0.0.30.0

0.0.30.0 was released on the 16th of April 2019 and was succeeded by 0.0.30.1.

Changes

0.0.30.0 provided the following changes:

• A Tutorial Tale
  • There are now tutorial servers for new players to go through before starting the main game!
  • These appear as 'A Tutorial Tale' servers on the server board.
  • Tutorial tasks must be completed to see the main game servers in the main menu.
  • Tutorial tasks carry between servers, so if you're interrupted for some reason, you can resume later or on another server.
  • Players can return to the tutorial server if they wish.
  • PvP is outright disabled on tutorial servers.
  • You don't need to customize your character for it, and nothing saves in the tutorial server.

• SteamVR Update
  • SteamVR Input bindings support, you can now properly setup input mapping using SteamVR's binding UI.
  • Knuckles Support (for those lucky people out there)
  • Free Gesture mode for Knuckles and Oculus Touch controllers, this setting disables the traditional gesture input in favor of active gesturing.
  • More subtle haptics.

• Wyrm Balances
  • Reduced max spawn of Wyrms.
  • Fixed issue where Wyrms didn't rotate to face their targets.
  • Improvements to Wyrm spit collision detection.
  • Wyrms slightly less likely to spit in your face when you go for a weaponized hug.
  • Reduced spit rate of Wyrms.
  • Reduced damage and crippling damage done from Wyrm spit.
  • Wyrms no longer spawn immediately in the same spot as a recently felled Wyrm.
  • Smoother spitting transition animation for Wyrms. Should be easier to predict when they pull back to spit at you.

• PVP Balancing
  • We're reducing the amount of damage players deal to each other.
  • This is to have less 1 hit kill scenarios, and to let you react to combat better.
  • You deal more damage to players on the PvP server, than you do on the co-op servers with these new settings.
  • This gives a bit more nuance to dueling, but may still change in the future, as lower tier weapons and rusty arrows are now very ineffective against players.

• Fixed issue where one of the metal handles allowed for more weapon parts than normal.
  • (You could have made a double greatsword, with double short sword types hiding beneath them, with crystals shards inside them. But not anymore, KAKAKA.)
  • This may cause some irregularities if your weapon was like this, or nothing at all.
• Fixed XP gain inconsistencies.
• Improved reliability of Post Boxes, ATMs and Trade Decks.
  • There were some issues with the underlying system with them, things should be better, but keep an eye out on this one.
• Fixed instances where one strike with multiple blades would instantly proc power strike abilities.
  • We know this is pretty cool, but we'll see if we can do something a bit more controlled as a future ability?
• Tweaked cripple values of weapons. Hammers now deal high cripple damage, along with shotel blades and scythes, as well as the forked arrows in camps.
  • Cripple value only really applies for PVP at the moment. This will let you diversify your build if you need to keep a target in place.
• Fixed issue where spriggull meat didn't give the stat boost for their assorted stew when stewed.
• Nerfed hunger return from blueberries, apples, and basic mushrooms.
• EDIT:
  • Added setting to "Run first, and toggle to walk" in the first settings tab. (Locomotion settings, on the top right.)
  • Added setting to "Disable haptics when toggle-holding items." This can help save battery.
