Patch Notes Update Beta - 1.6 and The Engineers (2.1) incoming

Oh, is that all? :p

Looking forward to finally getting back into this game. Even more so once my final exams have finished!
 
I think I have a long way to go yet on the change log but....


Holding the vertical thrust input while launching from a landing pad will now work properly (you no longer have to release the input and re-apply it)


YAY! No more screaming at my muscle memory
 
Why?

- Shield cell banks now fire one at a time when triggered using the shield cell bank hotkey (similar to heatsinks)
 
Sooo.. Nothing about the Vive rendering?

I was really hoping it would be fixed before August or something (get my Vive in June), but considering it's not even on the list I feel like it will take until at least end of this year to fix that...

Zac can you please tell us about how the staged Beta will work? I can't post in the 2.1 beta discussions thread yet, but will there be a thread in there telling us what needs testing and when?

I can. We've got 3 phases. They're being detailed in the community site article when the beta goes live. Have a read of that when it's up. :)

Let me know if there are any questions after that.
 
so much to take in :) Did the updates to the crime and punishment systems make it in? I don't remember seeing them :)
 
NPC's Drives do not malfunction when damaged
Wait so now NPCs don't have to worry about their drives malfunctioning like Players do. If you improved their AI why do they get new cheats to give them even more of an advantage?
 
Any fix for the shadows of the FAS? Hull isn't showing on shadow, but landing gear, hardpoints, etc... are.
Otherwise, really liking what I'm seeing here.
 
'Fix when choosing actions to oppose a Power. Independent powers should now always use the hostile variants against each other in all circumstances.'

Eh? What does this mean?

I just finished retraining my muscles.
 
I wonder if it is worth giving people the ability to create a bookmark for where they are.
For example this may be useful for bookmarking a particular spot on a planet, which is good for racing etc..
