Rescue Era Procellarum
The era carries a gameplay rebalance aimed mainly at the late game: long runs keep escalating more instead of stagnating, the moon surface is slightly less dependable as moonquakes may destabilize extenders and cause random clumps on the surface and extenders that power off and on rapidly may have sometimes problems powering back on.
Previous eras remain playable and keep taking scores. You can switch rescue era ruleset and leaderboard from the settings. Procellarum is already available and will become default 14 Aug.
Fixed:
A gravity well or repulsion field no longer switches off when the ship lifts off
Fixed a bug where NEXT readout could promise an upgrade that never came.
Every in-game announcement (upgrades, events, records, achievements, party banners) now comes out of one queue, one line at a time, so two can never be written across each other. Each shows for less time, and a backlog drains faster.
A disabled settings row can no longer be changed.
The rescue manual's controller rows name the left stick for steering and thrust.
The rescue manual says how to leave it on every page, not only the last.
Manual ammo labels shrink instead of running off a narrow page.
The leaderboard's period tabs answer a click anywhere on the tab, at any window size.
The first-launch privacy notice and the era-handover notice no longer have the main menu reading through them, and their text now fits the panel in every language.
Improvements to leaderboard checks.
Menus redraw far more often when idle and hold full frame rate while being used, so they respond immediately.
Desktop installers are smaller: removed unnecessary duplicate files on some cases.
Localization fixes:
Key names follow the player's own keyboard where the market prints a different one and each language's own word for the space bar. Reaches name entry, the key bindings list and the manual's controls table.
Hindi has a bundled font of its own, so Devanagari renders with joined conjuncts.
Vietnamese draws in the pixel font like every other language.
Thai words carrying SARA AM render in the game's own font again.
The language row draws each language's own name in the game font — Korean and Traditional Chinese were each missing one character of theirs.
Improvements to Indonesian and Filipino.
