A new ship!
Encyclopedia Explosica » Devlog
A new ship for all you lonely sailors out there
A feature that was often noted as missing - what if I'm playing alone, how can I do that? Well, the plain answer was - with difficulty. The existing ships were meant for crews of several, and even the ideal lowest crew count was 3 people.
No longer! Now you'll be able to get yourself a nice, nippy (although quite breakable, watch out!)...dingy ship!
So what we got?
- Ships 🚢
- New ship! Get 'The Lone Wolf' from all existing spawn points 🎡!
- Cannot be spawned in a party, it's yours alone!
- It's equipped with 1 frontal cannon, that you control at the same time as your ship!
- Aim the Cannon 💣by moving your Mouse 🖱️ around.
- Sail the Ship 🚢 by using the Arrow Keys 🔼🔽◀️▶️
- Fire by holding (as previously) Spacebar ⌨️ or by holding your Left Mouse 🖱️ button.

- Questions❔
- Apparently, I did not make it known (sorry folks), but questions can be skipped! And now it's both obvious and there's an extra way to do so!
- a) Type /skip into your challenge chat, to skip a question, or;
- b) Press the new shiny 'Skip' button found on top of the question panels!

- Gameplay 🎮
- Cannons now have a small semi-transparent beam, to help visualize your aiming direction. Visible only to yourselves.
- WASD ⌨️ keys disabled for controlling a ship. They never should've been an option to begin with (since they have actions bound to them and are used for typing as well). Use your Arrow Keys 🔼🔽◀️▶️!
- Camera 🎥
- Now has a visible UI element showing its locked🔒 / unlocked 🔓 state ('F' Key ⌨️ to toggle)
- Your mouse now also has the same function! Especially useful on the one man ship! Press Right Mouse 🖱️ button to lock🔒 / unlock 🔓 your mouse 🖱️ cursor.
- Others 🗒️
- Submitting answers is now also possible with your numpad's Enter/Return ⌨️.
- Removed collisions from objects that have shown to be able to make a ship problematically stuck.
- Mysteriously unmoving sharks 🦈now moving again.
- Settings panel duplicate resolutions (from having multiple screens 🖥️), discarded.
