Patch Notes

• Improvements to colony physics and member rotation issues
• Added a new abilities hotbar with buttons for activating various cell abilities
• Spawn system now uses a bag approach that attempts to more fairly spawn from each category. This along with other spawn system tweaks should fix bugs with iron not spawning where it should.
• New iron chunk look
• Improved microbe membrane visuals
• Spawn rate is now reduced if the player is stationary
• AI run and tumble behaviour has been improved
• Key prompts now update the shown keys on keybinding change
• Fixed an organelle related crash in the editor which happened for example when undoing and re-placing the nucleus
• The help menu now uses compound icons and shows the current key bindings for actions referred to in it
• Added a save upgrade system that allows upgrading 0.5.4 saves to this version. If this is kept up to date we can hopefully keep save compatibility for a long time
• Fixed the ATP and health bars becoming stuck sometimes. Also ATP bar should now stay full better without quickly changing between being full and almost full.
• Fixed showing the blank keyprompt icon
• The ATP and health bars now remember the max values when the player dies, instead of reverting to showing the default values
• Tweaked AI to hopefully avoid cells spinning around in a position where they were trying to engulf a chunk
• Added audio output device selection to the options menu
• The AI is now much more likely to move immediately after spawning
• Processes can now run at fractional speed to allow running them for example when only a little bit of input compound or output space is available
• Added an option to disable the GUI light on the editor button. Please report if disabling this feature helps you if you previously experienced the bottom right of the microbe GUI sometimes having parts of it disappear
• There is now a separate icon for species in graphs when they go extinct entirely versus just from the current patch
• Changed rendering mode to multithreaded in Godot
• Auto-evo now models different energy sources better, which should result in better evolved species
• Unbinding ESC from actions is no longer possible as it was not possible to get that binding back
• Fixed a crash in mutations generation if the player entered a species name that contained a one letter word
• Dragging and dropping a save onto the game window will now load that save
• Improved the layout of the help menu texts, now they are again specified manually if they are in the left or right columns
• Undo and redo buttons are now disabled while moving an organelle
• Fixed organelles being marked as moved incorrectly if re-placed at their current location, allowing then to do a free proper move
• Fixed a crash happening if the load game menu was exited, re-entered and load pressed
• Fixed process panel not working correctly when the player had all organelles
• Fixed crash in duplicate player cheat after loading a save
• Changed the alignment of graph y-axis labels
• The same microbe ambiance track can now repeat, instead of always switching to the other one when one ended
• If save loading fails, the already loaded objects are now properly freed
• Player cell is properly reset to normal state after unbinding a cell in unbinding mode
• Entering the editor while in a colony should now be properly blocked, though it seems there is still a bug that can allow that
• Options menu now scales to content size
• Closing the pause menu with ESC when there are unsaved changes no longer happens
• Saving or loading is now prevented if already in progress, this fixes a crash with rapidly pressing the quick save and load buttons
• Pressing ESC in the options or load menu when opened from the main menu, now goes back to the main menu
• Slightly refactored the code for the tooltip system
• Fixed player species remove on extinction from list of species
• Fixed options menu tooltips not showing when accessing it from the pause menu
• Unbinding now always returns cells to normal state
• Spamming F1 no longer cycles the fun fact / tip in the help menu
• Compound amount labels in the GUI now update on language change
• The game now prints C# and Godot locale on startup
• Changed the order of game start prints to have more important information earlier in the logs
• Added some extra error handling to JSON converter types
• Reworked the compound names in translateable strings to allow overriding the default text, required by some languages to make sentences including compound names more natural.
• Game languages list is now loaded just once instead of always when opening the options menu
• Percentage values now use the translation system
• Freebuilding label in the MP bar now reacts to language change
• Updated translations
• Updated the used automatic checking tools version, added more documentation for developers regarding CI usage
• Added a helper script to reset current localizations from the master branch, hopefully useful to developers to resolve translation merge conflicts
• Added a helper script to build list of changed files locally, useful for people who haven't setup pre-commit to have faster automatic code checking
• Added helper script to clean out local Godot version, as it's known to automatically break
• Changes to our code style document and additional automatic checks to enforce these rules

Thrive 0.5.4

Binding agents are finally here. This release got delayed because they weren't ready. Now they are ready so time for a release, but we didn't have time and resources to fix all bugs regarding them.

Patch Notes

• Binding agents added. You can now form cell colonies with other cells
• Improved microbe AI. And fixed the AI being unable to fire toxins.
• The AI will now get tired of endlessly trying to hunt the same prey, instead they move on after chasing a while
• Fixed bug with glucose reduction not actually working. Glucose now decays properly over time. Fixed the editor compound graphs not displaying changes over time correctly.
• Updated to Godot 3.3.2. Fixes problem with exiting fullscreen not remembering the monitor. Fixes some physics errors.
• Renamed the appearance into the membrane tab
• The cell visuals along with the membrane are now shown in the editor when on the "membrane" tab
• The game now defaults to starting in fullscreen mode and only going windowed mode if selected in options (instead of doing the opposite). Hopefully encourages dedicated graphics to be preferred and fix some fullscreen entering bugs some people experienced.
• Tweaked compound cloud visuals. Still not perfect but they are a bit closer to the nice looking clouds of 0.3.4. Hopefully also resolves the clouds flashing issue.
• Organelle move cost is now reduced to 5 MP
• Fixed organelles disappearing if moving was attempted with not enough MP
• Changed the placeholder image file to be a transparent one. This avoids the problem in GLES2 mode with the Thrive logo being overlayed over the gameplay when a shader fails to compile.
• The loading screen now shows a randomized piece of art
• Added a button to cancel an in-progress organelle move in the editor
• Balance tweaks to storage, toxins, pili etc.
• Normal membrane now has a osmoregulation factor of 1. Other membrane factors were adjusted.
• Moving organelles placed in the current editor session is now free
• Tweaked mutations algorithm to make slightly larger cells
• Cytoplasm now has a dedicated model when it is used as a cell corpse chunk
• Organelle process tooltips now use bbcode to specify the contents. This allows translations to order things naturally, and also the tooltips now show actual keybinding values instead of just the default keys for actions.
• Improved organelle rotations when placed with symmetry on
• Fixed crash when spamming the editor button
• Fixed crash when rapidly spamming the next button in the editor
• Added a new cheat menu (F6) that has a few new cheats on top of the old ones
• Fixed a bug with all keys getting disabled if input rebinding was canceled
• The cell visuals are now only shown in the editor when you are on the cell editor tab
• Data graphs now recalculate min and max values based on shown datasets
• Flagellum tooltip now explains that the final direction it points out of a membrane affects the thrust direction
• Editor fade in now happens after the loading screen instead of before
• Switched the used noise library to better licensed one to allow different distribution channels in the future. This slightly affects the movement of compound clouds
• Membrane rigidity now has a visual influence on the amount the membrane wiggles. Different membranes now have different base wigglyness amounts.
• Improved the experience regarding turning the organelle place hover hex on after loading a save made in the editor
• Compound amounts now have a tooltip and icon in the patch details
• Light now works in the editor, slightly changing the visuals there. This makes organelles brighter in the editor. Improves the experience in GLES2 mode.
• Exiting the editor with disconnected hexes is no longer possible by exploiting the not enough ATP confirmation dialog
• Editor tooltips now react to language change
• Fixed editor graphs showing lines with insufficient data
• Rigidity slider tooltip now shows the middle value as +0 instead of 0. The tooltip also now displays the speed difference as percentage
• Editor hexes should no longer be bugged in GLES2 mode
• Environmental toxins now fade out instead of immediately popping out of existence when they are to be removed.
• Shot toxins now fade out properly instead of immediately disappearing entirely on hit

• Refactored custom theme out of microbe editor scene to a shared theme file
• Improved automatic code checks to even further help with automatic pull request reviews
• Internal refactoring on the organelle tooltips to make them easier to work with
• Build changes, we now recommend dotnet for building
• Updated code style guide

Thrive 0.5.3.1

This was originally planned to be the release with binding agents, but those haven't had progress done on them for a while, so here is a patch release with some important fixes that we didn't want to keep the players waiting for. The most important being the constant saving errors should be gone now (please open an issue if you still get saving errors), and we got a fix to the microbe AI being much worse than it should have been due to a small mistake in the code. This release also includes features that were done by this release.

• Pressing enter on the species name enter now defocuses the input field
• Fixed issues with some text not being translatable
• Updated translations
• General code repository related improvements

Thrive 0.5.3

Here's another regularly scheduled Thrive release. We talked about including binding agents in this release, but sadly the pull request for them (#1868) was not finished in time. Instead the plan is now to release 0.5.3.1 (https://github.com/Revolutionary-Games/Thrive/milestone/19) immediately once binding agents are done, along with whatever other changes that have been done by that point.

Thrive 0.5.1.1

We got quite a few crash reports for 0.5.1 so here is a quick bugfix release to hopefully fix the most common crashes.

Installation

For easiest installation, download the latest version of the launcher:
https://github.com/Revolutionary-Games/Thrive-Launcher/releases/

Alternatively, download the relevant file below for manual installation.

Patch Notes

• Fixed crash related to flagellum marine snow spawning. This seems to be the most likely crash to happen while swimming around in the stage.

Thrive 0.5.1

After the change to Godot we have now polished the experience a little bit, and along other things saving is back. This time it is proper saving, instead of working so that you'd only keep your organelles and respawn like in 0.3.4.

We hoped to get a little more features done for 0.5.1, but we decided to release now as the last few weeks have been slow. Hopefully this release will inspire people to get back to working on Thrive, or new people to join.

Thrive 0.5.0

The Godot version of Thrive is here!

We went ahead and changed engines again. This time the change was way faster thanks to the contributions of more active programmers than last time. Godot's usability also probably helped.
You can read about the reasoning behind this change here: https://forum.revolutionarygamesstudio.com/t/switching-to-godot/663

There are still quite many features that still don't work the same as before, but we are releasing this anyway as programming activity has slowed down. If you didn't contribute before because of the engine, now's the time to start contributing to Thrive.

Installation

For easiest installation, download the latest version of the launcher:
https://github.com/Revolutionary-Games/Thrive-Launcher/releases/

Alternatively, download the relevant file below for manual installation.

Patch Notes

• Thrive should now run on most (if not all) integrated Intel graphics
• Performance should be much better
• Added options menu
• Implemented zooming out in the editor
• Only useful compound bars are shown now
• Fixed background brightness
• Added full screen colour blind filters
• Clouds no longer have straight edges
• Microbe corpse chunks fallback to using the mitochondria model less
• Fixed choppiness of the videos
• Toxins now use particle effects
• Improved the look of the reproduction progress GUI elements
• Added fades to make transitions smoother
• Camera jitter when moving should be fixed

The list of new features is short this time as it took a lot of effort to reimplement all the existing features in Godot.

Thrive 0.4.3.1

For various reasons we are moving focus towards reimplementing Thrive in Godot. This means that we have to redo everything in the game, and that is going to take a while. Hopefully the move to Godot will attract many new developers. But in the meantime here is a smaller release with some features and fixed we managed to make after 0.4.3.

Due to the change of focus, there are some leftover issues in this release, from the attempt to change graphics engines again, which is now abandoned because of the focus on Godot. Most of these are related to the camera aspect ratio causing things to be slightly the wrong shape and affecting the cursor to world position math. This causes issues like the compounds under cursor display being slightly off as well as placing organelles in the editor to not match up with the cursor.

Thrive system requirements

Windows: Windows 7 or Windows 10. Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable is required. Intel integrated graphics have issues. We might explore another graphics engine change in the near future to resolve this
Linux: glibc 2.29 (you can recompile the game with older glibc). Recent graphics drivers. Nouveau drivers for Nvidia likely don't work.

Patch Notes

• The different membrane types now have different effects
• New cell button is now disabled when not in freebuild
• Pilus sound was adjusted
• Balancing was tweaked
• Engulfing your own species is now prevented properly
• Engulfing target's movement penalty has been increased
• The shown external effects on population when entering the editor are now grouped by type and species
• Undoing organelle placed on cytoplasm was fixed to properly restore the cytoplasm
• The editor hover hex is now hidden when mousing over the GUI
• Reduced movement jitter
• Updated win text

Thrive 0.4.3

Once again we have managed to stick to a 3-month release cycle. However, once again we had to cut some planned features from this release. Due to our lead designer leaving the project, we have not done much balancing for this release.
