Cryo-Chamber Beta
[p]Now that there are 14 officer classes but only room for 6 at a time, I'm finally experimenting with a long-time player request: a place to "drop off" your officers so you can hire someone with a certain set of skills...[/p][p][/p]
The Cryo-Chamber!
[p]For now, it will have no cost. In the future there will be quests to obtain it and freeze/thaw costs in essences every time you use it (ice to freeze and heat to thaw).[/p][p]If you want to play around with the cryo-chamber, make sure you have the latest version (2.0.13e) and enter the code "Cryo-Chamber". It unlocks on a per-run basis. Remember: it's free right now for testing but that won't last forever.[/p][p]You can still only hire one of the new "alien division" officers at a time. You can't cheat with the cryo-chamber. Death or dismissal are your only chances to get another.[/p][p][/p]Fixes
- [p]I fixed a serious bug that made the final monk quest un-complete-able![/p]
- [p]I fixed a bug where the uniform achievements were only triggering in permadeath. That was not intended![/p]
- [p]I've set the Nanopocalypse achievement to trigger if you beat it in any way, not just through the quest line.[/p]
- [p]I fixed a bug where you couldn't use gel from the inventory screen.[/p]
Changes
- [p]During new game ship selection, if a race's special officer is unlocked, their portrait will show up when you choose their ship. If you start with that ship, they will offer to join you right before your game begins.[/p]
- [p]Officers for hire now start with significantly more XP, to make it easier to replace any losses.[/p]
- [p]You can now intentionally burn commodities in the reactor, from the inventory screen.[/p]
- [p]You can now sell alien art in station pawn shops. Bankers always pay less for art, and each art piece is valued higher by 1 faction, which is displayed in the inventory.[/p]
- [p]I added 6 new possible powers to legendary weapons.[/p]
- [p]Syndicate ships will now have a chance to create racial shipwrecks when destroyed![/p]
- [p]You can now spend data in the bestiary to learn resistances/weaknesses of individual creatures, in an attempt to grok them.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Overwhelmingly Positive
[p]Thanks again for everyone who left a positive review, it's now up to 96% positive out of all time! I love making this universe and I'm glad you're having fun in it![/p][p][/p]
