Note: This patch does not contain all of the intended features, which will be added iteratively to the notes as they become available. Additionally, some features may be implemented in a partial state and as such are not ready for testing. When those features reach a playable state they will be detailed on the notes and added to the “Testing Focus”. Please issue council all issues related to those in testing focus and in general gameplay.

Current cloud tech is still in active development and not yet final. There’s ongoing work on SDF occlusion which should help alleviate the graphical artifacting (visual dots in the clouds). Additionally, we are working towards having local VFX for the clouds (similar to the gas clouds around rest stops) which will make a big difference in overall quality.

Testing Focus

This build we are hyper-focusing on Crusader/Orison and the Gas Cloud Tech. Many other features are partially in but we will let you know when we have them ready for feedback!
Included in that is all ships and ship functionality. We know those new features are visible and in the game, but they are not complete and/or fully tuned, and as such their current functionality could not be the intended functionality.

  • Crusader
  • Orison Landing Zone
  • Limited ships for test
  • Aurora MR
  • Mustang Alpha
  • Gladius
  • 300i
  • Vanguard Warden

In this build we have made Orison the default spawn location as well as temporarily enabled the ability to always select a new spawn when joining the PU.

Known Issues

  • Ship capacitors and tuning are in an incomplete state for this build so at this time we are not collecting feedback on all things related to ship flight and combat
  • A small amount players may experience very fast flashing lights on Crusader in Orison. (This appears to happen on Nvidia 10 series cards at least) If you experience this, please put this CVAR into your console (will not work in cfg file) and it should help with the issue by turning off some effects on Crusader.
  • r_CloudInjectionInScatteringQueries 0
  • Gas Clouds on Crusader appear to have moving graphical artifacts that appear as dots. Current clouds are still in development and not final. See note at the top of patch notes.

New Features

Locations

  • Comprised of a latticework of platforms suspended in mid-atmosphere on the gas giant Crusader, Orison is considered one of the most picturesque locations in Stanton.

  • Adding in the interior of the New Babbage Hospital. This first pass will add in the location lobby and additional remodeling of the lobby near the habs in New Babbage to accommodate the hospital and gameplay in a future release.

Core Tech

  • Planetary Volumetric Clouds v1
    • Initial version of a bespoke system to convincingly render multi layered, volumetric clouds of varying scale within planetary atmospheres. This initial version is meant for the Gas Giant, Crusader.
  • Graphics Setting Addions
    • We’ve added a few new graphics settings that will help give more control over your experience in the PU. Added volumetric Cloud graphics options. We’ve added Low/Medium(original default)/High render distance for ground clutter. This setting allows you to pick the distance from the camera at which scattered objects spawn. We’ve also added Terrain Tessellation Distance for Low/Medium(original default)/High
