OpenShores 1.0.6 Patchnotes

Server

  • Login queue. I've been working on a system to allow for a login queue. This is to prevent the worst case scenario where too many players might bring the server to its knees.

Buildings and cities

  • Drilling rigs Tough bastards, they seem to be working now.
  • Mass Media Mainly a test to see how I can influence buildings. Now works as a morale building. Expect this to be temporary.
  • Arenas, casinos, parks and zoos Similarly, a test to see how I can affect buildings in a city, will now give up to +2 morale for having more than required. Expect this to be temporary.
  • Street Light You can build street lights again.

Old designer

  • Ladders They would sometimes not work in old designer ships, should now be fixed.

Performance and visuals

  • Much faster terrain in big cities Terrain near cities with lots of roads and landscaping is built about 10x faster.

Star map

  • The star map XML export is back.
