Generation Zero update 1.19 patch notes
Spring has started and for us that means a tiny bit of housecleaning. No major update this month, instead we have some bug fixes and some under-the-hood work that we’ve done. We’re working on bigger things at the moment and need to focus our efforts there in the near future. What this boils down to is that we haven’t yet been able to address some of the bigger points of feedback from March – but we’re working on it!
TWEAKS
Your feedback on the Anniversary update has been heard and we’ve made some quick changes that will help smooth out player understanding of the effects of the inventory change and the addition of Crafting. While these are small in scale, they will help with clarity.
- Changed the “bar” on the Profile screen to show the stat effects as a percentage to match the crafting menu
- Added a “Fast Travel Disabled” message when unable to move due to being over-encumbered
- Added quality levels to crafted items in the Profile screen to match how other items display quality level
- When over-encumbered you will only be able to walk, no longer will you be able to jog at certain thresholds; ultimately if you carry far too much weight you will be unable to move
- Increased the base carrying weight from 48 to 64
When over-encumbered, the “unable to sprint” message will now be shown all the time until freeing up weightIn this update we’ve also taken our first steps to updating the machine behavior, primarily in combat. Much of this is beneath the surface and won’t be immediately noticeable, but as you go up against the machines more you may notice a few changes to how they approach combat – specifically a new behavior for the Harvester that may surprise you!
Just like with any of our other updates, please give your feedback to this update as well as anything else in your play experience. As mentioned in our last Letter from the Devs, we’re starting to really get into the feedback from the recent Player Survey and we’ll be taking all of that into consideration as we move forward. Thank you all and take care out there!
