    2. Bug Fixes
    3. Fixed a bug that could cause the game to hitch when save data was being persisted to file on disk
    4.  
    5. Reduced cases where save files would be written when no changes have occurred.
    6.  
    7. Update v1.6.2:
    8. Bug Fixes
    9. Fixed a bug that could cause player inputs to get locked out after a transition from one planet to the next
    10.  
    11. Added hunter time bonus to some events that were missing it
    12.  
    13. Capped target dummy force so they don’t get stuck under floor
    14.  
    15. Update v1.6.1:
    16. Bug Fixes
    17. Fixed VFX style on the kinetic version of the Highbeam Head ability to match its kinetic damage type
    18.  
    19. Fixed a bug with bolt burgers sometimes landing at incorrect locations on Lil' Tangus in Random mode (Thanks tkroo!)
    20.  
    21. Fixed a bug that could cause AI creatures to get corrupted and teleport around over time. This mostly happened with summoned minions
    22.  
    23. Fixed a bug where minions were not getting cleaned up correctly when despawning
    24.  
    25. Update v1.6.0:
    26. New Ability
    27. Introducing Poprocks! Hold the ability input to charge up your damage, then release a powerful bolt of elemental energy. If the hit kills an enemy, a cluster of elemental grenades will spawn.
    28.  
    29.  
    30.  
    31. New Enemy and Meat!
    32. We wanted to give players a way to heal Harvester Nodes and Shrine events, so allow us to introduce Grease Monkey, a decommissioned auto-mechanic bot who never got the memo that he'd been replaced.
    33. The Grease Monkey torso comes with six wrenches that you throw at friendly structures like Harvester Nodes and Shrines to heal them.
    34.  
    35.  
    36.  
    37. Camera Controls
    38. Added an option in the Video settings to adjust the camera follow distance for the player.
    39.  
    40.  
    41.  
    42. Performance Gains
    43. Added pooling projectiles and pooling enemies to help reduce performance spikes
    44.  
    45. Gameplay
    46. The internals of shooting have been adjusted. Previously projectile and hitscan visually appeared to fire from the muzzle of the weapon, but logically fired from the camera. Because of our patented meat swapping technology, it was very hard to figure out where the player's weapons were, and they could easily be under the ground or in a wall. So we made the visual/logical split. Moving the camera actually affected your shots, and we really wanted to add camera distance options. We realized we could use the same visual logical split to guarantee that the projectiles originated in a good place, closer to the line of fire.
    47.  
    48.  
    49.  
    50.  
    51. Now they logically fire from the character at whatever the camera is aiming at. This fixes issues with range calculation on shorter range weapons, and shooting at enemies near your character.
    52.  
    53.  
    54.  
    55.  
    56. Player-team event structures (such as Harvester Nodes during the extraction event) now have more health the more players are in the game, matching the increased volume of enemies.
    57. Barrier has been reworked. Previously gaining Barrier would stack the amount and reset the duration, which was either weak when you couldn't reliably trigger it, or overpowered when you could. Now, when you gain Barrier it always sets the Barrier amount to Maximum and resets the duration. However, the Maximum is now 100 (down from 600) and the duration is 10s (down from 30s). We've also added a new level-up item called "Beefed Corn" that increases the barrier maximum.
    58. Chilling/freezing an enemy spawner will now slow it down
    59. Enemies only display elemental material changes when the elemental effect is actually applied.
    60.  
    61.  
    62. Bug Fixes
    63. Bozo Balloons will no longer chase Tangus Racer cars after taking friendly fire from them
    64. Fixed bug that enemies would hover for a bit after being staggered
    65. Fixed bug that staggering a frozen enemy didn't logically remove the Frozen condition
    66. Fixed bug where projectiles would appear to fire from the wrong position if the character was not facing forward at the time of shooting.
    67. Fixed bug with Agent Duckstone walking on air sometimes
    68. Fixed bug where enemies could penetrate through concave cliffs
    69. Fixed Carl Quests tab empty state when all quests are completed
    70. Fixed bug where mutation and weapon upgrades weren't updating immediately in the UI
    71. more accurate collision in Tangus Prime
    72.  
    73.  
    74. UX/UI
    75. Added barrier UI overtop of player portrait whenever player receives barrier from any source
    76. Main Menu UI and flow changes. Added UI support for in-progress run continuation. Main menu now includes a "Continue" button which displays current employee info and location for in-progress runs. You can also see this info on the save select screen if you have multiple employee files that are in-progress, and can abandon runs from here before loading. Also, previously the first planet of a system did not count towards being "in-progress" but we've now updated so that if you start a run and exit to the menu, you will load back into the first planet rather than the lobby.
    77.  
    78. Update v1.5.1:
    79. Bug Fixes
    80. Fixed an issue when changing languages
    81. Fixed a few gathering node locations that had fallen below the world
    82. Challenge Events will no longer incorrectly reward the player with XP
    83. Fixed Rangus File locations on Esfera De Carne (Thanks @mowuer for the bug report that led to us finding this!)
    84. Fixed a bug that could cause "After the Bad Dream" and "Ten Floors Below Heaven" achievements not to be granted. The achievement should be granted retroactively the next time players who meet the requirements start up a game (Thanks @mowuer for the bug report)
    85. Fixed a class of bugs that could lead to the Pounding Fathers surviving to continue their fight even when at 0HP (Thanks @secondsebe for the bug report!)
    86. Fixed a bug that was causing an as-yet-unreleased Alien enemy to appear in the Codex (thank you @mowuer for the report!)
    87.  
    88. Update v1.5.0:
    89. Bug Fixes
    90. Fixed an issue where a removed item was causing problems if previously selected from an older save.
    91. Fixed an issue where the “Mark all read” button in the Codex was marking all future unlocks read pre-emptively.
    92. Fixed an issue where all enemies were unlocked on planet spawn. Entries are now unlocked when you first deal damage to, or take damage from, a new creature type.
    93. Fixed an issue where the health insurance event was granting hunter timer relief.
    94. Fixed a bug that could cause exceptions during teardown for hosts.
    95.  
    96.  
    97. Audio
    98. Fixed some mixing issues with hunter-related voices and SFX
    99.  
    100.  
    101. UX/UI
    102. Changed the “Codex entries unlocked” toast in the Ship Lobby to a singular, smaller toast notification.
    103. Meat Part entries in the Codex now unlock based on pickup instead of proximity
    104.  
    105. Update v1.4.0:
    106. Meat Persists Between Planets
    107.  
    108. We’ve heard you and have decided to let you keep your meat between planets. We originally were worried that this would break some of the boss encounters, but your feedback has given us a change of heart. You work hard keeping your meat healthy so who are we to take it away, enjoy!
    109.  
    110.  
    111. New Cosmetics
    112.  
    113. Head to the employee meat locker to equip some of the hot new looks from Rangus!
    114.  
    115.  
    116.  
    117. You unlocked these as part of the Steak Your Claim community loot event, and honestly, blew us all away.
    118.  
    119. Who's the Boss
    120.  
    121. AT-NT
    122.  
    123. We wanted to bolster our miniboss roster, so meet the AT-NT. He's a step up from Broadside in difficulty and mechanic density, dangerous at range, and those legs are not something you want near you. He might look rickety, but he's got more spring in his step than you'd expect. He's been practicing his favorite sport. Find him on Calypso!
    124.  
    125.  
    126.  
    127. Broadside
    128.  
    129. Broadside wasn't putting up enough of a fight, and with his attack limitations he wasn't engaging players as often as we wanted. We've made some changes:
    130.  
    131. He fires 3x as many mines so watch your step.
    132. He now sends 2 tornadoes per player instead of 1, adding some chaos to the fight.
    133. He also has a new attack that might trigger some nostalgic memories. Those memories could come in handy, dodge correctly and you'll earn a brief buff.
    134.  
    135.  
    136. He's also a bit beefier overall.
    137.  
    138.  
    139.  
    140.  
    141. Hunter Timer Changes
    142.  
    143. We heard your feedback that the Hunter timer felt too tight, and we think we've found a good balance.
    144.  
    145. Hunters never get banished
    146. Hunters can be pushed back from enrage by buying more time
    147. Hunters can still be incapacitated
    148. Completing Prime Directives now grants noticeably more time — they're your strongest lever for staying ahead, alongside Shrines
    149. Secondary objectives give a little time on top. The tougher ones — further from the main path — are worth more time and more power, so if you've been racing straight through Prime Directives, those detours are where you'll find the upgrades to keep up.
    150.  
    151.  
    152.  
    153. Performance Improvements
    154.  
    155. We’ve been working hard to address the performance issues that some players have been experiencing. Here are some of the key improvements we’ve made since launch.
    156.  
    157. LOD pass on all models and environments
    158. Reduced CPU usage of various game systems resulting in ~15% lower overall CPU usage during gameplay
    159. Greatly reduced memory churn caused by the creation and destruction of short-lifetime objects in the game. This should help with the single frame “hitches” that could interrupt otherwise smooth gameplay
    160. Reduced unnecessary network replication traffic from some objects that could be accurately simulated on client instead
    161. Fixed a bug that was causing draw distance not to honor its configured value at some Quality Settings levels
    162. Added performance related telemetry streams so that the team can continue monitoring and improving performance over time
    163.  
    164.  
    165.  
    166. Melee Game Feel
    167.  
    168. We added more feel and polish to Melee and Staggers. There’s now more umph in the form of a “freeze frame” on the staggered enemy, camera shake, knockback updates, and hit visuals and sound effects for that satisfying SMACK!
    169.  
    170.  
    171.  
    172. ‌
    173. Shrine Updates
    174.  
    175. We've heard your feedback and made some improvements to shrine event balance.
    176.  
    177. in world health display
    178. destroyable portals
    179. shrine health increased 30%
    180.  
    181.  
    182.  
    183. Gameplay
    184.  
    185. You now retain any meat picked up when changing planets instead of reverting to default meat
    186. Added 240hz frame limit option

    189. Boombot’s stagger detonation now harms their own team for splash damage when players smack them away.
    190. Reduced knockback on Freeze to avoid knocking enemies away from players that just want to shatter them with their spatulas. Thanks for the feedback @cloudkracker
    191. Elemental accumulation multipliers on certain weapons have been reduced.
    192. Explosive radius on Ice and Slime Magnums have been reduced
    193.  
    194.  
    195.  
    196.  
    197.  
    198. Meta Progression

    209. Pass on all Stagger anims for a hit stop / freeze frame feel
    210.  
    211.  
    212.  
    213. UI / UX
    214.  
    215. Added a background to codex detail text
    216. Fixed some layout issues in the codex

    218. Added a marker around downed players to make their sad little meatball bodies easier to find and revive
    219.  
    220.  
    221.  
    222.  
    223.  
    224.  
    225. Audio
    226.  
    227. Added more vocalizations for Carl for when you Equip and Throw his head meat.
    228. Mix polish after all the great feedback. Special thanks to @Fubuki
    229.  
    230.  
    231.  
    232. Bug Fixes
    233.  
    234. Fixed a rare bug with returning to the lobby

    241. Lots of minor performance fixes
    242. Fixed mutation names sometimes not displaying in level up ui
    243. Null can now be staggered by the usual systems
    244. Null’s Starfall no longer slams twice in a row
    245. Tower Torso is no longer visible during Dirtbag Legs Burrow ability
    246. Carl’s head no longer disappears from his mech after teleport slamming
    247. Wheelie Legs Turbo Charge and Miner Head Landmines now both detonate on contact with the Hunters.
    248. Reduced the jitteriness of some torsos so Carl’s head and other meats don’t flicker so badly when running around.
    249. Fixed various typos in our descriptions and subtitles
    250. Fixed missing SFX that were dropping out during the chaos
    251. Fixed extra loud ambience on the ship and during Monday Night Midterms boss fight
    252. Fixed a bug that could cause Steamdeck to lock up when resuming from sleep
    253. Fixed a bug that could cause “Disconnected” messages to end the game even in single-player situations - especially when returning from hibernate/sleep
    254.  
    255. Update v1.3.1:
    256. Gameplay
    257.  
    258. Null's Starfall slam now has a split-second longer to avoid, and also doesn't speed up in higher difficulties to remain a constant.
    259. Zorpjets have been tuned after learning they were OP and melting Harvester Nodes on Hard mode
    260. Eyeclops can no longer target Harvester Nodes with their Beam attack (was melting nodes, rarely and frustratingly)
    261. Doubled spawn rate of highest-tier Mineral and Astronaut resources
    262.  
    263.  
    264. Higher Tier Resources
    265.  
    266. Doubled the rate of higher tier resources in Nightmare (Planet 2+)
    267. Doubled the rate of higher tier resources in Hard (Planet 2+)
    268. Slightly increased the rate of higher tier resources in Nightmare (Planet 1)
    269.  
    270.  
    271. The idea of these changes it that you can obtain higher tier resources at easier difficulties instead of needing to reach past what the player's personal ability is. We want the player to be able to climb into harder difficulties and this should help.
    272.  
    273. Analytics
    274.  
    275. Added some additional logging to help track down performance issues
    276.

    283. Null is now able to be staggered.

    289. Turbo Charge ability (Wheelie Legs) now properly detonates on Null and Void.
    290. Reduced jitter on Carl Head when equipped during the Hunter Boss fight.
    291. A few typos fixed in Rangus Files and subtitles.
    292. Border around Hunter boss fight doesn’t enable until the Hunters spawn.
    293.  
    294.  
    295. Gameplay
    296. Knockback now reduced by 75% when Freezing enemies.
    297. Thanks for the feedback, @Cloudkracker !
    298.  
    299. Adjusting camera height while Carl’s head is equipped, so you can see your character more.
    300. Boombots hurt their own team now, and have 25% higher damage and knockback.
    301. Null’s “starfall” slam attack now hurts enemies as well. Having some rip-roaring fun with it! Dicey play but very fun to get a win with a well-timed dodge in a group of enemies.
    302.  
    303.  
    304. Audio
    305. Adding Carl vocalizations for when you equip and throw his head.

    312. Bug fixes
    313. Fixed miscellaneous crash bugs

    316. Fixed a bug with the cancel buttons closing too many windows when backing out of the key rebind screen
    317. Fixed a bug where interacting with rangus files could sometimes lock out further interactions
    318. Fixed an issue with frame rates being initially uncapped when opening SWAPMEAT which stressed graphics cards
    319. Fixed a bug that was causing Null’s “starfall” attack so slam down twice each time.
    320.  
    321.  
    322. Performance
    323. Improved CPU performance by around 5%. We’re working on bigger improvements to come.

    359.

    361. Gameplay
    362. Bubble Shields now twice as large and provide invulnerability while inside

    370. Updates to galaxy map UI
    371. Carl quest REP celebration banner
    372. Dottie/Large Marge image updates in codex
    373. Added the missing primary and secondary weapon hotkeys as re-bindable controls in the options menu. Thanks @bfield for the report!
    374. Updated Localizations for all languages.
    375.  
    376. Update v1.0.3:
    377. Bug fixes

    392. Bioflux (slime plasma gun) had explosions slightly reduced 2.5 -> 2
    393. Barbecuria renamed to Brisketon
    394. Increased the visual radius of Franks laser, this is to help reflect the damage radius of the laser.
    395. Greatly decreased the hit detection of Frank laser, before the laser would be tracing behind and still hitting the player as the radius of damage was greater than the visual.
