Version 1.2.1 Is Coming Soon

1.2.1 Will obselete old saves. If you have outstanding saves be aware that they may not work after 8:00 PM 01/10/2020 CST.



Summary:
1.2.1 includes a variety of fixes which are the result of a recent uptick in feedback by players.


Some News:
Above Earth development continues. The priority now is something called the "Schematics Menu" which will provide a birds-eye view of the space station and hopefully will make a variety of information in the game much more intuitive. It is not included in this update as it is still a work in progress. It will be coming in a future update.

In the future the number of save-breaking updates should be more infrequent. There is an experimental build of the game that you can opt into through Steam that will more regularly receive save-breaking updates.


Changelist:
  • -BUG FIX: Inventory icons were not showing up correctly in some menus.
  • -BUG FIX: Parts of the Starship could potentially load out of wack on some players' systems.
  • -BUG FIX: Door sound effects were being played by a ladder which you would not expect coming from a ladder.
  • -BUG FIX: A Glow pod could flash on for a frame even if it was out of power.
  • -BUG FIX: Inventory sorting was not updating correctly on some menus.
  • -BUG FIX: Removed an unnecessary warning message when interacting with EVA ports during EVA.

  • -CHANGE: The EVA suit head light will now default to being off when initiating an EVA.
  • -CHANGE: Inventory menus now include a "No Sort" button option that will disable sorting on that menu.
  • -CHANGE: Exterior EVA containers now have a special symbol on the HUD to emphasize their priority.
  • -CHANGE: Exterior EVA items will have a minimized description on the HUD if they are empty/exhausted.
  • -CHANGE: The HUD cursor now includes a black outline so it will be more easily visible in more situations.
  • -CHANGE: Low condition screen blurring will now only start to occur when reaching 70% condition.
