0.5.0 Patch Is Live with Vehicles and Navigation System


The 0.5.0 is here and there's only one update left till the Early Access launch on Tuesday next week (18th April). Important: The update is in the MAIN BRANCH. Don't forget to switch from BETAs. We're working around the clock to have our Nomads happy with the game next week. We have optimized the performance and added more graphic options for you to tinker with.

VEHICLES


But most of all - vehicles are back! Get your motors running. There's a known bug connected with them, which Pavel is working to get rid off, but for now: Known BUG: Try to avoid deleting the block that attaches wheel to the main body of the car (usually suspension) as this action results in a database error that stops terrain generation. Here's what to DO: Delete the wheel first! Here's what to DO to fix terrain generation: Save and load the game.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM


The compass now shows points of interest on the map - at this moment these include the escape pod, beacons you build and black boxes (you'll find out what these are when you die).

All changes in 0.5.0:


  • Navigation system online
  • Vehicles are back
  • The alpha planet now full of caves and cave-like formations
  • Decreased planet diameter from 64 to 32 kms to speed up the discovery of all biomes (subject to testing and changes)
  • Added more immersive start of the survival game
  • Escape Pod now your new starting point of the game
  • Decreased reflection on blocks
  • Tutorial for vehicles reintroduced
  • More things to tinker in options to fine-tune game's performance for your PC
  • Optimized water and terrain chunks
  • Optimized the way world objects spawn in the game
  • Added 3 new consumables (Dried Meat, Dried Fruitage, Biopaste). Available in FAD Machine
  • Survival rebalancing
  • Crafting rebalancing
  • Fixed Components disappearing while placing blocks at obstructed places
  • Updated Tech Tree
  • Double Clicking implemented in inventories
  • You can use the same button to open/close menus (inventory, containers, workbenches, etc.)
  • Magnetic Jack has particles now
  • Added 4 new Conditions - Hungry, Dry, Tired, Low Oxygen
  • Decreased the number of colliders on some world objects
  • Fixed ugly shadows coming through the glass
  • Animals now defend their nest as soon as you attack it
So that's it! The decreased planet size means your saves have to go, but you have been warned, Alpha Nomads. We're still sorry about that and certainly appreciate your courage, patience and due diligence when reporting bugs and things that pissed you off. Until next time!

Planet Nomads is a sci-fi sandbox game of survival on alien planets through lego-style building. You are a lone scientist crash-landing on a strangely captivating planet where no human has set foot before. Keeping your wit together and securing your basic survival needs, food, water and shelter, is your best start towards figuring out how to build a spaceship capable of interplanetary travels.

The game is coming to Early Access in Q1 2017 and is now in alpha. We are looking for testers. Check Planet Nomads website for more information. http://www.planet-nomads.com/

Planet Nomads provides a unique experience by combining building, survival and exploration together and making them equally important.

Building


Building is the cornerstone of Planet Nomads. What you build determines your chances of survival and increases your action radius and potential to uncover more materials. Your options include over a hundred building blocks to choose from and use to create nearly anything your imagination can come up with. Paired with working physics for land-based vehicles and fliers.

Exploration


You may have explored your immediate surrounding, but a few hundred kilometers away or a thousand meters higher, things could be radically different. Unlocking advanced technology allows you to explore the more hazardous places where you wouldn't survive before. The planets are up to 120 kms in diameter, with biomes changing as you travel from pole to pole.

Survival


Living the nomadic life is always full of danger and adventure. But mostly danger. Surviving on an inhabited planet is no easy task, but with careful planning, caution and a healthy amount of curiosity, you can do it. As long as you overcome radiation and poisonous atmosphere, avoid being slashed to pieces, frozen to death, eaten alive, starved and generally ended, that is.

Planet Nomads has been successfully Kickstarted and is being developed together with our community of Nomads.
