UPDATE: These changes have now been pushed to the stable branch, along with a few other small fixes. Enjoy!
It’s been a busy week and a half since our last bugfix update. While the artists have been forging ahead on content for the next major patch, we programmers have been going through lots of user feedback, stomping out bugs, and cleaning up a few annoying problems that have been on the To Do list for too long.
- Crafting and inventory windows can be closed by pressing the key or activating the object that opened them
- Crafting (and other interfaces) close when you are no longer near the object
- Interacting with objects now requires the player have line of sight to them. This means that you cannot sit in chairs, flip switches, or use crafting stations through walls.
- Add race-specific craftable storage lockers, accessible from the Robotic Crafting Table.
- Fix bug with Erchius Horror causing beams to deal damage in areas different from the visual beam positions
- Fix bugs with Targeted Blink which allowed blinking through walls and could result in players being thrown outside of the world. Any characters previously broken by this bug should be usable again.
