This week our graphic artists have provided us with a new host of exciting assets to feast our eyes on, while our programmers remain hard at work on the biggest features coming to 0.5.9. It’s shaping up to become a sizable release, and we can’t wait to see it come to fruition.
Programming
- New DevBuild for our patrons:
- Fixed remaining cases where the new auto-evo islands fixing code could get permanently stuck
- Refactored our game screen fade manager and tweaked the fades
- Early multicellular editor now says it is loading that and not the microbe editor
- Fixed ATP and HP values being able to go offscreen, now they clip properly and have a tooltip that has the full value
- Improved our custom bbcode support for key icon displaying
- Added a new debugging overlay with a few new debug helping features
- Updated translations
- Our graphics artists and programmers have been experimenting with planet generation. The process of getting it right can be pretty humorous, and provide insight on just how complicated some things can be.
- Oliveriver has been making progress on the new-game settings
