Improvements + Linux Dedicated Server + Developer stream #2
Hey Astro Colonists!
It was a busy few days focusing mainly on fixing reported bugs.
Firstly, I would love to thank everyone who contributed in improving Astro Colony. Without your bug reports and feedback it wouldn't be possible!
[h2]LINUX DEDICATED SERVER IS NOW ON STEAM[/h2]
I promised to add Linux Dedicated Server to Steam directly, so there is no need of getting files from google drive anymore. The day has come! You can grab Linux Dedicated Server from Steam already.
Below I share with you some of the changes which makes the game way more stable.
Blueprint Designer for multiplayer is now reliable and should not cause crashes when using it.
Exploring other dimensions are now possible in multiplayer, where other players should also get technology tree expanded.
[h2]IMPROVEMENTS[/h2]
[h2]FIXES[/h2]
[h2]Stream starts today (Sunday) at 20CET (8PM)[/h2]
Last but not least, I decided to stream the game for you guys, showing new game and progressing enough to reach at least the next dimension! I will try to be better prepared with some blueprints, so my setup will be easier to digest ;)
For people who have Steam broadcasting issues, it's also on Twitch:
