Frackin Universe 4.18.0 (for Starbound 1.1.1)

4.18.0

• Nerfed the living hell out of the proto bow. It behaves about what I intended for it to be now. Essentially you still get the blobs but no liquid and you lose the equal-damage secondary explosion. It is no longer the OP god of all bows.
• Removed headcrab and caterpillar from circulation. They were busted and didn't fit in anyhow. We'll be making more monsters instead to replace them :)
• Mechspiders got updated to the new format, and are no longer 1.5 times larger. Their projectiles should keep you on your toes, too.
• Fixed and changed Shadowtops. They now have their own sounds and whistle, and a different attack set.
• Mushroom now unlocks shockshroom, rather than mushroom seeds (which dont drop). You can now access that entire branch of plants.
• Fixed and changed Spider Walkers. They are now variants of triplods
• Hailstrike got a just-because upgrade to its rebound projectiles
• Hailstrike has a tougher recipe to suit its awesome status
• Mini-rocket launchers touched up some more. NOW they are AWESOME. They also have adjusted recipes and new tiers.
• Type-S Survival Pack appears in the MA where it belongs
• Imperius Minigun damage scaling corrected
• Adjusted Collections UI for FU elder paintings
• Re-added rangedAimTime fix for NPCs. This should make their ranged attacks more lethal and less likely to consistently miss you, since they properly aim before attempting to fire.
• NPCs will track you further
• Adjusted a couple NPC loadouts.
• Wild algae seeds are planted more commonly on Fungal and Bog biomes (from 35% to 55% on bog, from 0 to 50% on fungal)
• X10 shield appears in the shields tab
• Reworked sprite for Doom Spirit
• Elder cage graphics updated

NEW UI:

• New crafting interface added for FU crafting stations. More will be coming in the pipe as I get time to work on them.

Frackin Universe 4.17.0 (for Starbound 1.1.1)

4.17.0

• needlers are properly one-handed
• dimensional repeater is properly one-handed
• Carbon armor is now named Evader and has a set-bonus to make it worthwhile to craft. It's stats also scale a bit higher (t3 -> t4) than before.
• X10 armor chest no longer produces annoying orange border with its effect
• Slight nerf to X10 armor power bonuses
• X10 armor given set bonus
• fission furnace ores smelt a little faster
• proper status effect added to Gemglow farmable produce
• all materials have proper categorization
• added text to the pre-completion phase of the new tech quests since apparently something changed in 1.1.1 that makes my previous method annoying with a blank popup.
• Hydroponics Tray should properly produce silk fibre rather than silk when growing Bracken
• Large Power Sensor display corrected
• Lumivine, Gemglow corrected
• Microwave Ray has a new alt fire
• Mini missile launchers got somewhat of a makeover, in regards to alt-fire
• added new Weather types to take advantage of new Stable code

NEW Object: Survival Tent

• This sweet darling will prevent you from dying or being affected by weather related effects while within. Downside being that you are then stuck in a tent. But you aren't dead! yay! Handy to survive nasty storms.

(testing) FU 5.0.1-alpha for Starbound 1.1.1 Unstable

FU with Starbound Unstable 1.1.1 support. Do not attempt to use with Starbound Stable 1.1. This is for testing. We will make a full release once 1.1.1 goes Stable.
Now updated with crash-to-desktop fix.

Frackin Universe 4.16.3 (for Starbound 1.1)

4.16.3

• updated weather to 1.1.1 format. This should solve the inability to visit planets with weather present (all of them!)
  • "appliesWeatherStatusEffects" -> *.monstertype
  • Bees and beetles -> unaffected by weather
  • sandstormslow.projectile -> sandstorm statusEffect
  • Add wet statuseffect to wet FU weather
  • liquid poison weather -> ambient weakpoison statusEffect
• updated Electron Microscope sprite
• This adds output nodes to various lab equipment for connection to WIred Industry's item routing objects. They will try to store items via these connections, falling back on internal storage. If there's not enough room there, behaviour varies: the station may spawn items, it may go idle or it may discard what it can not store.
• The centrifuge scripts are reformatted and reworked enough to allow merging as per above

Frackin Universe 4.16.2 (for Starbound 1.1)

4.16.2

• Emergency fix: Bad moneyValue in .questtemplate file caused crash to desktop.

Frackin Universe 4.16.1 (for Starbound 1.1)

4.16.1

• More tech adjustments/additions. Not live yet. Don't equip non-enabled ones to yourself unless you are using a throwaway character you won't miss. These will change and will probably break characters when they are adjusted.
• Fixed Extreme Pressure Immunity effect.
• The Lootening: a bunch of loot changes in dungeons and microdungeons
• Fixed up some errors in some microdungeons, replaced missing objects and doors and adjusted tileset references
• Adjusted sub-biomes on vanilla worlds to clear out some "meh". Hives should be substantially rarer to come across now, removing their too-common status once and for all! Hell-Hives shouldn't appear at all under tier 3 anymore through all vanilla biomes.
• Cotton now turns to Mimicry in the Xeno Lab, rather than Energy. Mimicry was much too rare.
• Proto-Gun wasn't unlocking along with the pistol. Now it is. Pick up some protocite.
• Changed Proto-Gun operation somewhat
• Adjusted Miner Gun damage and energy use
• Adjusted mountainous biomes. You'll find variants of their terrain now to bring even more variety. Also, no more annoying Bulbops on them, because that monster type can die in a fire for all eternity.
• Reduced absorbed liquid in tile interactions
• Several new techs have been enabled. Their unlocks are a secret, but you'll know when you find them. To obtain them, however, you must first have all the basic techs available via the vanilla games Outpost tech quests.
• Reptilian armor can now only be crafted once you hit a Primeval biome. It requires either a dino egg or reptile scales (new) to unlock and craft. Both only appear on primeval biomes.
• Most techs removed from Science Outpost missions in favor of other ways to access them now being implemented. You can still get all the same techs... you simply are not forced into doing quests in order to obtain them in the first place.

PAK has been updated to fix crash-to-desktop.

Frackin Universe 4.16.0 (for Starbound 1.1)

4.16.0

NEW STATION:

... and you are going to love it. Pick up a Matter Assembler to unlock the recipe): The Lab Directory. You set this puppy down in your base, and then use it. It will tell you what you need to produce various goods. Try it out. It's hefty to craft, but worth the effort.

Frackin Universe 4.15.2 (for Starbound 1.1)

• more Lunari rifle projectile adjustments. Also slightly increased its energy use to give it more punch.
• Nitrogen Sea parallax bug corrected (was using a non-existent asset due to renames recently)
• Ice and Shadow crabs can now be captured
• Liquid Nitrogen is a bit more transparent
• fungal biome got some changes to decorative plants, bushes etc (surface and underground)
• added additional day/night color selections to fungal biomes
• corrected recipes pointing to the incorrect tag in the worktable. They were set to "decorative" rather than "decoration". You should again see those recipes listed.
• several new types of combo/attacks are present on some weapons (melee). Only a few are represented so far, but more will be coming. Lunari Sword, Lunari Spear, Coral Dull Blade, Shadowburst and a few others got some love. The lunari sword is bad-ass now.
• fixed an exploit involving ebon blocks/ebon shards
• reduced range on wubstem sound from 15 to 3 tiles. Hopefully this makes farming them less annoying. If not, I'll simply remove the sound from planted versions of the seed and leave the wubbing to the wild.

Frackin Universe 4.15.1 (for Starbound 1.1)

4.15.1

• Lunari Rifle is no longer a useless hunk of garbage and poop

• Wizard Hat got a change in ability

• Updated the Science Outpost with the newer stations

• Added new Med Bay Bed sprites

  • You can unlock this by picking up (or crafting) an Extraction Lab

• Most buff durations increased from produce
