Hey Islanders,
A new patch is now available on the Evrima Public Branch. Thank you to everyone that participated in our latest hordetest. To spare you all a novel-length read, we’ve trimmed the changelog down to the highlights. A list of known-issues will be updated and posted in a few days.
You may need to restart your Steam client if the update is not immediately available to download.
Changelog for Patch 0.21.321:
Added Tyrannosaurus
RMB - Muzzle Swing
A light attack capable of knocking down smaller targets
Hold RMB - Heavy Muzzle Swing
A heavy attack capable of knocking down or killing smaller targets and staggering similar sized animals
Hold LMB - Crush
A powerful attack that sends the tyrannosaurus lunging forward with a powerful bite and fracture damage. This can pin and execute smaller or wounded targets, or stagger similar sized animals Spacebar (After achieving subadult) - Ambush Ambush will give you a temporary increase to your sprint speed before going on a moderate cooldown. Useful to help catch prey that will soon outpace you Hold F and press 1 or RMB (After achieving adult) - "Paleo" Vocals Tyrannosaurus possesses some unique audio for generic and broadcast calls as an adult. There is no special use for this yet. It's just for fun LMB/RMB - Directional Attacks Tyrannosaurus possesses primary and secondary directional attacks. Primary attacks are standard bites. Secondary attacks are less lethal but medium hitting muzzle swings RMB (After crushing a target) - Throw Throw a target in the direction you're looking. This will always kill them
Added Allosaurus
Hold LMB (While Running) - Claw Swipe A medium attack that deals heavy bleed. This can also move the allosaurus slightly in the direction its looking to close distance for the attack
Hold RMB and Release - Pounce
Allosaurus latches on to a target, dealing increasing damage and bleed over time
Updated Pteranodon
Automatic (Run off a ledge) - Ledge Flight Enter flight automatically by running off the edge of a surface Double Press Ctrl (During Flight) - Barrel Roll Spin down into a dive or just show off Z (During Flight) - Air Brake Depending on how fast a player is going, quickly braking and using turn will drastically increase your turn rate at the cost of some momentum RMB (While over mud or a water surface) - Spearfishing Only usable during the day, this will cause the pteranodon to enter a stance to lure fish or clams nearby. When a target is highlighted, press LMB to catch them. If you catch a clam, press LMB when on a hard surface like rock to throw a clam down to open it Carnotaurus Headbutt is now activated by holding RMB and pressing LMB while held. This can be activated while standing or running and depending on charge time, can knock down or stagger targets depending on their comparative size
Added Elder life stage
At 100% growth, players are eligible to Entomb. This kills your current animal and respawns you again as a fresh spawn of the same species. Mutations from the previous life are kept and their benefits are enhanced, as well as letting you choose more mutations to benefit your animal
Adjusted new menu and in-game HUD (WIP)
