Update 01.145 - Bug Fixes and Improvements

Nice!

 

Coool.

 

Ok, so you guys are shooting yourselves in the foot again.
Working on fixing the O2 system...Great...Then turning it off by default..Why?
This is dev branch. We have to opt into it. We're here to test. If you're actually working on fixing it, then we should actively be working on testing it.
It's enough pandering to the people who don't want to actually be testers with a stable branch.

Good on the other fixes.

 

Yay! Fixes!

Edit: Yay! Teaser! (Didnt get it though)

 

WHERE'S THE DUSAN DANCE ANIMATION!!!!

 

Nice fixes... but I am sure some rants are coming.

 

Return Station Voxel Support World Option.
Fix the new Block Placing System.
Fix the G-Menu.
De-scratch Glass.

Unoffensive patch otherwise, bugfixes are always welcome. Better luck next week?

Edit: Teaser confirmed to be Light Armor and Heavy Armor - Camo Pattern will be GONE.

 

Keep it up!

 

I say fix oxygen, but that's just me.

 

More options are always nice, but what happens to world's that already exist? Will it be set to default or on for these world's (assuming oxygen is enabled)?

 

Love it

 

@joemorin73 here ya go:

 

Because they've got a metric buckton of data on that problem as it has been a problem for months. This one's really not a matter of lacking testing but of (probably) time and priorities. At least you CAN turn it off.

 

awesome.

 

Apparently scratching glass wasn't enough, so now they're scratching armor textures too.

This may be good for long-term gaming, but having you brand-new ship already scratched is a bit frustrating, though.

 

It reminds me a lot of the really old textures. Personally i don't mind scratches on the paint that much, they seem relatively minor from afar. Plus, y'know, you don't need to SEE through an Armor Block...

 

@russo_bolado actually we had scratched armor textures in the beginning. The devs cleaned it up for us.

 

Until there's actually some gameplay reason for being in an oxygen environment (like growing potatoes), then makes sense I guess.

 

Interesting update, keep up the good work!
about that teaser... what is it ? a new texture for HEAVY armor blocks ? i would love to heavy armor blocks dont have that CAMO and have a more cool texture

 

does this mean my missile racks won't detach when firing missiles when rotors are locked now? :>

 

Well it sends a very mixed message.
So my takeaway is "we fixed a couple outstanding bugs with O2 but we're not gonna do anything else about it, so we went ahead and turned it off, if you want to turn it on feel free"
Which I guess is fine, since there's more important things to fix...like rotors and pistons.

Build system was 2 patches ago, you're just being silly expecting them to fix anything else with it...it'll be months at least...especially when only a handful of us give any feedback on it.

 

The new armor block textures are looking amazing! Very nice mapping. Keep up the good work Keen!

 

Ok just read I23I7 message, so did the fix for pirates get put in today's update, or will it be hot fixed tomorrow?

 

Physically-based rendering and bumpmapping for armor blocks.

 

The list doesn't mention the piston head/wheel fix the vid does, even tho that's the best fix today
Teaser looks nice, finally armor will look like metal...

 

Doesn't really matter tbh, as long as they're keeping it optional. Seems more people than i thought simply turn it off now anyways; if anything this was done to prevent newbies from having a (justifyingly) bad first experience with the oxygen system. It's not like playing with those microstutters is fun, but at least it's THERE if you want it. It all boils down to keeping the option open. @Xocliw Options, options, options, options. It's that simple, Keen.

They've been given detailed feedback and suggestions. Not having it fixed already is... unfortunate and i don't really buy that it wouldn't have been possible to at least fix the resetting block ghost distance in this amount of time, if only because the old code has to lay around somewhere at the office.

 

STILL getting ejected from cockpits in 3rd person after being in 1st person. This was broken in the last update. So yet another week of hitting F then V every...single...time...

 

Needs a helmet.

 

My mind is blown.
You don't fix or optimize it, but just turn it off.
This keeps getting worse.
