Patch Notes

The following is a list of changes pushed to the experimental branch. While changes are usually tested beforehand, please note that some may require further testing to validate.

QUALITY OF LIFE:

• Added a range display to the Status Chamber to help visualize the enemy spawn range

• Updated the "Close" button on the Discovered pop-up to always show immediately

• Skipping the tutorial now unlocks all discoveries, and no longer plays them

BALANCE CHANGES:

• Increased the number of hives in the starting area of the Abyss from 1 to 3

• Increased spawn chance on Status Chambers from 10% to 20%

• Changed Marksman cost from 10 Stabilized Flux to 10 Stabilized Hex

BUG FIXES:

• Fixed resource painter tool from showing up in the palette designer

• Fixed filter bug caused by legacy unlock conditions, making it impossible to take certain resources out of the hub or pickup certain resources from shared containers

• Fixed the Hex Spawn recipe from outputting Stabilized Nitrium

• Fixed heat level UI from collapsing on itself, making it unreadable

• Fixed delayed entity destruction on outposts; destroying the core is now instant

KNOWN ISSUES:

• Bullets sometimes enter a state of limbo when hitting a hive; I may have fixed this by adding a secondary guard to the collision state, but it is unconfirmed as I have been unable to produce this bug in the editor.

• Faction switching is enabled, will be disabled in the next build.
