Patch Notes | Update 1.1

Gameplay

New Spells:

• Doppelganger added
  
• Hush added
  

Lobby Gameplay:

• Added new dockside lobby area
  
• The docks have been infested by rats!!!!
  
• All players must be aboard the ship in the lobby before an expedition can be launched
  
• Can find items and craft weapons at the docks
  
• Added the Grimoire, which allows players to equip 3 different spells and change spell order
  

Balance:

• Boiler sabotage causes an explosion damaging nearby players as well as the ship. The more gunpowder, the more damage
  
• Undetonated gunpowder left in the boiler when it runs out of fuel remains and will explode when the boiler is restarted and fueled for long enough
  
• Reduced the initial sabotage delay when putting a single unit of gunpowder into the boiler from 2 minutes to 1 minute
  
• Additional units of gunpowder now subtract 6 seconds from the initial sabotage delay rather than halving it
  
• Increased the powderkeg fuse time to 30 seconds from 20
  
• Powderkeg has a moving fuse particle that shows how close it is to exploding
  
• Pack ice slows the ship by 20% (was 30%)
  
• Reaching 100 speed while driving the ship now requires ‘boosting’, which overheats the boiler. If it overheats too much it will explode and damage the ship much like a gunpowder sabotage
  
• Boosting through pack ice allows the ship to reach a maximum speed of 80
  
• Only one ranged weapon can be carried at a time (Bow/Musket/Pistol)
  
• Musket / Pistol reticle remains static when equipping
  
• Musket damage falloff increased by 25% beyond 80 meters
  
• Bow’s spread expands immediately after shooting then shrinks with aiming
  
• Firing and drawing Bow costs stamina
  
• Bear Traps now have an arming delay before they can be placed
  
• Cannibal move speed increased by 10%
  
• You can refuse to be let out of the brig
  
• Thralls can cast spells from the brig
  
• Casting spells no longer leaves bloodstains on the ground
  
• Thrall spell UI can’t be opened until the bone dagger has finished its equip animation
  
• Player’s upward velocity is no longer imparted to nitro when thrown (prevents “jump boosting” nitro up into places it shouldn’t go)
  

Fixes

• Cannibals no longer path to and target thrall spell caster after the spell target is killed or unreachable
  
• Fix to falling off ladder in Summit
  
• Objects dropped on the ship no longer despawn for a player who is far away
  
• Casting a spell in a wall consumes HP and makes a sound
  
• Fixed items visually floating in your hand when picked up
