Dust Fleet v4.11

Apr 29

Welcome to Monday, commanders. Here's the patch notes for the latest Dust Fleet update addressing some feedback from the community.

CHANGES

The flak turret now only requires a light turret port instead of a medium.

FIXES

Some ships captured during missions may not respond to orders. This is fixed for future occurrances, but any affected ships in saved games will remain affected.
Destroyed squadron fighters being immediately rebuilt with low health upon docking, instead of waiting for other ships to complete build/repair first.
Captured ships continue their attack orders on allied ships until given a new order.
Allied ships continue attack orders on captured ships until given a new order.
Holding right mouse button to pan the camera when a cutscene starts results in the camera pan still being active afterwards, until the right mouse button is pressed again.
Tokara loadout has heavy missile launchers when it only has ports for medium. Tokara's default loadout now changed to use medium missiles. Note that these are much stronger against frigates than the heavy missiles.
Using chaff opens pop-up camera view notification.

Patch notes are always available on Discord[discord.gg], but for commanders who don't use it, I'll leave you with a round up of other recent fixes and improvements. Until next time, commanders!

Dust Fleet v4.8

(Released 20th April 2024)

CHANGES

The game will no longer automatically minimize when you alt-tab away from it, making for a smoother desktop experience.
The taskbar executable icon has been updated.

FIXES

When given an order involving a specific ship part (eg a turret or landing pad) ships are unable to proceed if the target was destroyed or removed after the order was created.
Fixes for some minor cleanup errors when ships were destroyed in certain circumstances.
Some users were experiencing errors with the Epic overlay. These should now be corrected with this release.

Dust Fleet v4.9

(Released 22nd April 2024)

FIXES

When saving a game while capturing, the saved game may become invalid.
When saving a game during a mission-related APC docking, the progress bar may become stuck or instantly complete when reloaded later.
Error when loading a saved game from the latter half of mission "Eyes".

Dust Fleet v4.10

(Released 23rd April 2024)

FIXES

Unable to close the "low power" notification manually.
More improvements for edge case situations around loading saved games.
When merging fleets, the merged fleet may sometimes be called "new fleet" instead of using the custom names for any of the fleets being merged.

Feedback on current version

Hello. This is the first time I've played the game since launch (purchased at launch) since I've been waiting for the game to mature a bit. Steam tells me I'm about six hours in, and I'm going to take a break having not completed my first sector assault. Here's some things that I've observed. 1. The tutorial was amazing and fun. I'd worry that my wife would put me on the sofa permanently if the sector assault offered the same experience. Things that were fun about the tutorial: -Challenging -Smaller ma...

Refinery Burst Processor?

Does anyone know how this works? I had a mining station with two refineries that was bringing in 1000 x 2 per month, and I replaced one of the refineries with the Refinery Burst Processor which I thought was an upgrade because of the placement in the tech tree, and my refining output actually went down. What is the purpose of this module? Is it to be used with something like the Resource Generator, essentially giving the player a free 600 units of resources without costing more power? That's how I see it...

Mobile refineries and mining ships?

I'm planning on giving the game a try this weekend. Watching a few players on YT and trying to learn a bit as I can. When you build a station in a sector, do you have to build the mining ships and the mobile mining stations? Looks to me like players build a station, then a refinery and let it go at that. Where do you use the mining ships and the mobile platform where the mining ships return the ore? Thanks!...

Bug: Some captured ships do not take orders, persists across turns, refits and saves

Summary Some ships captured in a story mission do not take orders. Right clicking does not start the move command and they never move. Other commands do also nothing. There might be an issue with the mission scripting. I have a savegame with a broken ship if that helps. Details I had in my fleet 4 captured Wolfs and a Tokara. I think I captured them all in the same story mission (not sure which one but I think it was the one before Phaeton, I had the issue there). They do not move or ta...

Dust Fleet v4.7

Apr 19

Hello commanders. Just a couple of small updates today for some recently reported issues. Some commanders reported ships going missing while combining fleets. That issues should now be resolved with this update, but please do post any issues you see to the Discord[discord.gg] or to the discussion board here on Steam.

Onto the patch notes!

FIX: Ships disappearing when fleets merging
FIX: If the console is brought up accidentally, the keyboard shortcut closes it correctly but the "hide" command does not.
FIX: Various issues with the fleet sidebar on the starmap, including with selection and scrolling.

That's all for today. Take care out there, commanders!

Absolutely addicting and amazing game from a very involved and responsive developer. Highly recommended! Easy to get started, hard to master kind of strategy.
