• Fixed that a KillTipTrigger with no damage_type would never trigger.
• Fixed that resource paths like sprite and sound filenames could be relative.

New versions are released as experimental first and later promoted to stable. If you wish to switch to the experimental version on Steam, choose the experimental Beta Participation option under game settings; on the stand-alone version, check Experimental updates under Other settings.

Les goooo. 2.1 is here

[mmmPI]

Hey it's offcial now !!!

* Added latency hiding for remotely driven cars.

I'm surprised that didn't make it into an FFF!

Thanks for the great updates!

Shotgun has been buffed. Nice! Will evaluate again, since the buff for 2.0 wasn't quite convincing to make me using it. If it's now possible to continue running while shooting as with the other weapons, this might be the crucial change.

I decompressed it over 2.0.77. It failed to start: "Failed to load mods: __quality__/prototypes/recycling.lua:48: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'default_icon_size' (a nil value)".

I'm on Linux. I think it's a leftover file causing trouble or something.

Wow! It's alive!

Nice shotgun buffs, BTW.

You can’t do that. You need to delete the current files if you intend to use the zip version in the same folder as simply extracting the zip does not remove any of the old files that should be deleted.

• Increased asteroid crushing asteroid chunk yield from 20% to 30%.
• Increased advanced asteroid crushing asteroid chunk yield from 5% to 10%.
• Fixed asteroid chunks were not marked as lossy catalyst.

I think you mean "Fixed asteroid chunks were now marked as lossy catalyst."

I loaded my 2.0 save and checked. Asteroid chunks in the processing recipes are no longer affected by productivity, completely killing space casino. That was unexpected and doesn't align with the FFF wording!

It's also a huge nerf to *all* space-based production. Most 2.0 spaceships blueprints would stop being self-sufficient due to the max 4x reduction of *all raw materials*, mostly ice.

I suggest an immediate reversion.

Hazard concrete now recycles into concrete ingredients, that means one more lossless upcycling step in the upcycling loop, so it's more efficient to get quality concrete. But recycling is now as slow as concrete, so it became quite difficult on Fulgora to void surplus concrete.

I understand the design with moving the quality mod and all, but it's the first thing lazy people would do. Just deleting the old folder would also delete all saves and configuration file. If unzipping-over can't be done, it deserves a warning in the download page.

I deleted the data folder and re-extracted the zip over and it sorta worked.

Nice, finally some interesting QoL stuff to play around with. Thanks!

But also tbh im a little bit dissapointed that there are no new circuit network features for trains. Is the feature list already complete or is there still some stuff coming?

Yeah they really went in for the kill. Where are all those people now who were saying to just research asteroid productivity for space casinos, it's only fair? I don't get this change.

They basically locked everyone at 10 levels of research, no? I don't think this hurts as many ships as you think.

No, the wording is correct. It was not marked as catalyst. That was a bug, especially since they buffed base return ratio from 20% to 30% (which with +300% prod bonus results in 120% asteroid chunk return – a net positive loop). So they fixed it and marked it so in tge patch notes.

5 levels for the basic crushing recipe, 10 for the advanced one. If you consider productivity modules it's even less.

Still wish they made it so Hazard Concrete was just a "rotated" or "flipped" version of regular Concrete, so it wouldn't need to be an additional Item. by rotated/flipped I mean something that makes it so you can place regular concrete and there is a mode that turns it into hazard concrete, and if you harvest the hazard concrete you will get regular concrete back.

That way you wouldn't need to paint a percentage of your Concrete to be able to place it in the way you want it.
