Update 28-2 - Crews Fixes & FPS view update
Wed, 1 April


Hey Everyone,

We have a second smaller update today that fixes a few critical issues. Crews, Territory Hubs and horse camera issues have all been fixed. This update also brings major changes to FPS view with various improvements. Aside from that a dozen other good fixes and additions.

Work continues on Part II of the Colossal update – that we are expecting later next week, ~7-10 days away. Unfortunately, part two of this update will come with a full progress wipe. This will be a necessary wipe as we are switching to a completely new SQL database. This move finally allows us to fix all issues with missing items, vehicles e.t.c. It also opens up possibility of MMO like super high population limits. And finally, this switch guarantees that we will not need to wipe progress in the future.

Meanwhile, lets take a look at today`s Update 28-2

CRITICAL BUG FIXES

•   All issues with creating new crews have now been fixes
•   Major rework of FPS camera view, much better and shows body more
•   In FPS view interaction with objects e.t.c now looks significantly better
•   Fixed issues with territory hubs purchases not saving
•   Fixed major issue with getting on a horse and camera not moving


VARIOUS CHANGES AND ADDITIONS

•   Sawing objects will now hide outline while sawing
•   No longer show object outline once interaction with object has begun
•   Fixed sawing log FX not showing properly
•   Harvesting plants now has visual effects and branches fall off
•   All rocks in-game are now breakcable, including crystals, nox rocks e.t.c
•   Fix for delete character not removing claim slots.
•   various fixes and changes in the way a crew is created
•   Removed the notification when getting in a vehicle

Upcoming Update 29
15 April 2020

Hey Everyone,

As you might have heard we are working on a huge update 29 that brings brand new MMO like database. So we wanted to give you some updates on our progress and ETA.

First of all - we are a bit behind here. This update took us extra couple of weeks to complete, but we are finally getting close. As soon as this Friday, or latest mid of next week this update will go into open Beta. With full launch to live few days later.

On a bright side - with this delay we managed to compete a lot of other side projects while the lead and server programmer were finishing up. So this update comes with major fixes like reworked AI behavior, to new features like private property and stealing , as well as new feature support like voice chat, controller support, preparation for dedicated hosting utlity, and a lot of other good stuff.

To recap - the main part of this update is a switch to a brand new SQL MMO database. This move finally allows us to fix all issues with missing items, vehicles e.t.c. It also opens up possibility of MMO like super high population limits in the future.

Unfortunately, this update will come with a full progress wipe on all servers. This will be a necessary wipe as we are switching to a completely new database. However - this is a "wipe to end all wipes" and in the future we`ll have a lot of database porting options, so we probably won`t need to do another wipe again.

Once again we wanted to apologize for the delay, but we are almost there.

Thanks for your support, and we can`t wait to share this awesome update with you.

Update 29 - Full Redesign - enters Beta testing
Fri, 8 May 2020

Hey Everyone,

After several months of work, we are finally here - ready to start beta testing the massive update 29. Update is now available in Beta on Steam. We plan to bring the update live after about 1 week in beta.

This update is a full redesign of Stars End. Starting from switching from server based game to SQL powered MMO, and ending with full visual rework of the main playable area.

Please keep in mind - that this update does come with a full progress wipe, that was unavoidable with the change to new database and MMO approach. However, now we have everything in place to avoid progress wipes in the future.

Also please keep in mind - that the process of hosting and solo play is a temporary solution, that requires some work on your part. Installing SQL and creating a login for it. All the instructions are linked from the Host section in the main menu. We apologize for the inconvenience. This process will be streamlined and simplified in the future.

How to Play

To enable Beta version of Stars End, please follow the following steps:
-Right clicking on Stars End in the Steam library
-Select Properties, and then Beta tab.
-On that screen Opt-in to participate in the beta.
Beta has it`s own MMO PvPvE server that keeps all the progress and will not be reset. Once this update goes live, you can switch to official MMO servers and make a new character, or continue to pay on beta.

And so - introducing update 29 - beta 1:

The change-log comes with couple of thousands changes, so bellow is the summary and not the actual detailed patch notes.

SWITCH TO MMO AND SQL

•   Bellow changes required a full progress wipe
•   MMO switch – changed from two official servers to two main MMO servers
•   New SQL database features make sure there`s no need for progress wipes in the future
•   Completely new database powered by MySQL capable of supporting very large playerbase on one server
•   Hosting Dedicated servers redesigned, and requires payer to install SQL
•   Solo Play is still possible, but requires hosting new server, after installing SQL
•   Solo Play and Dedicated Hosting process is to be simplified in the near future
•   New database eradicates majority of bugs effecting Stars End over the past few months
•   New database cuts loading time from up to 3 minutes to as low as 20 seconds


MAJOR VISUAL UPDATE

•   Started work on the major visual updated effecting every area of the game
•   Beta Prairie planet is the first to get completely redesigned
•   New grass, new trees and plants, new rocks, higher resolution textures
•   Planet now has defined bi-oms with different plants, trees, and animals
•   FPS camera reworked
•   TPS camera improved with lowest point and transparent grass


MAJOR NEW FEATURES

•   Added voice chat with proximity chat
•   Initial gamepad support implements – still needs a bit of work
•   Private property implemented, with loot and containers in some locations being private
•   Implemented stealing and outlaw system for being caught stealing
•   Outlaw Deed and Shady merchants available at Orbital stations to help get rid of Outlaw status
•   Various resources are now available on the ground to pick up – rocks, sticks, fiber e.t.c
•   Animal AI redesigned – fixing number of issues and making Bears, Thrawlers, Oraphangs much smarter
•   Enabled sneaking around Ais or animals field of vision
•   Email signup added to the main menu, with reward item for signing up with valid email


BUG FIXES AND MINOR ADDITIONS

Update 29th - Coming to Live on Thursday
Tue, 19 May 2020

Hey Everyone,

We are putting finishing touches on the major 29th update that everyone has been waiting for a very long time now. And we are glad to say that after a number of delays this update is finally coming Live this Thursday.

We are down to two last issues to fix - passengers in vehicles, and a bug with new AI, making it turn sideways.

And please accept our apology for all the delays - and keeping it in beta for such a long time. But having worked on this update for so long, we fear we might get very bad feedback if this update is anything less than perfect.

We are almost there, and next update on Thursday will not go to beta, but straight to live. I would love to promise it today or tomorrow, but to be safe - we`ll only launch this on Thursday afternoon.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

New features and fixes

•   Added solo mode - with one click singleplayer game start
•   Solo mode doesn`t require mySQL to play
•   Fixed major issue where players completing prologue would be re-spawned at Tigon instead of Beta Prairie

You will also notice that the old outdated Prologue has been removed – it`s missions can still be accessed from Tigon Orbital station though.

We also have a new brief intro sequence and that`s also activated when you die - and have your clone drop to the planet in an escape pod.

Keep in mind that with update of this magnitude, we might have introduced some new issues, but these would be quick to fix, and we expect next update by Monday next week that will polish up this update with last fixed.

After this major update we are back to weekly and bi-weekly updates, with big projects out of the way, we can finally work on smaller fixed, balancing, polish and new content.

•   Controller mapping greatly improvement
•   Added Brightness to the options
•   Added mouse sensitive to the options
•   Improved orbital mining with nav points and asteroid improvements

Update 35 this Saturday - Fixes and Massive Redesign
Wed, 29 July 2020

Hey Everyone,

We are glad to see the new update 34 brought some very well needed changes, and fixes. Thanks for all the kind words and great feedback.

But as some of you have noticed there`s still a couple of bugs we need to iron out. For example with the items inside the Wooden Boxes - this is just a temporary problem, and once we release the 35th update this Saturday morning - everything will be back in place.

Also we can`t wait to share the new graphics and planet surface update with you this Saturday. We have been busy working in the new tech into the game, that allows us to have hundreds of trees in the area, instead of a dozen like in the current design. Same tech will be used for all sort of props, vegetations e.t.c

This is a low quality preview from the Unity Editor



This update also greatly improves performance.

Thanks for your patience with the couple of ongoing issues, and we can`t wait to share this new update with you in a couple of days.

Hey Everyone,

Today we have a smaller follow up update, that fixes some of the leftover bugs from the last update. These bugs including not seeing items in wooden boxes, having empty claims around and not being able to properly remove vehicles in the info screen.

Unfortunately, with this update we had to revert the database back couple of days. We are deeply sorry about the lost progress over this weekend.

This update also completes the game`s translation into French, German, Russian and Chinese.

And we hope we can make up for the revert with the major upcoming update this Tuesday. We have been busy working in the new tech into the game, that allows us to have hundreds of trees in the area, instead of a dozen like in the current design. Same tech will be used for all sort of props, vegetation e.t.c. This update will now only make the game world look much better, but greatly improve the performance.

•   Fixed rare bug being unable to pass through airlock doors
•   Fixed being able to fly through some of the asteroids in the asteroid belts
•   Various adjustments and fixes to navigation points to minable asteroids
•   Rebalanced bullet damage making necessary fixes – in most cases reducing the damage
•   The booster ful now runs out much faster, but still enough to cross between planet with 1 fuel
•   Fixed common container error due to player not in same relativeArea.
•   Fixed common error with POIs resulting in trees or terrain loading at odd points
•   Fix for error when player has disconnected while picking up a vehicle.

Update 36 - Last Daily Update
Tue, 4 August 2020

Hey Everyone,

We would like to apologize for several daily updates over the past few days. With 3Gbs download for each update, this has been overwhelming to players with limited internet connections.

Now that we are finally done with all the critical fixes, we can switch to weekly updates, and today`s update fixes the last of game breaking issues.

We will continue with the massive 37th update within a week, this update will include major changes to the planet graphics, style, and huge leap forward in performance. Sorry for a bit of a delay with this update - but it needs some extra polish, and well - we do need to give our playerbase a break from large daily downloads.

•   Fixed issues with game world looking extremely bad on all but Very High graphical settings
•   Improved the look of Nav Point - smaller and more stylized
•   Improved Russian Translation of the game
•   Fixed Mechs not doing any damage to the player
•   Fixed a dupe with building components sometimes being added twice to inventory
•   Fixed being unable to move on space stations
•   Fixed extremely weird gravity while on NOX moon

Update 37 - More Polish
Fri, 7 August 2020

Hey Everyone,

And we are back with another update. There were a dozen more fixes and improvements we wanted to add to the game before we release the big terrain and visual update next week. Today`s update fixes a few annoying issues like bow, info vehicle screen exploits, issues with claims and a few other things.

Next week - we will finally bring you the massive 38th update that we`ve been teasing about for a while now. That update will include major changes to the planet graphics, style, and huge leap forward in performance.

Thanks for your continuous support, and meanwhile, lets look at the fixes in today`s Update 37:

Fixes and Additions
•   Fixed major bug with some of the spawn points making player unable to exit spawn escape pod
•   Fixed major issue with bow freezing after using the last arrow
•   Increased fuel per container for land and air vehicles.
•   Claim component damage fixed where it was randomly destroying components in a single shot.
•   Fixed an issue where Death Loot did not remove after it expired.
•   Changed PvP so that repair tools (repair hammer, grazer) work correctly on claims and vehicles. (The grazer no longer heals players in the same crew.)
•   Vehicle INFO now updates correctly and placing the Used Vehicle restores equipment, stats, and inventory. Selling the Used Vehicle pays out less than a new vehicle, and destroys the inventory and equipment.
•   Fixed some item handling bugs that were causing random incorrect items, errors, and players unable to log into the game.
•   Fixed claim placement and removal issues. Claim markers and components no longer dupe.
•   Metal doors and sleeping bags now take damage and can be repaired.
•   Territory Refinery works now and has been adjusted in size for player "comfort of use".
•   Fixed the issue with claim count not showing the correct number of claims a player has.
•   Changed the asteroid system for better looks and performance.
