ATMOSFAR EA 1.0-5 fixes Mawknest Cluster traps, Cloud Cruiser bugs and tweaks balance
ATMOSFAR EA 1.0-5 fixes Cloud Cruiser soft-locks and Mawknest Cluster collision traps, and eases stunner and Wasp fuel use.
ATMOSFAR EA 1.0-5 is out, and it’s mostly about getting you unstuck. Apog Labs says it’s the second in a series of fixes running across this weekend and the following week, based on bug reports and feedback from the bug reporting tool, Discord and Steam.
Cloud Cruiser and progression fixes
- Fixed a soft-lock where the nuclear reactor core despawned after being dropped into the Cloud Cruiser collector hopper.
- Fixed the reactor core going missing without a quest marker after detaching from the Hauler Wasp magnet.
- Fixed the camp hub and attached storage boxes despawning when manually attached to a Wasp inside the Cloud Cruiser.
- Fixed players clipping into the chair or being unable to stand up after sitting in the Cloud Cruiser.
Mawknest Cluster and level design
Most of this patch is collision cleanup, with a lot of it at Mawknest Cluster.
- Several spots where you could get wedged between industrial pipes, rocks and tree trunks, or stuck in a crouch, have been dealt with.
- Fixed a rock gap you could fall into while climbing, and missing terrain collision that dropped players through the world back to the Starting Island.
- Fixed a tight collision pocket on Prison Island that stopped players recovering their death cache.
- Moved a small battery location out of a junkyard pile on Pearl Island, and addressed a misleading path into an inescapable pit in the starting foundry there.
- Fixed a player falling into the textures of a medium-dead hydrodendron tree.
Animation and interface
- Fixed character animations freezing or locking into a static pose during movement, tool use and exploration on Mawknest Cluster.
- Character breathing no longer affects aiming and camera movement.
- Players now see a network connection error message when a co-op connection fails.
- Fixed an untranslated label in the CC window.
Balance changes
- Downed drones stay stunned for longer.
- The stunner tool uses less power.
- Wasps use less fuel.
- Wasp roll rate is lower when flying with the mouse.
What’s next
Apog Labs plans a much larger update on the experimental branch no later than 23:00 CET tonight. It’s expected to bring more level design fixes, stability improvements and performance changes.
