The Last Plague: Blight News

[p]Further fixes and improvements in this update! Things are starting to look a lot more solid. I've noticed some great feedback around hunting/combat being a bit lackluster and will continue to tackle addressing that over the next few updates. Appreciate your patience![/p][p][/p][p]Fixes[/p]

• [p]Fixed triangular walls not being able to connect with the bottom point of inner corner lumber rafters[/p]

• [p]Fixed covered clay jar contents getting wet when held or dropped on the ground (not placed)[/p]
• [p]Fixed "add materials" button for building upgrades (ex. raft -> raft with storage) not doing anything due to a wrong calculation of current materials on the building[/p]

[p]Hey everyone, back with another update with a bunch more fixes and enhancements. Thanks again for all the great bug reports and feedback! Hope you're enjoying all the new stuff![/p][p][/p][p]Fixes[/p]

• [p]Fixed bad collision check for triangular wall that was preventing it from being placed in valid spots[/p]
• [p]Fixed plant rope having a condition that is normally never observed but would be set to a low value when recovering certain medical items. This would result in further crafted items like clothing having equally low condition[/p]
• [p]Fixed inventory controls hint popup being stuck on screen if you have the inventory open when dying[/p]
• [p]Fixed the medium-tier disinfectant's name so it's distinguishable from the strongest disinfectant[/p]

• [p]Fixed lumber stockpile not stacking properly when there are enough lumber in the stockpile[/p]
• [p]Fixed stockpile layout of large stones and sticks to prevent floating[/p]
• [p]Fixed buildings like chests placed on multi-level floors not properly connecting to the floor. Now these buildings will properly hide when selecting a lower floor to show, and will be destroyed when the floor is destroyed rather than remaining floating in the air[/p]
• [p]Fixed instances of "floating" grass appearing the world when moving around the world quickly and/or with a slower computer that takes longer to generate all the grasses properly[/p]
• [p]Fixed certain building pieces like posts disappearing when built (but still interactable) in locations with very steep terrain (they were being tagged as being in the cave level in these cases so they would never be seen aboveground)[/p]

[p]Additions[/p]

• [p]Added new injury type: lacerations. They are a more serious bleeding injury that require more urgent care[/p]
• [p]Added new injury type: concussions. These are applied after taking heavy damage and affect your energy, potentially causing a loss of consciousness [/p]

[p]Balance[/p]

• [p]Greatly reduced garlic bulb/clove decay rate[/p]
• [p]Greatly increased durability of shovels and iron-tipped shovels. Existing shovels will be updated if they are close to 100% condition[/p]

[p]Other changes[/p]

• [p]Increased visibility of selected/hovered dropdown list items[/p]
• [p]Added a warning when moving a lit torch to a slot that would extinguish it[/p]

[p]Bringing some more bug fixes and requested content in this update today. Improved roof building processes, and doors are finally here along with a nicer way to close doors/gates.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Fixes:[/p]

• [p]Fixed roof pieces like rafters and clay tiles colliding with other nearby roof pieces, preventing placement[/p]
• [p]Fixed item and building placement not taking the current visible floor into account, making the green placement outline snap to a higher floor than you were on[/p]
• [p]Fixed raft collision calculation so that climbing on top of the raft out of the water is now possible in more cases[/p]
• [p]Fixed cases where some planted mushrooms would decay and disappear due to entering a new growth stage that places them slightly out of the trigger range of the roof above[/p]
• [p]Fixed bad calculation for the player character's active floor that would cause the 1st floor to be triggered when standing on the 2nd floor[/p]
• [p]Fixed bad distance calculation that would prevent stick rafters from being placed between very far apart (but still valid) stick posts[/p]

• [p]Fixed leaves not disappearing for co-op joining players when trees are felled[/p]
• [p]Dragging to medical items with controller no longer breaks health menu state[/p]
• [p]Clove poultice no longer infinitely duplicates itself when used[/p]
• [p]Knives no longer give a strange failure message when attempting to treat leeches through the item context menu[/p]
• [p]Fixed "press key for attack mode" setting not preventing attacks when clicking on terrain[/p]

• [p]Added "inner corner lumber rafters" that can connect 3 higher points with one lower point to make a corner roof piece[/p]
• [p]Added stockpile support for lumber[/p]
• [p]Injury UI now shows progress bar based on medical action progress[/p]
• [p]Health information that was only viewable through tooltips is now viewable on controller[/p]

[p]Balance[/p]

• [p]Reworked hostile creature spawning to have a shorter default delay (5 minutes -> 2 minutes), and extra logic to prioritize spawning hostile creatures if all have despawned due to the player walking around the world quickly[/p]
• [p]Increased injury treatment rate and medical item effectiveness during sleep[/p]
• [p]Decreased injury dirtiness accumulation during sleep[/p]

[p]Other changes[/p]

• [p]Changed clay bowl making task so it can be skipped[/p]

• [p]Added ability to burn spent pine leaf bandages[/p]
• [p]Added a change to the current shown floor when placing a roof above the floor you are on so that the new roof will immediately be interactable[/p]
