Desynced News

Last time, we learned how to build a base that functions without buildings, and now it's time to learn how to operate with almost no bots!

And as a bonus, a simple and clear recipe for creating a Police-bot, which will add bright colors to your virtual world!



Author: StS73

Description: A high performance factory complex which moves ingredients and product by full stacks. Supports up to 30 production buildings. Works with both item transporters (late game) or portable transporters (early game). Works with all production components.

Usage:

• Build a central 3x2 building (2M2S)
  
• Install the following inside: Item Transporter (M), Medium Storage (M), Behavior Controller (I)
  
• Surround it with 2x1 buildings (2M) and 2 Storage Blocks (24) as shown in screenshot 1
• In each building, install the component that is necessary for the production of the desired resource. For example, a Fabricator
  
• Reserve slots in the storage of each structure for all necessary input and output resources as shown in screenshot 2, to ensure there is enough space for each ingredient involved in the production.
  
• Disconnect ALL buildings from the logistic network, except for the storage where the final resource (output storage) will be sent
  
• Assign each Fabricator the product it should produce.

  Copy the behavior script into the behavior controller and link the appropriate structures for proper operation as described below:
  
  
• P1 input storage
  
• P2 output storage
  
• P3 your product
  
• All other slots are production buildings. Slots may be left empty.
  

Be aware that you need lots of resources to fill up all the ingredient slots in all your production buildings.

Because you just found the Light Component and someone needs arresting.
Designed for direct link from P1 to the light register. P2 for when you have a Twinbot or multiple lights. P3 is the flashing speed of the lights. (I recommend a value of 2-3 which is approximately 0.4-0.6 seconds)

A heartfelt thank you to our committed community – your input has been invaluable in shaping the updates we're about to share. With your feedback at the forefront, we've refined core elements and incorporated smarter interactions; it's time to delve into the new enhancements and features focused on Exploration. This is the first of several major updates, with the next one coming early next year.

There are now distinct winter and summer seasons in the game. Winter brings snow to the plateau, notably reducing bot movement speed. Additionally, bugs enter hibernation, allowing for easier navigation across the plateau without disturbances.

Summer enhances solar panel efficiency, leading to increased power generation, and is marked by lower water levels. We are looking forward to expanding the seasonal effects in future updates.

*Please note that you need to start a new game for the seasons to work. This means that the seasons won't appear in saves that were created before this update





There are some new explorables you can discover while roaming in the world, and even more will be introduced in future updates.

Giant Silica Tree - destroy it and see what happens!
Locate the AI Base on the map - spend some time observing it, it's fascinating!






Missions are scripted special events you can find on the map, which require you to complete certain steps and get a custom reward. To encounter them during gameplay, explore areas of the map that were previously undiscovered.

*The missions are also available in games created before this update. But they only appear in the previously undiscovered areas of the map.

Help The Broken Explorer, uncover The Abandoned Mining Base, and The Anomaly Base. Follow the clues to reach the finale. If you're having trouble, check out our channel on Discord - we're here to help and provide guidance!



We've added new bots. Engineers are great for resource gathering, while Runners are low-cost and agile, but they don't operate outside the power grid and do not have sockets for item installation.





During your exploration of the map and completion of quests, you will have the opportunity to acquire an AI Behavior Controller.

Using the existing behavior system, it can completely automate certain aspects of the base. This is the first of multiple AI Cores that will be added to game during Early Access, and is the start of a powerful new system for large scale automation.





We have added various flowers and a few other new items to the plateau, each affecting the bots differently. Be careful!

The Power Flowers: They drain your power and also slow down the bugs (more on these later when the alien tree unlocks).



The Phase Flowers: These give a small teleport boost, again related to the alien tech tree.



Bugs now spawn further apart but in clusters, with the chance of a larger hive. It's more like attacking a base than just one-off hives.



There is also the fake "killed bot" on the plateau, which looks like the bugs killed a bot. You get various components if you kill the bugs (which are already quite damaged, so they are relatively easy to defeat).

• Added Drone category to show in registers
  
• Added Carrier factory component
  
• Added Scout radar
  
• Added Advanced Starter Turret
  
• Added Item transporters to beacons
  

• DLSS 3 support has been added, multiplying frame rates for GeForce RTX 40 Series gamers
  
• When ordering a component with the "Request Item" button, it will be automatically equipped, if possible. This helps a lot when requesting items into a few buildings/bots.
  
• “Request Item” now also works if no free slots are available, but free sockets are available for the requested item to be automatically equipped.
  
• Added count_slots and get_max_stack instructions
  
• Added support for texture overriding in visuals
  
• Added Mothership eject

• Added "Update Blueprints" option to update library blueprints
  
• Enable bots to drop items and equipped components at an exact location (move there and drop)
  
• Add 'fx_digital_in' place effect to player dropped items
  

P.S. Wait for 30 seconds on the Main Menu Screen, then press the 'Reset Simulation' button for a surprise!

• Human recipes in Re-Simulator now require unlocking Artificial Human Core
  
• Slowly damage entities in the Blight without Blight Shield
  
• Increased chance of some explorable rewards
  
• Added more Re-Simulator hints
  

• Add translations to Czech, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese (Traditional)
