Dear colonists, we’re glad to announce the update 0.12.4. We began a thorough redesign of combat profession system, and this update already has some of the new features. List of changes: [b]Combat profession and abilities[/b]

• In anticipation of the profession system changes we removed the ultimate slot from profession tree, and replaced it with the regular “rank 7” slot. This means the abilities placed in this slot don’t get special form but rather become stronger.

• Former ultimates of Kick and Dodge became separate abilities - Shockwave and Onslaught respectively.

• There are two new passive abilities in the game now - Heat and Traveler. Take notice that strength of passive abilities do not depend on the slot rank. Later we will make separate slots dedicated for passive abilities. Recharge ability has been changed. Instead of instantly replenish the shield it will gradually regenerate it over time.

• A new vendor arrived at Outpost Delta. You can retrieve any ability item from him for no cost.

[b]Options menu[/b]

• Options menu has appeared in the game. You can configure video and audio there. Other options are coming later.

[b]Bug fixes and improvements[/b]

• The problem with placing constructions near other constructions has been fixed.

• The Incinerate effect has been slightly nerfed.
