Feature Friday - May 3, 2019
Added a new book: The Artless Beauty.
Added a new energy cell mod: radio-powered.
Added reasons for why satellite-sourced radio-power might be occluded: orbital debris, glass storms, flocks of birds, acid rain, drift film, or unidentified anomalies.
Added new dialog for hatters, glovers, and chefs.
You can now name unnamed locations in your journal (Locations tab > hit 'N').
All villagers can now give you directions, regardless of their species.
You can no longer jump while prone.
Robots in sleep mode no longer snore.
When a creature with a carapace is knocked prone, there's a chance they become stuck in that position until they make an Agility save. This applies to players with the Carapace mutation.
When the Barathrumites teach you to craft thermoelectric cells via the water ritual, they no longer pour lava on you. Same with lead-acid cells and acid.
Amnesia no longer causes autoexplore to cycle endlessly.
Recoilers are no longer auto-identified, except for the ones you receive as quest rewards.
Feral lah no longer produce pods while frozen.
Dazed now applies the correct move speed penalty.
Dart and booster turrets deployed by dynamic turret tinkers now use only empty injectors as ammo.
Large-scale reality stabilization effects are less laggy.
Remove the errant dais tiles from the top of the Six Day Stilt cathedral map.
Fixed a bug that sometimes caused you not to receive the recoiler reward from non-Joppa starting village quests.
Fixed a bug that caused Heightened Hearing and Sense Psychic to continue detecting creatures once they moved outside your range of detection.
Fixed a bug that caused historic relic retrieval quests to fail to register as completed.
Fixed a bug that prevented rocket turret tinkers from properly setting up their turrets.
Fixed a bug that caused juice saps to obliterate stacked energy cells.
Fixed a bug that caused unequip messages to appear when a creature died.
Fixed Sparafucile's maker's mark.
Fixed some grammar issues when traversing historic sites on the world map.
Fixed typos in Barathrum's dialogue and Issachari dialogue.
[modding] Added a new tag, TurretStockExclusive. Among the ammo blueprints that are candidates for a turret's stock ammunition (via MagazineAmmoLoader), if at least one has this tag, then all the blueprints that don't have this tag are excluded from consideration.
[modding] Added a new tag, TurretStockWeight, that can be used to specify a blueprint's relative frequency in turret ammo stocks. Specify the weight in the value; the default is 1.

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.
