[Game Update] - 358029

[Jason 3,688]

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed the missing hound sounds
• Reduced the amount of Seastacks and improved their world gen layout (this will be retrofitted into existing worlds)
• Fixed the mouse not being able to click near the top of tall objects (like the Mast) while in certain locations in the world
• Improved handling if the player is interrupted while hopping onto a boat.
• Platform hopping is now blocked if a blocker object is in the way of the hopping path.
• Bees no longer plant flowers in the ocean.
• Fixed a bug with the sail raising that cause the player to walk or use something behind the sail instead of “heave ho”ing on the second pull. 
• Added Seastack art variation.

Well, my dedicated server is simply unreachable since the last update, I can't even see it in the Browse menu even after many restarts, didn't had this on other updates so I guess something's wrong for now on this last one...

One of the rocks looks like a dolphin.

entire Beta branch is devoid of all Dedi servers including mine, there is one dedi online only and i wonder what they did to make it work...

Thanks! Honestly I like the original sea stack design the best. They looked more deadly. These just look like blobs of mud.

[CameoAppearance 962]

I liked the pointy, blue-toned sea stack design myself, but at least these new variations look a little less like turds.

In honour of the seastack menace being banished, may I present to you an adventure I had with the old seastacks-for-days worldgen:

(I was demonstrating smashable seastacks for my friends.)

I was able to host my server just fine - but I see that it's one of the only three dedicated servers currently on the server browser. I launch mine from the same directory as my DST game on Steam, could that be it?

They look less deadly because they are less deadly. They were nerfed last update.

So map makers can now block the edge of their custom map's land with basalt walls so people can't just boat off it? Neat!

Maybe they'll come to life later on?

The current ones make me think of shadowy cave rocks.

like They're reaching up to pull down the Moon

So I have to restructure my folders or is this temporary? seems like some path selection options in klei-provided server hosting files are broken?

...oh, I knew I'd seen similar down there somewhere.

 

Almost the same color as the Atrium pillar...where the shadows are at their deepest.
Some features in common with the slimy variant, as well.

I can't remember exactly what shade of blue the original DST Sea Stacks were, but I noticed that the normal Cave Pillars have a blue shade, as well. Might be onto some design decision here...?
