Zek · September 2004

I can't believe I read the whole thing. So I take it regen overflow was removed?

P.S. My god the site is lagged right now.

Align · September 2004

I think the changes from the previous logs arent listed. Otherwise eclipse would be in there.

Ace! I'm really looking forward to this, looks like a lot of nice changes are being made.

Zunni · September 2004

Actually, anything from my previous posts not in this changelog were pulled either due to bugs found in them, or if they were found to unbalance the game.

Al_Kaholic · September 2004

I thought people were saying there were only a <i>few</i> buffs to the Aliens.... not that I want there to be only a few. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /> I'm glad Movement Chambers are much more viable in the field now, and Redemption finally got a buff.

I haven't finished reading yet, but the bulk of it looks fantastic, and Combat feels very different. Great jaerb!

amarc · September 2004

Excellent! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

Stavesacre · September 2004

Well now, I guess we will see how this all works out wont we?

EDIT: Oh yeah! Congrats to Mendasp and Monkey for your maps being added to the offical roster! You guys rock!

O Unchained alien lifeforms, like regular NS:

- Fade costs 3 levels
- Onos costs 4 levels
O Lifeform evolution times set to a smaller percentage of those in regular NS.
O Aliens can now only choose a lifeform once per life in Combat.</td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>

Exactly what I wanted! Thank you! And hooray!

Great work guys <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' />

Zunni · September 2004

BTW, I'm giving fair warning here.. Any posts that start complaining about the changes made, or how they will affect the game in this thread will be deleted outright.. This is not the place for that conversation.

If you want to make those sorts of posts, start a new thread.

I'd like to keep the focus on the changelog itself NOT on how it effects your game.

From my understanding, there were a few bugs in the new eclipse that needed to be corrected. If they get corrected before the release then we'll include it.

chao · September 2004

I hope it's still included <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' />
Looking good, can't wait.

i love when there is no more missing sounds

That_Annoying_Kid · September 2004

Visual reference of a parasite will now be removed when a mapper placed building is destroyed.

^^ 1.00 bug is *finally* dead

I saw plenty of good things in this changelog, but I didn't see welder icon <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' />

and are the forums going to have to go down during the release?! I need my precious!

UKchaos · September 2004

What about veil? Is that vent gonna get fixed?

Doobie_Dan · September 2004

I assume then that Regen overflow was perceived to be too strong and therefore unbalancing. Can you confirm that for us, Zunni?

All I can say is that it was backed out. I'm not sure if it was a balance issue, or if it bugged something else..

Licho · September 2004

Unfortunatelly there were annoying stuck issues in eclipse computer core hive .. that's why it was rolled back..

EvenFlow · September 2004

*Does the donce of joy*

Theslan · September 2004

Props on the deevolve changes and the wave spawn in CO. This definitely makes it much more closer towards classic.

I do have one question:

O Aliens no longer take negative damage (gain the damage back as health) when they have 4 or more hives.

What does this mean?

Steel_Troll · September 2004
