Back on topic - again - I wonder if those giant, root-like things could have something to do with that humongous tree I've seen in Lost River concept art:

What I didn't have time to come back and post yesterday was similar to Calarand's comment...I don't have time to play through every new update and pick out the changes. I doubt I would have noticed the changes such as reflections, etc. I appreciate Coranth's nitpicky OCD observational skills which make me further appreciate what the devs have accomplished.
I also don't personally care how many threads, what they're called, etc. But sure, I suppose one thread makes sense. I've always found Coranth's contributions here to be worth the time it takes to read them.
Trello Bites: They're gearing up for XBOX Update 1 on June 16; there's an "Update Website" being worked on. Also as of four hours ago there's another card "Emperor - Pathing Rig Update"; something to do with Animation, how the Sea Emperor moves, I think. Additionally, they're working on the Baby Sea Emperor, trying to scale down the existing huge one. They're also working on a connecting corridor between Deep Grand Reef and Lost River Bones field.
............
And LobsterPhone... just go away. Seriously. Even if you did attempt to "argue" with me via PM, I'd just block you.

Coranth, I am appalled at your truly negligent oversight regarding the Baby Sea Emperor. You fight to mention that they're MAKING IT CUUUUUUUTE! Forgetting the most important cuteness aspect...geez...you feeling ok?
I am having trouble understanding why someone who hates a thread so much, spends so much time reading it ... But hey ... what do I know? (looking at you Lobster)
@yomama I totally want to cuddle with that baby Sea Emperor ... maybe ...
I have not seen any mention here (it might be in an older thread) of the upcoming Sea Dragon Leviathan which will apparently have the capability of just swallowing us whole while we sit inside of our sea moths! HELLO!? This place isn't scary as hell enough already?!

"Alternatively, the Sea Dragon Leviathan grab the Seamoth with its hands, and shove it inside its mouth, regardless if the player is in or not."
A new Card, "Fix / Improve gamepad equipment navigation" has been made; maybe navigating through the PDA/Inventory with a Gamepad is slow or buggy and needs a fix? I won't link this one as there's nothing of interest on the card itself. Update: This Card is done!
As I said, not much, but they're chipping away at it all...

Thanks for this Coranth it completely slipped passed me. I thought I scoured this page and trello for more info on the Xbox one update.. I do it almost religiously lol that card must have been just before I learned of trello.

Tell y'all what, I'm absolutely tickled to see all the whiz-bang neato (that's one of them technology terms, so I'm told) stuff the fine folks at UWE are adding rapid fire over the last week or so.
So any idea if we'll get a PC update in June? Or are they focusing solely on getting XBox up to where PC is?
Unsure about this. Remember, nothing on the Trello can be taken as absolute. The XBOX One Update was meant for June 16 but that day has passed. The Card is 70% done, though.
Its hard to tell when the next update will be, as its gonna be a huge one that will really change the gameplay. anyone that tried the Exosuit lately knows how much more fun it is to play the game with it. Personally, its to the point that i have a hard time to appreciate the game as much as i did without it now.
The Exosuit, the new compartment in the aurora housing it and a much reworked Inactive/Active Lava Zone will be something major! As with all past huge update, i want them to take their time and deliver us something well made that you feel they took their time to ''polish'' rather than urge something out for the sake of not missing some kind of deadline
The Card "Builder, Scanner should use battery" has been moved from "To Do" back to "Doing"; so they are going to do this one, I think. Additionally a Card, "Scanner tool should use batteries" was Archived, as it's a duplicate.
Update: Oh, crap. It's done. No more free Building, Scanning, and Terraforming. Wow. This may add a whole new dynamic to how the game is played, as we'll have to prioritize what we build and scan until we can build the Battery Chargers...
Update 2: Not in-game, yet, but I'm banking it'll be in the next build we get.
Makes you think about Scan Time vs Battery Power as well as Build Time vs Battery Power, too... wow. To think such a small thing might have a tremendous impact on how we play! "I know what I want to build but what do I need to?" "Do I have enough power stored in my current battery to build/scan X or should I leave it for Y until I get another?" Stuff like this. Damn...
Ah, found some new Cards here, a Card for a Damaged Exosuit. Either this is what happens over time to the Exosuit as it's damaged while we're wearing it, or this'll be fragments of what we find in game to scan to make it! Wow! This one's 86% Done.
Additionally, another beautiful plant for the Lost River, Lost River Plant 04, about 88% Done.
Also a final card, Lost River Cove Tree 01; about half-done. Nothing of any real interest there except the checklist; highpoly, lowpoly, textures and materials checked off.
Criticism is all fine, but only if it is constructive AND if you know when to stop, just saying...
Back on topic - again - I wonder if those giant, root-like things could have something to do with that humongous tree I've seen in Lost River concept art:
Just checked--it's in game, now, in experimental: The Scanner, Builder, and Terraformer now need batteries. Prioritize what you scan and build until you get the Battery Charger.Addendum: Scanner doesn't use much battery power at all, neither does the builder I'm betting.
Update: Having trouble moving about the wrecks; seem to be getting stuck against invisible things. Laser-cutting sealed doors is wonky again. Look for doors in wrecks that have green lights; not properly implemented; when you click on them they slide up instead of properly opening.
Update: Another game update, 51MB this time, comes down after playing just now! Devs have fires lit under their arses!
Oooh boy, that's reminding me of how I had to live with just corridors and etc for my base for a while when that bug popped up preventing certain components (Scanner Room, MultiPurpose, etc) from being built.
I suppose it'd be converted into something we have to find and scan, perhaps the ones from the Floater Island bases like the Living Wall, Observatory, and so forth currently are.

Don't worry about him, we love your stuff and it's already gotten a lot better. Keep it up and just ignore him

I am planning the "sea moth spike ball protection armor upgrade" (tm) in me head as I type this!
The Card "Builder, Scanner should use battery" has been moved from "Doing" to "To Do"; IMHO they might backlog this and leave things as is???
A new Card, "Fix / Improve gamepad equipment navigation" has been made; maybe navigating through the PDA/Inventory with a Gamepad is slow or buggy and needs a fix? I won't link this one as there's nothing of interest on the card itself. Update: This Card is done!

"Here Sea Emperor! Here boy!"
***CHOMP***
"Rats... it... wasn't... the.... cute.... on.... *gurgle-glub-glub-glub*

Again thanks !
I think the Sea Dragon would just pop theM both into its mouth like a couple of chicken nuggets and be merrily on its way

I, for one, cannot wait to see all this in game!
"What is the sound of One Trello Updating?"
Damn, the Cove Tree~
Wrong artwork.

Yep! Awesome to see all this stuff happening in real time / right under our noses!
[sarcasm]I know, right! How cool is that?[/sarcasm] "I looked into its Deadline. And I wanted to be there..."
