Update 1.0.6.1 (17 December 2019)
Hello Nomads,
We've just released the 1.0.6.1 version to the public branch, so everyone can now use our new Tech Tree and improved Creative mode.
Here is recap of all changes:
1.0.6.0:
New features - Blocks
- added new blocks - armor and glass pieces
- rearranged all blocks into more cateogories, according to their intended usage (bases, vehicles, cargo,...)
- added a Tech Tree view (switch button in top right corner in the Block Catalog) - displays all in-game blocks, even locked ones with the lock reason (ie. by quest etc.)
New features - Creative
- added welding & cutting of blocks into the Creative Mode - with Multitool you can create "unfinished" states of blocks, with a block equipped, you delete blocks by one click (as you are used to)
- possible to use other tools - Block Mover, Weapon, Scanner - you need to set them to some key in keybinding in options, as there are no inventory in Creative
New features - Building
- added keyboard modifier for building "in the air" - it's now possible to build ungrounded blocks
- faster block coloring (mainly in Creative)
Bugfixes
- temporary switch from 1st person to 3rd person close-up if camera is behind the wall - to prevent looking "through the wall"
- fixed colliders on Hinge joints - reduced unnecessary vibrations in extreme positions
- fixed graphical glitch with weather - roofing does not influence fog appearance anymore
- fixed some overflows in HDR post-processing - hopefully eliminated the "black ink smearing" bug
- fixed blocked Quests functionality (in case player exited the Drop Pod too early)
- tutorial: removed direct block equip of a block without using Hotbar (a little advanced feature for newcomers, could lead to deadlock in tutorial)
- tutorial: removed altimeter from cockpit UI
1.0.6.1
- added colorization masks to small glass blocks and top parts of cockpits
- fixed saving of block weld state in creative
- Tutorial: lowered distance limit for dynamic light shadows (performance fix)
- Tutorial: fixed bug with crouch (tutorial was impossible to finish sometimes)
- Block Catalog: changed default filter to "ALL" and added scrolling up on open
- Tools/Weapon: fixed switching to wrong tool by mapped keys
- Block Mover: fixed graphic glitch (mainly after starting/loading the game)
- Thermoregulator: fixed non-working state if loaded game in cockpit
- Bug Reporter: fixed not sending logfiles (changed paths for new Unity log file locations), also added sending of previous log file
Update 1.0.5.6 (17 October 2019)
Hello Nomads,
We've just released the 1.0.5.6 version from the Experimental branch to public.

Update 1.0.4.4 (25 July 2019)
Hello Nomads,
Our contest on the occasion of 50th anniversary of Apollo 11 mission has ended and we've released the new update (version 1.0.4.4) that hides it's assets from the main menu. You can also see the results in our blog post[www.planet-nomads.com].

Update 1.0.4.3 (18 July 2019)

Reverting back to 0.9.0.4
Hello Nomads,
We are very sorry about it but our last two updates introduced more troubles than improvements, so we decided to roll back to 0.9.0.4 release.
We need some more time to put things in order. Now, we are unsure if we'll find solution to Unity 2018 related bugs or need to stick with an old version of Unity forever.
Patch 0.9.1.1
Hello Nomads,
You've probably noticed problems with cursor not locking in the last release. It's a known bug in Unity 2018.1, so we build today update with Unity 2018.2 and added some tweaks. It should be better now, but far from ideal. It also means that game will run even when minimized - it's a side effect of that workaround.
Also on Linux, there was a problem with duplicating letters in input boxes, that should be also fixed by this release.
However, we've noticed that some textures in game are currently pixelated a little bit, we know about it but don't know the reason. But we'll try to fix it soon.
One last change in this release is that we've updated our block shader to new API, and now blocks aren't so dark as in the last release.
Patch 0.9.1.0 (13 July 2018)
Hello Nomads,
Current update does not bring new features, it's just "under the hood" improvements - this is the first time we built the game with new engine - Unity 2018.1. We do not use the full potential yet, we've just managed to fix all the code and compile it. In the next weeks we look on what could be made better with new Unity features.
As it is very big change in the engine, some bugs may appear and we are ready to fix them soon, just let us know on the forum if you experience any. Thanks for your patience.

- fixed music that was muted after diving/emerging
- made mouse wheel bindable in options
- added bindable hotkey to hide/show HUD
