Lights & Clothing - Survive in Style!

The new Lights & Clothing update, complete with new tech and feature updates, is now on the public test branch for you to try right now. It will spend a short time there so we can gather your feedback and watch out for any significant bugs to squash.

As with any new version, we always recommend making a new save of your currently colony.

We will post the full patch notes and details when this is pushed to the live release, here's a summary:

  • Fahrenheit: You asked. We delivered.

  • Lighting UpdateOverhaul of the lighting mechanic, plus a new type of light (that doesn't need fuel), a new [top secret] Float-Tech blueprint, and accessibility setting for darkness.
  • BackpacksBackpacks are now available. 7 backpacks can be crafted at the Tailor Station.
  • Clothing8 new clothing uniforms can now be found, search those lockers inside bunkers or find your friendly clothing trader. Yes Chef!
  • Lining ItemsNew item slots for lining your clothes to improve cold resistance, heat resistance, and take advantage of the new armor stat which reduces combat damage.
  • New Tech5 new tech buildings are now available and 2 upgrades. From jellyfish farming to a late game conduit mill, you'll be able to setup production for new and existing resources.

  • New Resources: Sunstone Powder (Pulping Station), Bioglow Compound (Fermentation Tank), Polyweave Mesh (Fabricator), Copper Wire (Conduit Mill)

  • Plus a range of Automation Improvements, QoL and bug fixes.

Some important things to note:

  • Light now effects work speed. Characters in an area that is too dark will get a work speed penalty, check the character sheet for how much light they have.

  • Light now effects beds (instead of day/night), sleep faster in the dark.

  • Hide & Leather items have been moved to the new Drying Rack. You'll need to research and build it. Existing items you had queued/processing in the Jerky Rack should still be there.

  • Rafts will now attempt to automatically disembark to the nearest island when they return from expeditions.

Looking forward to your feedback :)
