Hey Settlers! We have been watching streamers and YouTubers building crazy big settlements that we didn't anticipate. We noticed the lag and FPS drop during the pod placement for very large settlements. In this patch, we fixed these fps drop issues, and overall increased the stable FPS value. Another big issue was that when you launch a spaceship successfully the EXP gain was linear. We changed this EXP curve to make it so that when you successfully finish a planet, you gain enough EXP to unlock the next one. So you have to play every planet once to unlock the next now. We did other enhancements and bugfixes, here is a full list of them; Bug Fixes - Fixed start treatment on load. - Fixed issue where treatment would not stop on unassignment. - Fixed double production not working. - Fixed tunnel collider issues. - Fixed null ore on load. - Fixed FPS drop when tab hold & flickering. - Fixed main menu rendering issues for late SteamAPI response. - Fixed connection issues on rotate over time. - Fixed issue with saving and loading ore. - Fixed spaceship part controls. - Fixed issue with late-game FPS drop (octagons on slot layer). - Fixed issue where finished ores were not removed on load. - Fixed issue where all miners were not destroyed when all ores were finished. Improvements - Synchronized balance changes for first level pods. - Added timer for ongoing events. - Added "artifact collected" notification. - Improved event timer display. - Improved performance. - Active event timer on notification panel (Like Sandstorm and Flood). - Use PlanetController's GetSuccessfulLiftoffExp method. - Calculate launch percentages before updating them. - Updated launch info panel every second. - Demolish now has an SFX. Changes - Don't infect the same settler for sickness events - Don't let player rotate thrusters on the side.
