Frozen Worlds and the Rise of the Machines
[h3]This Main Branch built from the past five Experimental builds adds a never-before-scene-surprise...the Security Unit![/h3]
This is a very significant update for Osiris: New Dawn as it graduates the new Cloud Data System, Seamless Space Travel, the new moon of Lutari, the new creature Moon Mantis, restored and improved moon of Aziel, Herd Behaviors, improved Droid AI and Pathfiinding, while adding hundreds of improvements, fixes, and polish.
[h2]Rise of the Machines[/h2]
This is the first version of the new Droid AI systems, and although they're a little rough around the edges we decided to share them with you now.
[h2]Security Unit[/h2]
These armored bots will follow you into any combat scenario. Sentry Units feature a highly powerful blaster and can travel in squads.
[h2]Mining Assistant[/h2]
Why mine when a Mining Assistant can do the dirty work for you? These handy bots will seek out minerals and continually mine. Simply access each one to grab what they have harvested.
The O.M.P.A. has also been upgraded with the latest AI system, putting it's specialty into repairing and base maintenance. If you have a large base, you'll want to have a few OMPAs around to keep everything in tip top condition.

In case you missed last week's Experimental Build, we added:
[h2]Lutari[/h2]
The second moon of Theseus Prime is Lutari. Lutari is positioned very close to the Theseus Prime ring system, giving a beautiful look at the “hot Jupiter’s” rings. Similar in appearance to our own moon, this world features reduced gravity, strange “Moonshrooms” and is rich in rare minerals.

[h2]Moon Mantis[/h2]
The first discovered Lutarian is the Moon Mantis, which appears to be some sort of predator that roams the surface.
The Moon Mantis takes advantage of our new IK Creature Animation system which allows math driven IK for traversal and feet planting while using expressive key framed animations in the attack sequences. We’ve had a lot of players ask for this, which has also been on our roadmap, and now it’s here. Other creatures will be receiving this animation treatment as we go.
[h2]Moonshroom[/h2]
Not completely desolate, there seems to be a strange iridescent shrub called a Moonshroom on the moon’s surface.
[h2]Lots of fixes and improvements[/h2]
In addition to graduating everything from the past 5 weeks into this update, we managed to knock out lots of fixes and polish from issues found by the community and our testers.
As always, be sure to check out our official Roadmap: Osiris: New Dawn - Roadmap
Whew! We're super proud of this Main Branch build! With this build we will be updating the Roadmap as we move closer to and closer to full release.
Over and out,
Brian
