Version 0.4.2
Sunward » Devlog
Added
- The remaining buildings received their exterior lights: every structure now glows with its own light.
Changed
- Building shadows now glide smoothly with the sun through the day instead of stepping.
- A fresh boot splash featuring the new sun and deep-space backdrop.
Fixed
- Alert badges (power, crew, oxygen, storage) always show on top now, never buried under lit windows or passing clouds.
- The Warp Gate no longer raises a false no-oxygen alert.
- Exterior lights fade out properly as a building's interior is revealed, instead of glowing through it.
- The asteroid info panel no longer flickers.
Performance
- A major optimization pass across the whole game: frame rates roughly double in most situations, from small outposts to sprawling late-game colonies.
- Panning the camera around your base is dramatically smoother.
- Fast-forwarding a large colony no longer drags the frame rate down.
- The simulation itself runs twice as fast on big colonies, with behavior exactly as before.
