No, no, Blaze is right. We have to breed the Throwing Bat.

I was thinking of Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath version i.e. Boombats.

But hey, the ability to breed ammo, what could possibly go wrong?

Someone once (forgive me for being too lazy to look up the thread) had the idea of themed cities.  This one is radioactive, this one is plant-overrun, this one is a ghost town, etc.  I like this idea a lot and will probably implement it at some point.

Hmm. That sounds either like my Expanded Map Features or Jawn's Pipedream Idea: City/Town Themes.

Judging by reports I'm getting regarding the rewritten crafting system, there are still some pretty major problems. Crafting is still using up entire stacks when it should only use one item (e.g. cooking meat), and apparently making coffee uses up the container you're supposed to put it in.

Whales, when we get NPCs eventually, will we be able to witness one NPC robbing another? I like the thought of shouting "I AM BATMAN" and stomping a thief.
Bonus points if you only use unarmed, dress up as the Caped Crusader, and throw bats :P
Even more bonus points if we're able to gene-engineer to make it literal.

Baseball bats would be more fun.
That's actually what I meant.  :P

Strangers Wrath for the fucking WIN!

Seemed a tad short, however...

The former was a problem with inventories; fixed!
The latter is a bad recipe; it's fixed now.

As usual, your bugfix response time is well-appreciated by impatient jerks such as myself. Kudos!

I'm curious to know what the next major update might be.

Major capital-M Major?  Working NPCs and some big changes to your starting situation.  Rudimentary missions.  An actual game taking form instead of a sandbox.

A bug involving the "Electromagnetic unit" bionic: apparently it can pull items through walls.
One can pull CBMs out from behind the unsmashable reinforced glass in science labs.

That's  a bit of a chicken and egg situation, though. if you could hack your way through the first, why not do it through the rest?

Besides, all places except the motherlode have pretty much the same basic array of bionics anyway

(granted, some of those are among the most versatile in the game.

Well, there's a also mapping bug that makes doors sometimes appear behind the glass.

That and an alarm will go off even if you successfully hack it open.

Man, it would be cool if you had bandits... who wear plague masks and wield flamethrowers. And try to burn the virus away. And live in churches.
