☵ Hiraeth update 0.9.8.42 – Airlock Fixes, Door Safety, and WIP Athens Base

Hello post-holiday survivors!

[p]A small but important update addressing missing airlocks, plus a few new additions.[/p][h2]Airlocks[/h2]

[p]Restored several airlocks that were invisible in version 0.9.8.42.[/p]
[p]Thank you for the reports on the Steam forum — I’m not able to test absolutely everything myself. I always verify newly added or modified features, but these particular airlocks had been working correctly for a long time, so I didn’t re-check them.[/p]
[p]It turns out that during compilation the engine can incorrectly restore mobility component changes, which may result in objects being removed or moved to inaccessible locations.[/p]
[p]This issue has now been fixed in Hydron Bases, Comm Center, and the Underground areas.[/p]

[h2]Door Safety[/h2]

[p]In rare cases, a survivor could get stuck while doors were closing.[/p]
[p]I’ve added a safety mechanism: doors now automatically retract if the player is in their movement path.[/p]

[h2]Athens Base – Very Early WIP, but Now Accessible[/h2]

[p]Added access to the base at the top of Athens.[/p]
[p]Both the base interior and the surrounding area are in a very early stage of development.[/p]
[p]Performance in this location is currently not great — it will improve significantly once the work is complete.[/p]
[p]This area will become an important gameplay location for the upcoming main quest: leaving Nesoi Island.[/p]

[p]I planned to release a version with a more refined Athens location, but the lack of airlocks required an immediate patch, and Athens as it is - I can't quickly remove it.[/p][p]
Warm regards,[/p][p]the developer[/p]
