lore: chapter 1 and 2 are now somewhere in the game
lore is the same for all difficulty levels
testing mode and custom are now locked by default until you reach chapter 1
or just hack the game to skip the lore and enable testing and custom
localSettings.loreCount = Infinity;
localStorage.setItem("localSettings", JSON.stringify(localSettings));
bug fix: performance greatly improved on drawing multiple duplicated power ups
damage immunity graphic is more obvious
difficulty mode no longer increases after killing final boss (it was too confusing)
tech: Higgs mechanism - you can't move when firing, reduce harm by 60% when firing
removed Galilean group
removed gun flechettes
removed critical bifrication
removed railroad ties
removed incendiary (for nail gun)
nail gun:
needle gun: accurate, piercing mobs, fire 3 at a time
rivet gun: accurate, ballistic arc, doesn't use much ammo
tech: bigger rivets (9x stack)
all nails
radioactive 2s tick (about 70% damage increase)
0.5s full tick
4s longer tick
critical hits -> explosion (from flechettes)
health background finally updates to show max health changes
tech: rest frame is removed
tech: inertial frame - gain 66% fire rate, but you can't fire when moving
tech: dead reckoning - when at rest do 33% more damage
requires inertial frame
tech: Galilean group - when at rest take 50% less harm
requires inertial frame
tech: antiscience - 100% damage, but lose 11 health when you pick up a tech
tech: laser widebeam + output coupler can now stack up to 9x (was 1x)
but it not longer works with tech: slow light propagation
tech: active cooling - 15% faster fire rate for each gun in your inventory
tech: specialist - spawn a random power up for each gun in your inventory
(not available in custom, requires tech: generalist)
tech: complex spin-statistics - become immune to harm for 1s every 7s
requires Pauli exclusion
even less difficulty ramp after killing final boss
reroll renamed -> research
spore damage increased 25%
ice IX has it's damage buffed by 50%, and freeze effect lasts 2s (up from 1s)
ice IX is no longer a gun
but you can still get it for nano-scale field (and it's pretty strong)
tech: heavy water was removed
tech: correlated damage - duplication chance also gives % damage
(also added some minor nerfs to other duplication tech for balance)
fixed some math on laser tech: diffraction grating and slow light propagation
they were giving too much damage
flechettes are slightly improved in: ammo, damage, fire rate
tech - MIRV can now stack up to 9 bonus missiles
removed tech - recursive missiles
tech: cruise missile - 50% larger size, but travels 50% slower
tech: missileBot - requires gun: missiles
updated in game console style and all messages to match real game commands
new names inline with lore, mod -> tech, game -> simulation
this is probably going to cause many minor bugs, so let me know what you find
new reroll display in power up selection
tech: rocket-propelled now works with all grenade tech
