Today's update is mostly focused on improving mod support and some bug fixes, including Achievements and Workshop support on Mac! For modding, we've added support for multiple pages of characters so it's now possible to have lots of mods that add new explorers enabled. You can now have more than one Secret Explorer unlocked at once, and they'll show up as Rivals too! Those creating mods - we're loving your work! We've made a few improvements to the mod workflow, including much better logging for mod errors, as well as the ability for images to be properly reloaded when you click the Reload Mods button. Join the Discord community to chat with other modders and us devs about your mods - we'll be adding more features to the modding system with the next patch from your requests.

Content

• Forsaken villages spawn Abominations
• Adjusted cultist coca stash
• Adjusted Jungle Rot icon
• The New Game gallery now can have multiple pages of explorers if more than 20 are unlocked
  • Can now have multiple custom explorers unlocked at once
  • The random character option is now the first one

Modding

• Tile Border Sprites can now be modded, just add a borderSprites section to your tile (full documentation coming soon)
• Improved warnings that are printed to the log when mod content contains errors
• Fixed issues with the replace operator not always working
• Game now longer creates a mods/mods folder
• Fixed issues with mod localisation files
• Loading mod data when starting a new game only happens if necessary, so there's not a large hitch by default
• The small portrait image id will only have a file extension appended if necessary

Debug Bar

• Expedition maps are now generated using a seed.
  • While hovering over the "Test Game" button in the debug bar with your mouse, type to enter the string that will be used to generate the Test Game
  • A map generated with the same seed and parameters (Pocket, Difficulty, Expedition number etc) will always generate the same map layout
  • When starting a game, the seed will be printed to the log. This can help with reporting bugs.
• Added a "God" toggle to fights: when active, your party cannot be harmed
• Added a "Win" button to fights: when clicked, you kill all enemies
• When spawning a tile, if that can't be spawned at the player location it will be spawned one tile north (instead of nothing happening)
• Reloading mods now properly reloads images
• Can now start a Test Game using a pocket that doesn't contain a goal (a goal will be spawned)

Bugfixes

• Steam Achievements and Workshop integration now works correctly on Mac (the overlay doesn't display though)
• Fix for game not respecting the OS scaling setting
• Fixed scaling changes not taking effect immediately
• Fixed debug bar not rendering correctly at some scaling settings
• Fixed issue where small white dots would sometimes appear on the landscape
• Fixed issues with tiles missing borders along the region borders
• Fixed issues with tile borders still rendering even when tiles have been consumed by the void
• Fixed Bug where forsaken Villages sometimes fire non-forsaken events
• Fixed superstitious animals
• Mission now checks if trek is full before offering to recruit cultist after cultist takeover
• Fixed crash when entering item screen with mods that add items enabled
• Fix for being stuck in a location if a mod has set the leave event to be invalid
• Fix for the game not loading if an image is referenced by multiple sprites
• Fix for compass not displaying correctly after loading a saved expedition
• Compass is no longer 100% in the first expedition (unless playing on Easy)
