PC V2.0 Storms Brewing Dev Diary

[faatal]

There's a lot I'm looking forward to in 2.0, but improvements to wilderness road generation are at the top of the list. Probably because I'm weird, or OCD, or whatever. But those ugly, buggy terrain malformations at POI RoadExits have kinda ruined RWG for me lately. I really hope those are gone for good.

There are still a few road issues like roads that cut across a POI corner have a bump as they are not allowed to change a POI's terrain height, so the road path smoothing needs to avoid it somehow.

Sure, I could see it being updated, but if it was me, it would have no dates on it.

Guess I'll have to bring it up during the dev stream then!

That's not a big problem compared to the weird RoadExit terrain issues, or roads just plain failing to generate and connect at all to some RoadExits. Those are the worst.

There's also the old issue of roads cutting completely through really huge wilderness POIs, but it sounds like that will be less likely to occur now with the improvements you've made to POI placement in RWG.

Soon. The patch notes are still being worked on by various people. I finished the RWG section today.

thankyou. the rwg is the thing that has kept me playing. i really like piddling around in there and seeing what i can do with the smallest world settings~

Does anybody else NOT see the avatar images on the left of the forum posts?
Weirdly enough, I do see my avatar image on the left ONLY when writing a new post, but after I send it... no more!

The new forum is still a work in progress. Certain features might not work for a while, there could be downtime.
It will all be sorted out soon enough.

Unknown. We tend to add more or change more than we estimate, so it takes longer than we think.

Does this allude to there possibly being some Easter eggs being added, that were not written
about? I ask because I remember through a few alphas, the simple release, actually turned into
the release plus an inclusion of topics preceding the release, randomly posted through the forums,
specifically the pimp dreams, that aligned with the release goal for that particular version.

Yeah, it seems their storage for avatars was down and is back up again.
