Shyla Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Pond Revamp The Pond and Pond Lab have been revamped with additional puzzles, gameplay, and secrets to discover. New underwater caves to find and explore. New Pond Lab outposts. New Resources: Algae, Muscle Sprouts. New SCA.Bs to collect. New Crafting Content Fin Flops+ Diving Lantern+ All smoothies now have a + version to unlock. New Language Translations Russian, Polish, Korean, Chinese, and Brazilian Portuguese localization added. Xbox and Windows Store Save System Revamp The save system for Xbox and Windows Store platforms has been refactored to be more robust and lightweight. New saves going forward should be more reliable when it comes to saving player data and properly uploading it to the cloud. The game will no longer need to do long cloud sync each time you boot it. Syncing between consoles should be more reliable. NOTE: This will require a one time save conversion step after logging in to convert any older saves to use the new system. New Features All platforms Spear weapons can now be thrown in water. Changes / Tuning Movement The player can jump out of the water at any location instead of just the edges Combat The Koi Fish can eat creatures (and you!). 2 handed weapons now deal slightly more damage. Water Boatmen now flee at a slower speed and have less HP. Tadpoles flee at a slower speed. Adjusting Dazzling Riposte; now reduces enemy defense after perfect block instead of reducing enemy attack. Timing in between creature attacks is now random instead of it always being the same fixed amount of time. Stamina regen is now reduced while you're actively holding block. The blocked damage percentage is now based on weapon type instead of always being 75%. Interface There is now a game option to display the distance over player nameplates to see how far they are. World New caves to explore in the pond. The Koi can now push pond foliage out of its way. Juice Droplets despawn after 3 days, allowing new ones to drop out of the straws in case a spawned drop somehow got lost. Eelgrass now respawns over time. Buildings Some structures such as Foundations, Scaffolds, and Walls, now align to the ground from their corners instead of their center Some other buildings such as the Jerky Rack, Zipline Anchor, and Dew Catcher, now sit on their legs instead of on their center point only Tweaked the order of some buildings in the radial. The Squared Roof Corner will now block wall crenellations below it. Crafting The recipe for decoy bait has been adjusted. Bug Fixes - All Platforms Grid-snapping non-structural buildings on top of existing structures now work correctly. Underground blueprints can now be canceled, either by looking at them or with Cancel Nearby Blueprints in the Game Preview Debug menu Buildings can no longer be briefly placed on canceled buildings. Spike Strips can now be placed next to each other when snapped to a grid. Buildings can't be built on stuffed insects. Buildings can't be built on other players' unplaced buildings.

Decoy Bait now properly behaves as a lure for both swimming and non-swimming creatures. Diving Bell Spider Chunks are now properly marked as a tier 2 material. Decoy Bait no longer causes non-swimming creatures to float in wacky ways. Fixed issue where dying in the depths would place your backpack at the starting spawn ravine. Koi collision better matches its animations to prevent the player from clipping into the model as much. Fixed random crashes with Grass Plank Storage and Weed Log Storage buildings.
