Boxelware Team koonschi Posted September 18, 2018 Boxelware Team Share Posted September 18, 2018 Combat Update pt. II (Patch 0.18.3) Date: September 18th, 2018 Turret Building now live on the stable branch Great news! The combat update part II is now live on the default branch! With this update we're introducing the new Turret Building Mode, which allows you to build your own turret designs. Turret designs will be purely aesthetic, for balancing & time reasons. You can now use turret bases to build a turret design for your ship. Those turret designs can be saved & shared on the Steam Workshop just like normal ship designs. Coaxial Weapons Coaxial weapons now found their way into Avorion! Weapons that require 5 or more slots will now be considered coaxial weaponry. Those only look in a single direction and cannot turn. They also deal 3 times the damage of their 5-Slot equivalent non-coaxial turret counterpart. Collision Damage Rework Collision damage got a revamp in this update: Instead of applying all inflicted damage to blocks AND main HP, collision damage now spreads through the ship, and only damages main HP as much as it would damage blocks. So when you just slightly graze an asteroid you're ship won't blow up immediately any more. Different kinds of blocks also absorb a portion of their HP in collision damage, for example armor. A block with 100 hp will negate 75 hp of collision damage, so armor will be perfect against collision damage. Bugfixes and Polishing We also fixed tons and tons of bugs & crashes in this update. Thanks to everybody who reported issues! There were also several adjustments to balancing and some polishing, which you can all find in the patchnotes of the previous releases: https://steamcommunity.com/games/445220/announcements/detail/2903022560804049921 https://steamcommunity.com/games/445220/announcements/detail/1719697765426291679 https://steamcommunity.com/games/445220/announcements/detail/1669031722144373557 https://steamcommunity.com/games/445220/announcements/detail/1687044219320034671 Have Fun!
