9th July – Norsing Around

Happy Thursday!

These familiar creatures were spotted roaming around the new alpine biome today! They wouldn’t confirm whether or not they were wearing a costume, though, or what the costume was meant to be. In fact, they got quite defensive. I wonder what their deal is?

Tccoxon and Healthire’s NPC reactions continue to liven up colonies and towns, too! These NPCs are playing air hockey together. Realism!

‘Til tomorrow!

Healthire and Tccoxon have been working on NPC interactions/reactions, so here’s a quick example of that! :D

If you’ve got a teleporter in your colony, NPCs will use it. But are they really the same NPCs when they come out or have their atoms been copied rather than moved, essentially killing their former selves for the sake of convenient travel?

These are the spooky questions.

Today, Tccoxon and Healthire have been doing some work on NPC reactions.

Kyren has been working on performance stuff, and Metadept has been working on terrain. Specifically, he’s trying to improve blending between different sectors and reduce the number of caves on the surface. He’s sent over some images from the utility he’s using to do this, and it’s… trippy.surfaceterrain33‘Til tomorrow! <3 <3
