Version 1.4.6: Ship research!

More player-established port tweaks and improvements! Player-built Shipwrights now let you research any ship type (for a fee). There are also some fun shield changes and a new slightly-less-easily-cheesed Salvage Station layout.

FEATURES

• You can now research ship types at player-established Shipwrights!

  • By disassembling a ship and paying its full value, you can learn how to build new ships of that type.

• Player-established ports now have occasional generic NPC visitors to chat with

• Fang Shield now inflicts mild poison to adjacent Blocked attackers

• Electro Shield now inflicts light electric damage to adjacent Blocked attackers

• Tall Grass now grants +20% Dodge to anyone standing in it

• Reworked Salvage Station layout (NOTE: only applies to games that have not yet visited the Salvage Station!)

  • Enemies start farther away and spawn in smaller amounts during initial waves

  • Newly spawned enemies are positioned to be harder to immediately push off the platform

• Added "Total Stars Spent" indicator to top right of Class Window
