v0.6.1.3
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------

- Fixed hulls not being rendered in the submarine editor.


- Crouching is synced between the server and the clients.
- Plasma cutters and welding tools ignore platforms and stairs - placing a platform
on a wall doesn't
prevent welding/cutting the wall anymore.
- Using the SetClientCharacter console command forces the client's line of sight
effect back on.
- Fixed null reference exceptions when syncing docking ports that haven't been
docked to anything.
- Fixed invisible diving suits in some of the respawn shuttles (specifically ones
where the suits spawn
directly on the floor).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------
v0.6.1.2
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------

- Dedicated servers can use autorestart.


- Fixed dedicated servers ignoring armor.

wires.
- Tab doesn't autoselect the chatbox when the debug console is open.
- Fixed missing kick/ban buttons in the crew menu.
- Fixed a bug that caused ID mismatches in the hulls between docking ports. This
caused, for example,
mysterious client-side fires around docking ports and "unknown object header"
errors.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------
v0.6.1.1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------

- Fixed diving suits and masks not providing enough oxygen when in a low-oxygen
room or outside the submarine.

----------------------
Multiplayer:
- Dedicated server application.

- Clients now get back control of their character if the server revives them
using the debug commands.
- Added a console command for changing the character a client is controlling.

- Logging which items are contained inside items characters use on themselves
(e.g. which meds are
inside a medical syringe).
- Logging which type of projectile was launched from a railgun and which
items were contained inside it.
- More descriptive wiring logging: the logs don't list all the wires in a
connection panel but only
the changes players do to the wiring.

Monsters:
- Some creatures can hunt for smaller creatures (including humans) and eat
them.
- Tweaked enemy AI to make their attacks less likely to miss.

- Enemies don't always move at a fixed speed, now they move faster when
attacking or fleeing.
- Shooting watchers with a ranged weapon makes them attack.
- Split tiger thresher's and charybdis' bodies into more parts to make them a
bit more agile.
- Option to make monster events spawn more monsters when previous ones are
killed.
- The camera zooms further out when controlling a large non-humanoid
character.

Misc:
- Improved item interaction logic: highlighting items is more precise, with
items directly under
the cursor taking priority.
- Characters can be dismembered by creatures and explosions.
- New blood particles.
- Blood, explosion and fire decals.
- Added an artifact that attracts creatures.
- Detached buttons and electrical components can be picked up just like any

is on (instead of
waiting for all players to die)
- Fixed nuclear shells and depth charges exploding immediately when launched.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------

- Readded spam filter.


- Servers log the automatic temperature control setting of nuclear reactors.
- If a client fails to start a round (due to a missing sub file or an error, for
example), their character
is automatically killed. This prevents situations where a team can't win a combat
mission due to a
disabled, invisible character in the opposing team.

Support for multiple submarines (no full-fledged submarine vs submarine battles


yet, but they're coming
in future updates!):
- Submarine files can be "merged", i.e. submarines can consist of multiple
separate parts which can
be docked into each other
- the multiplayer mode has a "respawn shuttle" which transports respawned
players from the entrance
to the main submarine
- parts of the submarine and characters inside them can be left behind in the
single player mode
(and later salvaged if you wish to do so)

Multiplayer:
- fixed a bunch of bugs that caused entity IDs not to match between the
clients and the server (which
caused severe syncing issues)
- fixed monster inventory syncing (i.e. husk inventory syncing)
- fixed server description box not being synced with clients
- search bar for server logs
- more server options
- fixed the occasional "queue empty" error messages when attempting to send
submarine files to players

the client

Items:
- items can be equipped/unequipped by double clicking
- longer railgun view distance

it's much easier to
select specific items in cramped subs

carry any power after
a junction box has been broken and repaired
- option to choose the output of a signal check component when the signal
doesn't match

- cameras: can be connected to a railgun controller (or any other selectable
controller) to remotely
view rooms or areas around the sub

Submarines:
- the mass of a submarine depends on its size - larger submarines require
more force to move around
(custom subs may need some modifications to get the top speeds of the
smaller/larger subs back to a
steerable level)
- changes to depth damage logic: structures with more health need more
pressure before they start taking
damage (i.e. submarines with thicker walls and no windows can go deeper)

Misc:
- stunned characters can't move items in their inventory
- characters can run while grabbing/dragging someone
- fixed a bug that made it impossible to spawn characters through the console
in the Linux version

waypoints in custom subs)
don't cause the debug console to pop up

starting a round, and if not,
give them some time to start downloading it

- item sprites are visible in fabricator menus


- some new wall sprites
- fixed small walls being impossible to fix after they've broken
- ruin walls look slightly different from normal walls on sonar
- cargo is placed at the cargo spawnpoint instead of a random position within the
hull it's inside
- fixed light emitted by flares not disappearing after the flare burns out
- flares won't stop burning if picked up and placed in the inventory
