition to this, several new crafting components have been added. These include the plant threads, cloth, and rope. Plant threads are obtained from new desert plants that are scattered throughout the map.

Additions

• Added primitive compactor trap.

• Added advanced compactor trap.

• Added spinning blade trap.

• Added laser sentry.

• Added primitive rake trap.

• Added basic bear trap.

• Added plant threads.

• Added cloth.

• Added rope.

• Added desert plants to the map (source of plant threads).

• Added rope and cloth crafting options to the auto-crafter.

Changes

• Reduced the crafting cost of several defensive objects.

• Converted the existing bear trap into a 'computerized bear trap'. This has been done to differentiate it from the newly added basic bear trap. The model has been modified slightly.

• Couches are now craftable.

• Lounge chairs now craftable.

• Made paintings slightly thicker so that they can be placed on base walls without overlapping issues.

• Reduced the size of the power info display.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a loading bug that prevented welds from loading correctly for non-host players in multiplayer games.

• Fixed a bug that caused functions to disappear. It was more common in save files with many programmable objects.

• Fixed a bug in F.R.A.N.K's behavior that caused him to return to his factory immediately after being spawned. This resulted in many players not encountering F.RA.N.K. when they should have.

• Fixed a networking issue with the sentry.

• Fixed rake trap models bugging out under certain circumstances in multiplayer games.

• Fixed a bug that caused the rake trap to deal damage several times to the same entity.

• Fixed Tesla coil electricity particles not displaying in multiplayer games.

• Fixed a minor visual issue with the battery bank in multiplayer games.
