Version 0.9.3

Bit of a longer update cadence. Some new tech had to be implemented.

'Muxing' blocks, for merging and splitting inputs is now a thing.

Play with the new ones using Ctrl+Alt+D and then selecting a version with 1-4.

Hit Enter at the main menu for a pipe screen saver.

• Space swaps between solid color and random.

• Shift swaps some views.

• Enter again to return to main menu.

0.9.3

• Fixed issue where collision calculations for block placement would say a block is safe to place because it was including CPU Blocks in its count of overlapping actors.

  • 15 wall blocks with 3 overlapping blocks equaled an 18 block CPU, allowing it to be placed.

  • It now escapes block placement if it finds even a single CPU.

• Added in the blocks planned for versions 2-4.

  • All these are enabled when Ctrl+Alt+D are pressed for debug tools.

• A system for generating multi-color blocks has been implemented, and block design and spawning has been reworked.

• Automatic Interconnect Multiplexer (MUX) has been implemented, which is an automatic splitter block.

  • The input wires pulse when they request a resource from the input block.

  • They will distribute requests across any blocks that are connected, swapping if they get multiple requests.

  • For example, 2 power are attached to the outputs, with 4 input storage.

  • They will swap across every 2 blocks taking resources evenly.

  • The logic should be pretty natural, but logic when multiple Mux are chained together is still a little iffy.

• Abstraction upgrades have been adjusted to properly adjust depending on cube side so they line up now.

• A lot of blocks have had their pip locations adjusted to allow for more natural wiring.

• Added a 'Transfer Per Heartbeat' display to the left panel which shows how many units the blocks request or create per second.

• Auto settings load for audio settings have been set for all sound related choices.

  • This should hopefully fix the speed at which sound levels can be updated.

• Fixed a bug where the sound settings were not being saved properly after exiting the menu.

• Fixed bug where Research manager can be clicked off of.

  • Was not clearing hovered mouse actors when the menu was opened.

• Added in a little Easter-egg visualizer.

  • Hit Enter at the main menu.

  • Needed it for the trailer, leave me alone. It was fun.

  • Space swaps between solid color and random.

  • Shift swaps some views.

  • Enter again to return to main menu.

• Fixed issue where resource targets would not unlock when enabling all research.

• Updated some, but not all of the new block ghost pips.

  • Placer beware.

• Harvester 4 is still broken.

• Abstraction is still super messed up.

I'm trying okay,
