Find out how to switch from the TerraTech main branch to the TT_Unstable Beta branch here IMPORTANT NOTE: We've performed a big overhaul of the underlying tech to create greater variety in the world of TerraTech. During the TT_Unstable period from 0.7.4.4 onwards, games saves are unlikely to load in subsequent versions. Feel free to explore the new biomes in each TT_Unstable update from 0.7.4.4 onwards and give us feedback here or via the TerraTech forum at forum.terratechgame.com. Game saves will be fully supported again as of Stable Update 0.7.5. New features / content / improvements:

• Added an onscreen Hints System to provide useful gameplay information to the player as they play the game.
• Player Techs can now be stored in SCUs and the Tech’s blueprint can be used to load multiple versions of Techs from the SCU as long as the required blocks are available.
• New snapshots will be saved inside a dedicated Snapshots folder, with each Tech in its own sub-folder.

• Added several new sub-biomes to appear in the game. Sub-biomes are alternate versions of the existing biomes but with different terrain height patterns, textures and resource distribution. The sub-biomes that can be played in the game include:
  • Grasslands:
    • Grasslands - the old grasslands
    • Copse of Trees - a more sparsely populated grasslands with less trees in small groups
    • Rocky Ridge - undulating hills with less trees and more rocks
  • Desert:
    • Desert - the old desert
    • Moguls - a desert with some tight low bumps with large spaces between
    • Small Dunes - a desert with small sand dunes in a regular rippled pattern
    • Low Mesas - similar to Moguls but larger Mesa style bumps emerge from the ground
  • Mountain:
    • Mountains - the old mountains biome
    • Terraced Hills - several stepped platforms with smooth ramps between
    • Peaks - typical 'mountain' style terrain, pointed peaks, low valleys
    • Canyons - deep, steep canyons winding through tall sided cliffs
    • Eagles Nest - sheer tall cliffs with flat platforms at the top and little peaks above
    • Gorges - sheer tall cliffs with a wide flat valley below
  • Salt Flats:
    • There is only one variant of Salt Flats at the moment.
• Added a set of 30 different Trader Troll variants. The Trader Troll mission now selects an appropriately sized opponent for you to fight depending on the size of your own Tech.
• Updated recipe for GSO Refinery to only require unrefined resource chunks (2 Plumbite + 1 Carbite + 1 Oleite).
• Changed all GeoCorp Fixed Anchor, GSO Fixed Anchor and GSO Rotating Anchor Anchor Blocks from 'Standard' type to 'Manufacturing' type.
• Added all the Special Colour Blocks and Hats to the list of Blocks that can be offered in Block Reward Crates.
• Increased the load bearing strength of the Hawkeye Armoured and Enclosed Wheels.
• R&D Test Chamber:
  • Changed EXP Tow Rings and Hooks from Accessories to Standard Blocks category (R&D Test Chamber owners only).

    • EXP Monster Truck Wheel

  • Removed Venture Avalanche Launcher, Hawkeye Sentry Turret, Moustache, Sombrero and Viking Helmet from R&D Test Chamber dispensers to make way for new blocks (these blocks can still be found in the inventory, they've just been removed from dispensers).

• Various minor fixes for missing attach points, filled cell issues and collision material errors.
• Updated desert terrain textures.

• Anchored blocks can be placed in close proximity to each other, causing them to overlap.
• Celestite crystals have not been set up yet to crumble in stages.
• Can incorrectly rename non-player bases.
• Multiple resources travelling close to each other along Conveyors may generate bottlenecks and clog bases up, especially around Refineries and Filters.
• Graphical issues with red projector on terrain when enemies spawn in.
• Markers for missions and bases when playing in 4:3 are offset slightly.
