Chapter 4 continues as you explore the seaside to prepare yourself for a journey into the world. How will you travel the world? On your very own fire-powered ship of course! Recover the missing pieces of lost knowledge and construct your vessel bit by bit. You may have attained new power and have become stronger than ever, but new enemies have appeared that can challenge your new form. If you're feeling brave, you can even take on a nest of these creatures to discover how to craft the first legendary artifacts. This update also includes the official launch of the modding system. Creators can write new mods in the Squirrel language to access the LandTraveller API. Only a few features are available at the moment, but this system will be expanded in future updates. To get started, you can follow this guide: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2070658285 The components in the base engine have been updated and the engine itself moved to a new compiler, so things should perform even better.
