Beta client #14 is now available for download.
First up, Twitter updates with my comments in curly brackets:
- You can now place tokens even if you have an edit tool selected
- If a player settlement is destroyed, players get blaster and smooth edit tools. {IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME}
- Fixed cave floor vertex selection graphics
- Players no longer pick up power ups they cant carry {I can't wait for this to be implemented. With this, players will only be able to pick up 4 pods at any one time, allowing us to change our manufacturing. Link below :) }
- Players are now always being spawned at a checkpoint if no settlement exists (you always have a checkpoint to respawn to if you get trapped)
- AI can no longer accidentally destroy things by building bridges over them.
- Found and fixed a reason for the AI to build unnecessary bridges.
- Fixed bug in the logic and pacing of the AIs destruction of Player Settlements .
- Found bug that prevented Occupations
- AI no longer places the Occupation in stupid places. {funny.}
- Added rocket pits {check them out at Rocket Pit}
- Cleared UK servers
New Blog Post
Eskil's new blog post is up and explains some of what he always tells us on teamspeak. It almost sounds like a cry for people to stop bothering him about adding Monitor Lizards. Read it, enjoy it, comment. But it's all true. The noobies who complain about one hole in the world should ease off the jets. When we were kids we ran to mommy whenever a sibling touched us. Now, we run to Eskil whenever we find a 1-tile hole?
New Guide(s)
Over the course of Love so far(from the first week of alpha through private and public beta) we've had numerous issues cause miss-communications and rage resulting in quite a non-wholesome, un-loving experience. I have found a solution to the graphics card issues which caused a "smoo" incident that also impacts base layout and power issues. Here is a brand new Manufacturing and Containment Guide to solve a few of these problems. Also, the Token Placement Guide has recieved a major update. Do enjoy.
