Brains
How do I eat brains?
Use a knife to butcher a head. It now produces a Bone and a Brain. The brain retains the DNA and inscription of the head, so you know whose it was.
There is no 3D model for the brain yet. It appears as the default bolt-cube model.
Server Deadlock
A server deadlocked last night.
I was happy to trap this one. There have been a number of server crashes recently that could not be traced because the computers were too far gone by the time I got to them. This one crashed on a beefy computer with tons of memory.
The bug was definitely the cause of the deadlock last night and it probably was not the first time. The bug was created while integrating the new animal DNA.
Stock Limit Bug
The stock limit seems to have no effect on some manufacturing processes.
Fixed a bug that affected processes with only one shop enabled. The bug caused those processes to not show their stock limit, even though it was there.
FTL Drive Patents Cost
When patents were introduced, all of them were configured to take 5 minutes. My intent was to revisit the data to increase the time to develop various patents. I did not do this right away so as not to penalize long-time players who already had developed warp 9 but did not have the patents yet.
Time to run FTL patent development processes was increased.
When a creature dies, the Q of their meat and other parts is not consistent.
Creature body Q is now initialized based upon the animal resource Q of their origin world, or the body Q of their mother.
Creature body Q rises and falls after that, based upon the Q of the food eaten.
Juveniles
Juvenile gen4 creatures look like adults.
Fixed growth time calculation for gen4 creatures. A default human takes about 14 minutes to reach adulthood from birth. The failure to provide a reasonable number here (besides 1) was causing the body scale calculation to produce adult sized children.
Removed body hair from faces and underbodies of juveniles.
Changed selection of hair styles so juveniles are clean shaven and so they avoid baldness, which makes them look older.
