I've already read on Steam people complaining about the current (A19) AI because they expect zombies to ALL behave the same way... so when they see 3/4 of them out of 20 going their way doing different things (e.g.: rage mode) they'll just rant about not being able to reliably build a blood moon base because they can't predict where the zombies will go.

And those people will whine and cry no matter what TFP does so why worry about them?

Fataal has mentioned multiple changes he has been working on. There should be a 19.2 and possibly a 19.3. When those will release is a totally different issue.

Later alphas usually go up to .4 , though that last patch is usually later and way within the next alpha development; .2 and .3 could be with us within a 30 day timeframe, but it really is in flux, so it depends on the severity of the tickets adressed, so When It's done™️ is applied here too.

Backporting is time-consuming and focused on most needed fixes because, as the word implies, fixes that come our way are already implemented in the next alpha. In this case, optimization is in need of love for the next few patches (as it is always WIP) , among other things. Be aware that the actual patch notes are usually bigger, as making the notes is also a pain in the knees.

.5s, .6 and so on are extremely uncommon and haven't been happening for 3 years now. So I'm just stating the obvious as I experienced it over the years.

Short answer: When it's done. But sooner than soon™️ and rather sooner than later.

personally i would love to see
Normal zombies act dumb, if they attack you're base and just swarm kinda like how they uses too!, they see they attack but they can still dig, jump, rage
Feral Zombies are Smart and able to climb up stuff better, move better, run, Dig, and Even able to Leap and jump Higher! and they like to attack weaker blocks, and doors, but you can funnel them still
 

And special zombies are also smart with their own abilities, And they all have around the same health as their feral Versions! 

Like spiders are able to jump up to 15 blocks high and long, Cops acid can leave pools that deal damage and armor damage, Ferals are just crackheads and they just keep getting back up!

There will definitely be a 19.2 with most likely an experimental release of it first. How soon is anyone's guess.

Faatal mentioned some performance improvements for 19.2. I believe, so it sounds like 19.2 is cumming.

Would be experimental first. There has been a couple of builds posted in the testing branch so... Soon? (Meaning, when it's done)

Hi Faatal,

Quick question: Does the game currently support 32:9 aspect ratio monitors (5120 x 1440 res.)?

I'm looking at the new Samsung G9 with the 1000R screen curvature; looks amazing!

And thank you for all your great work and answering our questions.

If I'm not counting wrong, b3 is done already - the question is, if it will pass the tests for an exp release or not. We will see tomorrow if they'll make another build, maybe...

Or it could be released this evening... Maybe???

Will we be seeing the new nurse soon? Prime (Lathan) "almost" showed her on his last Twitch stream, but ran into problems.

@MechanicalLens Iirc you're looking for "corner bars". Have you checked the "Fences and Railings" block's shape menu. There is a corner railing that might do what you need it to.

Those are railings, not bars. When upgraded, railings only have a maximum of 300 health. They simply would not do.

It doesn't matter though. It's more of an OCD thing.

The very first computer bug that ever occurred was a moth that flew into one of the early computers and shorted out a circuit to produce a error.

Sorry, but that's not entirely true... there weren't exactly "circuits" at that time, it was called a "memory node" and it was made of rings of copper wires.

I know this bcause I had read some "computer encyclopedia" when I was a boy about the history of computers (not that it was useful afterwards lol).

BTW: each node was probably the size of a coin or more!  :heh:
