Patch Notes
Major Changes
New Destructible Houses
We’ve replaced all of our old houses with the new ones that Leif created for us! Not only do they look better (both intact and destroyed), but these houses have been intentionally dressed to fill the homes with more life, variety, and of course, items.
Defend Missions
We’ve added a new event that allows the player to attempt to defend a town from incoming attackers! You can see this mission in action in the vlog video above.
Bugs Fixes and Minor Enhancements
- The expanding shaping triangle now has an improved material
- The Fictorum will start with 10 essence in a new game (this amount will vary in the future across the different starting titles)
- The campfire sound effect on the main menu will no longer be audible
- Rock Wall will now function properly
- The Nexus pillar is now more visible and will change to red when the player is on the last location of a chapter
- Inquisition reinforcements will spawn with less lag
- The Corrupted Lich will now fire a new spell
- Fixed a rare bug with the inventory tooltip which would incorrectly show the currently hovered rune
- Chilling Aura will no longer flicker
- Candlelight will not be as aggressively culled, caused visual flickering
- Loot containers (bookshelves, night stands, etc.) will now immediately grant loot upon interacting
- Enemies in ragdoll will now properly deal damage to destructibles and enemies upon collision
