Bug Fixes

  • Bugfixes.
  • Fixed external code loading.
  • Performance bugfixes.
  • A one-line fix so colonists take stacks of items to storage after crafting them (not just one).

Changes

  • Reworked debug lister menu to handle large numbers of options. Also added a type-in filter.
  • Started refactoring map generation into encapsulated steps and parameterized them.
  • Pawn decision trees are now defined in XML.
  • Added simple door. Cheaper, but cannot be powered.
  • Filled out storyteller moddability.
  • Finished refactoring map generation into encapsulated, parameterized steps.
  • Thick rock roofs now drop ‘collapsed rocks’ instead of solid rocks.
  • Disallowed building very close to the map edge. This discourages weird building patterns that exploit edges and corners and stress game systems.
  • Resource lister now counts meals.
  • Started automatic hunting. So far, colonists can go kick animals to death. Doesn’t work so well for boomrats.
  • Moved JobDefs into XML.
  • Job reports like “Hauling Metal.” or “Eating meal.” are now in JobDef, not code.
  • Finished automated hunting. Colonists will hunt with guns or melee attacks.
  • Pawns now try to eat nice meals when they have the choice over nutrient meals.
  • Aptitude has become “average of relevant skills” out of 20 to reduce confusion.
  • Damage types are now defined in xml definitions.
  • Recipes can now give skills.
  • Hydroponics are more fertile and now require power or the plants die. You can also now set what to grow on them.
  • Raiders come from specific factions and don’t always drop from orbit.
  • Bedding in and debugging generated faction system.
  • Tribal raiders now spawn and attack. Created short bow, great bow, and handful-of-stones weapons.

  • Pawns of warring factions now fight.
  • Let pawns spawn with minigun and L-15 LMG.
  • Refactored gun spawning system to work by tech level, spawn tags, and pawn kind money.
  • Pawns now spawn with backstories from appropriate spawn category for their faction.
  • Started trying to fix save/load.
  • Restricted hairdos by faction. No more pirates or tribals in pigtails.
  • Mods list is now scrollable.
  • Can now individually hide zones.
  • Tribals now have special names (no more tribal Bob Smiths).
  • All pawn kinds can now carry stuff in their inventory, like silver, and will spawn with some. Hooray, a reason to attack people!
  • Faction spawning is now data-driven.
  • XML loader now warns on finding no usable defs in a file.
  • XML loader now warns and explains on finding anything besides a proper
  • tag inside a list element.
  • You can now call factions on the radio and talk to them. You can offer them silver to improve relations.
  • Colonists don’t get sad about being in darkness until they haven’t seen a light for 3-4 hours.
  • Corpses can now rot.
  • Pawns now spawn with randomized goodies. Yay, something to steal!
  • Faction relations change over time.
  • For modders: Beauty and TransmitsPower are now overridable properties of Things and Buildings.
  • Launch pad replaced with orbital trade beacon. Trade system clarification commences.
  • Mental break probability is much lower.
  • Colonists will now sleep on the ground if exhausted.
  • Bills no longer vanish on hitting zero count (you can reactivate them without reconfiguring them).
  • Bill config interface displays ingredient search radius ring.
  • Alerts now have a moving arrow to draw attention to critical alerts. They are draw on top of the letter stack and so are more visible.
  • It is now impossible to place a hopper in an invalid position.
  • Modders can now create custom Def subclasses.
  • Modders can now make custom code to define building placement restricters.
  • Colonists now undraft themselves if they’ve been doing nothing for at least a quarter of a day and there are no enemies on the map.
  • Merged architect and direct mode code for displaying commands. Direct mode now displays commands for selected things along the bottom of the screen, the same way Architect mode does.
  • Game can now natively load dictionaries of data with def references as keys or values.
  • Reworked early-game alerts into a todo list style. “Need growing zone”. “Build a room”. And so on.
  • Now, if someone tries to get food from a paste dispenser fails, they first try to fill it, even without being assigned as a hauler or cook.
  • Corpse hauling is now globally prioritized above other hauling.
  • Right-click prioritize menu now gives sensible reasons why actions cannot be prioritized (e.g. haul -> “no place configured to store this”)
  • Bill dialog now warns you if you add a bill that no colonist has the skill to do.
  • Drafted pawns now automatically beat adjacent fires.
  • Redesigned AI King into a proper state machine so it can handle more complex multi-faction combats and more intricate goals.
  • Refactored traveler behavior as a king of squad directive, so you can have traveling groups who stay together.
  • The tutor now properly teaches about the bills tab.
  • Humanoids no longer eat raw food unless they are near-starving at least.
  • Faction relations now measured on a -100 to 100 scale instead of 0-100.
  • Roughed in a way to call allies for combat aid. If they like you enough, they’ll send a group of friendly fighters to help you. Useful in a pinch against tough raids.
  • Travelers arrive in groups sometimes.
  • Can no longer place a no roof region where there is a thick roof.
  • Friendly factions will not help you fight their own friends.
  • Built up and redesigned AI code so factions can fight each other properly.
  • Staging enemies no longer assault you on sight. They will hold their staging position and defend. Hopefully pre-emptive attacks become more meaningful this way.
  • Enemies now stage attacks for randomized amounts of time.
  • Ally forces now hang around a reasonable point near your base if there are no enemies. After some time, they leave together as a group (they become travelers).
  • If harmed, traveling groups stop and defend as a group. They resume traveling if they are not harmed for some time.
  • Roughed in visitor event: groups from non-hostile factions visit the colony, chill for a while, and leave.
  • You can now suspend bills without deleting or modifying them for easy later reactivation.
  • AI will now immediately store items after creating them at a bench (if there are multiple items, the first one will be automatically insta-stored). This is part of the crafting job and is independent of hauling.
  • Testing and grinding down bugs produced over the past few weeks.
  • Various minor usability improvements.
  • Spent a while de-spaghettifying map initialize code, as well as moving the world data out of the map itself.
  • Colonists now start out with the work types they’re best at enabled, instead of everyone having the same settings.
  • New alerts make tiny bell noises.
  • Different teams have different color names by randomly shading within the red range (hostile) or blue range (neutral). So you can tell apart two different hostile groups.
  • Guns are now visible in peoples’ hands when aiming or in certain other circumstances.
  • Most code-driven text can now be translated. Most text is now linked to the translation system.
  • Rain now slowly washes away blood.
  • In the bill interface: made Make X and Make Until exclusive. Gave them separate short form outputs.
  • Designation categories (Orders, Buildings, Furniture, Zones, etc) are now data-driven. Modders can add new ones.
  • Thing categories (for storage settings, etc) are now modular defs. They can be localized, and modders can add new ones without replacing the whole tree.
  • Fertilizer pump mod integrated into core.

Additions
