Steam Update #21!

The Sentient · published

A lot of playtesting going on behind the scenes to ensure the next updates run fairly smoothly. Alpha 6 provided a great deal of overall stability and fixes to the game so this updates continues with that focus.

The latest update brings the attention back on the crew while cleaning up some of the power armor bugs introduced with 6.0. Crew members when filling up their stats now provide a grace period before stats begin to immediately drop again. This should help with removing some of the feeling of constantly chasing after the crew.

Also added several comments when crew members are trying to interact with an object that is full or someone is using it and they are unable to.

Next up is some improvements to the overall flow of the game with some additional crew updates before moving onto Alpha 7 with the on board ship events.
