Less Rage Update - 1.1.1

Welcome to the Less Rage Update!

Craterbound has definitely had a bit of a rocky start, with many of our players understandably not knowing how to start the game, find bosses, defeat the tanks, etc. Craterbound's first major update serves to fix these issues and to rebalance early game combat.

Tank Changes

Tanks have been the bane of many player's existence, including myself. Thankfully, they have been changed for the better:

Tanks can now be killed without crafting expensive EMPs
Tanks can be killed by attacking them several times with your stun pistol, the amount of times is dependent on game difficulty (2/4/5)
To balance this, tanks are now stunned for less time, dependent on the game difficulty (1.25/1.0/0.75)
Tank random resource amount range has been increased.

Quality of Life Fixes

Bosses can be found on the tablet's map through the skull icons
Fabricators now have item descriptions so that you know what you're fabricating
Multitool laser now lines up with crosshair
Added loading screen
Enemies repopulate faster, giving less time where there are no enemies around
Added FOV and Invert Mouse settings
Copper asteroid fragments now spawn closer to impact and give more resources

Bug-fixes

Fixed players on slow computers falling through the map
Fixed bug where players' sensitivities would default to zero
Rocks/Enemies should no longer spawn on bases or trees
Rocks no longer float mid-air
Enemies will no longer spawn on unwalkable slopes
Compass direction now lines up with tablet map

In summary, I hope this update provides many of the changes to Craterbound you all were hoping to see, and allows many of you to have a more fun and enjoyable gameplay experience. Make sure to stay tuned for what's coming next and let us know what changes you want to see added to the game! As always, if you ever need any help or have suggestions, please reach out through the Official Discord Server.

Craterbound is a space sandbox survival game set on a hostile alien planet. Explore an expansive and open world, upgrade your technology, and fight your way off the planet!

Explore a Strangely Beautiful Alien Planet

You work for the most frugal aerospace company out there, Craterbound Industries. Unfortunately for you, your mission has lived up to the company's name once again. You have crash-landed on the alien world of Brahe-5, filled with dangerous creatures and rolling hills.

Fight, Kill, Mine

On Brahe-5 it is kill or be killed. Luckily for you, your company has provided you with moderately adequate weapons. Your multitool can be used both to dissolve conquered enemies and take their resources.

Craft, Upgrade, Repair

You start out with just a basic shelter and tools. Your only means of escape is miles away, and your oxygen is limited. Use the resources you collect from the planet's wildlife to upgrade your suit, improve your tools, and repair your cruiser.

Deploy Shelters and Outposts

Brahe-5 is a big planet, and you will need shelter to survive the creature attacks and replenish your ever-diminishing oxygen supply. Construct habitats in order to fabricate upgrades, store resources, and fend off attacks.
