Patch Alpha 12.7 Updates Old Magnetic Field Generators

Hello everyone!

A couple players still complained about their magnetic field generators turning into the adamantine drill. With this small update we change the save game loading so that old, broken magnetic field generators from the time before our terraforming update hotfix are get fixed as well.

If anyone still has issues with these, let us know.

Happ playing!

Friday Dev News #115 - Big Ferris Wheel

Hello everyone!

our studio has a lot to do right now with a mix of refactoring, polishing, adding some new buildings, and a visit to the Game Developers Conference.

This week, I'll show you some of the new decorative buildings thanks to Lasse, while the rest of the team are working on improvements on things in the background.

Big Ferris Wheel


This Ferris Wheel let's your citizens see the plant from a whole new perspective! For now this is just a decorative building, but we might make it an alternative to the stadium for people to get entertainment. What do you think?



Crashed UFO


Where could this have come from? Seems like it's been here for a long time.






Building Variations


InfraSpace's industrial districts frequently look a little bland cause many players group buildings of the same product together in large areas. To improve the look of these zones, we're adding some variations to many often-used factories:









That's it for this week's updates. Let us know what you think and happy playing!

Friday Dev News #114 - Bugfix Update

Hello everyone,

one week has passed since the Terraforming Update and we've been busy with bugfixes for you.

A big reason for some of the new bugs was a multithreading issue that happened because we cleaned up a huge chunk of our codebase, about 40%. This should make future dev easier, but during that cleanup, we also made a last minute performance improvement. It worked, but sometimes led to issues with other threads, breaking a bunch of things.

That threading issue was fixed with the Monday update and that's where most reported bugs have been eliminated. Some were still left, so today you're getting another update:

  • fixed keybindings that were not working
  • fixed animations not playing properly if they were not using VAT (immigration spaceship). Some players thought this meant immigration was broken
  • fixed animations and particles out of sync when placing roads next to building
  • fixed red dots not disappearing when placing first couple of buildings


On Monday we fixed the bug where the Magnetic Field Generator turned into the adamantine drill. However, you need to place a NEW generator, because old generators still have the wrong values inside of them. If you are sure you have placed a new generator and you still see it turning into the adamantine mine, send us the save.

That's it for this week. You're going to hear more about our plans for the next update next week.

Best,
Daniel

Big Patch Alpha 12.5.257!

Hello everyone!

In the comments I promised a big bugfixing session on Monday and with this update we're delivering the results:

  • fixed a multithreading issue that caused a number of bugs like power and consumption flickering
  • fixed error icons not showing up
  • fixed issue where you couldn't place/move buildings and roads
  • fixed issues where you couldn't select buildings and rocks
  • fixed an issue where road pathfinding was not set up properly after save loading
  • probably fixed mass upgrade/downgrade messages after returning from space scene


There are still a couple of fixes left for another bugfix patch, but this should already improve stability a lot!

Let us know how it's going and thanks for the reports so far.

Happy playing!
