StarCrawlers - New Patch

The Early Access dungeon crawler StarCrawlers got a new patch:

StarCrawlers Patch Notes - 9/30 - More Faction Events!

Please note
The method of applying gamma adjustment has changed. If your title screen / space station is black, you simple need to reset your Player Preferences on the title screen. This will fix it!

A smaller (and sooner) patch this week as we're doing an optimization / bug fix patch in the next two week cycle which is less exciting - but necessary! This patch brings several new contact events on the Wire terminal, new items from those factions, and some bug fixes and gamma improvements.

Please also note! If your ESC hotkey (or any other hotkey) is not working, simply reset your player preferences from the Options menu on the title screen.

Factions

• UFP loyalists can now receive all of the services from contacting Horizon Robotics.
• Supporters of Aurora Starliners can now receive all of their services.
• Dissidents supporting Workers United can now receive all of their support.
• Emer LT, fiercely loyal to the UFP, can now be contacted via the Wire terminal in STIX.
• Anulap, telecom giant of the UFP, can now be contacted via the Wire terminal in STIX.
• Riggo’s Fine Spirits, fiercely loyal to partying, can now be contacted from the Wire terminal.

Items

• Added new unique items obtainable with favor when contacting factions.
• High-value items stolen from pirates now have a wider array of potential bidders at auction.

UI

• Added new method for gamma control that avoids the nightmare of adjusting ambient lighting. The method of scaling has changed, so you may need to adjust your gamma settings to achieve the desired level.
• Clarified info in the Wire terminal to indicate that factions with Neutral or lower rep may not wish to communicate with you.
• Effects and Abilities that pull characters in the timeline will not cause low level Time Units (0 - 5) to increase.

Cyberninja

• Cyclone Kick will now also hit targets that have the same TU as the Cyberninja once the ability is executed.

Engineer

• Bolty will no longer occasionally fly upside and shoot at the ceiling when performing Strafe.

Smuggler

• Kalmonri Trap now deals the correct amount of damage when attacked by enemies.

Void Psyker

• Siphon Life (Rank 3) Detonation will now correctly hit all mobs.
• Void Shell now correctly only shows damage reflection on the effect description at Rank 3.
• Fixed an issue causing crawlers to bizarrely state their class when encountering pirates which have been terrified by the Void Psyker.

Fixes

• Fixed wall placement issue in Mines.
• Fixed an issue with item upgrades that applied buffs inadvertently removing other buffs.
• Fixed an issue that could cause NPC merc gear to become removeable and fail to regenerate shields at the start of combat.
• Events that give items will now attempt to create a loot cache nearby (if on a mission) or send you the item in the mail, if your inventory is full when the item is given.
• Fixed an issue with a certain boss incorrectly scaling to a lower level when faced on Challenge+ difficulty.

Coming Soon

• More friendly faction contact events:
• Allure Cybergenetics
• Dablue Yutaki
• An enhanced way to interact with StarCrawlers.
• More cool stuff!
