Polishing for automation and queue handling

Increlution · published 26 Apr 2022, 13:04 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam
  • Added an "automation behavior" section to the ingame settings tab (Menu (ESC) > Game settings) with three new options related to automation
  • Added an automation option that causes empty jobs to be automated with "run once", if triggered when empty. Causing stocking up to happen after other actions of the same priority have completed, rather than before
  • Added an automation option to trigger low priority explorations with "stop before completion", if their time left is above 1 second
  • Added an automation option that allows you to prevent automatic refilling of the inventory when no automated explorations of a lower priority are available. Low priority used to do this, but this behavior now adjust to this configuration instead
  • Food-resource automations now trigger as "run once" if triggered by a cooking action that was initiated as "run once" as well
  • When jobs are automated to stall during combat, it now uses "run once" to get back to fighting as quickly as possible. This especially helps efficiency at lower maximum health values
  • Stalling with automations now properly triggers when starting a damaging exploration, if it is unable to start the exploration right away. Instead of triggering the warning too quickly
  • When queuing the same action as the last queued action, it now updates run options instead of skipping it (such as stop before completion)
  • Slightly reworked how hiding of resources in the inventory is handled with specific explorations, aiming to tackle a display bug that could cause resources to remain visible in the inventory when they were actually lost
  • Slightly reworked how queued actions are picked up as active action when moving forward in your queue, to tackle a few rare edge-cases that could cause actions to fail from starting
  • Reworked when passive jobs are processed in the gameloop, to prevent very rare queue conflicts with automation
  • Passive cooking jobs no longer trigger resource automation, to prevent some interruptions that could conflict with your queue
  • Fixed a bug that caused the first generation of new game+ to not properly add maximum health, if new game+ was initiated from the reincarnation screen
  • Fixed a bug in "stop before completion" that could cause the next queued action to be skipped upon stopping the active action
  • Fixed an issue that caused the "replace on start" option to sometimes trigger for automations when it should only apply to manual actions
  • Fixed a display bug that caused the reincarnation screen maximum health tooltip to not reset after new game plus, until the multiplier became above 1 again
  • Fixed a situation where if the game paused directly after a high-speed job, the bar could remain visually active during that pause
  • Corrected a small mathematical accuracy issue in the percentual timediff notation, for times slower than last run
  • Added a bit of text to clarify that you lose access to a chapter two job with a certain exploration

Game update6 Jul 2023Small maintenance updateAdded a new render-buffer flush mechanic to the window manager which aims to tackle the render-buffer getting out-of-sync after minimizing the game on some Windows hardware configurations. Due to none of my testing hardware being affected by the issue, this solution is somewhat of a theoretical approach and not fully confirmed as effective, but community testing results look promising Added add…Game update14 Jun 2023Minor update following the June QoL updateVarious hotfixes to tackle launch day issues with the QoL patch · Fixed an issue in the new restart generation feature that caused story completion times to not properly reset, which could lead to incorrect displayed times (those prior to the restart). This effect was purely visual/informational, and had no impact on progression. This fix takes one or two restarts or reincarnations to correct i…In-game event7 Jun 2023June's quality of life and player feedback updateWith this update I wanted to work through a significant amount of my feedback-backlog, primarily focusing on features that were too big to "pick up" during focused-developement cycles, such as content updates. It doesn't tackle the entirely of my list, but takes care of most things that don't have roadmap-benefits to hold off until more content is fleshed out. Let's get straight to todays chang…
