EARTH'S ELEMENTS UPDATE coming soon
Earth Elements Patch Notes — March 29, 2023
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Welcome
New update coming soon. I am in about 75 percent done with that rework.
Basically that will feel like new game.
I put a lot of effort since beginning of this year into this project. Lets give you some specifics:
A. Reworked whole units selection/orders
-unit selection. with mouse left mouse button dragging to select like in RTS style.
-with that comes independent orders to units. every unit could do different task. one can dig other could build, they could cooperate. You will have ability to select unit and tell it to go whenever you wont with right click button.
Now basically using left mouse button to select and right mouse click to give orders game feels much better. finally player will be in control what units are doing.
B. reworked /refactored tiles and maps and minimap too. Newest tile is water - fluid tile will spread. (cell automata mechanics. very interesting.)
You can choose narrow but deep map for more digging, or if you planning farming game - then select wide and huge map.
C. reworked/refactored almost every builds.
Added some new builds - builds with functionality. Cooking stove - producing hot meals looks nice.
Builds could be even placed in air. Roundones don't need to go to build to place it.
With that some explanation is needed to game mechanics. I loosen many restrictions. RoundOnes can dig even without access to DROPZONE, and build too. So exploring and digging on tunnels finally is fun. On those screenshots RoundOnes dig that tunnels tiles in about 10 minutes of play time. so in summary many restrictions gone. better play.
To do:
I still have huge aspect of game to work on - MACHINEs, and ENCYCLOPEDIA and SAVE and LOAD.
Yes. and GUI was reworked too - its much cleaner, simpler.
Thank You
those are only highlights of main changes.
