    Are some ports still changed ? (Maybe you could explain why they were moved ?)

    If any are still changed, consider it a bug. Many of them got accidentally reset to the default position during development.

    Lots of copy/paste typo in this patch: recieved → received ;)

    Can you please explain, how the current system works?
    Slimelung - infection.
    Is it random, could be triggered, even by one germ?

    Nice!!!!  No more exploiting the turbine with other things. Very nice!!!!  (I walk away sad (and very happy) that all my exploits are now trash.....)

    Wait, one exploit still (sortof) remains. I can still use this.

    Spoiler

     

     

    The infinite power loop bug should hopefully be easy to fix. I believe transformers are pulling power from dead batteries.  R9MX4 or @FIXBUGFIXBUGFIX even provided a dll to fix it.  This page should give you the details.

    Spoiler

     

    I'm guessing matter conversion and liquid duplication may take longer to fix (probably liquid duplication first, matter conversion last). Gotta get rid of those infinity stones (thanks @Sasza22)

    Spoiler

    For completeness, here is the pitcher pump cooling exploit link

    Some of the collected wisdom from others has disappeared, as R9MX4 appears to be deleting/hiding all the bug posts which he owns. Comments made in these posts are no longer viewable, and unfortunately I have been using the bug report forum for collecting evidence of these bugs. I hope you guys can still see the "hidden" posts.

    And it happens to often, too fast in my opinion. I play currently in very easy mode, to test the new features, without getting wiped out in 2 cycles.

    And even in this mode, i have a hard time, keeping the dupes healthy. They also get sick inside suits someimes. Thats insane. 

    But then, its a alpha-preview, they introduced something new, and the will make adjustements. Its just annoying at the moment, but thats okay. Nobody forced me to play the alpha ^^

    The old system was honestly more like a parasitic load system or radiation sickness. Once you break the threshold you suffer, until then you don't notice. The new system makes intuitive sense as a model for bacteria/viruses. Even small exposures can take get through your immune system.

    Mhh but that feels not so nice for me.
    Old immunity system was not perfect, but was understandable.
    When i order commands in a polluted area, all dupes stay there same time and it affects only one random dupe, without any warning (visible immunity data / similar), it tastes not so tasty, but sickness is still not a big deal in ONI.

    That is my impression. But now it can be cured! I had one Bubbles running around with it and never a decrease in time to heal. It is no longer lethal though.

    I'm very happy about most of the changes (except immunity change) so big THANK YOU for that. However i couldn't help to notice there are absolutely no performance updates this time. Last update helped a lot but we can't hide the fact that the game is still laggy AF after cycle 2000-ish. Performance goes rapidly down after building the jet suit station and even the best CPUs won't help long term.

    What would be nice is to have an option to completely disable reports (at the start of the game). This could help with the lag after each cycle and tbh ... most players probably don't care or don't know about the reports anyway. I do like them, but i would happily trade them for better performance.

    Another thing that "might" help with the lag is option to disable animation on buildings. When you have world that's completely dug out and half of it is industrial machines, each doing its own thing, i bet that must be quite taxing.

     

    P.S. standalone airlock building (with decontamination feature) would be much appreciated ;););););) like in real life :)

    And how long will not change the fixed temperature system? To be honest, it is very unpleasant that water falls into water sieve -16C, but it turns out 39.9C

    That's completely understandable because it's electrically powered building and so far the only way how to delete heat. polluted water is fine for early game cooling. Water sieve is one of the few things that is completely fine.

    it is at least not logical that whatever the temperature of the water purifier entering the outlet will be 39.9

    And thanks for pushing this (and the other fixes) before the weekend! Means I can play.

    This is a game of fiction. It is not based on reality. Logic has nothing to do with this. Logic takes the base-facts and derives things from them and one base axiom is the output temperature of the sieve. As the sieve is not constructed from components, it is an atom and hence can have whatever characteristics the developers like without breaking logic.

    How's that not logical ? don't you have a kettle at home ? water + electricity = heated water. And why would you ever put -16 degree water into a sieve ? Run it through some coal generators first and then when it's let's say 60-70 degrees run it through sieve and into the bathroom. Perfect system.

    I feel like Keli is wrapping my colony in figurative bubble wrap because they don't want me dupes to get hurt.  My dupe are big boys and girls, Klei, a bruised knee or runny nose won't kill 'em.

    A small change i would see for this upgrade is to assign the medical room's toilets to the room, so that only the sick dupe will use these toilets, i ususally build toilet in my room to get the bonus but i have to disable it because everytime a dupe is going to use these toilets even if it is further than the others.

    More things that attack you doesn't make have to make the game harder. 

    It clearly does because you would have to change your playstyle and focus from just building to building and defense. It would also restrict you from going everywhere immediately. you would have to prepare, think and make a plan how to conquer the whole asteroid.
