V0.9996 #6: Tool icons for every tier, Auto-Equip, German main windows and a cleaner main game
Every tier of every tool has its own icon now, made from the tool you hold. Auto-Equip picks the best tool for trees, rocks and digging, the Backpack, skill trees, Fishdex and settings are fully in German, Floppa Odyssey gets a world border in every area and a look pass, and the main menu runs smoother.
Tools and items
- Axe, pickaxe, shovel, hoe, sword and bow have their own icon for every tier (wood, stone, bronze, iron, gold and blackstone). Each icon is made from the 3D model you hold, so it shows the same shape and metal.
- New setting Auto-Equip Best Tool (on by default, under the Floppaland game mode settings): when you use a tree, rock, fossil or fishing spot, the best fitting tool in your Backpack is equipped for you.
- Without the right tool, the rock's own floating label says "Pickaxe needed" instead of a box on the screen.
Main game
- The Traveling Merchant no longer pops up a message when it arrives.
- Crafting Table: you can only place it on your home island, the camera no longer jumps when you pick it, and you can jump while placing.
- The Distance Fog switch works right away (no restart needed), and every on/off switch in the settings works in every language.
- Chopping and mining windows use the game font, are fully translated, and long lines shrink to fit. Your character walks round the trunk instead of getting stuck in it.
Main menu
- The residents in the Floppatopia preview walk forwards (no more walking backwards).
- While a game mode preview fills the screen, the island behind it stops drawing, so the menu runs smoother.
Floppa Odyssey
- Every area now has a world border round its edge, also the ones that didn't have one yet.
- Sunshell Bay: the sea has no hard light and dark line any more where the bay ends, and the roof of the grotto has grass on it.
- Croaker Swamp: the water is darker with a wet shine, so it no longer looks like grass.
German
- The main game windows are fully in German: Backpack tabs, the skill trees (Angeln, Holzfäller, Bergbau, Bogen, Nahkampf, Spielerstufe), the Fishdex, the pause menu and the settings.
- Armor names are proper German words (Holzhelm, Goldstiefel, Eisen-Brustpanzer), Iron Ore is Eisenerz, and the Fishdex buttons no longer overlap.
For testers
- New console command logs: opens the folder with the game's log files. If multiplayer crashes, send these files. The multiplayer log is now saved after every line, so it survives a crash.
- New console command spawnrate: changes how many enemies and camps spawn (1.0 is normal).
Website
- The Items page is the crafting list too: rarity, value and the full recipe (materials, level, where to craft it and the blueprint) on every item. Every tool tier shows its own icon.
- The Gear page shows each item's in-game icon next to the 3D model.
