Version 16 Released

jasonrohrer · 2013-08-21 12:17:19

Along with a bunch of small bug fixes and improvements, this release changes the way a few different objects work in the game.

Wired wooden walls have been removed, and metal walls no longer transmit power. Doors and trapdoors also no longer transmit power. Animal movement has also changed slightly: animals now stop following/fleeing you when they can no longer see you.

These changes are minor, but they have an enormous impact on the emergent dynamics of the game. I'll be writing more about this soon.

A full list of changes can be found here:

don't like that i have to open my task manager and end the programme if i am quitting in a place that will kill me

could you have something like % is quit safely and * is suicide quit? or maybe a combination of keys to suicide-quit, 'ouch,' ':(,' 'et tu, ego?'

(maybe it doesn't affect many other people, but i am also playing around with multiple clients and having to guess which one is the one i want to close! luckily i am just playing around trying to make a fun $2000 house so no real losses so far)

Wait... why not just press the Suicide button before quitting? Why resort to the task manager?

I think that any place where QUIT is blocked is also a screen with a Suicide button, correct?
