This New Ocean - Update Log

Changes to 1.2 notes:
AI
- Made a more stable movement system, and there are now multiple bots on the map.

@sirbots I don’t understand; what are you supposed to do after this?
@the_true_odst You scan the planet, pull up your construction tablet (The Button with the hammer), hover over the thing you want to build, click it, then press E. You must have at least a Fair atmosphere status to build. The status updates over time, so you can click scan repetitively. There is a bug where it would reset when you exit the construction menu, which will be fixed with the arrival of 1.2

@sirbots When I click, nothing happens. I tried pressing E and it didn’t work either
Edit: I clicked all the construction boxes and pressed E and nothing happened
I'm back!!!

@the_true_odst You need to have at least a Fair atmosphere or better in order to build. Use the scan button and press it repetitively until so.
@sirbots I think I figured it out; I saw a home icon near my ship when I pressed the settlement. You need to have visuals for settlements

@the_true_odst I will look into it.

@the_true_odst Oh alright. I might increase the size of the settlements so it’s easier to see.
@sirbots 1.2 Releases Tomorrow
On top of a new movement system, a basic HP system for destroying bots will be added for testing purposes. Only the original Sprite cannot be destroyed, but the clones can.

Update 1.3 - Major Content Update
Release date (This is Subjected to change): Friday, March 28
What’s New:
UI
- Added more detailed menus for each building when clicked on in the Construction Tablet
AI
- The AI is now able to damage the player, albeit at very low increments for testing purposes.
- The AI will now be hidden if they are a certain enough distance away from the player, and will be revealed for the same reason.
*The AI will travel in groups (for lore purposes)
Buildings
- Made it so that making a building would no longer appear where the player’s ship is at. Now, it will appear where the player is on the planet.
- Slightly increased building size to make it easier to see.
- Begun making the code for settlement buildings to have weapons to attack enemies
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a bug where the AI would sometimes completely disregard the player and not enter it’s attack behavior for some time until another bot had begun to attack the player.
Dev notes coming soon.

Bug Fixes
There are no bug fixes.This update is to focus on adding content and testing content.
The AI has played a key part in the game’s development. This version would complete the first working alliteration of the AI.
Since there are different variations of ships the player can use, these ships should have different statistics that should stand out from others. Thus, the Battlecuriser and the Battleship will have their own statistics.
To provide an alternative to machine gun fights, guided missiles will added. During all of 2.0’s live updates, each will mark a new testing stage for these missiles. Expect the game to break or mess up during these live updates.
Introducing the first new building to the game: The Port. For those who want to make a large investment for their settlement, this would be for you! Provides a whopping 250 resources per 5 seconds. It’s also the first major resource building with a form of defense against enemies.
Along with some new planet designs and enemies, this will be one of the few massive updates the game will get.
The next update will be the first live test update of building defenses and guided missiles.
