Update #7

Survive Together

Survive Together is a 2D world simulator where players are thrown into the many perils of nature, and together, overcome them to build a thriving empire.

[u][b]Item Guides, Roads, Full Screen Mode, HUD Update & Helpful Tips Menu![/b][/u] - The item guide is finally complete. You can now hover the mouse over any object and press "G" to bring up a detailed menu about the item. These menus will explain how to create the item, what the item is used for, it's stack limits, etc. You can also navigate to other item guides by clicking on the images within an existing guide. Hovering over the items in a guide will also show you the name of the item. You can also access this menu by pressing "H" while holding an item. Roads are also now working. By using a stone hammer on a rock, you can turn the rock into rubble. Then you can collect the rubble with a basket, and place it over a road blueprint to create a road. The road blueprints will appear in phases, and dropping rubble on a non-blueprint tile will simply drop the rubble to the ground. Later on as player towns become more free-form, the leader of the town will be able to decide which tiles can be turned into roads. Roads are used to help identify the separations in the town (different homes and buildings for example) but also give a small boost to speed when walked on. Eventually other towns will be able to ally with your town, and road connections can be built between the two which can establish automated travel. Full screen mode is also now an option, by pressing either F11 or CTRL + F. Going beyond 1920x1080 resolution might result in issues, but I'll eventually address this. This mode gives you the largest view of the game, at 18x11 tiles. The HUD has also been updated, as the left panel that shows information such as health, thirst and hunger have been polished to be more compact, change color as the bar depletes, show their labels only when the mouse is over the left panel and also added two new buttons. The first button is the same as pressing the ESC button, and will bring up the in game settings menu. The second button will show a menu that contains helpful information, such as hotkeys and commands. Below is a list of the specific changes. [u][b]Additions[/b][/u] [list] [*]Added full screen mode (toggled with F11 or CTRL-F). [*]Added 6 more desert tiles, previously 1. [*]Added a static IP to the main server.

[*]Added AI leader ability to automatically adjust task limits for the town. [*]Added stone roads. Roads give a bonus to speed when traversed on. Roads will also serve as a way to organize the town as well (separating houses, shops, etc). [*]Added stone road building layouts. Now while holding a basket of rubble, the material used to make roads, you'll be able to see a transparent blueprint over the land tiles where the next set of roads needs to be built. Once that section of road is built, a new section will appear while holding a basket of rubble. This will make it so that road sections must be finished before moving on, so that random road tiles aren't scattered around everywhere. [*]Added road construction. You can now pour a basket of rubble over a tile that needs a road, and it will create a road, leaving you with an empty basket. [*]Added basket of rubble image. [*]Added rubble image. [*]Added rubble collection in the basket. You can now pick up rubble with a basket. [*]Added rubble crafting. You can now hit a rock with the stone hammer to create rubble. [*]Added the item guide. Now if you're holding an item and press H, it will open a screen showing you the details about that item such as maximum stack size, how much hunger it restores, a short description and a pictorial representation of all the potential transformations.
