No Time News

[h2]Hello fellow players!
[/h2]

[h3]It's been a while, I am back from my little hiatus which was back at the real world Fort Dun counterpart![/h3]



[h3]This time catching fish at the inner moat was in order, repopulating some of the outer moats around the fort with carp!
So with that experience in mind I thought it was time to finally make the fishing rod a real object.[/h3]

[h2]The Fishing Rod[/h2]


[h3]Fishing rods work now![/h3]


[h3]There are several types of fish now for salt and fresh water alike in different sizes![/h3]
[h3]They can be sold for a specific prizes based on fish type and size![/h3]


[h3]You can see fish above water based on the ripples they produce, but don't come in running or get to close or they will swim away![/h3]


[h3]A bit of patience, and voilà![/h3]


[h3]Patience is key! Sometimes all you get is an old branch or empty 2Can Soda![/h3]

[h2]Exo Suit and Leviboard Extensions
[/h2]


[h3]You can now customize your Exo Suit and Leviboard to your liking including custom coloring![/h3]


[h3]You can add the jet extension to both items! (This removes the jetboard effectively as a craftible item)[/h3]


[h3]You can pack on some heavy armor plating onto your Exo Suit for extra Beefiness/ Strength during melee combat![/h3]


[h3]Want to be a personal Shield Generator, pretty easy![/h3]

[h3]
With those new features comes also energy consumption. The previously introduced capacitors will control how far you can fly or how strong your shield will be! Top tier capacitors like those from mim will allow you to fly around in your jet pack indefinitely[/h3]


[h3]If your power is null, your suit will become sluggish and you won't be able to move at full speed![/h3]


[h3]You can toggle your hat/ helmet for every costume by pressing 'O'[/h3]


[h3]You can toggle the exo suit lights by pressing 'L'[/h3]

[h2]ACT 4 News[/h2]

[h3]Before my hiatus I have reached MÎM's base Du Utu, with a first confrontation of the evil doer.[/h3]
(Hover over black spoiler for image)



[h3]There is still much to do, given that I want it to be a proper ending with epilogue where all kinds of stories get resolved, if I were to work every day straight without pause it would take me about a month.[/h3]

[h3]Not counting the load of testing and potential voice work for new Narrator lines.[/h3]

[h3]I thank you for your support over this crucial time, it keeps me going as I see that you eagerly await this new and final entry to the main story line.[/h3]

[h3]Enjoy the update![/h3]
[h3]
God bless

[h2]Hello fellow players.
[/h2]
[h3]I had players reporting an increase in performance drop for some over time as they played on one save file, which turned out to be due to redundant copies of items caused by your past self taking an item back to its inventory.[/h3]

[h3]It should be fixed now and the redundant items will be removed out of your save file.
If you encountered this issue, save and load your save a couple times so it can cycle through your inventory and remove the fake copies.

This will work by the game checking if the item is in its box position, and later checking if it is not attached to any box in game.[/h3]

[h3]Below are more patches that were made throughout the weeks after the update.[/h3]

Have fun in No Time and God bless![/h3]

[h2]Hello fellow players!

I've been spending the past month working on ACT 4 whilst doing some content on the side!
[h3]
Gamepad Support for XBOX One & 360[/h3]

No Time finally has some working game pad support, albeit only for xbox one / 360 for now!



Just plug in your x box controller and map it to your liking as well! I have labeled the game as partial support for now as sandbox and the mod menu are not supported.



[h3]The Cinema[/h3]
There are two cinemas now on Pine Island!



One is next to the book store in Pine Lake, the other is a drive in open air cinema next to the meadery in Fisher Bay! This one is only active during night time but is free of charge!



Currently the cinema has two public domain short films. If you have suggestions for more films that I can add, comment them below! :)

If you only hear music playing, wait a while the movie will start shortly as the movies are being played on a 2 hour basis with fill ins in between.


[h3]Explosive Barrels[/h3]
I've scattered these explosive barrels all over No Time!
They do damage if shot at to nearby enemies, or even yourself!



[h3]
Procedural Space Baces & ACT4[/h3]


Space has new places to explore! A new base generation system has been created in preparation for ACT 4!



[h3]New Robots[/h3]



You will find new robots scattered across the future of Pine Island and even Mîm's bases in space.
They fulfill several duties. Some are for protection, others simply for cleaning floors and eating up trash items!

Some of these new bases will contain interesting secrets and new weapon upgrades!

[h3]
Currently I am in the stage of setting up the raid on DU UTU itself, having prepared the leading up quest to it (including the procedural mim bases, which will also be used for ACT 4). Development may still take some time, as anything that takes great care. But the completion of it is in sight!

Enjoy the Update, God bless![/h3]

Hello fellow players

There has been a bug in the Thunderous Matters quest which would prevent players from continuing the quest after the machine exploded.

I have switched No Time from Unity 5.35 to 5.6 last week. It is not as big a change as it is really just a patched Engine version so it required little testing to figure out if all was working.
(Thanks to Davesoft for the helping hand during the tests)

Here are the notes for the past patches.
God bless and enjoy the game
