Zompiercer News

Hey guys! I finally finished and posted the update test. The update may contain many bugs, including critical ones, so play at your own risk and make a backup of your last save. At the moment, the construction system is not fully completed. While it is impossible to improve the elements of the interior of the walls, as well as to improve the outer part of the walls to metal. The electrification system operates in a primitive mode, and a switch in a carriage will turn on and off all light sources in that carriage. This is a temporary solution, and in the future it will be possible to tie it to the switches individually, creating separate groups of luminaires. Also, while the attenuation system for the sound of nature does not work when all walls and ceilings are erected, this will be implemented in the next updates. I managed to save the work of the save files, but partially, if your save gives an error, unfortunately you will have to start the game from the beginning, I apologize.

Hey guys! This update is taking a long time, so I decided to release a small video demonstrating the innovations in the upcoming update. I hope you enjoy the work done. I will also be glad to hear your suggestions at this stage. Perhaps I missed something and can be corrected at this stage.

The main theme of this update was global game optimization. All the knowledge and experience that I have at the moment was applied, but unfortunately the results were not revolutionary. Tests on various configurations show performance improvement from + 20% to + 100%. I am not happy with these results, as I expected the best result, but I gained a lot of experience and know in which direction to work further. In addition to optimization, I was not satisfied with the look of nature and especially water, a lot of work was also done in this direction.
