Update 0.8.2 - Anglerfish & Mahi mahi

Patch notes
Gameplay

  • Two new species are now playable in survival mode, Anglerfish and Mahi mahi.
    Both have custom babies models, textures and animations.
    - Especially baby mahi looks like a Milhouse for some reason.
  • Sea turtles and their babies have been added into Great map, currently they spawn in water on the beach - this will be fixed soon.
  • Jellyfish now deal damage on touch to anything that is not armored.
    ( for example crabs, turtles or browurags won't get sting )
  • Added an indicator of how many babies you have left with new ability(Q) to tell your own babies "Stay here" or "Follow me".
  • Amount of max eggs now depends on fish base size - smaller species have more eggs than big ones. ( It's just a temporary solution for now )
  • Hunger has been slowed down, and for very large fish even more.
  • In Survival mode, AI adult fish have chance to spawn with level range of (1-15) instead of a constant (7).
  • Ichtyosaurus now prefers to hunt near water level.
  • Increased jellyfish amount.
  • Increased overall fish amount in great map to 130% from 100%.
  • Increased overall food amount in great map to 750x from 500x.
  • Adjusted appetite for small fish to eat more. Also a proffered food has been set: coral babies prefer plancton, anglerfish babies spores and Mahi mahi babies prefer meat.


Graphics & Optimization

  • Optimized and improved terrain rendering in both far and near distance.
  • Optimized grass and sea weed rendering.
  • Added new tiny shells as terrain details in Great map.
  • Adjusted bloom sampling distance so no flickering happens around Anglerfish bait.


Others

  • Fixed a bug that gave an ability to mate while already being pregnant.
  • Reduced amount of hearths that go off while mating.
  • (Hot-bugfix Aug 8, 2017) - fixed disabled growing in Deathmatch mode.


To do list:

  • Anglerfish should be able to see way better in depth and get overwhelmed by sun near water surface.
  • Ichtyosaurus, Sea turtles and Mosasaurus should be able to walk on land to lay eggs.
  • Mushrooms should light without using Global Illumination.
  • More diverse food chain in deeper waters.


Known bugs:

  • Anglerfish sometimes take on cannibalism when too hungry and devour their own kind, we might keep this if it won't be too much game breaking.
  • Small predators, like Bibos, that can't swallow jellyfish whole bite them and end up dying.
  • Weird bug - sometimes adult fish join you, like if they were your babies refusing to go on


Thank you for your patience.
Stay tuned.
