Bioscanning no longer provides stats on inanimate objects. That's now the domain of a new form of scanning: structural scanning.
New item: structural scanning bracelet.
New item: VISAGE (Visual Instrument and Sensory Augmentation, G Edition).
Children of the Deep now start with a structural scanning bracelet slotted with a full combustion cell.
Itchy skin now counts as a negative status effect.
Emptying a pool by drinking from it no longer leaves behind a 0-dram pool.
Emptying a container by drinking from it no longer leaves traces of its previously-held liquids.
When a hostile and a non-hostile creature are stacked in the same tile, your attacks into that tile now target the hostile creature.
Disabled some antisocial NPC behaviors when they are members of a party. Example: party-member pilgrims no longer go on pilgrimages.
If you level up Beguiling while you have a creature beguiled, the new HP bonus now applies to the currently beguiled creature.
Fixed an issue where creatures sometimes refused to die.
Fixed some more issues that caused death effects to trigger multiple times.
Fixed an issue where the Toughness bonus from the Two-Hearted mutation remained even if the creature lost Two-Hearted.
Fixed a rare issue where cooking effects that reduced the length of the 'ill' status effect prevented other end-of-turn actions from occurring.
Fixed an issue that caused mutations to disappear from the character screen after loading a game.
Fixed an issue that caused abilities to disappear from the ability screen and not be activateable after loading a game.
Fixed a typo in the Intimidate messaging.
Fixed a bug where item boot sequences restarted after loading a game.
Fixed a few tinkerable items having multiple recipes.
[modding] Removed the SmartUseLookAt part in favor of the existing SmartuseLooks part.
[modding] Effects intended to make a creature a long-term party member (Beguiling, Proselytize, Rebuke Robot, water ritual recruitment, self-cloning, summoning curios, and merchant guards) now fire an event called BecomeCompanion.
[modding] The TinkerItem part has a new property, SubstituteBlueprint, which is the name of a blueprint to use instead of the item's blueprint for tinkering recipe purposes. This allows the use of special-purpose inheritor blueprints like Drained Chem Cell and Horticulturalist Bio-Scanning Bracelet to avoid what appear to be duplicate recipes.
[modding] Added a new part, MultiIntPropertyChanger. This is like IntPropertyChanger, but instead of the AffectedProperty and Amount fields, it has an AffectedProperties field whose values look like: "PropertyA:3,PropertyB:7". This means that when active the item increases the equipper's intproperty PropertyA by 3 and their PropertyB by 7.
[modding] Added a new part, Hangable, for items that hang in their environment in some fashion. Its properties are: SameCellSupportSufficient (whether an object in the same cell with the property or tag HangingSupport is sufficient for the item to hang on, defaults to true) and SupportPointsRequired (the number of cells out of the cardinally adjacent cells, plus the same cell if SameCellSupportSufficient is false, that must have a wall or an object with the property or tag HangingSupport in it for the object to hang, defaults to 2). The part issues the event StartHanging when its hanging state goes from false to true and StopHanging when it goes from true to false.
[modding] The Bed part now integrates with the Hangable part so that if the parent object has a Hangable part, the Bed part doesn't function unless the item is hung up.

Caves of Qud - Linux [214.01 M]
Caves of Qud is a science fantasy roguelike epic steeped in retrofuturism, deep simulation, and swathes of sentient plants. Come inhabit an exotic world and chisel through layers of thousand-year-old civilizations. Decide: is it a dying earth, or is it on the verge of rebirth?
You arrive at the oasis-hamlet of Joppa, along the far rim of Moghra'yi, the Great Salt Desert. All around you, moisture farmers tend to groves of viridian watervine. There are huts wrought from rock salt and brinestalk. On the horizon, Qud's jungles strangle chrome steeples and rusted archways to the earth. Further and beyond, the fabled Spindle rises above the fray and pierces the cloud-ribboned sky.
You clutch your rifle, or your vibroblade, or your tattered scroll, or your poisonous stinger, or your hypnotized goat. You approach a watervine farmer—he lifts the brim of his straw hat and says, "Live and drink, friend."
Who are you?
Play the role of a mutant indigenous to the salt-spangled dunes and jungles of Qud, or play a pure-strain descendant from one of the few remaining eco-domes—the toxic arboreta of Ekuemekiyye, the Holy City; the ice-sheathed arcology of Ibul; or the crustal mortars of Yawningmoon.You arrive at the oasis-hamlet of Joppa, along the far rim of Moghra'yi, the Great Salt Desert.

What can you do?
Anything and everything. Caves of Qud is a deeply simulated, biologically diverse, richly cultured world.- Assemble your character from over 70 mutations and defects and 24 castes and kits—outfit yourself with wings, two heads, quills, four arms, flaming hands, or the power to clone yourself—it's all the character diversity you could want.
- Explore procedurally-generated regions with some familiar locations—each world is nearly 1 million maps large.
- Dig through everything—don't like the wall blocking your way? Dig through it with a pickaxe, or eat through it with your corrosive gas mutation, or melt it to lava. Yes, every wall has a melting point.
- Hack the limbs off monsters—every monster and NPC is as fully simulated as the player. That means they have levels, skills, equipment, faction allegiances, and body parts. So if you have a mutation that lets you, say, psionically dominate a spider, you can traipse through the world as a spider, laying webs and eating things.
- Pursue allegiances with over 60 factions—apes, crabs, robots, and highly entropic beings—just to name a few.
- Follow the plot to Barathrum the Old, a sentient cave bear who leads a sect of tinkers intent on restoring technological splendor to Qud.
- Learn the lore—there's a story in every nook, from legendary items with storied pasts to in-game history books written by plant historians.
- Die—Caves of Qud is brutally difficult and deaths are permanent. Don't worry, though—you can always roll a new character.
