Patch 0.2.13 (The Starship Update)
The ship, missions, and the starmap have returned.
Upgrade modules have returned.
We added a grill, for cooking food early-game. And a Supply Station for crafting early-game.
Loot containers in derelict stations can now be marked for harvest. This makes almost the entire game playable without ever requiring manual control. We added Organ Healing Serum. Use to it instantly heal an organ to 100%.
Changes
Added back the ship, missions, and the starmap.
Increased duration of missions and the required skill level to perform them.
Ship now only offloads up to 4 crates
Colonists now have a chance to get infected when performing missions.
Added back upgrade modules.
Added many new generated "mini-dungeons" around the player's base. Including caves, a zen station, medical outposts, and more.
Player's base is now expanded only when warping, and boundary floors are no longer automatically extended.
Containers found in the wilderness can now be marked for "scavenge", and your colonists will automatically "dump" their contents. This is similar behavior to marking mining nodes for harvest.
Added Organ Healing Serum. Fully heals a random, damaged organ. You start with 5 of these. More can be crafted at the Medical Desk and also found in the Medilab. Tastes terrible. Colonists use this automatically.
Toilet is now a -1 memory when used as a bed, because colonists shouldn't enjoy sleeping in a toilet (disgusting colonists will continue to receive a +2 memory for sleeping toilets).
Doors now have their own "wreck" model when they're destroyed
Decreased cost to warp to Asteroid Ridge and The Atlantic Sector (we'll be removing the warp cost soon)
Increased starting player base by 4 and decreased starting floor size by 2. There is now a 6 floor gap between your starting boundary floor and your starting build limit. Also increased max base size from 36 to 38
Reduced sell price of tier 2 and above crafted items, so that it's more difficult to become god emperor of finance
Increased goo dropped from slimes from 1 to 4-7
Increased many crafting durations and reduced exp earned
Added a context option, "inspect biowaste". Awards 200 doctor exp. Only usable when under level 5 (use this to unlock head harvesting early-game)
Crafters will now offload their own crafting stations if there's nothing left to craft (farmers will offload crops now too).
Added a starting grill, for cooking Slinker Meat, Grilled Biomass, and Regular Beef Steak. The grill does not require power or fuel
Biomass is no longer automatically edible. It also deals 1 damage, so it's a good poison source early-game.
Colonists are now "stinky" if they hold biowaste for more than 60 seconds. This makes everyone else dislike them. Lasts for 2 days
Added a Makeshift Toilet. It generates germs when it has Biowaste inside. +1 memory. Standard Toilet is now a +2 memory. Makeshift toilet starts unlocked and Standard Toilet is now found in dungeons.
Added "Supply Station". It starts unlocked and has recipes for: Moonshine, Small Medkit, Purified Water, and Fuel.
Added a few messages to the "hud", such as "Colonist started fighting"
The "colonist started fighting message" now displays the target as well. "Dimple started fighting Space Zombie"
Slimes and worms now have a 10% chance to start with a disease.
Loved and hated jobs can now have their priority changed.
Trade pod now automatically accepts piped liquid items (biomass, fuel, clean water).
Increased starting colonist cap from 3 to 4
Fixes
Rules of Engagement (roe) changes are now remembered and apply to future enemy spawns. (if you mark a slime as "execute" then all slimes will forever be marked as "execute")
Boundary walls (that mark the player's base bounds) are now positioned correctly
Fixed one cause of colonists walking out to space after warping (this was a band-aid fix)
A temperature icon is now displayed if colonists are wearing helmets due to low temperature.
Contracts are now more likely to spawn at asteroids and stations
Improved how storage zones combine their allowed items when merging
Added notification when base is on lockdown
Dead bodies are now placed at the same location as the dead colonist. Previously they were being placed at 0,0,0. This was a huge waste of food
Drafted colonists will now always display "drafted" as their status
You can no longer paint "dungeon" walls
Viruses now have a minimum transmission of 1.0
Many external objects are now lit by the time-of-day lighting
What's Next
Autocrafting (conditional crafting)
Jetpacks for colonists (and enemies)
Control of starting conditions (supplies, stations, crew archetype)
