Devlog Update 216

Garret added two nice new path styles:

And we made it so these new paths (and some of the existing old ones) can be recolored, so you’ll have much more options for path styles now :)

Devlog Update 215

The audio team from A Shell In The Pit has been working on another bigger audio update for a while. Rachel has been adding some new sounds and fine-tuning volumes of existing ones, and Maris has been working on removing the weird pops and cut-off sounds we sometimes had. There’s also stereo sound now, making everything sound a bit less “flat”, and some more subtle crowd sounds. They’ll keep tweaking, but generally everything sounds a bit nicer now. Here’s a quick video to give an impression:

We added a new utility building! The Trash Chute is a small and relatively cheap way to quickly transport trash bags to the trash dump. It needs to be connected to the Deliveries Building with the transport pipes.

So far trash bags could also be dropped at the Depot. We’ll probably remove that.

All build windows minimize now to get out of the way while you’re building something, like the deco window already did:

There’s also this new “slide in” animation when the window minimizes. This is not just for aesthetics. I oftentimes noticed people got confused where the deco window went after it instantly minimized and thought they need to re-open it. This quick animation should make it a bit more clear what happens with the window and that it’s still there.

Utility building doors finally received animations.
