Astro Colony News

Hey Colonizers!

Day 6 summary is here, I did great improvements both in Single and Multiplayer I would love to share, but before important announcement:

Due to negative reviews for experimental 3 and more players mode, I decided to close option until all problems are resolved. It will take some days, but as soon as is open again I will let you all know!

Your multiplayer feedback is very valuable, thank you!
I ask for your patience and comprehension.

• Cables, pipes improvement to not accidentally build them on another station
  
• Lowering Main Menu graphic requirements based on community feedback
  
• Reduced visible dust effect on planets
  

[h2]MULTIPLAYER BUGFIXES[/h2]

• Multiplayer 3 and more players mode temporarily closed
  
• Fixed an option to upgrade devices for Clients
  
• Fixed an issue with pickaxe grid not displayed for the client
  
• Fixed an issue where Colony Origin is not visible for client when constructed
  
• Fixed an issue where docking station is not docked on the client and having no conveyor belts

Hey Colonizers!

Day 4 summary is here, multiplayer works continues and makes it more stable.

[h2]SINGLE PLAYER QOL[/h2]

• Conveyor Belts allowing to place logic blocks directly on them
  
• Oxygen generator having mechanic to swap input/output
  

[h2]MULTIPLAYER BUGFIXES[/h2]

• Sevagame recovery system - teleporting players closer to the host when data is missing
  
• Savegame showing number of players saved - missing player data detected
  
• Crash fixed related to client early grid initialization
  
• Crash fixed related to client drill recovery

There are known multiplayer issues related to endless exploration and world origin changes:
- when loading a savegame client may have "moved" generated planets on the map
- client may experience "jump" of generated planets when host is moving
- client may have incorrect generation of planets

I will let you know when next fixes are here, during the day!

Wish me good luck ;)
