Game: Lacuna Passage
Driveable rovers are finally here!
There will be at least one rover guaranteed to spawn in every playthrough. There are two possible areas towards the center of the map where they may spawn randomly, but if you can't find any there you can be sure to find one parked at the third habitat. If you haven't played much before, the third habitat is also randomized, so happy hunting!
If you choose to continue a saved game keep in mind that you may run into errors, but if you have already discovered a rover previously, then you should be able to return to it and it will now be operable. I would still recommend starting a fresh save however.
Here are all the major additions that have made it into this update:
Change Log
- PRTs found in the environment are now driveable.
- Added Charged Backup Battery items that can be used to recharge your suit while out on an EVA, which after using will change to either a Discharged Backup Battery or an Expired Backup Battery in your inventory. A Discharged Backup Battery can be recharged at a crafting bench as long as there is enough reserve battery charge in the habitat, and an Expired Backup Battery will no longer hold a charge and is only useful for salvaging other materials from it. The chance to become an Expired Backup Battery is 1 in 20.
- Oxygen Filled Canisters now have a chance to become Broken Canisters after using them to refill your oxygen while on an EVA. The chance to become a Broken Canister is 1 in 20.
- New games will now start with one Oxygen Filled Canister and one Charged Backup Battery already in your player inventory.
- Refined and lowered the degradation rate of slots with no installed components.
- Added a “Withdraw All Items” option when exploring the contents of item containers.
- Added a “Move All” option when selecting a single stack of items to transfer between containers.
- The datapad will now slightly lower itself while walking so that you can more clearly see where you are going.
- You can now enable and disable the scanner while viewing the datapad.
Additional Changes in v0.62.1
- Fixed bug causing PRTs to float off the ground and become inaccessible.
- Possible fix for issue with drifting colliders on parked PRTs.
- New model for the hand holding the datapad.
- Fixed camera jitter when transitioning between states like equipping the datapad or running/walking.
- Fixed issue where the datapad was not changing to the lowered position if equipped while walking.
Additional Changes in v0.62.2
- Broken components can now be removed from exterior habitat modules and used to salvage for parts.
- Fixed bug causing radiation to not be applied while driving the PRT.
- Fixed bug causing a black screen while exiting the habitat.
- Fixed the navigation zoom level being reset when changing datapad screens.
- Fixed bug causing PRT batteries to charge above 100% with an RTG installed.
