Crowning Glory — cyberpunkdreams News

So, today's update has a few things in it. A lot of the time has actually been on the new engine stuff, which, believe it or not, was all triggered by finally wanting to get solar charging working for vehicles not currently equipped – this was not going to happen without a lot of new stuff in the engine. A lot of these changes will also make it easier to add things like vehicles in future (the single most time-consuming item to add), plus weapon mods and more of that kind of thing.

Asymmetrical clothing was also something I've wanted to do for ages, and required a load of work on the skin system... but it only took about an hour in the end. I also wanted to add a load more workshop stuff, as previously promised, and making the Interog8.1337 more useful meant writing a load more content too. Oh, and one of the newer mutations has been implemented or something.

Near future stuff is still in the works – that means full contact mechanics with Martha, stuff for Maggie and Rose, and the morgue and related things. I'm also still planning a live Q&A on Discord in the near future. More info to follow.

Pricing update

At some point fairly soon I will enable the latest changes to Steam's pretty-pricing; this is the pricing across different countries that takes into effect cost of living, etc., and not just exchange rate. Most places will see small changes, and mostly slightly cheaper, but some countries might see more expensive prices. This only affects DLC prices, not microtransactions on the site.

In the longer term, the base pricing will have to go up at some point. I first made these prices in 2020 or something, and inflation has been pretty brutal since then (at least here in the UK). However, this won't be for a while, and when it happens, there will probably be bigger credit packs with a bigger discount per credit too.
