Changes:
- Delayed pump and red-splitter item as requirement appearance for quest structures (now they shouldn't appear on 2nd or 3rd islands).
- Increased amount of fish caught by all fishing classes.
- Made disband crew button disabled by default
- Disabled instant concrete research and enabled crafting of it (this means nuclear buildings are now craftable and obtainable).
- Blue belts in mazes (and other minor structures) now can be rotated.
- Removed discord message "Difficulty changed to ...".
- Added explanatory text that deckhand and boatswain classes don't generate ore while at sea.
- Increased respawn speed boost duration from 17.5 -> 20 secs (This change mainly targets cave island, but a welcome change to other islands too).
- Fixed rocks giving far more ore than intended in cave island.
- Fixed cave island always having the same layout.
NOTE: Some changes mentioned here are from "test_commit"
Changes:
- Reduced worm and spawner density in Poisonous Fens island by 33%. Reasoning: since this island is very big, there are naturally more biters there and it's a bit too dense with bigger crews.
- Reduced spawner density in Walkways island by 25%. Reasoning: in late game these islands become too hard, so this should help a bit.
- Reduced spawner density in Radioactive island by 20%. Reasoning: defending multiple structures can be difficult.
- Increased coal amounts in Frozen pools by 2x. Also amount now also scales with leagues.
- Added construction bots to findable roboport structure. Also robot amount scales with leagues and is slightly randomised.
- Sulfuric acid amount in Poisonous Fens now scales with leagues.
- Added loot to ship wrecks in Sandworm Caldera.
- Increased ore amount in Sandworm Caldera by 3x. Also amount now also scales with leagues.
Changes:
- Chests with cliff-explosives in holds now explode after 5 second delay.
- Changed the price of cliff explosives to cost 1000 coins for 5 (4x cheaper than before). Reasoning: This is an experiment to shift the coin spending meta.
- Players now can find explosives and cliff-explosives in chests in the wild.
Changes:
- Added damage reduction to Roc Eater that forgot to add before
- Fixed an issue where "placeability_function_optional" in "try_place" could be nil (it was causing crash in debug mode)
- Fixed an issue where arrival timer would continue ticking during kraken encounter past 20 seconds (this should result in kraken encounter not being unintentionally skippable anymore when arrival timer ends)
- Fixed an issue where kraken spit sometimes would cause a crash in debug mode
- Added 4 new dev related commands
- Significantly buffed Dredger class loot
- Buffed Master Angler class
- Changed tick tack trap to troll emoji when nothing happens
Changes:
- Changed requirements for placing structures on islands: instead of trying to squeeze in-between trees, now it needs a single corner to be on land (it still can't spawn in ocean). In result, islands with more dense forests should see special structures more often and more scattered around the island, rather than them spawning mostly on beaches (because they had no trees)
- When area in which structure is going to be placed contains water, it's replaced with landfill
- New structure: friendly small-cliff-base with cliffs, gun turrets and car
- Captain's cabin now contains cliff-explosives that can be placed in hold's chests to remove them
- Moved repeating code snippets into seperate functions
- Coin requisitioning replaced by a 'tax' that takes only 25% of each player's coins
- Scaled up coin economy; every biter kill now provides at least one coin; rocket coin rewards now default to the second reward chest
- Deckhand nerfed
- small adjustments to wave spawning
- cannon resistance buffed
- biters now deal bonus damage at night (up to a maximum of 10%)
- uranium ammo is now properly researchable
- modular armor/equipment slightly less rare
- biters produced per unit of pollution produced by vanilla methods now scales with difficulty
- fuel cost of major upgrades decreased
- coin reward from killing spitters doubled
