Summer days are truly different. Oh how easily one can end up being carried away with all sorts of recreational activities and events. But I'm frequenting the coding chambers as well, especially on rainy days
-- and now, instead of organized update post, here's a completely random bunch of few small additions to expect in the next patch:
- added: skinned/cut/burnt carcass coloring
Skinned carcasses now appear in fleshy red color.
Cut or eaten carcasses appear dark reddish, and burnt carcasses blackish depending on the cut/burn degree.
- added: BUTCHER_CONFIRMATION configuration option
If the option is enabled a confirmation prompt appears if you try to butcher a carcass before skinning it.
This is to avoid accidentally cutting up the whole carcass and losing the skin.
To enable the option add the following line to urw_ini.txt setup file in your installation folder:
[BUTCHER_CONFIRMATION:YES]
- added: SPEND_DELAY_ADD configuration option
This option can be used to slow down all the time consuming actions if you find the game turns running too fast for your taste
during the time spending dialog. The given value is in milliseconds adding that much more delay for each game turn.
Good value to try slowin things down a bit would be 10 and nobody wants to go for more than 100.
To use eg. 10 millisecond custom delay add the following line to urw_ini.txt setup file in your installation folder:
[SPEND_DELAY_ADD:10]
- added: winter skin/fur descriptor
And as we know winter furs are more valuable, and it's been like that for a long time. Now there's finally
also an indication of wintertime furs and skins within the item description.
For example:
"Fine winter fox fur" or "Poor winter bear-skin"
- renewed & optimized: drawing of rain and snowfall
Previously rain and snowfall were drawn in putpixel fashion which was a speed issue on some systems.
Now rain and snowfall presented by tile graphics, with improved look and fast rendering.
- added: redrawn 8 directional tiles for watercrafts
Both punt and raft now appear bigger and prettier in completely redrawn fashion. Credits for these tiles goes to Paulo Spinola.
Watercraft tile direction changes based on the last actually rowed direction.
