(Pssst! CoC2 got a public update yesterday too!)

Big news! We’re going to open up the javascript version of Trails in Tainted Space for everyone, finally. The plan is to let everyone loose in the fertile jungles of Mhen’ga while our backers get to beat on the rusty junkpile that is Tarkus. Both versions come with all the latest bug-fixes and UI polish, but the backer version has the baked-in knowledge that you made all this possible. <3

I expect to see more planets rolling out before long given the speed with which our newest volunteer coder has been shredding bugs. Just today I merged in a giant pile of code changes for Myrellion. I hope none of the wrong bugs got shredded, but you’ll have to see for yourself once we let you back into Gildenmere…

[PUBLIC & BACKER] TiTS 0.69.420 (#1008) Changelog:

  • [Update 10:08 PM] Gedan fixed an issue with Captain Khorgan that was preventing characters from saving after defeating her in certain scenarios.
  • [Update 10:08 PM] Penny’s recruitment quest should work now. I had to re-add missing busts for the red zil and venus ziltraps. I also had to fix about a dozen different crashes. I haven’t tested her on-ship content yet, so if she crashes… it’s on you.
  • [Update 9:20 PM] New Game should no longer crash. Sorry about that. A comprehensive fix for movement formatting replaced something in the creation routine that went undetected, since us devs are all using saves to test at this point.
  • Gedan fixed a bug that caused the game to crash on iOS. The UI is hardly happy about it, but it shouldn’t explode when you try to open it any more. I would personally hold off on trying to play on iOS for now. -Fen
  • We made some under the hood changes to how images are set up in the code to be more readable and play nicer with git. This should make it easier to add and adjust more images & busts in the future (and fix bugs with any that need fixing!)
    • [Fix Deployed] Known Bug: It appears the image updates broke some things. We’re looking into it.
  • The decorations system was updated with a proper UI for selecting your decoration in a room. I had to change how we were storing unlocked decorations in the code to do this, which has the unfortunate side-effect of losing all your currently unlocked decorations. Not to worry: I’ve taken steps so that when we have the cheat menu setup, you will be able to use it to unlock all the decorations in the game.
    • Psssst. If you really, really want to get back those missing items, you can always pop open your browser’s console and slap some of these in there to jam things into your inventory:
      • pc.inventory.insertItem(new (Serialization.getClassByName(“SteeleTechPoster”))());
      • pc.inventory.insertItem(new (Serialization.getClassByName(“SquirrelGirlPoster”))());
  • An absolute FUCKLOAD of bugs got fixed, both for currently available content and content that has yet to be released. I’m not even going to try to list them individually.

[BACKERS] TiTS 0.69.420 (#1008) Changelog:

  • You can fly to Tarkus now. Try not to junk up the place!

As always, if you like the game and like what we’re doing, you can always support us on Patreon or SubscribeStar! And if not, well, the free builds will still be here (eventually)!
