Ane 1213 Posted June 7, 2017 CHANGELOG Stylish Sharing - 07/06/2017 HIGHLIGHTS Ylands Workshop You can access it through Ylands.net or via shortcut at Ylands.com With the exception of the Explore and Creative games (that are still in the game) all games are available to download in the Workshop now Once you log in, you can subscribe to games and compositions (mods will be added later). More info here. When you subscribe to a game, you'll find it in the list of available games the next time you launch Ylands When you subscribe to a composition, the next time you launch the game you'll find it under a new tab in the Editor You can rate and report both games and compositions At any time you can unsubscribe from games or compositions - they will disappear from your list (to get rid of them altogether you'll have to manually delete them) More games and compositions will be added later This is just the ALPHA version as a first iteration, feedback is appreciated to improve it! We encourage you to upload your own creations! AI has been reworked from scratch, fixing a lot of issues related to animals (new ones might arise) Multiplayer now supports up to 10 players New respawn system. Current behavior if you die in Explore: You click on "Respawn": you will spawn with the same character (you will know recipes, you will still own your horses) on the last yland you occupied (nearest one if you die in the sea) You click on "New character": you will spawn with a fresh new character on the first yland your first character spawned When reversing, all vessels have significantly lower friction with whatever is underneath them. If you happen to get stuck with your big ship by forward sailing into shallows, you should be able to leave by reversing out of there. This has the disadvantage that if you reverse into shallows (which is even easier due to lower hull friction while reversing), you will get stuck there for sure. Adjusted camera alignment logic for vehicles and mounts. By ALT you can switch between the 'default' and the 'free' modes. The default camera follows the direction of the controlled object The free camera is like the default one, only after moving it it doesn't realign automatically NEW FEATURES Character now emits a faint light in dark areas (visible only to the controlling player) /unstuck console command now has three options a - align with terrain (it does not take entities into account) b - pick a likely safe starting position on the beach of current yland (different for every unstuck call) r - pick a respawn position for this scenario Added new game Rating and Reporting functions in the escape menu The Basic panel of the Feedback Tracker has been removed, as it proved to be not as useful as the Advanced panel. You are still welcome to provide feedback using the advanced panel! Idle animations Smoother idle animations transitions Animation for turning mounted player when aiming Horse dies faster, in a more humane way Improved calling horses Animals can be waken up by sounds now Animals will now fear campfires Starving players and players affected by extreme temperatures will now lose health much slower Raft can now be moved very slowly even on land You can now stop autorun by pressing forward/backwards key when on foot Pickaxe, spade, shovel, annihilator and terraformer will not show any progress bar Planting seeds now takes significantly less time Drying rack removed from the cloth crafting chain, making cloth crafting easier Generating of veins was redone into new better system Added console commands for emotes (/dance, /facepalm, /threaten, /wave) When dragging equipment from character, other panels will automatically switch to inventory Inventory now opens as default upon pressing Tab, instead of Crafting When crafting/breaking with full inventory, items are dropped into scene Map now opens with a click, not holding the mouse button Building fire on a burnt out campfire turned to ash now consumes wood pieces [Editor] Game logic "ownership".

Sprout 38 Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) Not sure whether this is a "bug" or an 'improvement" -- flocks of seagulls now are in greater numbers and no longer fly off when player approaches, making it easy to smack them and collect feathers for arrows I like very much getting feathers easier I miss a little the gulls flying off when you approach (Probably, I would prefer being able to set rope snares for birds and hares, baiting with seeds) Actually I am hoping the "secret surprise update" is ability to capture/tame/domesticate/train/breed animals -- I want some trained guard boars I can take along hunting with me plus a little seagull "coop" or building nests for eggs & feathers Still wish there was a way to PAUSE singleplayer games as logging out / logging in is very time consuming when you need to be afk for a couple minutes to care for family Edited June 7, 2017 by Sprout Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John - NEXFER 111 Posted June 7, 2017 Great! I've been looking forward to this update, will set up a dedicated server and get back to you with results! Thank you guys for all the hard work, that's a big list of updates / fixes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aleš Ulm 1725 Posted June 7, 2017 Hi, don't worry! Seagulls will fly again in the next update - for now, they had to be grounded (at least some of them) as we're rewriting the AI (you may possibly notice some even other weird behavior as well, which is just temporary though - it should all go away in the upcoming update 0.5). One of the reasons for the AI being reworked from scratch is exactly what you ask for... cool companions with different behaviors (for that you will have to wait a bit more, but it will happen), and NPCs (those will come sooner). Thanks for both kind words and feedback you provide! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cinghri 0 Posted June 7, 2017 Does 'unstuck' also work for getting back to the surface again when you fall through the world (and very quickly die of cold, losing everything on you in that void forever)? If not, would it be possible to automatically put the character back to the surface as soon as this falling through the world happens (I've seen this problem solved this way in some other games, so hope so)? Looks like a lovely bunch of fixes and new things (I'm new to the game, quite sure I haven't discovered 90% of it yet, but like it allready and more potential waiting to surface by the looks of it).

Ane 1213 Posted June 9, 2017 Update: 08/06/2017 Version: 0.4.33959 It now takes some time for animals to fall back asleep if they wake up. Every animal now wakes up when a player is too close, meaning horses are now mountable during night without having to punch them in order to wake them up. Decreased AI CPU load a bit. Removed misleading error logs about too long messages from Server Monitor to reduce logs size. Null ref spamming caused by client trying to send server measures data fixed. Learning new recipes on dedicated server is fixed. Fixed wrong component setup on Alpha Tainted Wolf, resulting in the poor animal not knowing how to walk properly. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ane 1213 Posted June 9, 2017 Update: 09/06/2017 Version: 0.4.33994 Improved pathfinding for very short distances (this should improve animal attacks a bit). Animals stop attacking a player who has equipped the Cube while under attack. Fix: boats and rafts did not work on dedicated servers Default max players in Server Monitor is now 4 instead of 0. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ane 1213 Posted June 14, 2017 Update: 14/06/2017 Version: 0.4.34109 Fix: List of online games does not overflow in the bottom Fix: Search in list of online games will filter games by game name or user name Fix: Cutting down a tree could cause huge FPS drop List of online games: Added Lock icon for online games protected by password List of online games: Star and Avatar icon removed because they were not implemented yet Fix: All subscribed games could be deleted if internet connection error occurred Fix: Resolved some cases where client was unable to join multiplayer session Fix: Cancelling a multiplayer session join attempt cause sometimes game to freeze Fix: Session browser's 'Host Game' button now routes to correct scenario selection screen 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ane 1213 Posted June 21, 2017 Update: 21/06/2017 Version: 0.4.34289 [Editor] Fix: rotation of multiple objects did not work correctly Fix: Games from Workshop were repeatedly downloaded in some time zones Respawn position in Creative mode is the same as in Exploration mode Fixed issue whereby character would be unable to act upon respawn when playing on dedicated server Fixed issue whereby keybinding changes sometimes were not being saved upon confirmation Fixed issue whereby workstations would offer some invalid crafting options which would cause the game to corrupt Fixed issue whereby when loading a previous save, the game could freeze after the camera turned to sky Fixed issue whereby player character data could sometimes be lost when holding a specific item Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adrie I don't know if it is linked but anytime I try to light a torch onto another lighted appliance everyone on the server freezes. The only solution is to restart the server.
