Hi guys,
With on-going multiplayer work coming along very nicely (we'll have more to announce about this very soon) - we've decided to add a bunch of widely requested features to add more awesomeness to TerraTech while our code team stretch their multiplayer muscles.
Mobile SCU & Refineries, Tutorial Skip and more info on each block in the game are all things that players have been looking forward to for a while now - and here they are! We hope you enjoy the changes as much as we do.
Take a look at the shiny new 0.7.3 Update video here and as always, be sure to let us know your thought over on the Official Forums.
Have fun out there!

New features / content / improvements:
[olist]
- Within each game profile, once a game is saved after Big Tony is defeated, any subsequent playthrough within the same game profile allows the option for the opening turial sequence to be skipped.
- Press "i" while hovering over a block to view the following information about it:
- Block Category
- Corporation & Grade
- Rarity
- Sell Price
- Block Description
- Other helpful information, e.g. anchored, needs power, stores fuel, etc
- Press "R" while hovering over any non-player controlled Tech you want to rename.
- Missions are now available to select from Trading Station "Mission Boards" (the top panels) from GSO Grade 2 onwards. An introduction to the Mission Board is available after defeating the Trader Troll.
- Defend a friendly Tech for a set amount of time while enemies spawn to attack you and your friend.
- These missions start appearing after the Distress Signal mission in GSO Grade 3, from GeoCorp Grade 2 onwards, and both Venture and Hawkeye by default.
- Added Recover Delivery Crate Missions for all corporations at all grades and updated them so that you only get ambushed by enemies some of the time.
- When the Mission Log is empty, a mission to point the player towards Trading Stations to get more missions appears.
- Venture Grade 3
- It's an SCU block that works whilst attached to your Tech.
- It has a shorter pick-up range and it's more expensive than the regular SCU, but it's mobile.
- Venture Grade 2
- Works the same way as a regular refinery - but no longer needs to be anchored.
- Hawkeye Grade 3 missions are now available in Campaign.
- Updated all Hawkeye Tech Hunting Missions, added new ones and spread them out across all 3 grades.
- Increased the passive braking strength of the Hawkeye Tank Tracks to prevent them sliding around when carrying a heavy weight.
- Stopped Hawkeye Shotgun from applying damage to itself, occasionally causing a crash as a result.
- First pass of new audio, including new SFX for weapons, wheels and ambient sound.
- Old GSO AI Module
- Old GSO Up Conveyor
- Old GSO Down Conveyor
- Old GSO Mobile Delivery Cannon
- Old GSO Foundry
- Old GSO Mobile Furnace Generator
- Old GSO Refinery
- Old GSO Scrapper
- Old GSO Silo for Large Blocks
- Old GSO Fabricators (4 in total)
- Block revisions
- Reduced the chance for blocks to survive when detached from an exploding Cab or AI Module. This change is aimed at reducing the number of blocks that can be obtained through combat.
- Reduced the bullet spray for all machine guns.
- Reduced the amount of time that you can use a Booster for without a Fuel Tank attached.
- Reduced the booster falloff time on all Steering Hover blocks.
- Increased the power of the GSO Hover Plates, in line with the Venture one.
- Increased the damage of most melee weapons (GeoCorp Buzz Saw, GeoCorp Hammer Piston, GeoCorp Plasma Cutter, GeoCorp Diamond Drill, GeoCorp Cerberus Bore and GSO Small and Large Drills).
- Increased the range for all Venture machine guns.
- Increased the damage for all Hawkeye machine guns.
- Adjusted the fall-off rate for all Booster jets. The Venture Booster is the most twitchy and it falls off faster. GSO are in the middle and Hawkeye have the most powerful Booster, but also have a slower fall off, so they cannot be used for fine feathering, they provide a big, bold, blast.
- Boosters now require a minimum amount of fuel available before they can be used.
- Remote Chargers won't charge batteries which are almost full.
- The regular SCU now powers up faster and has a longer pick-up range.
- Increased the pick-up range of all Collectors. Venture has the longest range (but smallest capacity), GeoCorp has the shortest range (and highest capacity) and GSO is in the middle, but all ranges are still longer than they were before.
- Increased rotation options for the Venture Shield Bubble.
- Updated the damage per second of the Venture Flamethrower, it is now effective against Techs. Also increased its aiming rotation range and speed of rotation and increased the length of the flame jet.
- Hawkeye Rail Gun now has a narrow aiming arc to shoot targets that aren't directly in front.
- Added new special blocks Sombrero and Moustache (courtesy of Señor Ragequit).
- Mission revisions
- Added a tutorial message about block rotation controls after defeating Big Tony.
- Changed the design of Little Thief enemy during the Radar mission to slow it down a little, making it a bit easier to catch him.
- Restructured the Block Rewards to stop players from being awarded Crafting Blocks until after they have completed the appropriate Crafty Business missions.
- Added mission board descriptions for all missions.
- Added variant name and descriptions for generic missions.
- Trading Station revisions
- Allowed the Trading Station mission to occur at any Trading Station. The Trader Troll now lands from orbit when you get there.
- Trading Stations now restock their Mission Boards every day at dawn.
- Other tweaks
- Moved the respawn after death distance from 100 units (on the edge of enemy vision) to 150 units away (just out of sight range).
- Added lots of new Techs to the enemy population.
- Population Enemies now take Block Rarity into account when choosing which Enemy Techs to spawn. The majority of Techs are mostly made from Common Blocks and then some Uncommons and fewer Rare blocks.
- Removed the Techs "Bricky" and "Cannonz" from the enemy population for being a nuisance and causing a drop in frame rate.
