New

    • Some rewards found in excavation will be rainbow rewards that give many times the regular reward value

    • Only fossils, treasure chests, and clocks can be rainbow (not currencies at this time)

    • Feature unlocked in the excavation shop

    • Increase value multiplier & spawn chance of rainbow rewards in:

      • Leveling in Excavation

      • Excavation Shop

      • Medal Shop

    • View your current value multiplier & spawn chance in the statistics tab

    • Added wiki page explaining the mechanic in-game

Changed

  • Lifetime VIP owners now receive 200 daily pickaxes instead of 100

  • Increased currency drop odds in Excavation by 2x, making it more satisfying and easier to complete daily quests

  • Reduced scanner achievement requirements for the last 2 steps (from 2000/3000 to 1500/2000)

  • Reduced crew squad equip cooldown to 1 hour (from 4 hours) and reduced gem skip cost from 50 to 25

  • Moved the transfer squad button so it no longer covers crewmate information

Fixed

  • Holiday event tasks now always start/end on Sundays

  • Crew squad upgrades no longer reset after rebirthing in the Ascension Tree

  • Fixed dig indicators on mobile not disappearing when autoplay was enabled while in the excavation shop

  • Fixed animating texts not rendering for the first few frames when displayed
