Version 1.1.2.3

UI

• Holding left or right ALT key will now allow you to always target the tile and ignore any entities; this will allow you to get behind your forcefields among other things

Tweaks

• Tweaked the NPCs decision making a bit regarding when to attack the Forcefield and when to go around

Bugs

• Electrokinesis will now be automatically innervated when learned from Bison
• Neural Overload will now be automatically innervated when learned by alternative means from Ezra
• Serrated and broadhead bolts and bear traps will no longer ignore bleed immunity on living creatures
• Cyrokinetic Orb will no longer be able to crit targets immune to it when used with Psionic Mania
• Psi-cognitive Interruption will no longer deal more damage than psi burned (modified by the damage modifier of course); previously it could deal normal damage even if no psi was burned
• Fixed the bug that caused the game to crash when using force field against crawlers
• Headlight component no longer stacks
• Fixed Ion's quest upon completion not awarding player with money
• [Expedition] Further fixes to the Dude's door
  
• [Expedition] BArm Grinder 350 will now sport its stated power (instead of 250)
  
• minor map and dialog fixes

Can you go to Documents\My Games\Underrail and post one of the crashlogs here?

This is usually the cause. It's not supposed to be, but I think sometimes windows anti-virus will prevent the game from writing there.

The soundtrack is almost universally praised. Josh did an outstanding job.

General / Re: Why was Spearhead nerfed? Sniper builds are hardly OP.

« on: July 30, 2020, 02:35:45 pm »

Having Spearhead be able to naturally attack twice every turn made other snipers quite subpar. As someone noticed, Spearhead has other benefits, such as being able to move and shoot without penalty with Strafe. At one point I will take a closer look at each frame and, if I find Spearhead lacking, it might be buffed in another way.

I made changes to Shooting Spree specifically so that this nerf would not hit sniper builds overall too hard. It's very likely, even, that sniper builds are now more powerful than before.

Transition error logs should be generated in \Documents\My Games\Underrail. Post some of those if you can.

Fixed the headlight and engine.

Please don't post multiple unrelated bugs in the same thread, it's hard for us to track what's been fixed that way.

General / Re: Who exactly sells blueprint for new Psi inhalant?

« on: July 28, 2020, 07:37:02 am »

While both blueprints and components being added to relevant vendors is definitely welcomed, now there is a new problem:

Combined ingredients for a single inhalant cost 460, while the inhalant itself costs only 250.
Moreover, 160+ of that cost comes from oxygen tank and sponges -- ingredients you will have to buy.
So crafting inhalants (over just buying them) will either actively lose you money, or give rather tiny benefits.

Overall, feels like either oxygen tank cost needs to be lowered, blueprint yield increased or there should be (cheaper) a way to refill those oxygen tanks.

Except that Mindshrooms are basically free.

Suggestions / Re: Wording change on Kevlar items

« on: July 26, 2020, 09:37:19 am »

I think the problem Gortsby is talking about is not that people cannot apply percentage increase properly, but that it is not clear that the bonus applies for this item only, and not globally. Am I reading this correctly?

In this case I guess I could indicate the locality of the effect somehow.
