Icarus 1.2.36.1071213 Patch Notes – February 3, 2023

Fixed

• MAELSTROM: Added respawning to explosive loot container
• Improve shadow settings validation for FLOD. Fix FT/BP assets to make sure their shadow settings match (disable shadows in AC assets as it is too harsh). Unified settings on lots of FTs back to default
• AVALANCHE: Increased size of travel location for preceeding through pass step. Updated highlight text for placement location of laser
• FORSAKEN: Fixed Damaged Gyroscope tagging to ensure this goes into the ship’s gyroscope slot. Removed additional inventory slots, preventing items from being placed in inaccessible slots
• First pass at optimising weather audio system. Create a weather audio subsystem to manage weather controller events centrally and distribute updates to weather audio components much more efficiently
• Fix Flashlight and Biofuel Lamp being extinguished when the player is submerged
• RESURGENCE: Updated last quest step to require returning to the dropship, rather than the original ship location. Updated other quests steps capitilization
• Fix several issues which were causing tree fall sounds to behave incorrectly for clients on dedicated servers, and fix cypress tree landing sounds sometimes not playing the correct surface for clients
• Update voxel final hit audio behaviour to work with voxel re-initialisation changes
• Added a few more cases for the shield to delete itself on the off chance that the shield is not being deleted
• Tweaked storm prediciton timings to reduce frequency of back to back storms.
• Added additional initial storm steps and applied to specific missions
• Doubled the likelyhood of cosmetic storms appearing. This is mainly for Tier 0 / easy difficulties to have a significantly increased likelihood of cosmetic storms
• Fixed multiple async load warnings
• Fixed loading of certain assets during gameplay that could cause hitches
• Optimised deployable objects/benches. Deployables now have a custom ticking system that groups all of the deployables execution together to reduce CPU overhead
• Optimised atmosphere controller to rely more on cached data
• Optimised building pieces to cache several commonly accessed data table values
• Building pieces no longer tick. Any ticking logic that they previously had, such as updating stability, are now controlled by their owning grid and are processed across multiple frames. When loading prospects with large amounts of building pieces these operations would previously sync up and cause noticeable hitches multiple times per second
• Nativised several building grid background tasks which are now managed by an owning system that evenly spreads these tasks between all building grids. This evens out performance with large numbers of different building grids present in the world
• Removed tick from almost all trait components that were present on almost every item in the game
• Optimised spline system used by electrical/water pipe systems
• Weather events now use cached building data, reducing hitches when calculating which building pieces to damage in storms
• Multiple other small optimisations
• Swapped Flash Storm and Storm weather event tiers.
• Reduced Tier4 storm building damage during chaos events (still damages the same types of buildings, but for less damage)
• Range check and curve check when using SetTimeScale cheat (internal dev only/editor only)
• Updated Weather Generation based on adjusted design and feedback, reduced frequency of weather events back to a more reasonable amount
• Weather is now picked again via a weighted list
• Weather now generates one event per weather block
• Weather Forecast has been extended to 3 days
• Weather Blocks are now doubled in length
• Removed unused functions and variables after WeatherForecasting refactor and added more logging
• Fixed new modifiers moving across the screen, blocking reticule at 6 modifiers
• Fixed crash caused by components being removed from Deployables before they have unregistered with the deployable manager
• Tweaked storm frequency, adding in longer periods of quiet and more varied durations on weather forecasts
• Fixed potential issue with Error 65 reconnection and added additional logging around fail states
• Reduced default logging level of LogModifierState to reduce spam
• Reduced the severity of many early game missions in Olympus and increased some midgame missions that were using the easiest forecast.
• Tweaked ABYSS storm timings to help provide windows of opportunity
• ModifierStateContainers within MountInterface and Player Inventory now have a subtle pulsing animation when modifiers are added, instead of playing the normal animated transition
• Move to system that loads/saves all weather events at the forecast block level
• Weather forecast will reset for existing saves
• Fixed bug where mission-specific out-of-bounds mask would override map-based out-of-bounds mask; This would cause issues where player dropships could land out of playable areas on certain Olympus missions
• Fixed several crash bugs caused by optimisations to buildings and deployables
• Added an extra null check when displaying debug data about loading a bad data table row as this could cause a crash if it was in a really bad state
• Final tidy up for Weatherforecasting
• Fixing Extractors and Drills not ticking and extracting resources
• Fix an issue where the weather forecast would reset the pattern index if the game was saved+loaded at the exact start time of a weather block
• Fixing Crop Plot Glasshouse buffs being multiplied everytime they are checked
• Fixing Crop plot glasshouse percentage increase not being presented on clients correctly
• Reduced tier of the initial rough landing forecast.
• Reduced duration of the initial middle ground and mini-ramp forecasts, this will result in slightly quicker storms for those prospects
• Temporarily removed building stability queue optimisation as it causes stability to behave erratically

Icarus Patch Notes – January 13, 2023

New Mission – REMNANT: Extraction

Added a new mission, REMNANT: Extraction. Similar to the introductory missions DEEP VEIN and PAYDAY, REMNANT guides players to place a number of radars in various locations to find, extract and launch exotics into orbit.

REMNANT takes place on Styx however, which has a much higher saturation of exotic deposits on the map, so the mission has a wide variety of outcomes. Lines from the radars will point players to different exotic deposits with varying distances, and allow them to learn the mechanics in a more dynamic environment with more paths to choose from.

Exotic Extraction Balance

Made changes to exotic extract, unifying the drill slot count across biomes and increasing relative mining speed to provide a balance.

All three biomes (forest, arctic and desert) will now have two extractors, reducing forest from three to two. To balance out the reduction, each extractor will extract exotics 50% faster, which provides a better situation for single player session where players may not want to have to craft multiple extractors.

Effectively, this just reduces the forest biome to only having two extractors, to be in line with the arctic and desert biomes, but these 2 extractors will be as effective as the previous 3 allowed in the forest biome.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where if a client holds a shield and a one-handed weapon the UI doesn’t show the shield highlighted
• Fixed an issue where Dropships & Dynamic missions can trigger outside of the playable area by implementing a new ‘Bounds Mask’
• Before writing to Character/Profile/Prospect data, temporary backups of original files are created to as safeguards in case of an unexpected shutdown or game crash during the saving process. Save file restore occurs on the initial application load

This means that all armors will now take damage even if they dont have a specific resistance for that type (Something that resists only fire will be damaged by anything).

Icarus Patch Notes – October 14, 2022

New Content

• Added framework for Husbandry talent tree. – Renamed Construction talent group to Habitation
• Added base class for Spike Traps and cleaned up logic for Hedgehogs, basic Wood Hedgehog will now damage players, hedgehogs deal 50% damage to players
• Added ranks to Husbandry tree talents. – Renamed Husbandry tree talents from placeholder names to more accurate names
• Adding new Stats for Husbandry Talents
• Added stats to Husbandry talent points
• Updating Husbandy talents to include new stats
• Setting up modifiers for new taming aura’s
• Setting up crafting cost reductions for saddles and taming equipment
• Adding new TamedCreatureModifiers Table for Determining the stat transfer between player and tamed creature / juvenile
• Setting up Virtual stats for new husbandry stats
• Hooking up Player States related to Riding Creatures (Oxygen, Food, Water Consumptions and Exposure Resistance)
• Adding new Stats for Player Husbandry Talent Tree
• Adding Missing Virtual Stats for Older Taming stats so we can work with the new system
• Updated stats on Husbandry talents to fix build validation error.
• Increased Buffalo Mount Health Regeneration
• Players will now be kicked out of the mount inventory screen if player/mount distance becomes too large. Mounts now use generic ragdoll behaviour shared with other NPCs
• Linked new stats to Husbandry talents.
• Updated Husbandry talent and related stat descriptions
• Creatures mounted by local player play audio when taking fall damage
• Players are now prompted with a dialog to set name when first claiming a tamed mount. Shifted ‘open mount inventory’ functionality into mount class instead of inside actionable
• Added first pass of Husbandry talent tree background
• Setup specific XP events for Moa, Juvenile Moa and Juvenile Buffalo.
• Enabled Juveniles to be counted towards baby animal kills and their respective parent creature type kills
• Adding Husbandry talent tree background asset
• Mounts and Juveniles will now have any player-owner driven stats applied to them when claimed, or when led by a new player in the case of juveniles. In the case of session reload, mounts and juveniles will wait for their most recent owning player to reconnect before reapplying relevant stats. Implemented following stats for use with husbandry talent tree: JuvenileFriendlyToPredators, TameSleepRequirement, IsJuvenile, IsMounted
• Tamed mount food/water is no longer reduced when their current level tile is unloaded
• Juvenile taming tooltip now switches temp requirement icon based on current environmental temperature. Fixed taming temperature virtual stat using the wrong base stats
• Added ability to feed and give water to mounts from currently equipped hotbar item. Nutritional value of food is now counted when mounts/juveniles go to eat, meaning it will take more than one item to completely satisfy hunger

Fixed

• Fix closed doors and windows sounding open after respawn. There is a potential issue with initialisation order, so try to set the open FMOD parameter again if it fails the first time on BeginPlay
• Optimization pass on Buildables textures. Consistency pass on texture settings and reducing 4k textures to save memory
• Optimized some assets with high triangle counts to improve performance
• Remove sequence reference from Cave diorama causing unnecessary asset loads, wasting memory
• Numerous texture optimizations and settings consistency pass to save memory
• Fix LOD settings on Dead Prospetor meshes (LOD3 was 5k triangles), should have 6 LODs with the final being <1k
• Delete unused Tree meshes which have bad LODs and no materials
• Optimized and/or deleted unused assets in VFX/TRE folder to improve performance
• Add LODs to assets missing them or needing settings improved. Delete unused assets
• Fixed inaccurate collision on Scorpion Hedgehog mesh causing hits to fail often
• Add new option to Graphics Menu (Limit Poolsize To VRAM) which may help alleviate blurry textures on GPUs with not enough memory. Note: this is enabled by default and should only be disabled if you are having texture issues. Disabling it may cause issues/crashes
• Remove some of the many old variations of WIP HAB levels to allow easier cleanup of old otherwise unused assets. Deep chained asset references result in expensive assets being shipped unnecessarily, causing larger builds, bigger load times and more memory consumption
• Removed Prospect007 entry from Terrains DT to fix validation error
• Remove old levels which cause a ton of unnecessary references and make cleanup of old assets impossible
• Prevent graphics settings from being applied before the graphics subsystem is ready, reset the resolution scale when entering/exiting DLSS/FSR, ensure r.ScreenPercentage CVar calls are made with ECVF_SetByScalability priority so that the LegacyScreenPercentageDriver can make changes, this means that resolution scaling works correctly (when DLSS/FSR are switched off) and multiple combinations of settings are applied
• Move marker for this quest to a new serialization system (‘MapSearchArea’ vs ‘LocationSearchArea’), reload the mission several times to ensure the marker now always shows up, this means that the map marker should always appear after reload on the station to station mission
• Accolade: Ravenous only tracks food consumed when consuming stack, wired PlayerTracker to consume food (of stack size 1) on right click ‘consume’, different code path from right click ‘consume stack’, this means players are awarded progress towards consumption accolades when comsuming single food items as well as stacks of food items
• STRANGE HARVEST: Fixed typo in quest description
• HOMESTEAD: Updated Rustic Statue objective to Rustic Icarus Statue, to better guide players to the correct statue to craft
• Added Sandworm boss to all Olympus Exploration missions (min 1, max 4)
• Styx has different Biomes from Olympus, so map accolades to atmospheres rather than biomes, this means that players correctly attain progress towards Biome accolades on Styx (Scorched Traveller, Forzen Traveller et al.)
• Voyager Mission – Fixed Den item replenishment
• Strange Harvest: Fixed respawn on boss to ensure respawning on prospect reload
• Strange Harvest: Fixes issue preventing objective particles to appear
• Fixed Holdfast Outpost getting stuck on preparing geometry when crossing into the B4 tile by adding the missing level bounds actors which guarantee the correct levels are loaded
• Fixed weather timeline UI not updating correctly when mounted
• Fixed bug where talent tree view could break when trying to assign talent points while mounted
• Fixed bug where mounts and juveniles still wouldn’t attempt to move to beds or water troughs if they were off navmesh
• Juvenile taming tooltip now switches temp requirement icon based on current environmental temperature. Fixed taming temperature virtual stat using the wrong base stats
• Fixed bug where talent tree view could break when trying to assign talent points while mounted
• Hand-feeding a mount will now apply a moderate amount of health regen, with the duration changing based on food’s nutrition. Mounts can now be affected by warm and cozy buff
• Adding in all base AI setup for the Rock Dog, including all anim montages and placeholder stat values, still needs lava state hookup and lava based attacks to be completed
• Fixed Nurturing Presence aura not affecting juvenile taming speed. Fixed NPCs not being able to receive aura modifiers
• Fixing inherited collision on the wood gate that was stopping arrows, it is a door base BP which has the collision there to stop multiple doors being placed on top of eachother
• Fixed bug where cave modifier / visual effects wouldn’t apply correctly when entering a cave while mounted
• Fixed bug where Juveniles/Mounts would stop short of their bed/trough when interacting with it. Juveniles and Mounts should hang back a little more when following player owner. Fixed bug where taming speed stat wasn’t affecting the overall tame duration as expected; reworked the internal stats driving taming speed / duration
• Extended the level streaming distance on Holdfast Outpost to solve the preparing geometry screen appearing when crossing into the B4 tile
• Increased Buffalo mount carry weight limit to 300kg, Pack Harness adds an additional 300kg carry weight capacity
• Fixed juveniles not being ignored by hostile creatures when using the ‘One With Nature’ talent
• Implement audio cues when player manually feeds or waters mounts. Audio refs still to be added
• Adding sounds and events for mounts being manually fed / watered
• Fixed bug where player would consume held food item when hand-feeding mounts. Mounts and Juveniles will now reset the spoil timer on stacks of food left over after feeding from troughs
• Fixed bug where player wouldn’t have their internal ‘IsMounted’ stat removed when dismounting from saddle
• Strange Harvest: Significantly increased tether distance on boss to prevent unintentional resetting
• Fixed bug where the ‘Feed’/’Give Water’ tooltip would show when looking at a mount with an invalid held item
• Adding feeding mount sounds to BP and correcting the buffalo mouth socket in data table
• Mounts and Juveniles will now receive a health regeneration boost after eating from food troughs (similar to hand feeding)
• Fixed typo in Enzyme Geyser description, havest to harvest
• Added footstep particles to mounts
• Improved modifier stacking behaviour, longest modifier durations will now always take priority. TamingSpeed aura modifier is no longer visible to players
• Fixed bug where mounts would start drowning if stood in water for too long
