Patch 5 (v1.2.5)
Hi everyone, here's the latest patch! This one has a mix of bug fixes, some changes based on feedback, and some other small improvements.
Improvements / Changes
- World Map: Add Rumors tab which has same info as the Area Map for selected location
- Lengthen day/night cycle and weather patterns to make catching specific fish easier
- Make wind direction slightly more consistent in calm weather
- Wind turbulence now increases in stormy weather
- Target shooting courses have hand-authored wind directions to ensure fair difficulty
- Boats involved in Friendly Rescue encounters can be damaged before the dialog begins, which shortcuts the encounter straight into combat
- Item fishing spots are much less likely to give Ancient Junk that has already been collected
- Perf improvements to vegetation rendering
Bug Fixes
- Moontide Recruitment: Automatically add new Prophecy Bell locations if there aren’t enough remaining to get the required number of bells
- Angler Recruitment: Automatically add new Bibblebait Penguin locations if there aren’t enough remaining to get required number of penguins
- "Buzzing Box" delivery quest: Marley no longer acts as if you still haven’t delivered the package once the quest is complete
- Free Sail mode: Fix mode failing to start if the rowboat had been unlocked
- Free Sail mode: Add description window explaining what the mode is about
- Tekk Clan ships no longer drop non-functional blueprints
- Ensure Eclipse state is properly applied when changing active save
- Boarded boats no longer gain a bit of health when being boarded at very low health
- Localization: Add a few missing translations for some player dialog options late-game
Thanks everyone for continuing to play and give feedback, it's really helpful and encouraging! I'm also working on some larger features which I hope to have out in the coming weeks.
