Not at the moment no. And before you ask - resting to refill psi won't be implemented.

Heya and thanks for the feedback.
1. You mean while the cursor is on top of the area with the log type buttons? I guess but then some people might accidentally scroll when trying to change the log type. I try out how it feels first.
3. Yes, it's intentional do speed up the combat. Heh, never figured anyone would want to play with standard speed, but sure, it's an easy toggle.
4. I think scaling it down on low resolutions would make it too impractical to read. It's best to turn it off if you're playing on that low res.
5. It will be possible eventually.
6. I'm curious why would you want that? Isn't the graphical indicator enough?
7. Possibly once close to release.

« on: September 12, 2013, 11:03:57 pm »Spending a grenade to trigger detected enemy mines is a solution, but kind of an expensive one. Add rocks to the game as grenades with no blast radius or effect!
The caltrops thing is kind of sucky. What about making the player immune to his own caltrops, too kind?
By the way, I wish the player wouldn't trigger his own mines. This is the first game I've played where I can place mines and also trigger them.
I might implement a way to auto-detect traps with some sort of device. However, if I do that it will also require resources to activate.
Sorry, caltrops are meant to have this disadvantage.
Your character will automatically walk around the mines they can see.

I would assume there's a way to disable them in the Steam client as it displays them, not the game.
Btw, guys, lots of good suggestions. Used some of the names for what they were suggested and some inspired me for other achievements.
I'm almost done with implementing the initial 50 achievements.

Other Games / Re: List of sandbox games?
« on: September 05, 2013, 10:19:30 pm »
Try Might & Magic 6-7, part 7 being one of my favorite games of all times and probably the best open world game I've played.
However, the graphics are quite dated and the mechanics are fairly old school, so not everyone has the patience to play it these days.
Also music is crazy good.

Bugs / Re: unable to target enemy standing near door
« on: September 05, 2013, 10:15:58 pm »
I remember having this issue a couple of times. I think the solution is a bit more tricky then it would seem on account how the targeting is coded. I'll look into it again.
Btw, try using Z key instead of TAB, it should prioritize objects in reverse.

You can trigger mines with any kind of AoE attack, such as grenades.
Hold shift and the utility (red) action bar will turn into reload bar.
Watch where you throw them caltrops.
Adding more keyboard shortcuts is in the task list.

« on: September 05, 2013, 11:57:24 am »
As epeli said, throwing is a support skill. I'm probably going to add throwing knives as well at some point, but that still won't work as a primary source of damage.

Just so you know what's up if the site goes down temporarily (as it did recently).
The fine people at HostGator are helping me deal with the problem so hopefully we can put a stop to this.

Suggestions / Re: Have intelligence affect number of skill points?
« on: September 04, 2013, 10:03:10 pm »
I agree that there should be feats relying on the intelligence so I'll definitively be adding some of those. Also, I think there's a couple of cases (at least one I can think of the top of my head) where intelligence comes to play in dialogues. I'll strive to add more in the future.
As for bonus skill points, I'm not really a fan of that. I don't see skillfulness in general to be heavily intelligence based. Maybe it should increase number of points you can spend in science skills, but that's already accomplished indirectly by the bonus the intelligence gives to all your science skills so I feel it works pretty well there. I'll probably just be adding science feats that will be intelligence based and will boost your crafting in some interesting way.

« on: September 01, 2013, 12:50:43 am »I'm glad to find the new 0.1.9.0 released. But before trying it, I'd be glad to know if the notorious .44 gun problem with the related subsequent save/load problems are solved? It will be so sad to play a half of a game again and then lose everything due to that(
I never managed to find what caused your problem. Nothing remotely similar ever happened in any of my tests.
