GUYS ITS HAPPENING! Let's make a "Guild" movie together!!!! Sign up now at this link to be alerted when our Kickstarter is live: launchoracle.com/r/z1jIAAwe Excited to see the gang back together with your help! #reunion'd

Our crew on the @Space_Station caught a glimpse of the @NASAArtemis II crew as they re-entered the atmosphere from their journey to the Moon! We first saw a bright light and a trail as the service module burned up. We didn’t see the Orion capsule itself as it re-entered, but we saw the wispy trail it left behind in the upper atmosphere. Overjoyed that our friends are safely back on Earth after their awe-inspiring mission!

Splashdown confirmed! Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team on an exciting tenth flight test of Starship!

@TylerSeevers @AndrewCGower There is a Storage Rift spell you can unlock to deposit stuff without going to each separate deposit box brightershoreswiki.org/w/Storage_Rift

@AndrewCGower Thank you! Also, can we change the banking system? Maybe I haven’t unlocked it yet but the way storage works so far, is awful. It’s way too complicated. I really rather have a universal banking system in specific spots rather than a bank for each skill specifically.

Plan to merge the combat professions We are planning on changing how combat progression works. There will be single combat profession shared across all episodes, and we are going to introduce combat 'upgrade trees'. steamcommunity.com/games/2791440/…

@ver_jens70598 @AndrewCGower That's not a bug. Those are passive xp pots, used for passive methods. You have to use regular active xp pots for regular active methods.

@AndrewCGower BUGG: Look at exp pot for a hour they dont give the extra exp like it says!

Brighter Shores Patch Notes 20th Nov 2024 QOL - Make Hopeport hairdresser able to change your entire appearance (not just your hair). I know this doesn't thematically make sense, but its the quickest way to get this feature in to the game :) - Change bone spikes to require, and be boosted by, hand rakes (matching the animation). - Show damage numbers when watching other players doing combat. - Make 'use item' the default action on the reagent preparation station. Graphics - Tweak combat flinch outlines a little more. Bug fixes - Fix various typos. - Fix brown cow leather offcuts icons to show the correct graphic. - Use correct icon for grade 2 sickle. - Fix Daguer to tell you the correct level requirement for the first cape. - Fix incorrect "Not enough backpack space" message when equipping potions. - Bug fixes to 'cast net' fish, they no longer vanish or appear incorrectly when other players are using them. - Fix passive combat to show damage numbers, flinch outlines, and not to hide other players in the same room.

@MarkieMoooo @AndrewCGower Those only work for passive methods. You have to use the regular potions for regular methods.

@AndrewCGower I think the extended XP pots are bugged, the xp number shown and added to the profession is the best with the potion active or not.

Brighter Shores Patch Notes 17th Nov 2024 Just some bugfixes that couldn’t wait until Monday. Many thanks to the ppl who reported them. - Fixed bug with detective crime den raids. - Fixed bug with shops. - Fixed bug with cockroach mandibles.

@AndrewCGower Restarting the game client reminded me, very minor but it'd be nice if the window remembered its size/position. Got to drag it to a different monitor and maximize each time.

Brighter Shores Patch Notes 13th Nov 2024 Quality of life improvements - Added a quit button to the title screen. - Combat keybinds can now also be used to choose your initial attack on the "Prepare for battle" interface. - A lot more interfaces can now be closed by clicking outside of them. - Make the first action for cast net fishing 'solo' instead of 'co-op'. Bug fixes - Fixed a bug that prevented a few people from completing the "Help Rachella" section of the Main Story in episode 4. - Fixed a bug that prevented a few people from joining the merchant guild despite delivering the required items. - Disallowed drinking of forensics potions :P - Fixed overlapping text on player cards. - Fixed missing scrollbar on invitations inbox interface. - Fixed settings interface sometimes overlapping the interface below. - Fixed chat input popup showing a cut off direct messages tab. - Fixed inputbox caret disappearing when inputbox was very small. - Fix safe spots in Bear Clearing, the Bear Behind, and the Two Headed Bear Clearing. - Map fix (missing jigsaw symbol in Mysterious Cave). - Improve route finding of large npcs. - Fixed various typos. - Fix bug in 'lost and found' quest where you could skip part of the quest. Audio - Adjust default music volumes slightly.

@Jordsettles @AndrewCGower They're also all being copied onto the wiki, similar to the rs wikis brightershoreswiki.org/w/Game_updates

@AndrewCGower Wait, one more thing which kinda doesn't fit into any of this. Can we get your updates kept somewhere like on the Fen Research/Brighter Shores website - so we can refer back? I don't really wanna be on X but I re-downloaded purely to see Brighter Shore updates from your acc.

What should I improve about Brighter Shores next?

I’m equal parts blown away by what @SpaceX accomplished this morning but also with THIS LIVE 4K PRODUCTION the Everyday Astronaut / @considercosmos team produced! These shots live… unbelievable 🤯 just wait till we get our slow mo compilation up 👀 #starship #flight5 #IFT5

"Good, our first catch of the day!" OMG!

Starship Flight 5: Featuring Booster 12 Tower Catch There are no words. 📸 - @NASASpaceflight 📺 - youtube.com/watch?v=YC87Wm…

I think we're on replay 15. Here's a few I slapped together from the livestream. Can't ever get bored of this!

Mechazilla has caught the Super Heavy booster!

HOLY SHITBALLS THEY CAUGHT IT!

@xTryHeart Wouldn't even need that. The credits is a map you can load in the level editor, select the orb, change name, and save. Actually getting it updated though, yea prob not happening since Jordan's been burnt out after porting to a new engine version for the ps5 release on his own.

I've wondered whether I could use a Unity decompiler/unpacker or whatever, find my deadname, update it and send the new version to them so all they had to do was like, run a file comparison to verify I'd only made the one change, but I dunno if I could blunder my way through it,,

Shout out to @PlaytonicGames for asking backers whether they want to update their name in the credits of Yooka-Replaylee (and crediting the OG backers). kickstarter.com/projects/playt… I wish I could do this in Distance but I felt bad about asking @refractstudios to do it at this point..

@SchpeltigerSoul @refractstudios Check the medal icons on each map in the campaigns, look for one that doesn't have a white diamond icon on it 🔷 That's the one you'll need to redo (& make sure you don't have any Options->Cheats enabled).

@refractstudios Hey is there any place we can report bugs for the playstation version? Also is there anyone having trouble unlocking the Nexus campaign?

Distance is now available on PlayStation! ✨ store.playstation.com/en-us/concept/…

MY THIRD ALBUM “SMILE! :D” IS OUT EVERYWHERE NOWWW!!! FIRST AND FOREMOSTTT thank you so much to my fans for riding for me and for being the perfect muse for an entire album — u gave me something to write about. Love you guys (listen to the last song) and finally thank you to PORTER ROBINSON I am your biggest fan

@KassyFox7 @refractstudios The Adventure campaign is just the tutorial. The main meat of the game is in Arcade->Sprint.

One more day! Are you playing on PS4 or PS5?

@KassyFox7 Research is one of the simpler ones - just a clean deathless run will get you diamond. It's just one of the longer maps, so it might take a few more tries.
