The Spatials: Galactology 3.13.4.2325 - игра финальной версии

After nearly two years we are moving Galactology out of Early Access! The battle against bugs has been won and the frameworks for a complex and fun sim have been built and polished, along with a ton of new content and balancing. Here's an incomplete listing of all the additions:

• Colony stations built on planets
• Building system based on rooms with separate flooring and walls
• New room styles
• Combine any floor tiles together with a range of colors
• New objects to furnish the station, both decorative and functional
• New space flight system based on wormholes
• Ship construction
• Civilizations also have ships and use them to visit you
• New civilizations (Chuchus, Cucurbians and Meductians)
• Per-factory order queues
• Global mode for factory production based on stock levels
• Per-job per-officer job priorities
• Class system with task-based learning and progression and a new set of skills
• Private property and rooms for your officers – and demands related to class
• Equippable items for your officers, make them more powerful with better loot
• Security system with item progression, shields turrets and security doors
• Events and disasters, spies, monsters, and VIPs can come visit your station
• Disease system with healthcare and hospitals
• Hotel system
• Visitor archetypes with different needs and expectations
• Redesigned research system and UI
• Redesigned staff screen
• Door filters
• Room-level aesthetic score and noise levels, which can affect vital tasks
• Large optimizations and performance enhancements
• Support for languages with custom fonts
• Built-in support for Chinese, Korean, German, French, Spanish, Turkish and Russian

This is just one more milestone in the development of our game and we have quite a bit of roadmap to get through this year. The plan now is to keep development versions in a Steam beta branch for those who want to test them. We will post more details when the first public beta builds of 3.13 are ready.

To our devoted translators, all the players who gave us feedback and suggestions during Early Access, and to those who bought the game and supported us: THANK YOU!

Technical development notes
- remove planet storage limit
- display current target for selected entity, like it is done for walk target
add actual target icon
- remove per-squad-member aggressor action in the bar
- add "set forced target" action
- fix: manual target is lost even while alive
- fix: manual target for healing is a bad idea, the AI is much better, ignore it
- add right click action for setting target too
- restore walk button on toolbar
- remove auto/manual control from aggressor panel
- change the border in the squad buttons to line or corners, to reflect its selection status
- idea: while 2 or more squad members are selected do not display normal right panel
- put active item icon and cooldown display on top of squad selector button
display only while in cooldown
- when in combat mode
officers in squad always display hp bar
display small swords icon next to hp bar
- to any fear-capable entity, add the ability to stop walking when an enemy is sighted
with prio between combat mode busy and aggressor SM busy
just a one-time stop action, not a busy state
this makes the AI less suicidal, and healers don't go so much into a melee
- add some scrolling icons when interrupted due to enemies or when starting combat
- when setting a target, if the entity is not compatible (healer -> enemy), do a nearby walk
with the previous system it will stop because of enemy sighting, but still accompany their fighter friends
- fix: don't waste teleporter cooldown when the target is nonwalkable
- fix: restore melee-simple
- fix: if a factory breaks while an item stack is busy with it, the stack remains busy
patch the existing missing busy catcher to also use the item busy ID
if it's the job sm ID, and the subj busy ID is NOT job SM ID, then remove busy
make the job sm set the proper IDs on busy stacks
- fix: repair can pick an unwalkable position for work area
- replace use of dots as checkmarks with a proper checkmark
in the job matrix
in the filter for storage area
- dont display item categories in storage area filter
- factory recipe selector should be a picker list
in manual order: combo list
in filter for global production: checklist
in ship recipe selector
- introduce high prio busy walk for manual walk orders
higher than flee
- display item list for officers in crew picker for ships
- add new resources
- add new objects images
- fix: stale corpses being eternally carried by officers
use busy aspect checking for the parent
- hospitality tech tree
buildings
research tiers
decors
- change "bartender" to "hospitality"
- put all room unlocks in facilities tree, for now
- fix: production tutorial is broken
- fix: asteroids still are being hardcoded to one gray shade for home
- make sure enemies are using the earlier aggressor target semantics
now they are pursuing targets to the other end of the map
- cancel forced targets on walk and teleports
- add object use purchasing
hygiene: use soap price, already there
fun: use item price
and a fixed price for dance floor
- add fixed object vital factors
fun: dancefloor is hardcoded, for now
sleep: vital-sleep-step for object model, set in component in finalize-bed, sm takes it
- normalize job xp based on duration
30s is 1 xp, with a min of 1xp
- custom mechanic: hotel
entities have can have sleep vital, and refuse to use some beds but not others
entities can get the need to make a booking at an hotel reception
an hotel reception sells bookings, needs to be staffed first, like the bar
after buying a booking, the entity is entitled to use beds of the right category
- fix: xp scaling is wrong, too high
- fix: anchor jobs for tending desks should wait for ReadyComponent on parent
- refactor "bartender" job logic and anchor entity to be used by other systems
test with pre-v3.5 hospital bed logic first
support
continuous standing (bar, reception)
spot standing (doctor jobs)
custom job data (duration, resources, comp, etc)
custom posing
custom parent aspects for job validation
generic presence component
- object building should also display needed empty tiles around an object, and complain when they are not
default tile by peeking into the object settings
anchor: prop for other objecs
fix: restore immediate floodfill area draw
- full disease system
different disease have different effects on entities
vomiting
interruption: forced sleep
interruption: dizzy
gigantism
shrinkage
color change
mutant reskin
slowpox
each disease has a checklist of treatments to be performed, in order
generic vital fullfill system that can delegate to right SM and their data, based on the disease checklist
generic registry for medical objects
once the checklist is at the end, the entity is cured
- fix: correct selection reticle for scaled entities
- inspector for disease checklist
- introduce doctor desk (placeholder gfx)
desk job for officers
must have officer present
- re-introduce hospital bed for resting and treatment
using the new tender system
tender consumes pills
- fix doctor desk anchors
- fix hospital bed anchors
- add tender job bias support
- introduce xray
pose patient as idle
once a patient is on one side, a standing job opens for officers
- introduce analyzer
same as xray
- introduce surgery pod
same as patient bed, but requires organs for doctor job
- introduce regenerator pod
same as a shower, but requires bionanites stock

broken system stops handling this

introduce maintenance-factor so objects can receive repairs before they break

repair factor is just the max between maintenance and broken

make sure to spawn proxy only on walkable tiles

auto destroy proxy if its ground becomes unwalkable

repair system will try to re-spawn it

fix: proper facing
