This patch adds new parts to diversify building options, and brings a full batch of new fixes and improvements.
Additions:
- Added 7 new parts which should help make ship designs more interesting. These are all structure parts.
- Added the option to have your character move relative to the direction your character is facing rather than relative to the screen. Toggle this with Z key.
Changes:
- When mining resources will now be placed in your backpack by default, and will only be placed on your hotbar if your backpack is full.
- Reduced backpack slot count.
- Lowered the amount of oxygen available in an ice node.
- Updated backend server code. (This should fix a lot of issues we were having with servers going offline.)
- Improved the maglocks locking distance and smoothness of operation.
- Slightly lowered the flame width on a small chemical thruster.
- Backpack visuals and sized changed to improve readability.
- Inventory tiles now update based on container size.
Fixes:
- Stopped inventory item quantity values from displaying long decimal values.
- Fixed issue with resolutions other than 16:9 not scaling the UI properly. UI should function on most resolutions now.
- Fixed an error that was caused by an active thruster being destroyed.
- Fixed an error which occurred when parts with roofs were destroyed in some situations.
