Odd Realm Dev Tracker

Hello!

Today's patch focuses on some performance issues. Hopefully you see an improvement when playing this new build. That said, I still have a few more things I need to improve before this is running at the level I want. I know there are GPU bound issues and next week I'm going to finish those up. Anyone running on a machine with a weak GPU will be running into this one. I noticed that some save times are a bit long. Will take a look at this too!

A few people have mentioned how overpowered cages and traps are. You *should* notice a difference in this build because the trigger will now take into account the target's evasion rating. The higher the evasion o...

Does it not show up in your libarary and when you search, 'odd realm,' in the store? Can you go to the store page and see the 'play now' button? You might need to contact steam directly if it continues. Or try finding the game in your games folder and delete it, then restart steam to get it to re-download.

Many windows do have search functionality, though, I agree it's not obvious. I'll add some icon to a window that has it to help indicate that it's there. Currently, at the bottom of the screen is the search bar. It shows a label for the focused UI element that can be searched. You can click it or hold shift to enter text to filter things or find settlers. I will be adding this search feature to most UI windows, but it does take time to get through them all.

Ya, that's true.

Thanks! I agree that their current generation method isn’t great but I don’t think they need to generate at game start. Even if they did you’d still come across them while digging. Instead I just need to give a big buffer between the cave and your mine. Plus I need to keep them from spawning so frequently.

Right now, it's about the same no matter where you plant your crops.

You can type to search in that second screenshot. Just hold shift and type in the name.

Happy Friday/Saturday everyone!

This patch was initially just going to be some tuning and bug fixes, but, last night, I spent an hour adding in two new rooms, the Vault, and the Market. Like you, I get frustrated by where the merchant items spawn, so I thought I would remedy that with these rooms.

Market

This room is needed for merchants to visit your settlement. Any items bought from the merchant will be spawned here, unless there's no room, in which case the items will spawn at the merchant. In the future, I am going to have merchants stick around in the settlement and hang out at the market, instead of leave immediately after a trade. That way, p...
